Pregnancy Nesting…

May 24, 2013

So there are some typical questions that people ask when your pregnant and the latest one has been, “So do you have the baby room done yet?” and well….the funny part is that we recently moved into a new house and you would think you would just leave the  “baby room” empty and honestly if it was empty I would feel alot better about the situation. But it is currently a second closet/storage space for my husband, which I thought was pretty funny because he could have used the spare room for those type of things….and I know what you are going to say, “wait, there are paintings in there too Diane?” and yes three paintings which I can easily move compared to the garbage bags of other fun stuff….

See picture:

anyway….he assures me that it will be clean “very soon”….I just hope it’s before this “nesting” period is suppose to take place. Which brings me to the next common question people seem to be asking lately which is, “have you started nesting yet?” and the answer to that currently is no, however it has been on my mind…. 🙂

Best Ovulation and Pregnancy Apps

May 24, 2013

So pretty much as soon as I got a positive pregnancy test I turned to my iphone to start searching for apps….I’ve always been a fan of apps in fact I used the app “my days pro”

to help track when I was ovulating pre pregnancy.  So I’ve tested a couple out and by far this one is amazing its by baby center and it’s call “My pregnancy today”.  So what’s great about this app is that it comes with video, pictures and little tid-bits about being pregnant and you can follow it every day. Its great to have your parents download the app too and put your due date in there so they can keep track too!
