Week 29

Nothing much has transpired this week, but I have noticed some more body changes. Varicose veins are forming on my legs and my gums are starting to bleed when I brush my teeth.   Plus, I am getting super sweaty.  Gross!!! From what I have read, this is all normal at this stage in pregnancy.  However, on a good note, my nails are looking amazing.  Yay for per-natal vitamins. 

I did get a special delivery on Wednesday.  Bill and I have decided to use clothes diapers.  Many people have their doubts about them., but I am gonna prove them all wrong.  I was inspired by Sherry P. from Younghouselove  who uses BumGenius Snap All- in- one diapers for her baby Clara.  She has been using them for almost 2 years exclusively.  We will try them for at least the three months that I am home.  We will be using disposable  when we travel and at daycare.  It is worth the try.  Plus, they are so cute.  Here is what the modern cloth diaper looks like.

I have only ordered 6 at the moment, but I will be getting around 18.  In the grand scheme of things, these diapers will cost about $250 for two years instead of $1500 for one year of diapering a baby with disposable's only.  I think it is a worthy investment.  Plus we will be helping the environment by not creating so much waste.

In addition to the cloth diaper purchase, Bill and I finally buckled down and purchased a glider and a dresser.  Hopefully they arrive soon.  I really want to start putting away all the items we got from the shower.
