I don't wear glasses but I noticed my vision not being as clear as it was a few months ago and I thought it was because I turned 27 and getting old and stuff. Come to find out it can be another glorious pregnancy symptom. Hope everything works out for you!
I had no idea this was a pregnancy symptom! That explains why I have needed my glasses for EVERYTHING lately! I used to only need them for driving. Will it go back to pre-pregnancy vision after the baby's born?
I read it will go back to normal and that's why it's best to not get any corrective surgery or anything like that bc you will end up over correcting. The only time is of course if it's just very bad and hindering you from seeing anything but I'm sure the doctor would tell you what's best. Crazy huh?!

@gfj48 sorry you're still under the weather! Probably call OB first but like pp my guess is they'll send you to a generalist. @jraeohyeaaa I'm so sorry about your dog. Allergies suck! Frequent bathing helps but is a pain in the butt.
That's what I'm afraid of something like that.. They aren't hard to do. I told people the date so at least they can see if they will be able to attend that day.
I have an opposite problem. My mom is getting ready to send mine out now for a 3/21 shower. I feel like that's way too early!
Yeah, mine went out last week for my 3/7 shower and I thought that was slightly early, but maybe not.
Anyone have a good pattern for curtains or know a (good) place online that makes custom curtains? The window in the nursery is an odd size and I can't find any online that are way too long/wide.
I have had really good luck with buying over-sized curtains and just hemming them. My sewing skills are not good enough to make curtains from just fabric but I was able to but a super wide panel in half and make 2 panels and just hem up the one side and then cut the bottom off and hem that. That way you still have the rod pocket or loops or whatever.
And then if there's enough extra fabric you could do something cute with it like incorporate it into a blanket or cover a pillow.

@sastahlman hope your appointment today goes well! alwayslastzz Not sure why you're cutting your nose off though if you're like me you've been waking up with a nose full of snot and that's never fun. pinkbarebear good luck to DH!
My mom bought a crib for her house last night. She has a crib for this baby before I do. I have never known anyone to be as excited to be a grandma as her. I'm so happy for her. And holy shit, May is creeping ladies.
My mom has a crib too! (and mattress and cribsheets and a changing table) She's way more prepared then me.
A friend and I were talking the other day about cheap vs. expensive baby gear. She said the only fancy stuff she has is stuff her parents have given her. I'm like yeah my mom buys fancy stuff and keeps it for herself!
I don't want to throw my own baby shower buuuut I wish I could send out my own invites. I just want to make sure they're out in time!!
I totally understand, my mom is not the most punctual person, and I'm very controlling. It's very hard to sit back and hope things like that get taken care of well.

amylee545 I had pregnancy related fluid build up in my eyes, and it changed the shape of my eyes so my contacts didn't fit correctly. They went back to normal after a few months.

I don't, but our old house had a window with an odd length so we bought longer curtains and hemmed them. You could also take them into a dry cleaner's or somewhere to get them hemmed if you'd rather not diy.
ETA: just caught up and saw you already heard this advice
Today is V-day for us. I can't wait for our second A/S on the 16th to see whether or not she has a stomach. I wish my doctor didn't schedule the scans 4 weeks apart. Four weeks is a lot of time to worry and google scary things. I think I'll finally start to feel like I can be excited once I know that she has all her parts. DH has been wanting to put the furniture together, but I won't let him until we know that we won't be needing to return it in 2 weeks.
I'm sorry, that is scary! You and baby will be in my T&Ps. Hope the a/s goes smoothly and you hear some good news!
Question---we are having a co-ed friend baby shower on 3/21 and I was just told our family one will be the next day on 3/22, do y'all see any issues having them back to back? I don't but maybe I'm missing something. May 7th due date (for those that can't see my ticker) so my only request was not to have the showers in April...
@texasmama15 - As long as it's all different people at each shower, then no. It should be fine.

I worked from home yesterday due to the snow, so dealing with idiot drivers on my commute and now being in the office makes me want to throat punch everyone. Also, it should be against the rules to eat cereal at your desk. The guy behind me is on his third bowl and the sound of him chewing is making my skin crawl. This happens every day.
Even though CTri17 has already put me to shame... I'm no longer a n00b! Congrats to your reg status! I will be having my own (less exciting) party over here...
I dreamed two nights ago that I went in for an ultrasound (at this point in the pregnancy...so pretty far on...) and the tech discovered TWIN BOYS that she had not previously seen. So basically, I was carrying three kids (and I already have a 2 year old daughter!)
I woke up nearly hyperventilating....sure got me out of bed and moving though! LOL All I could think was "DAYCARE FOR ALL THESE KIDS WILL BE 1K A WEEK!!!!" LOL
