I think we're going with something that - possibly bamboo.

And some of the parquet tiles have been damaged and they are difficult to replace.

We have them in our investment property and plan on putting new floors down before someone buys it. They are old school. They're hardwood, but not my style, especially since every other aspect of our condo is renovated. Some people like "original" details, this is what I'd consider an original detail. But an unattractive one for my tastes!
You can buy my condo - I'll put new floors in for ya!

I plan on doing it - I'm really looking forward to it. I'd love to not return to this position and maternity leave gives me a little more freedom.
I don't have paid leave - I use annual/sick leave that I have earned. I have no obligations other than to tell them when/if I am returning.

Dr F doesn't want you to have to go through a difficult process to get pregnant. He will try to get you to your end goal by means other than ivf first depending on the diagnosis. You are in good hands. They aren't profit driven and want you to do what is best for your family.

Take the steps necessary to get where you want to go, no shame in it!

I end up on my back, too, almost nightly. I do, however, have pillows set up to be propped up a bit.
I also find it comfortable to have a squishy pillow next to me to 'hug' when I am on my side. For some reason, it makes it more comfortable. Same goes for a pillow between the knees. I'm not a fan of the body pillow - too hot!!!

Good luck!

I have that one. I love it. I stuck with using it about 30-60 seconds and not every day to reassure myself after ivf. It worked very well and I picked up the HB pretty early and quickly with it - faster than my OB offices, actually.

Now that I feel the baby move often,I would be happy to sell it at half price. I don't use it any more.

How do hiccups feel differently than other movement? When do you usually notice them?

Thanks, poppy!
I'll have to see if a friend has a loaner. I think one does of the Ergo. The moby looks way too complicated for me, I'm a klutz! I will test them at great beginnings in a few weeks, but there are too many on the market!!

Is it recommended to just wait until you have the baby for a few weeks and try them out? Or how did you come to decide? I have been told the ergo is good, but it's expensive so it seems odd to blindly buy it, but also odd to be without one right away (a sling/carrier of any kind). Any advice on this?

Ah this is the thread I was accused of starting? Pu-lease. I own my topics and am one of like 5 people who ever sign in, I just don't come on here often anymore. I genuinely don't care about this topic, but now I'm all over the European anti-Islamic issue! This is fascinating!
But please, this car wreck isn't my fault! Sheesh.

Maybe it's geographical. I went to Hebrew school with a number of Micahs and dated one in my 20s. To me, considering Jewish names for my child, it was on the list. Doesn't mean you are, just made my Jewish boys name list.

I had a 5 week one and saw something, but I was still too early to tell if it was blighted or not.
Hang in there, OP. I hope you find out the answer very soon.

Sheesh this is horrible. I've called the cops when I see dogs locked in hot cars, but never saw a baby - ill keep an eye out like a PP said when I happen to see a car seat. Frightening.

Love it for a boy. I think it's a Jewish name. I knew a girl named Mikal pronounced just like michael. It was in my list but too close to my husbands name so not happening.

Does anyone's husband have a sling they like Morgan those you like? My DH really wants one but I wasn't sure there was a difference between which ones men prefer to women. He has carried his monster nephew in a bjorn before but I have heard women aren't as favorable to the bjorn.

(they all seem too hot right now when I see people use them!)
