Half Way to the Goal
Well we're 6 months along. Mostly. Nothing really new has happened except that I now really do look pregnant. Last week my brother pointed to my stomach and said "Whoa!" Yes. Thank you Paul. I think Eric likes it though.
I read in a book that men are proud when they're wives are pregnant. I asked Eric if that was true and he confirmed that he is proud of it. I think it makes them feel more manly that they can reproduce. At any rate, I'm happy that I don't just look chubby.
We had an appointment yesterday and found out that I have to go to the hospital in the next month to get my Rogam shot and my glucose tested. I'm not really looking forward to that but it would be nice to know were the Timp Regional Hospital is since that's where we are delivering.
I also found out that I gained like 10 pounds in the last month. I'm still where I should be but I'm going to have to be more careful going forward. I don't want to have to lose 60 pounds!
So someone gave me a piece of advice last month. She told me to pick up diapers any time I go to the grocery store and stock up. I thought this was a good idea since I read that newborns go through 10-15 diapers a day (something Eric didn't believe and asked some lady at the store who confirmed it). So at the grocery store last night we decided we would take a look at the baby isle. We were both pretty floored that diapers are so expensive! It's $10 for 50 diapers so that will last about 4 days! We bought a package and we'll continue to do that every time we go to the store for the next... what 8 years? sigh.
Here's a question for you mothers. How many packs of diapers should we buy of size 1 before the baby grows out of them and we need size 2?
