Once your LO comes it's just so much harder to get couple time like that. If it was me I'd do a weekend at our favorite inn/spa, get a couples massage and go to a nice dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618854 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 13:39:30 +0000 youboots 2618854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about anniversary/announcement photos? Get all dolled up and go to dinner after? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618745 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 12:12:06 +0000 SweetiePie 2618745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbeach: oh my gosh, duh. I'm seriously a moron. I was thinking about the fact that Oct 5 is one month away and subtracted 14-1. I was on my way to the RE and clearly was a little distracted. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618730 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 11:44:35 +0000 yellowbeach 2618730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of great ideas ladies, thank you. </p> <p>@SweetiePie: you aren't crazy - I am 10w3d, but by Oct 5 will be 14w :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618646 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 09:23:19 +0000 youboots 2618646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Perhaps a photo album with hand written captions? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618640 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 09:18:56 +0000 Mrsbells 2618640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbeach: Pinterest has some really great ideas on romantic dinners at home </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618629 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 09:03:11 +0000 josina 2618629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For one of our anniversaries I made DH a deck of cards, "52 reasons I love you". It takes a lot of thought to come up with 52 reasons, so can be very meaningful/sentimental. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618601 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 08:19:36 +0000 periwinklebee 2618601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! On both the anniversary and pregnancy! I like the idea of some sort of photo book, potentially combined with something written, like @SweetiePie: suggested. There are a bunch of different companies that have software that allows you to put together a photo book, and then they do a beautiful job of printing it out. I made one for my parents, and one for my wedding (I think the site I used was mypublisher), and have been meaning to do something like this for DH as I love how they turn out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618568 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 07:53:28 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2618568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: yes that would be cute! It's amazing how fast all the pregnancy emotions slip away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618535 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 07:00:45 +0000 whiskers 2618535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a photobook? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618531 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 06:13:13 +0000 SweetiePie 2618531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you want to make something, could you find a blank book or journal and write about your story/journey. How much it has meant to you, etc. And towards the end you can include an ultrasound picture and talk about your hopes and dreams and have a "to be continued..." page.</p> <p> <a href="http://www.barebooks.com/product-category/books/" rel="nofollow">http://www.barebooks.com/product-category/books/</a></p> <p>As you know I also went through IVF (and am again right now) and I know exactly what you mean about despite all of the setbacks and heartbreak, our marriage was at its best because all we had was each other to lean on. We had 2 miscarriages and my "diagnosis" of a translocation requiring IVF all in the first year of marriage. And I remember talking to a close friend and crying saying that despite the worst things happening to us, it was still the best year of my life because of him.</p> <p>PS can't believe you're 13 weeks already! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618528 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 05:53:03 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2618528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love experience gifts. Tickets to dinner and a show/game/concert? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-3rd-anniversary-pregnant-with-1st-baby#post-2618519 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 03:41:26 +0000 yellowbeach 2618519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oct 5 will be DH and I's 3rd Anniversary, and we'll be 14 weeks pregnant on the dot that day with our first LO. We've had such a trying year, some low lows, stressful times with IVF, and high highs with our :bfp: . I'm trying to think of a meaningful way to mark this year. I feel closer to DH than ever, and want to let him know just how much I appreciate his strength and love. </p> <p>Any ideas appreciated, but in general, looking to make a gift rather than buy something. Thx! </p>
