Bright, I'm sending lots of BFP dust your way! Bella, :wavey: I've been MIA as my laptop died ( ;( ), I'm back to work ( ;( ) and the two kiddies are keeping me busy ( :)) ). Thanks for checking in on my friend. She was hoping that nature would decide for her but alas, it was for her and her hubby t... |

Wow! Your carrier is beautiful! Any tips for mei tai wearing? Baby is too big to be in carrier with froggy legs but too small to pull his legs through the side. |

Re: The Official TTC for 6 Months or More Thread
Thanks, ladies. I think about her constantly but don't want to bug her. I can imagine she's not always up for taking about it, you know? Monkey, apparently this is extremely unusual. I don't know how many follicles she had but her RE referred to it as a "hot" cycle and they considered canc... |

June, I don't know much about the situation that led up to the sister being kicked out other than it was something that built over a few years and that MIL and FIL tried to put her in therapy and they almost divorced over it because FIL didn't want to kick her out.

Therapists and psych professionals-is there a term for this?
MIL has three children - DH and two daughters. She has no contact with the eldest daughter (H). Something big went down and the ILs kicked her out when she was 18. No one really knows what happened but MIL pretends H doesn't exist - no photos, refers to only one daughter etc. Recently, MIL has been ... |

Re: Postpartum Care Thread
5 weeks postpartum and a few updates. I'm STILL bleeding. It's spotting at this point but it's red. All of the internet sources say it should be long over. I called my doc and she says it's normal. My doc originally told me my stitches would dissolve some time around week 3. Well, they've been falli... |

Re: Calling all the Pregnant PS''ers
LTS, first, I'm thrilled that you and baby Daniel are well and I'm so sorry your birth experience was traumatic. It sounds like it was scary. ;( I just wanted to assure that you that you are NOT alone in how you feel. Motherhood brings lots of great things but early motherhood especially comes with ... |

Re: PS Mommy Thread-Newborn to 12 months!

Re: PS Mommy Thread-Newborn to 12 months!
Ladies, I need to vent here for a minute. The alternative is screaming at my husband. He's generally very engaged and helpful but the whole sleep (or lack of) is his area of weakness. The baby was up every 2 hours for 30 minutes each time overnight. I did not wake DH for help. I FINALLY got him back... |

Re: Full-Size High Chair or Booster Seat
We're going booster seat this time. The footprint of a high chair is just too much for us. Ikea does have some slim ones though.

Re: Postpartum Care Thread
Chrono, good idea! I also continued sleeping with my maternity pillow to reduce the pressure on my backside. I remember when I had DD almost 18 years ago, I was a senior in high school.

Re: At what age do you leave your kids home alone?
I left DD home alone for very short stretches at 10 and she came home from school alone starting at 12. I didn't really like that to be honest though. It was more out of necessity and I worked just a few miles from home at the time. My neighbors leave their girls ages 9 and 11 home alone sometimes f... |

Re: Personal Milestones: Fitness and Weightloss
Dreamer, I gained a lot with my pregnancies as well. 65lbs with my first, 50lbs with my second and 45lbs with my last. I lost 25lbs pretty much straight away (I'm 3.5 weeks postpartum) - because a good deal of it was water weight this time. So, now I'm 20lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight which is rea... |

Re: PS Mommy Thread-Newborn to 12 months!

Re: Need Gray Paint Color Recommendations...

Re: Postpartum Care Thread
Meg and AMC, I'm so sorry that your birth experiences were traumatic. That's really awful! No more children for me so it's a non-issue but I've been pretty fortunate in that department.

Re: Any baby wearing parents here?
Pave, I had a traditional infantino carrier with DS1 and hated it. I wanted a mei tai or ergo this time. I decided to get the infantino mei tai to try a mei tai but didnt want to spend a lot. I love it! I use it pretty much daily. DS is only 3.5 weeks old so I'll keep you posted. |
