Lisa, don't feel bad. This is life! I'm happy for you that you are at a place where you can look into your future that way. :) I do wish I had money saved for emergencies, and I will have to work on that....but as far as investments go we'll have to wait until all the kiddos are in school and I...

How sweet, Liann! Thank you so very very much! All your financial talk is making me sad! We don't have anything saved for emergencies, we've had so many "emergencies" that we're wiped out. This is leading to alot of my anxiety as provider of my large family. After my trip down to see my folks...

The doctor was really hesitant to prescribe anything for anxiety...especially with nursing. My general pracitioner ordered the Ativan...I had to call him Saturday. My ob/gyn is wonderful, but slower at getting back to me and I felt it was an emergent thing that I get treatment right away...

I am off Wellbutrin, it can cause anxiety. I am on Celexa and Ativan. The ativan doesn't really seem to help and the celexa hasn't kicked in yet. I went to bed at 9AM then slept well until I got an anxiety attack at 1-2AM. I tried ativan, didn't work, so I took 1/2 ambien and slept until alarm...

morningstar~ I'd contact Garmin to see what's up with it? I've heard that this model is superb....especially in rural/tree filled areas....which is why I purchased this model.

I use 305 and live near Canada....where there are tons and tons of trees. I've had no sattelite issues. :)

Jen, pool sounds like fun. I have to gain more confidence to take the kids to the pool/beach. I normally take the boys, but will need help to take the girls. I might need to get a high school gal to come with me to help or something...I'll work something out! Just got back from four mile run...

Hi ladies. Thought I'd get us started this week. This AM was a bit rough, but I took a little nap and now feel much better.I did end up taking an Ativan for anxiety...and I think it made be drowsy, so I won't be able to take it for anxiety at work. I'm hoping my med will kick in within a week...

Jen, I know it's not a weakness but a chemical/hormonal imbalance. It sucks, but God never wastes a hurt....I'll be able to help someone else someday. I feel fortunate that it's PPD...so it won't last forever. I want to enjoy my kids and this season of my life. If I didn't get meds/treatment I...

I"m feeling okay right now. This morning I had the worst anxiety I've had yet... spoke to my MD who ordered some Ativan. I haven't taken it yet b/c my anxiety has subsided a bit (but now I'm exhausted). My body aches from all the anxiety and such. When DH gets home I'm going to try to take a...

I love to hear all the encouragement. I'm getting ready for work. I have to find a way to get this anxiety in check. I've never been an anxious person and it feels awful! It feels like my insides are all twisted up and I have this strong feeling inside that "I can't handle it". I'm usually a...

I took the PostPartum Survey and answered "yes" to all but one of the questions (I don't ever feel like hurting my babies). I feel better knowing what's going on with my body. Postpartum depression is more likely with multiple births (twins) as well as with a hard pregnancy (like bedrest). I was...

Hello. Been feeling weird lately. Just can't seem to feel "normal" lately. I am going to make an appt to meet with doctor to get checked out. Decided to try to pick up a couple more shifts/month to help pay for life. It makes me sad that I will be away from my family longer....but in reality...

Hi ladies. I've been around, but mostly lurking. Tomorrow reality hits as all our help leaves. *sigh* I wonder if they realize how fortunate they were that we shared our five children with them and let them clean & cook? lol I work Wed, but will have Thursday off. I've had a tad of the...

Susan, are you planning on supplementing with formula then? You are sooooo close to the 12 month mark....why not just wait until her bday to taper down? Anywho....if you want to taper to just two feedings/day I think you'll be just fine. I nursed Jadon until a little past his 2nd bday. The last...

Precila~ you did the right thing. I know how difficult it was for you. I've had similiar things, with clerks trying to give drug advise. I even once had a mom of an infant ask for drug advise. I gave my recommendation and then the clerk said, "Oh really. That's not what MY pediatrician says. She...

Yesterday I decided to give the boys buzz haircuts for the summer. It's alot harder than it looks! I had to have my friend "fix" poor Jadon's hair....then had her do Justin's hair for me. Poor Jadon...he looks like a chemopatient w/chunks taken out. The buzzer clips kept falling off when I was...

Jen, I'm so out of the loop....I had no idea you were running a 5K tomorrow! How fun. I can't wait to hear how it goes! Christine, I love the idea of a cow shape for pancakes. You are so creative. Good job on taking day off too!

You Insanity-aholics! I know where to find you when/if I"m ready to take the plunge. lol Six miles done. I really got in the groove and felt like I could run forever. I love that feeling. My running friend and I just chatted the entire time. Precila~I hope everything's okay...

Good AM ladies! I have so much catching up to do. I'm sad that I'm missing out on so much here. Whew life is FAST! In laws are going to be here sometime this PM....so I'm going to have to clean this afternoon. My friend is still here, so I'm thinking maybe she can help organize playroom with...
