Probably have no ideas you haven't had or haven't tried yet. I got lucky with my daughter. She slept through the night at 6 weeks old, only nursing once before bed, until 14 months. At 14 months, she completely weaned herself.

Have to share - this happened today... My brother asked my daughter what she wants to be when she grows up. (My daughter is 8) She says, "Well, I really want to be a writer and want to write children's books. I also want to draw the pictures. Mom says this is called and author and illustrator. So, that is what I want to be…

Yes, 8 day long camping trip. I was chicken and refused to jump in the ice cold river. Have you ever been bit by a snake?

Amazing! Is 30 day shred hard?

Okay, not kid related but this just reminded me ... I was at work one day and asked my Hispanic coworker... "what does porqué mean?" "Why" "Well, because I just heard it and am wondering what it means." "Why" "Ummm, because I am just curious, I guess" "Why" "Okay, never mind" "No - it is why! Porqué means why!"

My sister-in-law was at Walmart with her 3yr old daughter and she farted - then realized she had crapped herself. She went quickly to the restroom and into the largest stall to clean up. Her 3yr says "um, mooom! Did you poops your pants?" She responds, "no, I didn't" "Yes, you did mom! I can see it right there. You poops…

You can keep your beer, I will take all the donuts!

For anyone still following this ... I just bought nursing bras 2 days ago and am absolutely loving them! bravadodesigns.com

Need to be careful for sure Fava. I had a Csection with my first and my stitches tore at 6 days postpartum. Then (this was after being given the clear at 6 weeks) I twisted to try and pop my back and tore a stomach muscle. I plan to be a little more gentle to myself this time. I had a Csection again and feel even weaker…

It seems my 8 month old thread has been revived. Just thought I would share, since it came back and all, that I did end up having a boy. His name is Jericho.

Never tried it and all I have is my opinion - I wouldn't do it just because I don't think it provides balanced nutrition. You need to be sure you are getting enough of everything so baby gets enough of everything. ... That's all. Take it or leave it.

Just have to say, your picture is so incredibly precious! Start slow on exercise and low impact. Listen to your body and stop BEFORE it hurts. If it doesn't feel right, stop. Nursing bra - just barely bought mine yesterday and I could not be happier. I am absolutely loving them and I am a large lady up top too. This…

I was scared - truly scared - of this being an issue for me. Urinary incontinence was a major problem for me during both pregnancies - so bad that when my water broke I truly thought I had just major peed my pants. I got lucky and have been fine with both kids though. Just wanted to share that my best friend had this…

Yes. Twice. Have you ever been to New York City?

Yes, only once - because I refused to do what the boss was telling me to do because it was illegal. Have you ever embroidered anything?

That's a total win in my book! Besides, 3.4lbs in a month isn't too bad.

You can do it. It is not easy but it is so worth it. :) ... I missed my 5 week weigh in. Been on vaca since Thursday and wasn't by a scale on weigh in day. 6 weeks postpartum is in 5 days now. My original goal was to see if I could return to prepregnancy weight by 6 weeks. I can tell you right now, I won't make it - and,…

No, the thought kinda scares me. Have you ever purchased something cause you thought it was cool/cute/whatever and then took it home and it went straight in a drawer/box/whatever never to be used or seen again?

I pretended like I was a friend visiting myself, lol. I said 'this is her friend, she is really busy. Who is this?' Deciding I didn't want to talk to the person, I 'took a message' promising them I would tell my 'friend' to call them back. Have you ever made a paracord bracelet?

Not the fridge but found things like this in my daughter's lunch box. She never clears it out when she gets home from school. There's been two different times I found something when making her lunch Monday morning that had been there all weekend and I threw it away - dish and all! Have you ever put together a 3D puzzle?

No, but I made 3 Mexican guys break into my car for me in a parking lot when I locked my keys in. An MRE is "Meal Ready to Eat." They are typically distributed to military during active duty but can be purchased for food storage. It is a complete meal that is shelf stable and has a very long shelf life. They are high…

Yes, I have tripped in front of a crowd. Just kept walking like it didn't happen. Lucky me, everyone else got the idea and kept walking like it didn't happen. I started laughing when my boss was giving a "talking to" as part of his morning routine. I tried to hide it but it didn't work. Luckily, boss wasn't mad. Have you…

Nope. Have you ever shampooed your carpets (house or car) by hand?

No, but I tackled and wrestled my older and bigger brother to the ground. Have you ever gone fishing alone?

No, but I backed up into a large boulder. Have you ever eaten possum?

Yes. Have you ever had your life threatened?

I slept with someone I did not know. Only one night stand of my life. Left town the next day, discovered I was pregnant 3 weeks later. The real stupid part was looking the guy up. Should have just pretended I didn't know who the father was.

Yes Have you ever been kept awake all night against your will?

Everyone is doing great! Chelsea, you are so close! Today is 4 weeks postpartum for me and I am up 0.8lbs from last week. I have been eating a ton this past week, and not the healthiest choices either. Nursing has me hungry all the freaking time and I just keep eating whatever is close and easy because I am so busy with…

Coming from someone not even slightly scared of spiders or clowns - this is hilarious!
