    Here is the stroller:

    Chicco USA - Cortina Stroller - Adventure

    And car seat:

    Chicco USA - KeyFit 30 Infant Car Seat - Adventure

    Of course there are other colors, this is the one I chose :)

    My friend works at The Right Start and pointed this set out to me and showed me all of the features including the leveler and lever for proper position.

    Ok, gender teller, so you think I'm having a boy? Why is that? I'd love to know. That's a cool gifting to have!

    Yeh, my mom used cloth diapers on me and one of my friends is a naturalist, so she has been telling me all about it. I'd love to do it to save money and to give my baby a healthy bum. Hee Hee Go to Cloth Diapers-Comfy Bummy Diapers-Your Complete Resource for Diapering Needs and they will send you info on cloth diapering- the how to's and what not.

    Yo, Kpizzle! What's this talk about twins? Hee Hee Do you think you're having twins or are you wondering how you can guess the sex when someone is having twins? You still haven't told me why you say boy for me.

    How is everyone's weight gain going? I've already gotten a lot of water weight gain. I've gone up one pant size and I'm 12 weeks now. And the scale says I've gone from 135/140 to 154! My doctor says she's not worried and I look fine, but that was my first appointment and she never saw me before I was pregnant. What do you guys think? I say it's water weight gain because it's like everything is tight now- thighs, butt,and arms... like they've been filled in or something. Everyone else around me that's at my same week only have visible signs through a little pugginess in the face and a small belly bump. My stomach is already very visible.

    Only recommendation I'll make for a car seat is to look for one that will allow you to keep baby facing the rear as long as possible.

    Seats will require baby to be turned forwardfacing at a certain weight because of that seats design. Look for one that will keep them facing the rear to the highest weight limit you can find.

    While the law states baby can face forward at a year old and at least 20 pounds, that is not the safest option.

    The chicco holds up to 30 pounds! :)

    Nope, still don't get it. I didn't understand why you were mentioning twins to Altenweg. Also, I asked about guessing the sex of twins since you guess the sex of singletons. No one said you don't have anything better to do... because you spoke of it several times, I presumed you liked guessing, like a fun hobby or something. Anywhoooo... yes, I still want to know what is the reasoning behind your guesses. (Symptoms, a feeling, a hunch, a vision, etc.) Everyone who calls something has some foundation for their guessing. My hubby prides himself on predicting the outcome of all football games. He uses his knowledge of the game, knowledge of the teams strengths and weakness and compares that with the team they are playing, and then he also looks at the location of the game, the coaches, and then makes a prediction. So far, he's always right, winning lots of bets with friends. So, that is why I asked you why do you say a boy for me since you've never seen me before. I know you already said you could be wrong, but I would like to know why you say a boy.
    I hope this comes across clearly. ;)

    Why do you say you can tell us on the 11th week before the ultrasound? You mention mind saying one thing and the heart saying something else. Which one do you use when you predict the sex of others babies? Please don't think I'm knockin' you... I'm just wondering, that's all. I have a friend who I haven't seen in months and when I told her I was pregnant 2 months ago, she kept saying girl. I finally saw her last week, and she goes, I still say girl. And I asked her why, and she said she just feels like it's a girl. She is a spiritual person like me, so I just presumed she had a vision or something. My mom had a dream that I had a boy and she said dreams are opposite so that means I'm having a girl. So far, you're the only one saying boy so that's why I wanted to know how you predicted that.

    Thanks for the info.

    Criss when I tell you to read my post clearly it seems like you don't? When I say my mind and my heart am talking about ''my pregnancy'' and again I will know the sex before the ultra sound tells me.. and I love whether it's a boy or a girl because when I was praying to GOD I ask him to be pregnant not to give me pregnancy with a ''specific gender''...

    Whoa, I didn't mean to offend you. Since this is my post, I didn't think it was off limits to ask you a question about something you said underneath it. Geezzzz, those pregnancy hormones must be kicking in full force! Remember I was hoping for twins? That's why I wanted to know if there was a reason you mentioned twins. On a prior post we were wishing me twinesss. And then I thought, maybe u felt u were having twins since heart was saying one thing and mind the other. We've been cool since the beginning of this post. No need for offense... SMILE!:D

    I know you were talking about your pregnancy. I just asked how you will know. That's all- very simple. Dude, it doesn't matter. Typed words are read based on the person reading it, I didn't completely understand what you typed. That is common because you know what you want to say, but the reader does not. If it bothers you for me to ask you about something you said to me or anyone posting, then don't answer. That's fine because it seems as if you are miss reading my words and not having an understanding heart.

    I'm not upset that you said it's a boy because you could be right. This pregnancy stuff is all a surprise to me so I will have whatever sex God wants me to have, it's totally in His hands. If I had a say, I'd like a girl, but if it's a boy, I'll be happy too.

    God bless you and you're pregnancy.

    I hope everyone gets what they want and if not I know your be happy with what you get. I just found out one of my best friends is pregnant with twins.

    I wanted to add, I have a girl and just had a boy, which I wanted, and they make cutier clothes for girls than for boys. I get upset when I go shopping for him and see the selection they have. That's why in my spare time, which is really spared, I make him a outfit or two.

    Wow! A friend of mine just told me her friend is having twins! It's so crazy how common it's becoming. I was a nanny for 1 1/2 years and during that time I had the opportunity to watch two different sets of twins. They are a lot of fun! Hubby and I really wanted twins. Ultrasound shows one baby. Most of the babies I watched were infant boys and yes, clothing selection is soooooooooooo limited. There is soooooooooooo much stuff for girls that it just makes you get all excited!
    We may stop after this pregnancy, so if I only get one, I would love for it to be a girl. I do occasional acting gigs, like commercials and local theatre productions, so if my girl is interested in it also, I'd love to do some children's acting camps and help her get into church productions and such and even pageants and other performances if she seems interested. My hubby is into sports and she may vary well be a sporty girl and spend her time going to games and playing with him, so we'll see what happens. Hee hee
