Julie – So sorry to hear about your allergies! They sound just terrible – your workouts are going great, especially considering how much more effort it takes when you’re not feeling well! Hope you’re still getting a full night’s sleep, too- that makes such a difference in your energy levels...

Hey all - Kristi - so sorry to hear about the ear infections. Our DD#1 ended up with tubes by 18 months and it was sooooo good for her. I think the antibiotics she was on that first year really took a toll on her. She's now 4 and doing great - hasn't had an ear infection in over a year...

For me, if it feels like you're being taken advantage of, you probably are. I guess I don't mind 'giving' a gift, but I do resent being forced into it with emotional blackmail or social pressure, i.e. being invited by people who know you'll do the socially correct thing and send a gift. I...

Kristan - I'm so sorry to hear about Bear...and thinking about your other dog wandering around just made me teary. It's so hard when they are such a part of the family. {{Hugs}} KC

Maggie – 15 passenger van? I’ve been wondering if one of those is in our future. They look pretty roomy, and everyone could have a window seat! Melanie – thanks for the tips. I’ll have to figure out when to add some pumping sessions. I pump in the mornings after I’ve nursed G. and also...

Hey all - I'll catch up with last week when I get time. It's been another crazy week, but I'm hoping someone here can help with any of the following: -Reflux (discomfort, gas, crying) and spitting up. G.G. spits up a lot, and I don't have enough milk to feed her twice every feeding! :-(...

For jogging, I think they say the swivel wheel isn't safe, so you might want to check on that feature. If you won't be jogging, though, the swivel is great for maneuvering! We bought a Dreamer Design Ditto last year, and it's fantastic - we live in a rural area without sidewalks, so the...

You mention that HR was in the room. Are they usually there for reviews? If that's not normal, then I would guess something more than a review was going on... Did they tell you why the review was poor, in specific detail, and did any of it sound like something you may have heard before...

The second link worked - my 3 yo is now dancing around the room and I'm about to join her! Thanks for the fun!! :) :) :) Now if I could just get everyone at work to play it tomorrow morning - THAT would be a hoot!! (A sure cure for a 'case of the Mondays' ;-) )

Hi! Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!! Hope you all have something nice planned. Anyone doing anything really special? With the kids, we don't usually go out or anything, but we might have a little wine and slow-dance in the livingroom...yep, that's our 'big night out' these days :) :)...

I'm logging in so late this week! It's been nuts, as usual :) I live near Pittsburgh, so the Superbowl mania has been taking over, between extra events at daycare, work and clients rescheduling appt's, I feel like I've completely lost my grip - not that it was all that tight to begin with :)...

I am soooooo laughing at myself!!! I read this without noticing the date and was REALLY confused - I was thinking 'So Briee IS pregnant!' Kind of confusing with all the denials I've read in past posts! But, the joke's on me!:) :) :) Now I have to make the recipe...

Melanie – you look fantastic!! The numbers (pounds and inches lost) are impressive by themselves, but the pictures really tell it all! Congratulations and thanks for being such a good motivator by example. :) :) Gillian had gotten a virus that resulted in bronchiolitis. With albuterol and...

My mother had us on these as kids, but I stopped when I went to school (and had to pay for them myself! :)) I got 'back on the wagon' last year when I needed a pre-natal and the prescription varieties were making me sick. All I can say is that I wish I'd gotten back on them sooner! I feel...

Melanie - I loved your idea about introductions, but then I FORGOT! :+ Can't blame it on my 'pregnant brain' anymore can I? I'll just have to come to grips with the fact that I'm losing it! :) Anyway, I'm in SE Pennsylvania with 3 DD's: 3 1/2, 2, and 8 wks. If/when we move, we're...

We have a double jogging stroller that's side-by-side, and a regular stroller that's 'in-line', and we love both. The in-line model is nice for the mall, but we do have fights about who gets to sit up front. :) The back seat is a little higher than the front, so the view is fine for both kids...

Hey ladies! It's so nice to 'hear' all the happy energy you all have! :) :) Melanie - your week looks fantastic!!! How do you do it?! Congrats on the weight/inches loss, too – you must be feeling great! I want to know, too, how you manage to get those workouts in. I would have to be...

What a week, and it's only Wednseday!! The baby got sick Sunday night (screaming, fever, horrible congestion, gagging, etc.) Called Dr. in the morning - they made me feel like krapp because I didn't call in the middle of the night. Apparantly a fever over 100.4 in a baby less than 8 weeks...

Just to chime in, I agree with everyone who said that 2 months is too young for it to be a spoiling issue. Babies spend the entire pregnancy right under your heart, hearing your voice, etc. so being alone in bed would be very strange and a little frightening. In the...

Melanie – The pounds don’t tell the story – my clothes don’t look like they used to, that’s for sure! I have enough outfits to get through the week, but there’s plenty that I can’t/won’t wear until Cathe can get rid of all the extra lumps and bumps, if you know what I mean. I’m totally jealous...
