    Do not under estimate the power of plank work

    When do you open presents

    We spend Christmas Eve with my husband's family, so we exchange gifts then. Christmas morning we do ours, and then get together with my family later in the day to exchange again! It's non stop tearing of wrapping paper!

    Is anyone else GRUMPY?

    LOL!!! I am 14 weeks with #3 and my husband tells me constantly how miserable I am. I really am. I'm tired, feeling fat and wondering what the heck I'm doing being pregnant again :D! I hope it makes you feel better that you're definitely not alone!

    Help with sister/divorce

    I would definitely tell her what you think of the whole situation. She needs to hear it from someone that she knows has HER best interest at heart. Men!!! Once he saw that she was moving on, he needed to throw her a curve ball!

    who knits?

    I've always wanted to learn how to knit, too! My grandmother used to be a mean crochet'er, and of course, as a child I never took the time to learn from her. She passed away in '99. She would make really beautiful baby and granny-square blankets. My other grandmother (still alive, BTW)...

    I want my mommy :-(

    Michele - I wanted to first say that you are in my thoughts and prayers with all that you are going through. You certainly have had a rough time! My mom is in late stage Alzheimer's at the age of 67 and it's been eight years since she was first diagnosed, so there have been many times...

    question about radiation/chemo...anyone know the answer?

    We just found out last week that my sister's husband has a rectal tumor that is cancerous. He is due to start radiation and chemo treatment in a few weeks. The radiation will be a daily procedure where he needs to be driven back and forth. Does anyone know if it's safe to be around someone...

    I thought breastfeeding and pumping would be easier!

    Wendy - It gets better, don't worry. And I second the advice to get some Lanolin cream. It helps wonders. I can remember when both my kids would latch on just seeing stars for a moment or two! Good luck!

    No time for workouts. I just breastfeed and change diapers

    Hi Wendy! With both of my kids, I wasn't able to get to a regular workout routine until they were about a year old. I would just get in whatever I could, somedays a full workout and somedays I couldn't get a thing done! Don't beat yourself up too much! Enjoy the time with your new...

    Just have to share....diapers!

    Robin - Don't worry! I know all about big babies and how quickly the diaper sizes change. #1 for me was 9 pounds 11.5 ounces, so an itty-bitty newborn he was not. I was going to get some to have on hand, but definitely not all of one size!!!;-) Michele

    Anyone else suffering with morning sickness?

    Thanks, Jessica and Robin, for the advice. I've been feeling a little better and have found that combining carbs and protein (like an apple and peanuts) has helped me feel a lot better! I'm going into my 10th week, so I'm hoping the end is near! Jessica - I'm due May 6th. How about you?

    First trimester

    Hi Mary! I'm almost 10 weeks along and have to say that my workouts have really been put on hold. Between feeling nauseous and tired beyond belief, and having a 7 and 3 year old, I just don't have the extra energy right now to put into working out. I do what I can when I feel up to it. I'm...
