Diapers, diapers, diapers

It is estimated for one child, you will go through 6,000 diapers in their "diaper" lifetime.  Recently we have been getting coupons for diapers and have been contemplating "investing" in some starting now (even though we are pretty sure we will get some at showers).  The question is, do we choose Pampers, Luvs, Huggies, or what?  I've read it depends on the fit for your baby.  Well if that's the case, does that mean we don't purchase any until after the baby is here when it will be too late??? 

I never knew there would be so many decisions!!!

Any input would help....

10 weeks - Lime


We went for our second doctors appointment today not expecting an ultrasound, but the doctor needed one to check on the baby and I of course did not object.  He said everything looked good and we were progressing as we should.

According to one of the baby weekly emails I get, baby w's bones and cartilage are forming, small indentations on the legs are developing into knees and ankles, and arms can flex already.  Along with all of that, this week baby w's tooth bud fairy is making her appearance, with the little choppers forming under the gums.  Stomach is producing digestive juices and kidneys producing larger quantities of urine.

I have been having a lot of nausea sometimes with a "result" so the nurse wrote me a prescription and she told me a vitamin I could take to help.  We will see.

Fate or coincedence

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord....to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

Is it coincedence or fate how Chuck and I met?
Is it coincedence or fate I purchased health insurance which went into effect August 1st?
Is it coincedence or fate that we sold our big TV system that used to be where the nursery will be July 22nd?
Is it coincedence or fate we traded our truck in for a SUV at the end of July knowing one day we would need one when that time came?

Pregnant August 16th....God works in mysterious ways!!!
