I know target does 10% off (maybe better now I dont know) of the items you didn't recieve that were on your registry! Doesn't hurt to put everything on!

Candy, very smart lady to do it ahead of time! I know with Juniper it took me weeks to get everything washed and put away, and that was only 1 baby!! =)

We still haven't even started Leo's room, poor little guy. Its still full of junk and everything! We'll get to it I'm sure, but I'm affraid its gonna be a rush job!

Ive felt weird crampy pain all night, but it seems to be easing up now. Not sure if my stomachs upset, or if I've over done it, but I'll be taking it easy tomorrow for sure!

Hope everyone else is well!

Thank you all so much ladies for the advice and insight into registry and baby shower planning. I've been to many and they've all been so different but so fun. I pretty much started putting everything on it, even clothes tho I've read not to put those on there.

Im glad your Dh feels better Pringle and I hope he gets over his cough soon.

I understand a little how you feel Spitler. You have more time than me, but it seems like yet another daunting task when I look into what will be my son's future bedroom and there's still no indictation that its supposed to be a nursery.

Ha Ha yeah I've got about 12 weeks left and there has been like next to no progress in that room. Its sad actually, but with Dh's schedule, there isn't a lot of time to get anything done. It will get there though!

Enjoy making your registry! You'll get clothes as people always like to buy baby clothes! I put a few things on I really wanted as well!

Hope everyone is doing well and your husband is feeling better pringle!

Spitler..don't feel bad were not even able to move into the new house until the first weekend in December, so her room prob won't be ready til closer to January/mid Jan.

My shower isn't even til Mid Jan so I prob won't have it done all the way until after the shower and I get all the stuff we registered for like the bedding, etc. We do have the crib though, just have to put it together, and I want to repaint the rooms, the people that live there now have 2 girls and one room is painted neon green lol and the other room is purple, our bedroom I think is just plain white so thats good we won't have to do our room atleast but the other 2 have to be done.

lol I meant I have more time than you Spitler. Although Im a little iffy about really setting it up because we might be moving in at the end of April. Which is a big might, but still a maybe.

lol@ neon green room, now thats personality. I can certainly understand wanting to repaint, you dont want the child to have to spend all the time in the nursery with sunglasses on.

Wow, Neon Green, now thats a statement! Junipers room is a light purple and Dh painted her ceiling like the sky. Leo's room will be painted in white blue and orange stripes (big ones) and have a sports theme. Dh and I like colors, but not so much on neon ones!

SCORE!!!!! I GOT SOME DRUGS!!!!!

The good kind though Got me some mor Zofran. I just went on a whim and prayed they would refill it (Insurance only pays for 4, and the pharmacist wasnt sure last time if it was for 30 days or not) anyways I am absolutely positively thrilled. I gave the empty bottle and just kept praying they wouldnt come back and tll me that I had to wait 30 days from the last time they filled it. I was honestly going to throw myself on the floor and cry. I was going to make a big scene until someONE did someTHING. Glad I was able to save myself the embarrassment!

Spitler- My babies' room is my current guest room/ closet for all the clothes and shoes that I have. There's going to have to be a MAJOR overhaul. I feel sorry for whoever's gonna have to do THAT! Ha!

Pringle- hope you and Dh are doing ok

Did I tell you guys my vision for the nursery? Chocolate brown walls and pink and light blue polka dots. I think I want letter baby blocks too, in pink and blue. What do you all think???

I cant believe I'm actually talking about this stuff!!! Praise God!

As far as the registery- I am putting EVERYTHING on there. From cribs to bouncers to , well EVERYTHING lol. I figure that I get what I get and then after the shower I will purchase whats left. Cant hurt to wish/hope right? I wont be registering for clothes. Im a bit picky on that aand I feel like I should be getting all the clothes. I know really close freinds will be getting clothes for the babies and also people who just totally ignore your registry and get whatevr they want.

Ok confession time: My babay girl and boy already have about 20 outfits between them!!! I am sooooooooooooo sad!

hey Candy...
When do you think you are actually going to start buying things for the twins.. I am so nervous because I feel like buying every little cute fluffy outfit in the world but i can't yet because I don't know the sex of my baby till my next appt....!!Aggghhh LOL

Candy - I love the sound of the colour scheme for the nursery, sound's perfect. I am smiling at you for stocking up already on clothing, it's so exciting and once you know the sex(es)it's very hard NOT to start buying. 20 outfits between them is quite reserved Candy So pleased to hear you got your DRUGS!!!!!! LOL!!

Hey Ambrosia,

I already started buying clothes the same day I found out the sex lol. When I went for my scan at about 13 weeks they told me and I went straight to the mall! lol

Candy, glad to hear you got your drugs nad hopefully you'll feel better!! I love the nursery scheme! Sounds perfect!!!

I love your nursery theme Candy. It will serve the Twinkies delightfully!! lol@ 20 outfits each. I havent even started looking at clothes until I can get a better idea of what size he might come out wearing. My youngest nephew came out of the hospital in 6/9 months and hard bottomed shoes because he was a whopper. I dont want to waste money and time returning 0/3 months if the kid never wears it.

Im so glad you got your drugs!! I hope they make you feel better. Im glad you didnt have to throw yourself down too. lol I thought I was going to have to do that in order to find a flu shot in town.

I didnt put outfits on the registry but I did put things like bibs, socks, onesies, and sleepers.

I am not registering for clothes as Leo has recieved hand me downs already from two friends of ours and some of the stuff we got with J is gender neutral, so we will use that stuff again too. He already has loads of clothes and I am so sure I'll be getting more over time!

Hope you are feeling well Candy!!

Well, I'm off to drive the 450 miles to see my dad today. Juniper hasn't seen him yet, so it will be nice to get that side of the family together. I hope she does okay during her first day time road trip! Wish me luck!!!

Candy, hope all is still going well and your not being sick. Love the theme on the nursery, can't wait to see pictures. Candy 20 outfits your babies are going to be like the queen and have an outfit for each day and will not have to wear the same thing twice esp once everyone else buys you outfits once the babies are born. Mind you I am dreading getting all Jakes baby clothes out our loft as I know there are outfits with lables still on!!

Spitler, Good luck with the travling, hope it all goes well, enjoy your time away.

Sweet, I would say put everthing down and see what happens :), I did this for our wedding list and wash surprised at what people brought us.

I have finally started to get sort things out like cupboards and drawers ready for the new baby just need to finish off and wash all clothes. I haven't brought anything new and I am waiting until titch is born so I know the sex not that I will need anything if it is another boy as Jake had LOADS!! I am suffering today with my ribs and back and keeping my fingers crossed that my cough and runny nose doesn't turn into anything else nasty!

Hi to Rio and STagal and anyone I forgot x

Cleo- I have to stop myself from buying stuff evrytime I get off of work. There's a shopping district about 5 minutes from my shop. Whats sad is that I went on Monday and had to coach myself out of leaving the store lol

Sweet- Wow your nephew was healthy!! lol. Twins ar usually a bit smaller naturally plus since they wont let me deliver full term Im not expecting babies over 6 pounds really. And at the rate I'm going who knows. I still weigh less than I did at my first prenatal visit...
Good to hear you got your flu shot. I so need to do that.

Spitler- Have a fun and safe trip honey.
I also got some hand me downs from my best freind about 2 years ago. Why 2 whole years ago you ask? Well let me tell you : After she had her daughter my other close friend gave birth about 5 months later. So my best friend washed all of her onesies and layettes and gave them to me to give to her as a nic gesture. My friend wouldve been happy to accept them but her husband refused. Sooooooo I kept them for myself in anticipation that one day I would use them. And now I get to!!!! She doesnt even know I was the one who kept them. I plan on surprising her one day.

Pringle- In my head Im like the babies are gonna end up having more clothes than the days they can fit in them lol! I think Im just betting on my babies being tiny. I was 5 pounds and NOT a preemie and definitely not a twin.
So sorry you are not feeling too well hun

Candy,
You are so lucky to have known.... I can't wait. Doc only does it at the 18th week but I am out of the country right now and won't find out till i come back in dec....

Ladies...
Do any of you experience like pulsating headaches when you stand up or change positions? I don't get it but for the last week, when i get up esp from sitting to standing, I get a 2 min throbbing headache that makes me want to pull my brain out...I dont have a history of migraines or HTN, double vision so i know it is not pre-eclampsia... i just don't get it....ne experience?

Spitler,
I know I am really late, but congrats on finding out your having a baby boy and that's a very unique name. Seems like lots of us are having one of each gender these days I wasn't tooo keen on having a boy since I'm so familiar with girls, but by the time Jasper was 2 weeks old I was comfortable with changing him and he definately grew on me, such a mama's boy, hehe!! Also have a safe trip, we travelled 700 km's in a day with Audrey about 10 times and with Jasper (with Audrey aswell) 2 times so far and everytime went really well

Good luck on travelling Spitler.

Yes, my nephew was a biggun' his sister was bigger. I dont really think Darrien will be that big, but all the boy babies in my family are over 7lb and the girls are usually between 5 and 6.

I anticipate getting hand me downs from my SOs best friend who's little boy will be just under a year at my due date. lol Him and his DW were waiting for our gender confirmation to know whether we'd just be getting the neutral or all of the stuff lol. I've already traded a Jumparoo that I got from a friend for a baby swing from my sister. By the time Darrien can get in the jumper my neice will be out of it. And I anticipate having several car seats and getting a play yard from her. Its cool knowing that you can help others out and be helped to things that babies dont even use a whole year.

I get random headache's Ambrosia. Like the headaches I usually get when I dont wear my glasses to read I sometimes get when I do wear them, if I dont get at least 8 hours of sleep I get one. I've taken to keeping tylenol in my purse and taking one every 6 hours til my headache is gone. Though it usually only takes 2. Yours sound like blood pressure, take your time changing positions.

I hope your runny nose and cough is just from dust in the cupboards pringle lol. Get well soon!!

Sweet, AAARRRRR no its turned into a cold :O( had a rubbish nights sleep because of it! I wish it was the cupboard dust LOL x
