In case anyone needs opks/cheap preg. tests, Wondfo is marked down on Amazon today to $7.79 for 50 opks and 20 hcg tests. Looks like a good deal according to camelcamelcamel.
Before I forget I also wanted to plug these types of spooky Halloween shirts which you can get on Amazon, lol. If you search "Halloween pregnancy shirt" there are all sorts of other kinds, and if Amazon's not your thing there are also a ton on Etsy. My MIL got me the skeleton one (and DH this one) which we're going to wear when we pass out candy this year lol. So silly but so fun. Anyway, sending love to all of you this week! 🧡 Hope everyone has a great weekend too.
How old is the battery?
I use this iProvèn thermometer: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Basal-Body-Thermometer-BBT-113Ai-iProv%C3%A8n/dp/B01MFGHHK2/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1523951995&sr=8-1&keywords=iproven+basal+thermometer&dpID=41RmJU6qJ1L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
It's been working great for 1.5 years now. :) Every year I change the battery. I ordered batteries on Amazon too, but can't find them in my history... Good price though!
This one is on our registry, but I am not 100% if that is his final choice, haha.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076DK2NXZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_SBpZAb2KP3YGY That's the one I got. My shower is on the 29th so I'll have time to get something else if I'm not a fan. It's the only one I really saw that wasn't ridiculously skin tight. Why is that a pregnancy trend?
In order to not take over everything, I'll reply to my own comment.
I have 2 ideas for telling husband: 1) I'm the planner and scheduler. I have a dry erase calendar on our fridge, and sometimes I'll write future dates on there. Like the half-marathon I've signed up for is on the board. I'm considering adding another date there and say "Baby" or something, and ask him to check the calendar and see if we have anything coming up soon. (I am concerned he'll miss it, he's not always super observant.)
2) I order this book or this book (or both) and give them to him. If it happens now, use the "early Christmas present" excuse. January it could be "anniversary present" (our dating anniversary is in January). February is Valentine's Day, March is his birthday, April is my birthday, May & June I'll have to make something up. XD
String lights totally make the ambiance better! I got these lights on Amazon a few years ago. They look really nice. And I have some orange battery powered flickering candles with everything on a timer from work till bed. Easy peasy! Plus other small decorations.
I believe it's The Expectant Father. One of his friends lent it to him saying it helped him a lot, but I don't think my husband has read much of it yet. Most of his reading so far has been the Mayo book.
