An update....

I went to the Dr. today....

Everything's good, scheduled the US for 6/10....

I've been battling low blood sugar dizziness and yuckiness..... Could the maternity vitamins cause this?

When I was pg with my DS, the prenatal vitamins did a number on my stomach....they always made me nauseous...so that part is entirely possible. I have never heard of them causing difficulties with the low blood sugar dizziness. Usually I took my pill before I went to bed & then went to sleep as that helped ward off some of the side effects....

The iron I was taking gave me that problem - I told the doctor and he gave me a different formula that was easier on my stomach.

What vitamins are you taking?

I have been working through a free sample of Prenate - that the OB had given me.... My CN-Midwife had given a presription for another brand.... I think that I will switch back to those....

I take these at night.... as I have been having more issues with nausea than I usually do.... but I have been waking up to plummeting blood sugar levels since I started the sample pack.

We ordered our crib and dresser yesterday! My parents and hubbys parents are getting them for us. I know its a little early but they have been out of stock and dont want to take any chances! Plus, I want to make my own bedding and would like to have a bed to put it on as I go!

That is awesome and a blessing! I really like those! My in-laws bought our nursery furniture and we didn't order it until we knew what we were having. I wanted white if it was a girl and the color you have if it was a boy. Good thing you are ordering it now if it is a popular item. Luckily they had two of the three pieces in the back when we ordered, but the last piece we had to order. It didn't get here until 3-4 weeks before Hunter was born.

I know that either way this is the color I wanted. The really cool thing is we got it from Walmart online and they have site to store shipping which is FREE! We'll probably get to pick it up next week. We probably wont put it together for a while, but its nice to have it already! Its really starting to feel real...kind of scary...[&:]




Georgia-Peach -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 10:53:01 AM)

We ordered from Baby Depot and it took I think 12 weeks to get the piece in...crazy!




PrincessDonna -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 11:00:28 AM)

Ultrasound today!!!![:D]




lilyofthefield -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 11:15:54 AM)

Oh goody! What time?




TheEgyptianPrincess -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 12:16:49 PM)

Erin this is what I had for my boy.. it changes into a daybed right?.. its lasted this long (he is 3 years old now).. and the very same colour too... so I hope you like it as much as I have!

I now have to buy a big boys bed and transition him into that so that we can re-use that cot again for the little one coming.

I just noticed that from the list that HomelessMentality is due the same day I am!!! I have never seen her post... she is the one who can save the day... by having a girl that is!... otherwise it will all fall on Donna's shoulders! :P~

I have decided that I won't do the kick counts untill next week.. I will be 28 weeks this coming thursday... and hubby and I are going away this weekend to Strasburg, Pennsylvania
so i don't want to put anything alarming in my head that may pester me the whole weekend!.....

I am HUNGRY today!....I need to be careful cause i know those last 3 months are the onse I balloon up the most!.... but still.. I want FOOD!... I might go visit one of them chicken and rice carts on the street! hehehe

I'll try not too. Everyone keeps telling me they think I'll have a late May baby, but we'll see.




SweetLittleErin -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 12:39:31 PM)

Actually, the bed I got is not convertible. We didnt really want convertible one as we plan to try to use it for at least three kids, so it will be in use as a baby bed for a while.




Yachaddm -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 2:38:38 PM)

Aww, thanks Kim and purejoy! [sm=icon_smile_blush.gif]

Restored, the first vitamins I took had omega-3 in them and made me sick as a dog until I realized that's what was bothering me! Hope switching helps!

Erin, I love the crib and dresser! I'm so excited for you, picking out baby furniture!! [:)]

Donna, hope the ultrasound goes well and you get to see what you want to see!

Josiah is movin' and groovin' today! I love it! [:D]




BlessedMamaofmany -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 2:41:13 PM)

Em, you need a new belly pic on your blog Mama.

Meg, you are wicked cute! =)

Lily, one more day and you can say, "I'm due THIS month!"

EmilyAnn -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:05:49 PM)

I found out today that the dresser that matches our crib and changing table is out of stock and will take 8-10 weeks to get here. I need to find another dresser that will look good in the room.

our crib
our changing table

Here are the 4 I kind of like.
Jardine Natural Americana RTA 5 Drawer Chest This one is that same brand as our crib and changing table

Simplicity Ellis 4-Drawer Dresser - Natural This one has good ratings

Aspen 5 Drawer Chest - Natural This one has not so good ratings on BRU and Wal-mart

Beatrice 5 Drawer Natural Chest This one also has not so good ratings on BRU and Wal-mart

Which one do you think will look the best in our room? The crib and changing table are not the same color, but they are supposed to be. We also have a book shelf in the room that doesn't really match. I am not really happy with how the nursery looks right now (I would like it if everything matched) but I can't change it now.




SweetLittleErin -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:11:32 PM)

I liked the Beatrice one, (thats the one we got...BTW...its $10 cheaper at Walmart and the site to store shipping is free). I liked it because it was simple and I didnt have to worry about clashing "styles".

I also liked the Aspen one, but decided against it because I thougt the flat top on the Beatrice one would be easier for storage and stuff. It just seemed like it would go with more.




EmilyAnn -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:16:00 PM)

Both of those had a lot of negative ratings on BRU and Wal-mart, so I am not sure I want to take a chance on ordering either of them. If I did, I would order from Wal-mart.




Flintejae -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:23:18 PM)

Em,

I don't think I like the first one because it looks short/small?

The other two are really about your preference, I think.




SweetLittleErin -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:26:51 PM)

I didnt see too many bad reviews on Walmart.com. So I took most of it with a grain of salt, some of the "problems" they mentioned I thought were pretty easily remedied. And being furniture from Walmart, I really dont expect top of the line in quality. Plus, the fact there were more positive reviews than negative ones, made me feel okay about it.

Of the other two...I like th Jardine one best. I think the simple design would fit better. And being the same brand it should match okay. Thats another reason I picked the dresser I did, trying to get the colors to match the best I could.




EmilyAnn -> RE: '08 Pregnancy Chat/Support (cont'd) (4/29/2008 3:29:10 PM)

I updated my blog with new belly pics.

Janine, I have seen it in the store and it isn't any shorter than the others.
