  • I am moving there soon too...hope they have lots of trails...feel free to add me.
  • You look great..definitely got some good definition...and you can see the difference. I am currently working on the 30 day shred...I am half way there I may try this afterward...it's the 2x a day that would kill me as I am short for time as it is. Did you do it in the morning and evening or just do it back to back?
  • Hi Ladies, Melissa - congrats on little Rhody...he is adorable...wow on the birth story so glad you are both ok and that you and DH are enjoying your new bundle of Joy. Amanda - congrats on Olivier...and Jack being an awesome big brother. I wonder what it is about the toddlers patting the baby's head? I always have to tell…
  • Jaylyn...yeah on your little guy. It sounds like labor and delivery was quite the roller coaster but all that matters is you and Tayt are healthy. Definitely take it easy so you heal. I too feel like super woman and try to do things all day and ended up ripping my sticthes from my tear...so let hubby and anyone else that…
  • Hello Ladies...Happy 4th of July. I have caught up on everyone and wanted to reply but the little one will be stirring soon for her feeding and so much has happened on here the last five days it's crazy. I will say this Destiny was talking about milk supply and I had supply issues with Ben at least in my opinion...I too…
  • Hi Ladies, Lots to catch up on...sorry I don't have the time since I am on hubby's computer. It seems like everyone is doing well and still hangin in there. Jaylner- I am with you...I have been at 1-2 cm for the last 3 weeka and the doctors keeps saying my cervix is soft and even after a weekend of contractions on and off…
  • Hi Ladies, Sarah - sorry to hear the DH still hasn't found anything but hang in there...we are here to motivate each other so feel free to post even if you just want to rant. I hear you on the weight gain and it being worse when the hubby is around...don't beat yourself up just try to make little changes they go a long way…
  • Emily - Your weekend sounds nice... wow 1-2 cm is nice progress... I am also starting to get swelling lately...I can feel it like my ankles and legs are filling with water...strange feeling but it does seem to go away as well. I am with you on the sleep front...lately Ben has been waking up at midnight and coming in out…
  • Hello Ladies, Sounds like you all have been busy! Amanda - congrats on litlte Evie she is adorable. Your story was a wow thanks for sharing but I am so glad it all turned out well and you and baby are fine and home. Myiceisonfire - sorry about the pre-e like symptoms ( sp) and that someone on Mfp was so insensitive. I had…
  • Bru - So glad your dad is home and that you are enjoying your weekend with the hubby and in Chicago...great city...lots to see and nice to be near the lake. What's 50 Shades about? How many books in the series? I am always looking for good books to add to my never ending reading list. Helen - glad you are feeling all…
  • Hi Ladies, Found temporary fix to the laptop keyboard trouble...wireless keyboard. Emily - Yeah Baby has turned...awesome...now you just have to get the last min things done and then he can push his way into the world...:) Melissa - no work won't replace the keyboard...it was a personal laptop I used for work…
  • Hi ladies... Still here just haven't checked in because lack of a laptop...my laptop works but none of the keys work so my son may have shorted out the keyboard...debating now on weather to get a new one or see if its fixable...otherwise I jump on bhhubbies laptop when hs hbome and not working... Sorry can't catch up on…
  • That was a through list... I think I may try a different detergent after all...thanks for sharing.
  • Destiny, Guess we were posting at the sametime. Congrats on the hubby starting a new job...and being around more...how wonderful. I found that with my hubby after telling him over and over that I needed help...I just stopped and kept doing all the things I was doing before and saying how beat I was and he finally got the…
  • Christina - glad Max is feeling better. I hate when my little one is sick. Don't know about the cervix questions...maybe call your doctors office and speak to your OB when she gets back. I completely understand wanting a woman...I started out with a guy and he was nice but something about it weirded me out...so I opted to…
  • Amanda - You hubby sounds terrible I hope he gets better soon. Maybe he is experiencing pre-labor anxiety because you are going to go soon. Glad he liked his present bumper that he found it so soon. Interesting that your baby is measuring behind after measuring ahead, but I think you are right if the doctor had any reason…
  • I use free and clear tide the powder. When I can afford it I buy some rockin green but since I wash everything else in tide free and clear I use that on the diapers as well...so far no issues. I had been using some liquid detergent before but I am finding the powder works better.
  • Mpederson - I live in a one level house too. I think the trick is to keep it close to a bathroom and where you will be changing your little one. When we lived in an apartment I used a wet pail and kept it in the laundry room and washed every other or every two days. It was fine. really especially if you get a cover for the…
  • Katlin - yeah the cloths diapers of today are so far removed from what my mom used as well. I used prefolds with pins with my son for the first three months too and still do prefolds with covers when we are home because they are easy and as long as it's just pee I can reuse the cover over and over... Faughorn - seems like…
  • Hi Ladies, I had hopes of catching up with everyone over the weekend but then my toddler and my laptop had a water fight and the toddler won...so i am waiting for the laptop to dry out. At work today and hoping to get in replies if I miss you I apologize in advance. Amanda - how you feeling. Wow...I hate reaching the 40…
  • Hi ladies, Sorry I have been MIA...I have caught up on everyone but it's late so I don't have the time to reply to everyone. Sounds like most of you are hanging in there... And that Amanda and Kristi can go anyday now...wahoo...I know what's like going past the due date...it's like you just want the baby out but realize to…
  • Happy Thursday All, Melissa - so glad you and hubby have narrowed down your options with regards to housing. I hope everything works out. I know how stressful that can be. Get movers if you can that will pack up the big stuff and definitely use the opportunity to declutterize. AS for me and MIL...we actually get along when…
  • Hi Ladies, Destiny - The deorderant eposide sounds like the day I had...without the biting though. Can't imagine what I would do if my son bite me. But today after I put lotion on him he had a 30 min fit when I took the lotion away and then he almost had the same fit when I tried to take a pencil from him...tantrums have…
  • HI Ladies, Amy - welcome to 3rd tri. Sorry to hear about the scare at your DH job but nice that he maybe able to come home for a little while longer. Amanda - good to hear you are doing well and congrats on the negative strep B. Everyone else - where are you ladies...hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed your…
  • Good luck...I transitioned my son about 3 weeks ago, same room just no crib...he loved the freedom...not the reaction I was expecting but still not a bad one either. Although when we go into the nursery where his crib is he does try to climb in... I say if you are still unsure about the sex...maybe mama's intuition ( sp?)…
  • Melissa - I thought about that...but the nurse gives the vaccines so he has no reason to associate his Ped with shots...don't know what was up with him. He didn't take to his shots well at all either...I do think though he recognized where we were...after 20 mins of waiting he was like bye and started heading out the…
  • Wow, It's quiet in here... Sas - sorry your b-day was a wash out but here's to being pampered... Yolie - that has happened to the best of us...sometime the body just does what it wants...just keep focusing on eating right and staying active and you will be fine. AFM - Took the little one to a doc appt on Tues...he's…
  • Hi Ladies, Destiny - Yes, I got my UdderCover from the website, I got a discount code where I only had to pay for shipping and so I order one and got breast pads as well which I never used. A CSA - is Community Supported Argriculture it supporting local farmers by signing up to purchase there local produce and it gets…
  • Happy Thursday Ladies... Sas - Happy Birthday...I hope you have a great birthday whatever you end up doing. Destiny - Welcome to 3rd tri....I am the complete opposite in that my son was a quiet baby in the womb it's when he hit 1 that he become a ball of energy but this baby is the complete opposite I feel like it moves…
  • Yeah for daycares that allow you to cloth...the two my son went to before I got a nanny were also pretty good about letting me use cloth as long as I did all in one so it was similar to changing a disposable and as long as I provided a zip lock bag or some kind of bag they could put it in to send it home...glad you found…
