A new addition

[Lady D]

I will pitch in with what I can as to diapers, bottles, formula, baby food, etc. money permitting. We are barely getting by ourselves. Will try to pick up a high chair and walker next time I am at that outdoor flea market, if it looks to be in fairly good shape. Try to buy some baby clothes also. Neutral colors for either boy or girl.

And Walmart and Target clothes are just fine because they grow out of them so fast anyway!

Congrats, Lady. This child will bring great joy to your life.

I know, just worried about their finances. They probably are managing better than us though finance wise. They will be ok! I don't think my mother and father, which will be the great grandparents, are very happy though. When I spoke with her she seemed really touchy and grumpy! I cannot deal with that!

Congratulations LadyD! They will be fine. Some of our best times were when we had very little financially. But we were savers, which has served us well. Enjoy the simple things! You will have so much funn!

Heck buy nothing until after the baby showers! My daughter had several and there was very little that was needed after the showers! She even had a SoWal shower from my favorite gulls! ;-)

Besides, they all find out the sex of the baby nowdays about the 5th month or so. My grandson had more clothes than he could ever wear. It'll all work out fine. Don't worry about your parents. They'll turn into a big puddle of grandparent goo at first sight. What's not to love about a baby.

Re: A new edition

Holy cow Mermaid!! I never knew that...good info my friend :clap_1:

My doctor gave me this information when I was pregant with my first. It took my husband 6 YEARS to figure out that I was no longer in danger of the litter box!!! Boy was he mad! :funn:

:clap_1: Congrats Lady!!! I'm excited for you. I would have never pictured you old enough to have grandchildren!

Of course seagrovelover is the youngest granny I know

Omigod, ladydebubba, did your diabetic dog, the one you've been talking about, did it die??

Well, I am. Just glad I am young enough to be able to enjoy this little one! Whichever the baby is going to be! She wants a girl, but not sure what my son wants. Me, it doesn't matter to me as long as the baby is healthy!

i kept telling my sis to not find out the sex. to me, that is the only mystery left in life, why spoil it. she didn't find out when she had my nephew, but she said it wasn't near as exciting with the 2nd so she wanted to know.....
