Have you kept things?

I have a box with DS's scan in it, a diary i kept while i was pregnant with him, cards from when he was born, his 1st shoes and 1st babygrow. I've just added his 1st bday cards and candle too.

You're all nuts!
DH insisted on keeping the cord stump. We've moved twice since, goodness knows where it is. We have the pregnancy test too - revolting!

The notes from each home birth.

eg '05.43. Spidermama is progressing well, dancing around the room now making low humming noises. She says she's feeling a bit pushy.' etc.

I didn't think to keep the pregnancy test - keeping something I've weed on is a bit far out even for me!

Ds's test, my hospital bracelet (I dont know what happened to his). DD's hospital bracelet.

Cards, gifts, scan pictures, age candles and now selected drawings and paintings.

We were given a bottle of pink champagne since we had a pink bundle, which came in a box. I kept the box, and it is mostly full of endless scan pictures (got to love complicated pregnancies ) and the stuff prementioned, with the cards in a scrap book. I have one of each of the different drugs I was on, to remind me of the cost of getting her here. Wish I'd kept a premmie nappy, but just didn't think.
