Jess


I am 5 months pregnant and I am going crazy getting things ready for the baby. The baby was not planned but we are still excited for its arrival. The problem is that I am so stressed out that I don't even know what I need!

My husband made me a list of what I need but it does not seem like much. This is what is on his list:
sippie cups
utensils
plates
formula
diapers
clothes
toys
crib
diaper bag
mobile
monitor
bottles
highchair
safety gates
pacifiers
Am I missing anything?

How much do baby supplies cost all together? I just moved in a new house with my husband about 8 months ago and I am worried I might have trouble getting enough money for the baby.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.



Answer
sippie cups - not till about 9 mos old
utensils- ? You will need some little spoons after the babies a few months old
Plates- for whom, adults eat from plates
Formula - only if you don't breastfeed, which I highly recommend. It's economical, it's healthier, you lose the weight faster, etc. etc.
Diapers
Clothes- just onesies, jammies and socks are necessities
toys- not many for a newborn, you can pick them up slowly and second hand toys many times have almost no wear
crib-get it second hand from craigslist or classifieds
Diaper bag- any large shoulder bag will do
Mobile - fun to have but definitely not a necessity
Monitor- nice to have but definitely not a necessity (get it second hand)
Bottles- only a couple if you breast feed
Highchair- not until the baby can sit up
Safety gates- not until the baby is mobile at five or six months
Pacifiers- maybe, if baby doesn't suck his/her thumb
Am I missing anything-yes first I'll list necessities then I'll list the things that are just nice to have.
**car seat
*infant tub- if you're not a pro it's difficult to bathe a newborn without one, I like the one that fits in the kitchen sink.
*blankets, about six receiving blankets and at least two regular baby blankets depending on your climate.
*burping cloths or substitute a pkg. of cloth diapers
*you'll need several sets of comfy pajama type clothing, babies dirty they're clothing often so how many changes of clothing you have will decide how often you are washing clothes
*2 sheets for whatever bed the baby sleeps in
*Toiletries such as diaper cream, baby wash/shampoo (I love the lavender one), baby powder, baby lotion

Things that are nice to have
*portable crib/bassinette- I like the one that's an all in one portable crib/bassinette and changing table, You can set it up in your room for when the baby's a new born and everything will be at your fingertips in the middle of the night.
* Carrying sling or pack
* One set of hand covers
* Stroller, possibly one that works with your infant car seat
*waterproof cloth mats, to lay under them so that you don't have to change their sheets as often

I'm sure I can think of other helpful things, I have six children you are more than welcome to email me. Also remember, many very nice things are available second hand at a tremendous savings.
Congratulations!

Answer
it is frustrating when they do that but try not to worry about it too much. i would do one more bd just to cover your bases. you can o up to 36 hours from a + opk.
also try preseed - helps a lot.
we used a fertility monitor in preference to opks as its much more exact and economical.

good luck
