"Wow... just a few more weeks and a real live baby will be sleeping right there. crazy, huh?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-a-particular-item-make-your-pregnancy-seem-more-real#post-137939 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:17:59 +0000 autumnlove 137939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was the car seat &amp; bases for us too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-a-particular-item-make-your-pregnancy-seem-more-real#post-137935 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:02:30 +0000 SugarplumsMom 137935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got the car seat the other day and I've been having a mini freak-out ever since. Everything seems more real now! I'm having a baby in a few weeks?! </p> <p>I've bought things all throughout my pregnancy and I've been saving the car seat as a last big thing. The nursery's not done and we still need to buy nursery furniture, but I pretty much picked those all out and we just need to go out and get them ... so my freak-out doesn't really make sense since it's not the last, last thing we need.</p> <p>But still ... eeek! Is there an item you got that made having a baby seem more real? </p>
