hi! I'm carrying a suprise too! lol....I have just started buying on here as well, and am very excited that they have started arriving in the mail! woohoo! I'm doing prefitteds and covers mostly, I think I'll have close to 20 prefitteds when they all get here. Also doing my own wipes, and even found some Tea Tree Oil at Walgreens, 2 bottles for the price of one. Now I am on the hunt for a wipe warmer. And have to get my sewing area back together to sew the wipes.

Hi :goodvibes:

I am also planning on making some new wipes for this lo :thumbsup: Oh and some liners (I fear stains :giggle2:)

I cant stop shopping anyone else having this problem? Im sure I have more than enough as soon as I get my customs but I just cant stop :blush:

So anyone else starting to have more trouble sleeping at night? Im constantly tossing and turning. Im so very tired.

Sleeping is getting harder, but mostly b/c I have upper back issues I need to get worked out by a massage (I would rather buy dipes :giggle2:) Also I have to pee so often because this sweet little girl is really low and punches/kicks my bladder.

And Nina - we're due date buddies - July 19!

i think im just going to use disposable wipes for now. im using liners for sure though, it seems like a good idea in theory, hopefully it works. i probably have about 20 nb dipes too, mostly fitted, some pockets and some prefolds. and about 10 covers. i try not to look through the fsot forums too much because i just cant stop. i find myself ready to pm someone, then im like 'wait a minute, i dont need this!!'. im having a horrible time sleeping, i usually can only sleep on my stomach so it's been tough. im sure it only gets worse from here :)

You can sleep on your stomach still? I haven't been able to do that for WEEKS!!! lol....
My first one came at 38 weeks with my water breaking at 3 am. i got up to go potty, went to lay back down, and SWISH....that really woke me up! lol....
I thought " now, I know I didn't just pee myself! I just came from teh bathroom....!!" lol........
And this one is a thumper where I think my daughter was more of a roller, I feel him thumping more than she did.

I was 12 days early with my first :giggle: Ive been early with all of mine by about 1-2 weeks :thumbsup: So you might not go late at all :goodvibes:

:goodvibes: yep you can go to a massage therapist and get a massage. My midwife even gave me a list of places that specialize in pregnant ladies. Id also rather spend money on dipes than my comfort :giggle2:

This baby likes to move at night all night keeping me from sleeping. He had better change this soon or Ill go crazy :giggle:

i can sleep on my stomach, but its not good right? i dont want to smoosh the little thing. my stomach isnt really that big yet. i try to sleep on my left side but its so hard for me to fall asleep that way. my baby is a thumper too, sometimes kicking down at my cervix it feels like, trying to pop the cork early maybe. some people have told me that the high humidity in the summer makes your water break sooner....we'll see.

Well I've cut myself off from buying diapers, we will see how well that goes :giggle: I am knitting up a storm and have one soaker finished and 4 shorties done... I have interlock to sew some soaker so I won't knit anymore. I am also getting ready to sew some diapers and wipes. I have made some wipes and DS uses them now, but figure some girly ones will be nice :giggle: I also have made 4 sets of breast pads.
I decided I need to focus on buying some clothes!

Due 7/17 with a boy here :goodvibes:

A massage does sound great. DH always gives me one before bed if he makes it home from work before I fall asleep, but a professional massage would be way better since DH usually starts falling asleep when he's massaging me :giggle:

I can still semi sleep on my tummy too, but it's not very comfy.

So far our new baby stash consists of 6 small FB, 2 small VB, 2 small HH, and a small GAD I recieved as a gift. We plan on buying some more smalls but for now I'm on the wagon. I'm working on making sherpa/terry cloth contours for the newborn days and will probably just buy a few XS Thirsties covers to go with them :goodvibes:

I'm due July 30th with a boy!

I have a HUGE stash so far :giggle: And more is coming! I have about 20 PF's, 10 fitteds, 10 flats, 4 AIO's and 10 FB's (wait! some are smalls but my babies are big so I have to buy both NB's and smalls because he will use both and fast!) This is simply what is in our stash right now, the rest hasn't shown up :giggle: I still have about 20 flannel wipes from my last baby so I am good there :) And I still have a roll of rice paper liners so I think I am set!

I know someone answered this - but YES. Get a massage if at all possible, even if you're not pregnant. It has a major impact on how you feel - it's not just pampering. My massage therapist is going to teach dh some ways to help while I am in labor, too.

Rice paper liners? That's a new one for me, can I get more info on that, please?
thanks!

Here is one site:
http://www.greenmountaindiapers.com/doublers.htm

Another:
http://www.kellyscloset.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=9

Now, I have found that IF I am at home, I throw them into the bucket with my dipes and I have been able to wash them 2-3 times before they fall apart and I have to throw them out. :) Saves even more money! But when I am out of the house, they simply go in the potty and I don't have to worry about poop :)
