  • Have you told him that acting like that bothers you? Unless you have, he more than likely has no idea so he’ll continue to do so unless you tell him it upsets you. If my husband acted like that he’d be out on his a**. So to answer your question….no.
  • I used to have a work husband, we were both single at the time. He eventually turned into my real life husband. :happy: We’ll be married 3 years this June. Edit: I do have a “work girlfriend” at the moment. We’re both happily married (to men) so nothing is going to come of that relationship. :laugh:
  • Last year while I was jogging a woman yelled out to me from her front porch (I passed her house every morning) that she sees me running every day and thinks I’m doing a great job. I was having a crappy day and was just going to give up and walk the rest of the way home but that gave me the motivation I needed to keep going.
  • I set my calories to maintenance and then added 300 extra calories a day to that number once I reached the second trimester. However, I didn’t track all the time. Some days I was too sick and some days I was just lazy, so I ended up gaining more than I wanted to. The best advice I can give you is to listen to your body; do…
  • I figured I’d type of up my birth story while Kathryn is napping. I swear they gave me the wrong baby, she hardly every cried in the hospital. Now we’re home and it’s all. she. does. Labor and delivery was a million times better than I was expecting. I woke up at 3:45 Sunday morning to a really strong contraction and my…
  • Kathryn marisonia born october 9th 1:01pm 6lbs 2oz 18 1/4 inches long. She's perfect
  • Scorpiomom – I give you credit for planning to cloth diaper. I don’t think I have the patience for it. You said you would still dump the poop in toilet with a disposable diaper? I’ve never heard of doing that. Melissa – I hope you have fun at the concert! Caperfae – congratulations!!!!! She is beautiful! Julia – welcome…
  • FitMommyLuv – yea for your first ultrasound!!! Mommy2CnG – the first trimester was the worst for me. I was tired, dizzy and nauseous all the time. I couldn’t exercise at all and the only foods I could keep down were junk. Hang in there, it will pass. R_mageddon – I found out I was pregnant really early but I had to wait…
  • I started the October thread....oh wow, Kathryn will be here this month! :noway: :happy: :bigsmile: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/357645-pregnancy-october-2011?page=1#posts-4843519 All you have to do is click on "New Topic" in the "Motivation and Support" section, then just copy and paste the new like in the old…
  • Other than telling her several times a day that she needed to flip over, I didn’t do anything. There are some stretches that are supposed to encourage the baby to get into the head down position; I was just too lazy to try them. If you do a google search you’ll find a bunch of suggestions, although I wouldn’t suggest…
  • Caperfae – we’re both stuck with no progress, I’ve been 2 centimeters for over a week now. I walk every single day and it’s done nothing to bring on labor, but my doctor will let me go to 42 weeks before being induced. Hopefully you’ll go into labor soon and won’t have to worry about being induced. Melissa – I can’t…
  • I always said that I could never date a guy with a smaller waist than mine….until I met my husband. He and I are the same height and he is technically UNDERweight for his height. I was very close to my heaviest when we met and got married and he never once complained about my weight. He supports me losing weight because he…
  • Sorry ladies, I’ve been seriously slacking. I don’t think they’re anyway for me to get caught up so I’m just going to start over from here. I had a doctor appointment today, the check didn’t hurt at bad as I thought it would but it wasn’t exactly pleasant either. 2 centimeters dilated and 50% effaced. I know that really…
  • We posted at the same time! Have fun on your date tonight. I just set my calories to maintain my pre-pregnancy weight, but if I’m being completely honest I don’t remember the last time I logged my food.
  • Julz – complain all you want, that’s what we’re here for. I’ve been having a lot of pressure too, sometimes it feel like she’s going to just slide right out! We’re so close though, you can do it!! Scorpio – I’ve had people tell me I’m too big and others tell me I’m too small; since this is my first pregnancy I have no…
  • Other than seriously re-thinking the dress I let my cousin talk me into wearing, I’m happy with how my maternity pictures came out. She took so many! But these are a few of my favorites.
  • Stacy – Don’t be too hard on yourself about weight gain, every pregnancy is different. I’ve gained way more than I wanted to this pregnancy (44 pounds at 36 weeks), but baby and I are perfectly healthy. I know women who watched everything they put in their mouths and worked out every day and still gained like crazy, it’s…
  • Calcote05 – welcome and congratulations! As long as you’re not high risk it’s generally safe to continue to do whatever exercise you have been doing, just don’t start anything new. Tabbycat – welcome! Baby dust to you! Caperfae – sorry you have to poke your finger so many times, but I’m glad baby hasn’t been affected by…
  • Julz – I’m really picky about hand me down things too. I love watching my belly jump when Kathryn moves. I can’t believe we only have 4 weeks until we’re due! :noway: Delirious – I set my calories to maintain my weight when I found out I was pregnant. Congratulations! The cramping is probably just your stretching; I had A…
  • Yea!!!!!!! I’m so excited for you!!!!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: I still stalk the TTC thread, but I must have missed your announcement. Bloating is totally normal in the beginning. The best advice I can give you is to keep doing what you are and listen to your body. I had to drastically change my exercise routine…
  • I didn't change my exercise routine during the 2WW, but I didn't do IUI. What did your doctor say? Baby dust to you!
  • I agree with this 100%. Do NOT lower your standards!! For years my family told me my standards were too high and I'd never find anyone. I ignored them and found a man who treats me with more respect than anyone I've ever known. We've been together for 4 years, married for 2. (I haven't opened a car door or pumped my own…
  • Jenna – we LOVED the pediatrician! It’s a group of 5 doctors we be pick a primary one that’d we see all time. We picked two the work together that both have very small kids of their own. I felt more comfortable knowing they would be going through that same things with their kids as I will be not far apart from each other,…
  • Thanks for all the nice comments on the mural. He worked really hard on it, and I’m soooo happy with how it turned out. Caperfae – there were a bunch of kids at my shower too. But my cousins, who were helping me with the presents, did a good job of getting them to settle down. I’m glad all you have to do is increase your…
  • Lindsay – yea for no hospital visit!! You’re so close, I’m so excited for you! Melissa – 18 pounds so far is great. Glad you had a nice romantic dinner. And yes, you definitely deserve to go shopping! Julz – glad you had a great shower! I think trading the used car seat in at BRU is a good idea, just because you don’t know…
  • I can’t speak for everyone but most of the daycares in my area regulated to a point. I worked in child care for 4 years and was required to take a CPR/first aid class every year along with other education/child development workshops. The food menu is available each month (some places food is included in the cost, others…
  • Julz – whenever I wake up in the middle of the night and I don’t feel her move I get freaked out. I normally can’t fall back asleep until I can feel her again. Good idea to wait to talk to your regular OB, I wouldn’t want to schedule an induction before 40 weeks either especially if the NST says baby is ok. Mrsgrovester –…
  • Ashley – I had to read that a few times to make sure I got it right. $7 a day is awesome, we’ll be paying $165 a week when I go back to work in January. It’s feasible for us now, but I’ll have to get my student loans paid off before we have a second one. Julz – I told my husband that I was going to try to cold/hot packs,…
  • I thought Level 3 was the easiest too.
