[Southern Butterfly]

Welcome Bindu! What part of India are you from? I stayed in Mumbai and Goa for a month in 2006. It is a very beautiful country and such a lovely welcoming culture!

WAG and Longing you both have some really cute stuff! Glad to know I'm not the only one doing all the shopping in the group :P

4Griffins, You are also so tiny! Where is that baby hiding???

longing can now see your pics dead cute! (think it was iphone ;-S)

i'm not buying anything as don't feel like i'm that sure yet but amassing a few items in my amazon basket including a yellow bloom bath the pink seemed a lill much ;-0

[Longingforgirl]

Just wondering cause I have been nesting... Is anyone washing baby clothes and stuff like that yet?

No, not yet. I think I will be waiting with that until July or so. Have you washed anything yet?

I feel like nesting too, but I feel like it's almost impossible. We really need to move, there's just no space. Or we have to rearrange everything. Right now, the boys have their own rooms, and they are so stuffed up. Our bedroom as well. I don't know where to put anything A year ago we moved and went from a big house to a rather small apartment (3 bedrooms). We had way too much stuff for such a small apartment.

Bindu, is there a reason why they won't tell you the gender in India?

[fish2012]

hey longing I think it's because there are less girls being born than you should expect and its feared to be due to selective abortions (around 800 girls born for every 1000 boys) in India like china boys are prefered generally seems to be the other way round here or maybe i'm just sensative as a mum of boys ;-0

BBC News - Where are India's millions of missing girls?

Oh, so they can still have an abortion at this stage of the pregnancy? It's really late Here, you can only do that until 12 weeks, so they won't tell you the gender before. Even though we don't have such strong preferations like in India or China.

oh really in the UK its 24 wks as long as you can convince two drs it would cause you mental suffering to contniue the preganacy - in some areas in the uk with mixed background communities they won't tell you the gender until after 24 wks for this reason - very sad ;-(

[Wanting-a-girl]

Selective abortions are th reason you cant have early gender u/s In Canada too... Because they were seeing less girls born to certain cultures/races... So sad
They are trying to pass some bill that gender can't be told til after the legal abortion time frame...

I have washed some stuff cause it was sitting upon the basement...
We are having a spider issue... Spiders are my biggest fear not to mention.. You want to see me scream like a little girl lol that's how... Anyways I'm in Ontario where I was under the impression there were no widow spiders but they seem to be nesting in my basement and garage so with that I wanted to get all my baby stuff clean and in my upstairs closet... Does anyone here deal with widows? I think I'm dealing with the brown ones they are disgusting!

I loved the white blooming bath! But didn't get it cause I don't do very well with white lol...

I have my crib together only cause it was ds3 that he never used and I never took down, so it's just conveniently there I hear you about cramped lol my two older ones have their own rooms and then ds3 sleeps with me... I know I'm bad but after his accident and surgeries I don't want him away from me... So I guess baby will also mpbe in our room! I can't put him with ds1 cause no trust there at all and then ds2 can't share a room either cause of his behavior problems... We need a bigger house and DH is stubborn he won't buy an older affordable house so we have to suffer... ;(
