Got that done a year before trying! Also bought a house before we had our daughter, that was also one of the prebaby bucket list items. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2893 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 13:29:01 +0000 MaisyMay 2893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ WinnieBee - Yeah, I figured. Some sites say it's okay if you're pretty early along, but I won't chance it if we do get PG. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2872 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 12:20:09 +0000 winniebee 2872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wanted to travel a bit more - we took a few good vacations after getting married and after my miscarriage in June went on a very relaxing spa vacation to Camelback Mt. </p> <p>I also wanted to lose the 5 lbs I gained since our wedding, but that didn't happen. </p> <p>PS - skiing I was told by my doc that skiing is a no no in pregnancy (and booo I'm a big skier!) the theory is that even if you go slow or are a good skier, there are a lot of other skiers on the mountain who can run into you, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2848 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 11:23:24 +0000 HabesBabe 2848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our bucket list was:</p> <p>1. Get married (check!)<br /> 2. Buy a house (check!)<br /> 3. Adopt a dog (check!)<br /> 4. Go to Europe on a vacation (pseudo-check... we went to Hawaii last month)<br /> 5. Lose weight (uhh this will probably not happen)</p> <p>So we're pretty much good to go. SCARY! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2831 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 10:47:13 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 2831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to get rid of my credit card debt before hand. So that's a priority. Then once that's done I'm saving up for baby, and when we are completely debt free (probably 1.5 years after baby) then we are going on a trip. kidless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2739 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 18:39:51 +0000 ParkerHaus 2739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rome was on our Pre-Baby bucket list- check! Since we are older (thirties) and settled in careers etc there just isn't a lot of other stuff we are wanting to "check off", most likely we've already done it or don't plan to let kids get in the way of doing it later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2733 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 18:06:53 +0000 blackbird 2733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vacation :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2608 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 12:54:01 +0000 Adira 2608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I <i>have</i> a pre-baby Bucket List, but TTCing isn't contingent on it, if that makes sense. There's things I want to do before having a baby, but if I don't do them, they won't hold me back.</p> <p>1. Get in Shape (working on this one - hoping to lose 10 lbs before TTC in January, but... we'll see)</p> <p>2. Clean the House (and keep it clean - I recently created a schedule for myself to clean the house. I don't think I'll get to everything, but I want to get the main rooms of the house clean and tidy before baby)</p> <p>3. Travel (I've kind of given up on this one. I wanted to go to England and Greece before having kids, but now I'll do them sometime later. We DID go to the Carribean twice in the past year and I'm going to Las Vegas in December, so I've definitely gotten some traveling in). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pre-baby-bucket-list#post-2604 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 12:44:13 +0000 MaisyMay 2604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anybody have a pre-baby Bucket List? It might have to do with savings, or home ownership, or something else. </p> <p>We've been cleared to TTC next cycle (which should start in less than a week!) and so no bucket list for me, but I did get to do a few things last weekend that were biggies: go see a professional musical with Hubs, and see Lake Tahoe. I'm wondering about the safety of skiing if only a few months pregnant and if only on easy slopes... </p>
