34 week appt

Hello Ladies,
I just wanted to share something fun with you at my 34 week appt today. My nurse took the doppler and recorded the babies heartbeat on this little Build a Bear recorder. If you all are familiar with build a bear then I would go make a bear and place the heartbeat piece in the bear and be able to play it whenever I wanted. It came in this oh, so, cute little house box. Well, it made my day! Plus, haven't gained any weight in 2 weeks, measuring on-time and he said he wouldn't stop labor if it happened!!
Thanks for letting me share.
Kellie

That is soooo neat! I can't wait til I can start buying things again. How can you NOT gain weight?!?! You are so thin as it is! Lucky girl!

Can't wait til "mystery baby" arrives! Hopefully, I'll have some good news to post in a few days. I'm trying not to get too excited, yet. But, it's d@mn near impossible. My chart is looking really good! I know better than to speculate, though. Waiting...waiting...

OH!!! how cuteeee!!! i'm going to freaking build a bear on saturday! that's just the best idea ever! =)))
Girl! you must be so excited!! don't worry about the onesies... im sure they'll fit, they stretch well, plus if not, then you can always send dh to walmart to buy a couple of packs of them... ;)

My Ob told me that Maddie was about 6.5lbs last monday (at 36w!!) and that i'll probably be delivering an 8+ pounder!!! holy pain in the groin batman!!!!!!!!! =0

The funny thing is the OB furnished me with the build a bear recorder, I didn't bring it in with me. That was the MOST fun!

tahariel:  I will be delivering at 39 weeks I'm hoping I don't have a porker in there and all these outfits not fit, ha ha ha good thing my sister is due in Nov I could pass them on.

Tanker:  Funny how things work out.  I was just reminding my sister that I was pregnant at Halloween, HALLOWEEN, that was a million years ago!!

lynda544: Check w/your OB, mine just gave me one. Maybe build a bear is doing some kind of promotion w/OB's :)

Patty, yeah, you'd better hurry whatever you do!!  you could go any day now!!

That is really cool about the bear. I didn't know they did that.  very neat.

Congrats on the appt and not gaining weight!!  

You are sooooooooooo close now.  

You know what kelly.  I can remember when I was going through IUI#2 and we went through our 2ww together.  I was in FL at a conference with DH.  Neither one of us got out BFP that clycle, but look at us now!!  Very cool isn't it.

What a great idea!!! Thank you for sharing. Definitely a little bear to cherish.

I bought two new "going home" outfit sets from Kohl's today. They each came with a hat, booties, outfit that can either be a sleeper or a gown, and a bib. I bought the 0-3 month size (8-12 pounds) because the newborn size was for 5-8 pounds. My two babies were 9 and 10 pounds. I've been looking for cute outfit sets for a while and I'm very excited to have finally found some . . . on sale too!  Tomorrow I'll pick up the infant car seat with my BabiesRUs 15% off coupon!

Oh yes Kellie! I am with you on the onsies.. I washed the ones I got and now I am like.. are you kidding me?????? Especially if he already weighs 5 lbs 10 oz!! YIKES!! I may be in trouble!!

The build a bear heartbeat recording is so cool. I got a bear at my baby shower that you can record things on it too.. Maybe I will do that before we have him!!

Congrats on everything being on time! It's getting more exciting!!

Also, I bought about 20 newborn onsies for 5-8 lbs..... I don't remember w/dd but these are SOOOO small I don't think they'll ever fit... Anyone feel the same :)
