NICE!!!! yah I def want to just let it happen.. not trying and not worrying. Just letting nature take its course! and hopefully it will happen!

Hey Shakara! I also was going to buy towels from cotton fruit and changed my mind last minute. Not only are you paying for the towel, you have to pay for shipping, the embroidery, and then all the extra suitcases it will take to get them there. We opted out of them last minute and Im soo happy we did! We did OOT bags with cups and a hangover kit and other small things as special gifts to our guests and they loved them. I just thought $8 something for a towel was pricey. IMO! Good luck!

WINNIE!!! I have been dying to know how your trip went!!!!

I carried them on in a duffle bag, wrapped in bubble wrap just once. Very simple and worked perfectly! Thanks for the love!

Yes thats what we were talking about in the "mommies to be thread". I wanted to see next week if she would suggest any or give me some samples etc. Then if not I will go purchase them! Im excited to start taking them. Im taking my normal vitamins and vitamin C also! So are you trying carolina24?

Awwwww cassie I love love love the first one with Max! omg sooo cute~ they came out great! they are sooo gorgeous!!!!!

Yah exactly sloan that is what I am worried about... I feel soo torn! So hopefully my doc will have some good insight! May 26th is right around the corner!!

I love #1 . Why do you want to remove the under layer?

I can only find one hb so far, but from what I've read and heard from other multiple moms it can be hard to hear the second baby's hb early on. Let's hope there's still 2 in there! Now that we've had a bunch of weeks to get used to the idea of twins, I'd be devastated if we lost one and didn't realize it. I'm being a paranoid first-timer, I know! Anywho, keep us updated on that u/s! Mrs. Martin -- I hope you're feeling better ... from both ends! Holly and Meagan -- good luck with your appts! Hopefully see you guys on the baby bus sooner, rather than later! It is soo tough working in the hospital setting. I work in radiology and we have tons of friends in Ultrasound and we are right across the hall from one another and its tough. All the girls I work with want to sneak over there on every shift. to check on their babies.. so far nothing has ever gone wrong but its scary. you never know and when the access is soo easy, how can you resist ya know. Praying for two twinners in there. From what I hear also that second heart beat can be very faint sometimes.Hang in there!! And thanks for the well wishes! Im torn I do not know if I should wait until Im ready to start trying to go off the pill or go off now?! What did you girls do?

HI and congrats and welcome to the forum!!!!! Your wedding is soooo soon! Have a blast!

I thought your ovulation/fertile stages were based off of your period, so not matter if I am on the pill or not Im techinically still ovulating for when its tracked. Does that make sense? And I understand that the pill makes you regular etc, but its all the same in the end. period.. luteal stage..ovulation.. cycle.. etc. And what not. I go to the OB on wednesday! Im excited (which is strange!) Lol

JMB- you sound like you are having a blast! Awesome! I cant wait to go to the doc next wednesday and talk babies! LoL I would love a baby girl! or any baby for that matter!

Ive actually never had a bad bridesmaid dress... believe it or not! What is your biggest pet peeve?

burnt orange. greens. or greys! love them!

Aut I never saw this post! Love everything, it came together so well!! YAY!

Jillian Michael's.. no more trouble zones!

This is an interesting thread. Im semi doing this I guess. Im charting and tracking my ovulation etc.. but Im still on the pill. I sort of want to use the "most fertile the month after you go off BC" to my advantage and hope I get pregnant right then! Does that make sense.. so Im afraid to go off now and then not be able to get pregnant later.. is that weird??

depending on when our guests book.. they paid at all different scales.. but Beaches tends to be pretty expensive! We paid $4950 total for 9 nights. But some of our guests paid $1575 total for 3 nights because they booked early enough. It all depends. above prices did not include airfare.

And I will pay for the shipping!!!! PM for more details!

bump bump bumpity bump.. Im bumping this thread! These dresses are still for sale! I will take $75 for the barijay dress!!! Retails at $225! As for the Maggie, my friend is hoping to get $350 for the dress or Best offer!!

My girls carried bright pink parasols and they each carried a kissing ball of origami paper flowers. It was totally awesome and I think it looked way cute all together! Before I decided on the paper flowers I was leaning towards japanese paper fans. but changed my mind at the end. And Im happy with what I went with!

I think wedding etiquette has changed quite a bit especially since DWs are on the rise.. We sent invites to everyone even knowing they wouldn't be able to come, because it was the right thing to do and we def. did not receive gifts from all those people and we also did not expect them. I personally would send them a nice wedding card. And call that the end of it. Good luck!

I have driven and flown into Key West! And the drive was wayyy fun and gorgeous! I love road trips so its totally your preference! Have fun!
