  1. :lol::lol: Just go. You won't need us. Really.

     

    And hey, go early and have some meatballs for the rest of us, ok?

     

    Eta: no fair! I think you edited after I posted. Man, if you've made it all the way through that store and come out not knowing what to buy, you are made of different stuff than me. Even the trash cans are awesome!

     

    lol. The last time i went i bought a bathroom shower rug. How pathetic is that? I went all the way through for a rug!

  2. Exepdit or Billy bookcases. You can never have too many bookcases!

     

    And don't forget the meatballs. :)

     

    The meatballs are a must. ;)

     

    Do you have a particularly messy area of your house that's bugging you? Spend the money on organizing THAT space. The last time I went, I ought stuff to contain the shoe explosion that is my front entry. So. Much. Better.

     

    My next trip will involve taming a pile of cluttery boxes and bins that live in my dining room. I'm all about eliminating piles. I'm slow, but progress HAS been made. My goal is to have nothing in a box on the floor OR living in the corners of my house.

     

    Great idea!! Actually, every area is bugging me. The kitchen is too small and has little storage and the living room collects junk. The bathroom is big but has ZERO storage and our bedroom is exploding with clothes despite a closet. :)

  3. C was in the NICU 2 wks and I know we were there every 3hrs and so gas cards would of been nice (even if you live close, thats still a ton of driving every day!). I agree about food. Hospital food is ok for the first few days and then it gets old fast. A babysitter for younger siblings (luckily i had my mom at the time).

     

    Also, support. Having a NICU baby is stressful.

  4. That is awesome. Too bad they are selling plastic diapers with questionable chemicals.

     

    Well it IS a Diaper company. :confused:

    I think its a cute commercial. I didnt use a blanket or cover up to NIP, i pulled up my shirt though.

     

    Really it wouldnt matter if she pulled her shirt up, down or used a blanket- people who dont care for NIP or nursing in general will find something they dont like about it. :(

  5. due to my placenta issues and losses my RE is doing recurrent loss testing- you should ask for the same!

    I bolded what we have in common from my RE for Preg Loss vs what you are having tested. :) Red is what I have that you dont and unbolded is what you have that I dont.

     

    HTH!

  6. :grouphug:

     

    Is there anything you can do to make the best if the situation? Can you hang up thick curtains on the windows? Hang a sheet in the doorway to keep heat contained to the room? Do you have space heaters? can you cut any bills at all (even a few dollars can make a difference right now)? For example: If you have the Top 200 on Cable for $54, you can cut down to basic cable for $30 OR even drop it for now and always go back to it later when things turn around.

     

    Im sorry IMP. I hope things get better.
