Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Insent to your profile address, juliana!

I do agree that you don't really need as much as you think you'll need, and in general we have tried to keep the baby/kid stuff to a minimum. But then I look over my list of recommended stuff, and it's stupidly long. Sigh. However, a lot of it falls into the "might be nice to have on hand" category, rather than "must have" (and I tried to distinguish between the two). The other thing is that you really don't need to buy everything right away, and you can always return stuff or change your mind after the baby is born, because you don't know what your particular baby will actually want/like/need until s/he is here.

TCG's brother is building us a crib since a standard crib will not work for me. He's a builder so my only real concern is him actually getting the crib to us on a timely basis. So we're getting a co-sleeper bassinet.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

In the meantime you can also clear out a dresser drawer at appropriate height.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I love that woman and her new possum friends!

What I didn't need today is for my PCP to question my OB's decisions and freak me out. She thinks the glyburide I'm taking for my GD is dangerous for ltc.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'd trust your OB to have greater and more current knowledge on what drugs are safe during pregnancy. It used to be thought that glyburide wasn't ideal for GD, but more recent tests show that it either doesn't cross the placental barrier at all, or only minimally crosses it, and it's generally regarded as just as safe as insulin.

Always Anti-fascist!

I would agree that most moms I know say you you don't use all the stuff on he lists. Can I get some no surprises -ma for the dental cleaning today? I used to take it in some stride, but sometimes there are situations I don't know I have and it's stressful.Thanks.

Thanks Teppy. I was i no way expecting you to respond to that. I'll discuss it with my OB at my next appointment just because my PCP seems to think I should go off of it a few weeks before ltc is born.
