    TTC/Preg Check in June 17th

    Please don't feel bad about cleaning. My theory is that something has to give, and I don't want it to be time with my kids, me not cooking healthy meals, or not taking care of ourselves. My sister's MIL had a major heart attack last night. she is alive but it terrible shape. She was a single...

    TTC/Preg Check in June 17th

    good morning all! It will be another 98 day here in texas. I think its still 85 right now! I did crack and take the kids to the pool after dinner last night, which is nice because you don't have to worry about the sunburn, just the heat. To continue about the microwave drama, I thought I...

    TTC/Preg Check in June 16th

    I just finished cardio with weights. Thought I'd share. ds was sleeping and I thought that dd was watching a movie. What she was really doing was making me a smoothie. With 8 peaches and a garlic press. I won't elaborate. That child will be the death of me. Kate-Please tell me your girls...

    TTC/Preg Check in June 16th

    Morning to all. Having an exciting am. My dd thought she would make me some soup. So she put a stytofoam cup of romen noodles in the microwave and turned it on. The black billowing smoke coming out of the kitchen prompted me to evac the house and almost call the fire department until ds...

    Please don't get upset about my rant.

    MY grand parents immigrated from France in the early 1900's. No english. My dad's parents camr from Austria in the early 1900's. No english. When they died they all spoke english and all considered themselves Americans(proudly too). Although they all continued to speak their native languages...

    RE: ```````````````` TTC/Preggos Sunday '''''''''''''''... I have Hardcore Extreme, and on one of the workouts she uses Imax 3 and low max combined. Then at the end she has the blasts from KickMax. So when I have a lower exergy day I do that one, but leave off the kickmax blast(which I hate)...

    milk production

    I had the same problem with both of my kids. I didn't work while nursing the 1st and did work part time with the second. I just didn't seem to have enough milk. What did help, a little, was to sit down with a glass of water or tea when I nursed and be sure to drink the whole thing, because I...

    RE: ```````````````` TTC/Preggos Sunday '''''''''''''''... Good Morning! DH is on call so don't have any Fathers Day plans. Pool party last night was fun, but when we got back I got sick. I threw up a few times. I couldn't tell if it was normal pregnancy nausea or if I had eaten something...

    ______TTC/Preggos Saturday___________

    I actually worked out, LIC, not a hard one, but the first workout in 9 days. Just thought I'd share in case it doesn't happen again. Lisa-I hate the amount of different bra sizes one goes through in this process. How can a 34 b become a 36 D? It makes no sense. Melanie-I am so glad you are...

    ______TTC/Preggos Saturday___________

    I think that is wonderful about hypnobirthing. I can't wait to hear about your delivery. It is nice in one way having a csection, because its scheduled, no painful delivery, BUT I sure would have liked to experience childbirth, even though the experience could be a difficult one. My cousin who...

    ______TTC/Preggos Saturday___________

    Good Morning! I love Saturday, no work!!! We have a pizza party planned for tonight at the pool, but nothing all day. DH is on call, so that leaves me with the kids. We don't have much planned except baking Melanie's muffin recipe. Kate-How have you like hypnobirthing? Have fun at the open...

    TTC/Preg June 13 ** FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Melanie-Just so you have hope, one of our good friends who had their home on the market for 8 months just sold it today. They were also at their wits end. Kate-I think it depends on the kid too. My dd would be fine to watch if I had a natural birth, but a csection probably too much (lol). My...

    Tim Russert died!

    He was the only reason I watch any type of news on Sunday morning. So calm and fair. He will be sorely missed.
