i have pcos, which suppresses normal ovulation, and i am also bfing my 14 month old. i didn't get my period back until 2 months ago! but she was still nursing 4 times a day. it was a total surprise too! so, if you are still nursing, i wouldn't worry about it. i think it depends on how much...

My dd is 14 mos old and it DOES get so much easier. I think when you become a parent, your limits are tested to the max! I remember at 2 mos, 3 mos, 4 mos etc telling myself I couldn't do it anymore! Thanks, ladies. To answer some questions, I sling him all day long, I breasfeed him on...

I think around $7.50/american gallon near me in the UK

I really, really wanted to exercise during my pregnancy. At about week 7 I was overcome by very bad morning sickness that lasted all day and it lessened somewhat after about 27 weeks, but by then I hadn't been working out regularly. I tried walking, but developed SPD and any kind of impact...

sounds delicious! thanks!

im really glad to see your dog is back home with you! you must be relieved!

i hope you find him soon too! sending vibes your way!

is nine months old and LOVES Cathe! Whenever I put a Cathe workout on (BM2 and LIC are her faves), she stops whatever she's doing and claps at the tv, grins, bounces up and down - you get the drift! I just had to share! I can only hope she continues to find exercise delightful and entrancing...

hi - I just saw this and thought I would chime in. I had my first baby recently at 32. DH and I have been married for 6 yrs now. We enjoyed the first few married years together as a couple, but wanted a baby after about 3 yrs of marriage. I thought about all those questions as well and then...

if you can't get a wrist brace to wear, try to keep your hands elevated slightly at night...i suffered from moderate carpal tunnel during my pregnancy and it went away within the first 4 weeks... i hope you get relief soon! good luck! eta: ice packs also provide relief - try this a couple of...

RE: what does everyone im an urban planner working for an international engineering firm..im on maternity leave and was working on my dissertation toward my phd as well when i had my dd (which i may shelve)...im also a wife:) having and being a loving partner is a great job!

i'm all for it too! sounds like super idea!

Give yourself a rest mama! Deb gave you great advice! It's hard and it may not feel like you will get back to life or body before - it just takes time. I was nursing too (still am!) and found that sleep deprivation (3 hrs a night isn't enough) made it impossible to really exercise until dd was...

Thanks for the responses so far...I agree that America is very behind in its workplace attitudes. Shockingly so. Families are not a high priority at all - I agree with everything you have said Manmohini. Britain has all of the policies that you describe. And it has been nice. Howevever...

Hi all - I am mainly a forum lurker, but I would love to hear your experiences regarding part-time working or even your thoughts on the matter. I have only worked in the US for 4 years out in California and have spent most of my time working for consulting firms out here - so my view on this is...

thanks for your help, winnow. those are some great links - and the ebay idea is a good one too! i can imagine it's tough finding some of the equipment in Eire! annie

I am just bumping this up so it's seen during a European time zone.

I hyphenated my maiden name with my husband's surname...who says you can't do that? My father still doesn't accept it fully - he just refers to me as Myfirstname + DHname ... Our daughter has his surname only, but I thought of giving her mine. I know of another couple that hyphenated their...

I hadn't thought of Argos. I have the stability balls, a regular step etc - that's not the problem really. I just have a hard time getting the barbells, high step, and dynaband. I have tried to google them, but when I place the order the places say that they aren't actually in stock. So, it's...
