Joovy Caboose

I just found this awesome site called Leelou Swag and they are giving away exactly what I NEED to tote around a toddler AND an infant: a Joovy Caboose stroller. Part of my entry is to write a list of my must-haves, and since I am currently dealing with one of the many symptoms of pregnancy, I am going to list my must-haves for dealing with pregnancy nuisances (specifically the ones I have experienced):

1. SinuCleanse Neti Pot- Great for cleaning my constantly stuffy preggo nose and for avoiding those horrible sinus infections
2. Tylenol - basically the only medicine you can take while pregnant, it's good for all of those pregnancy-related and non-pregnancy-related aches and pains


3. Fiber One Cereal + lots of water throughout the day - these two things combined help tremendously with the bowel issues that are common during pregnancy (or maybe it's just me...yeah, it's probably just me)

4. Cinder blocks under the head of the bed + Tums - this is for my current issue, acid reflux. Often, if I just stay away from certain foods and sleep with the bed propped up on cinder blocks, then I'm okay, but sometimes I need some Tums. And our bed is only raised like 4-6inches, I don't think I could stand 8.

5. Ginger Candy - this and taking my prenatals only at night really helped with my "morning" (all-day) sickness during the first half of my pregnancies, and they're actually not too bad tasting.


6. An awesome and sympathetic husband - this last one is key, I don't know what I would do without this guy. Did I mention that he's the one who raised and sleeps with me on the slide...I mean bed, he bought me most of my must-haves, and he's cleaned up the after affects of the first-tri sickness issues on multiple occasions? And best of all, he still finds me attractive (or at least he makes me think that he does) even when he can barely put his arms around me.


By the way, I have about 7 weeks to go until my estimated due date and I am actually feeling really good (other than some recent virus(es) that I contracted during the last month, but I'm over that now), and I'm sure that these last few weeks will fly by with Thanksgiving and Christmas right around the corner, then we'll have a new little one in no time.
