Welcome Back, TGal -- we missed you! Hey, can you go back to Oz and get me that double Bob stroller? Please. Pretty please. Pretty pretty pretty please. Thanks, mate! And I hear you on not wanting a shower, but like Tacori says, you will definitely be glad that you had one. I hate things like that too (didn''t have a bach party or bridal shower), but baby showers are sort of necessary, in my opinion. Plus since you hate shopping, you''ll really appreciate having other people get all that stuff for you!
Jas, I''m sure you look adorable even though you don''t feel it right now. Take lots of photos now because once you have the baby, it''s so weird to look back at photos of yourself pregnant and then look down at your baby and be like "Really?! You? In me?!" I think the weirdest thing for me right now is that pregnancy feels like it was a lifetime ago, and it''s only been four weeks since I had the babies. Time really gets all warped during pregnancy (feels like it last 40 months, not 40 weeks at times) and after!
As for changing table, we stuck a changing pad on a dresser in the nursery, but we haven''t even used it yet -- we just use the pack-and-play changing table since that''s what they''re sleeping in right now, and convenience is utmost for us right now! The most important thing iisn''t what you change them on, it''s having everything that you need nearby -- diapers, wipes, wipes, and more wipes, a waterproof cloth to line whatever you''re changing them on, and a diaper pail or trash can.
For the moms, do you ever wonder/worry what your baby''s first words will be based on what you say all the time when they''re infants? I swear Gabe''s first words are going to be either "no hands!" (he''s a grabber) or "big mouth!" (trying to get him to open his mouth wider) because that''s what I say to him all the time when he''s nursing. Re: the grabbing ... any advice?! I was telling Q that I''m going to come up with some type of baby handcuffs to restrain them because the grabbing at the boob makes me nuts!!
Oh, and we started using the Johnson and Johnson''s lavender bedtime bath products, and they work! The babies smell like heaven, and they get a really good sleep after their baths now. I wish I could bathe them about eight times a day so they''d sleep that well all day long too!
Sounds like all you preggos are doing well
Jess and Qtiekiki, ahhh, it''s so cute hearing you guys at the beginning stages of being pregnant! Such an exciting time! And the u/s are so fun at that stage! And for all you 2nd and 3rd trimester mommies ... it''s coming up quick!!
Hey Tacori, did you ever get your push present ring??
