Oh! and take the antibiotics (all of them even if you start to feel better!!!!) gosh, I sound like a mom, huh? TINA, I do need to chill out lately, right? ha ha...it's like I hit these patches of anxiety that last about a week and then I'm more chilled for a while. Oh! I put my changing table together this morning, it is so pretty! I put all of the things I've gotten so far in it (it's got 2 large shelves under the changing table part) so now I am going to tackle the crib today or this weekend if work permits. It's pretty simple I think. Only bummer is that once it is all together I'm going to want to start decorating (bedding, wall hangings), etc. but that will all have to come later after the showers in May. Once I get it done I'll take pics and put them on piczo!

STEF - that is so exciting about your changing table. It is totally normal to have those waves of anxiety I just like teasing you about worry being your religion! you know I love you --- I still haven't gotten to my b___st feeding book but I will and let all of you know the name of it for you first timers - hey Kolleen - vicodin is ok I had to take it when I had kidney stones - it helped and I had quite a few left over and STEF is right anti biotics are great especially if they help you feel better - dont' worry I had to take antibiotics for my bladder a few times already don't worry.

OMG IM 24 WEEKS TODAY!!!!!!! im getting so excited. i just wish i had room to be putting stuff for the baby. our apartment is so tiny that i dont have room for anything. im really sad about it. i have a crib but no room for it so i cant even buy the bedding for it. no where to put it. AHHHHHH!!! one day soon we will move. we have to wait till i graduate school first so we can get in to a house. but i wanna go buy some stuff!!!

kolleen_caudillo - March 14

my baby girl is usually at 132-136. is there a difference in boys and gilrs heart rate?

 

cors1wfe - March 14

I think the heartbeat is an old wives tale that usually isn't true according to my doctor.

morning girls...i wasn't able to get on the computer at all yesterday with errands, babysitting jessie's niece and then just being plain tired. I saw shopping's post this morning and about lost it. I feel so completely awful for her that I can't even explain it. Ugh. Kolleen, don't worry about the nursery and stuff. We live in an apartment too and the baby is going to be sharing with my office because I work from home and have to have a lot of equipment. I got the crib and changing table up this weekend (Jessie about killed me when he saw I did the crib myself before he got home Friday), lol. They fit perfectly in the room, but there isn't room for the dresser, so I may just take that off the registry for now as I have an extra dresser in our master bedroom that I just use for storage right now. Anywho, the bed and stuff is cherry wood and it matches the finish on my desk perfectly (didn't realize this when we bought it) so it all actually looks pretty nice in here. A bit cramped, but oh well. 2 walls are for baby and 2 walls are my office. I cleared off the walls where the crib and changing table are and plan to decorate those to go with her bedding. I will post pics of the furniture on the piczo here shortly.

hi, me again! I put up pics of my furniture on piczo!

 

kolleen_caudillo - March 16

i know not to be to sad about the nursery thing. we are gonna move soon so i cab do it then. i just see so many things i wanna buy for her and cant cuz my baement floods when it rains and it has ruined some of my stuff so i wont be storing things down there. but when the time is right ill be able to go get all that i need. im just hormonal lately.

 

stefkay - March 16

oh my goodness I hear ya about the hormonal...yesterday was terrible and I think that is a lot of why I didn't get online or do ANYTHING. I sat on the couch and stared at the tv and felt kind of blue. Then Jessie came home and we started talking about something random and I started bawling. I was like "I don't know what's wrong!" then today I just feel better, but for no reason at all. It's bizarre.

Happy Leprechaun Day Ladies! Another Monday to survive, but I have my dr's appt. today. I'm going to be in soo much trouble - my feet & ankles were majorly swelled this weekend. The left foot was alot worse than the right foot - I gotta start drinking more water. I just get really busy during the day and forget to keep drinking but I have to start doing better - if not I'll end up on bedrest or the hospital :( Anyway, I hope everyone had a good weekend. Stef - can't wait to see the pics of baby's furniture! Kolleen - don't feel bad - I too haven't done much of anything. I don't even have a crib yet, but I do have the comforter set. It will all come together in time :0)
