Baby Gear Questions

Hi beautiful mommies and soon to be mommies! We still have some "big" baby gear to purchase after our showers, namely car seat and stroller. We both have relatively "smallish" cars so nothing clunky or heavy. Our neighbor keeps lobbying us to get Peg Perego but boy are they expensive! I could probably hunt down a deal on the 'net if there is concensus that they are the best but I am looking for more input. We are planning to breastfeed and I am aware that that does not always happen as easily as a woman thinks. Can you help me plan...

Maternity Clothing Suggestions

We are looking to get pregnant in the next few months and I, of course, am trying to overprepare. I am already looking into maternity clothing so that it's not so expensive on that day that I wake up and can't fit into any of my prepregnancy clothes because the baby had an overnight growth spurt. With my first pregnancy I started the pregnancy in a size 18, so needless to say finding maternity clothing at a decent price that fit right was somewhat of a challenge. I have worked my butt off, literally and figuratively, and almost 4 years...
