Okay, so today I'm 17 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I think I felt the baby move this morning when I was laying in bed after my alarm went off, but was that really the baby or just a figment of my imagination? Maybe I'm psyching myself out because I've been told this is the week when the possibility of me feeling him or her is actually there. Who knows! All I know is that I felt something (just once). It was either the baby or gas. lol... I probably won't know for sure until I feel it again, IF I feel it again!
On to a less-exciting note... exciting for me, but probably not everyone else. lol... We went into Babies R Us this weekend. Oh wow, how overwhelming! I just want to know what I'm having already so I can start shopping for either pinks & purples or blues & greens! We spent our time there looking at furniture and baby gear - strollers, swings, walkers galore!! We already know what travel system and pack 'n' play we're getting, but not the swing yet. We did narrow it down to two choices though!!!! Check them out:
1) Mamaroo Infant Seat
or
2) Graco Sweet Peace Soothing Swing
Well, before I go I just wanted to share with everyone that we find out what we're having in exactly 10 days! YAY!!!! Friday, May 13th we will know whether we're going to have a sweet baby girl or a precious baby boy. Can't wait!

Graco swing gets GREAT reviews but I've heard a lot of mom's raved about the Mamaroo. Definitely check to see if they take batteries (because I promise you, YOU WILL go through plenty of it) or see if they have a power cord to attach to the swing so you can save some money on the batteries.
ReplyDeleteI have the Fisher Price Nature Swing and we are constantly going through D batteries like crazy!
Oh I've heard about the battery issue from you & others. I think we're going to go for something that plugs in! Let me ask you, did Snoopy change once Arianna got here? I'm wondering how Taeko will react.
ReplyDeleteHere's one that I suggest: Fisher Price My Little Snug-a-Bunny Cradle n' Swing - http://www.fisher-price.com/fp.aspx?st=2002&e=product&pid=56778&ncat=thumbnail&pcat=bgsw_cs
ReplyDeleteThat's the one that plugs in and this will save you tons of batteries. I wish I know but we were very blessed that someone gave us their swing.
Snoopy didn't really change much with the baby but he was very curious. He didn't get jealous at all but he tends to be very needy (which is normal for us) but since he's getting older, he's to himself a lot. Sometimes I think Chris gets Snoopy riled up too much that he forgets that there's a baby around so I have to constantly remind Snoopy to be careful.
