re: ~Official~ March 2013 Due Date Thread

Quoting 5plusone:" Jess - thats part of what Im worried about. I eat - but its scattered because I just cant stand the smell of food - and Im not ever "HUNGRY". "

My dr doesn't seem to be too concerned about it. I did the same thing with my first daughter and she came out almost 8 lbs  

Quoting Mommy of 4 little boys:" Caris will be a month old Saturday! Her daddy and I are seeing improvements every week. Her nurses keep making adorable pictures of her for us."

Awesome, glad she is doing good. Dylan is a month on Tues, still working on eating.

My pelvis feels like its deteriorating!! I'm not dilated.. I'm sleepy with some sort of sinus infection or something..I keep having the overwhelming desire to clean but can barely move.. and I'm stressed to the max and ready to kick hubby.. although I'm not a hundred percent sure why... Sigh .. sorry I needed to rant a little.. still soooo much more in my head

Quoting Dylan Jo's mommy:" Awesome, glad she is doing good. Dylan is a month on Tues, still working on eating."

Caris still has a feeding tube and oxygen. But her Daddy and I see improvments in her everyday!

Has anyone else developed the lovely "dead leg" syndrome yet - Mine started this weekend while we were out grocery shopping - there I am trying to "pretend" that Im glowing and just LOVE being pregnant - when all of a sudden my entire right leg goes numb - and Im standing in the toilet paper aisle - half dragging it and half shaking it trying to get feeling back - think wet dog - wounded leg

Yes! For the past 3 days my entire right thigh goes tingly and numb as soon as I stand up in the morning and sometimes the toes on that foot too.

thank you  

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE back pain all last night - and now this morning I have already made 4 trips to the bathroom with diahrea.... *sigh*

DH sold his motorcycle for $1500 a few months back (I kinda made him do it because someone I know had just died on a bike & his cousin was in a bad accident that could've taken his life). He let me use $250 of that money (I told him it was purely his money since it was purely his bike) to buy the rest of the kinda little things we still needed for Alba. So I went crazy at Babies R Us and bought a Prince Lionheart seat saver (DH is crazy OCD about the leather seats in the Pilot getting dented), her changing pad, 2 changing pad covers, Aveeno baby shampoo & lotion, a baby first aid kit (it was 50% off), a rectal/mouth/armpit thermometer with disposable covers, emery boards for her nails, headbands, and some cute outfits that were 50% of their clearance price (super score on those). I spent $190 on all that crap.

The biggest and best purchase I made was the breast pump at Target. I got the Medela Pump In Style Advanced Tote, which is normally $300. I paid $40. WOOT WOOT. Lol. Target price-matched Amazon's price for it (which was $212) & then I used $175 in gift cards that I'd been saving (from our housewarming party in October & all my baby showers combined), so I only paid $40 out of pocket.

The only thing we still need is an extra base for her car seat. But I can't find them ANYWHERE for cheaper than $80 (it's the Britax B-Safe base).  

Way to go on the awesome shopping trip!
