Hi Nisha, I have an appt set up with a ped this week and I came up with 35 questions today to ask him. Hope I dont scare him off!!! I also have a lot of shopping to do. The only thing we bought was the crib bedding because we wanted to decorate the babys room matchingly and I also got quite a few gifts with my baby shower. I am at 30 weeks now, supposed to narrow down the name list with my hubby this weekend. Lets see, we cant seem to agree on anything. Hope you are doing well.
Take care - selvi
