Like most people in my family, I'm a shop-a-holic. As you've seen in past posts, I've already have made a dent in my baby item list. In a bizarre way, I guess it was a way to keep my mind off the 2ww. I figure if it doesn't happen this cycle it will happen in the next 3 months.
So I created a list of things I thought I would need. Some things are really "wants". To create the list I consulted with various friends and internet websites. A few of my fellow bloggers have asked for my list, so here it is:

I don't know if anyone else has heard of this but I was told ovidrel will be in your system for ten days. I had a shot of Ovidrel on the 13th and the 21st. I took a pregnancy test on wednesday morning to see if the ovidrel would still show up and it didn't. I don't think I gave the shot wrong because I have all the usual side effects. Has anyone else experienced this?

That is an awesome list! I do think you'll be using it soon.
As for Ovidrel, I did read that some people have it out of their system really quickly like under 5 days. I was shocked at a week, but you are pretty quick! At least you know whats really you and not the meds!
Thanks for the comment earlier. The ultrasound went really well. I got your comment right as I was heading in so it was nice to have positive words as I was on my way.
Good luck on the wait. It's almost over!
You are quite the optimist. Most of us the IF world don't dare make lists or buy baby things, or even darken the doors of maternity wear shops for fear of jinxing things. I hope you are right and you'll need this list in the next 3 months.
All the best, Jem
I would put off buying NB diapers and even too many outfits until you are farther along, you may end up having a big baby and start out using size one diapers and 3 month outfits (my guy wore size one diapers and 3 month outfits in the hospital- he never fit NB diapers or clothes) you may also want to look into cloth diapers they have One Size cloth diapers available so you can't go wrong and they are SO CUTE!! I started really late but plan on using them when I someday have #2! By the way I am wishing you luck!! I know the 2WW is hard!
I forgot to add, my I use blue lizard baby sunscreen on my guy and on myself it is waterproof and for babies with sensitive skin, you can get it online or at a dermatologist (but reasonably priced) use it after 6 months old. My dermatologist recommended it to me and I love it!
Sweet! Thanks for posting!
