Hi All!
Sorry I've been MIA, but we've been just insanely swamped with moving this past weekend.

But...I wanted to let y'all know we found out we're having a...BOY! Yay!! We're both really excited. Woot! Everything looked great on U/S, too (heart, kidneys, brain, etc.)

Here are a couple of pics of our new home. We bought the condo on the first floor.

Woohoo! That's exactly what I thought. I wouldn't even WANT the whole house. Can you imagine cleaning the whole thing plus maintaining the exterior?? Ugh

I won't know that till July, I can ask at my June appt. but she told me I'll know that at 28 weeks. She only told me it will be when I'm 37 weeks. When I know, you'll know, I promise!

Hib, lol at least you can say it's your house but I agree, too much to keep up with! Absolutely fabulous!!!

Mm..... Hope Braxton Hicks and pains subside soon hun. Have you bought anything much for baby Charlie yet?

Hibiscus.... Congrats on your little prince! We are all having boys so far! Lol Lovely house btw..... Congrats!

Gg...... Good luck at your scan tomorrow. Be sure to update us as soon as you can.

Littleaurora..... Lovely pics! I so wonder if you are having a boy or a girl! Any feelings or intuition either way?

Devi..... How are you and baby pandu? I bet you'll even the score and have a girl!

2016..... How's the injured hand? Naughty horsy!!!! Can't believe how fast you seem to be catching us all up! Are you still feeling sick etc?

Joli..... How's the pelvic pain? Hope you and bump are well.

Ladybird..... How are you hun?

Mum and I are off to Eastgate Retail Park tomorrow in Bristol (Dad is babysitting!) as they have a Mamas and Papas, Mothercare and Next. Not to mention Pizza Hut for lunch! I LOVE baby shopping!!!!!

Today I bought my youngest Jack his first pair of Clarks cruiser shoes as he's pulling himself up on furniture and wanting to walk everywhere holding my hands. He's sooooo nervous though bless him. He's 15 months now so a bit behind my eldest son Finlay who walked at 12 months. He's sooooo cute though..... A proper cuddly baby boy who would happily spend the day snuggled up next to me.

I'm getting conscious about the amount of weight I'm putting on so am thinking about joining a local pregnancy yoga class on a Monday eve. Apparently it can really help keep you supple, fit and improve your stamina and breathing ready for labour. Anyone else do it?!

I know but I have a history of preterm labor, so I have to keep an eye on things.

We have some things, not much. DH will be giving me $ soon to go shopping for the bulk of it. I went looking around, I can get all the gear for less that $450. Waiting till after the shower to buy anything else. BFF from high school is coming to the baby shower and she's bringing me a ton of boy clothes, 12 mos. and up. Haven't seen her in 15 years, so I'm really excited!

I'm also waiting till July to order the rest of his cloth diapers, I want to be well stocked on those!

I'll post pics of things as we get them!

Gdiapers have their baby bundle back in stock!!! YAY! Thats very exciting for me!

I saw those BUT for the price of those, I can get 12 prefolds.

These aren't bad, all in ones, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Kushies-Reusable-Ultra-Diapers-for-Infants-5-Pack/4601012

I might order some of those for night time. They already have a liner, and I can use a PF as a doubler.

 

[ClaireNicole]

I knowwwwww But you pay for convience right?? Because its cheaper to buy a cow then it is to buy milk lol and once you have them bought the flushies are only pennies more then disposables... and you can get cloth. I need the option because OH refuses to use cloth... so the flushies are the compromise! Plus I think its probably an investment... You can sell them on ebay for just as much as you could buy them for new. Its CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!! So If I hate them... or when the baby grows out of them... then I can sell them back! YAY!

 

[MommyMichele]

Good point.

The Kushies I think are super convenient, toss the whole thing in the wash and you can use a liner with them hun.

 

[ClaireNicole]

I wish! But we won't have a washing machine untill next March!!!

 

[MommyMichele]

You can take them to the laundry mat! It's not illegal!

 

[ClaireNicole]

omg yeah but 13 a day?!?!? that would be crazy! We're certainly looking into all the options!

No, you just get enough to last you 2-3 days, then wash. BUT you could always hold off till March and maybe your DH will be sick of sposie smells by then!
