  • My daughter hates it too. She has now figured out how to roll over so when I put her on her tummy she cries for about a minute and then figures out to flip on her back. My doctor told me not to worry as long as she get a few minutes a day so she can strengthen her neck.
  • For itching??? They didn't have teething tablets when my son was teething. I thought they were for pain not sure how they work.

  • upstate NY just over the PA border.
  • I have the same problem with pacifiers my son never took to them and she spits them out also, but I was thinking maybe she would like the texture I just hate to see her with her hands in her mouth. I guess its just wishful thinking on my part and I am glad to see that you call them chew toys also. My husband gets mad at me…

  • I had the Mirena inserted on March 6 and I am one of the lucky ones so I have been told I have had no problems, but my doctor did tell me that bleeding may be worse in the beginning and that I would have to watch and make sure that if the bleeding was really bad the iud may come out. Unfortunately there really isn't much…

  • can never eat just one :happy:
  • I work out from home and try to squeeze it in after dinner. I also have a new baby at home so my energy levels aren't what they used to be. I would love to join a gym I think it would force me to do my workout since I would have to leave the house, but unfortunately I live out in the country so it would cost me more in gas…
  • Take care of yourself especially after having a c section. I dropped 19lbs just in giving birth so that is always a plus. Most people I have talked to do see a significant drop in weight in the beginning so enjoy that and watch your diet and then ease your way back in. I thought I was ready and the first time back at it…
  • My baby girl was born on December 10 and I can understand the feeling of not having the time like you used to. My first child is 9 so before I got pregnant he was easy and would drag him with me and make him workout with me. Now this time around I just feel so tired so its hard to motivate myself. I understand completely I…
  • I treat it like a mini christmas with stocking stuffer like gifts. For my kids its usually books, movies, video game, or an inexpensive toy but I also include a couple of pieces of candy. Its how my parents did my easter baskets I just make sure not to buy any extras so I am not eating it too.
  • My sons favorite is Gala apple so we all enjoy those.
  • Nothing is hopeless. I was diagnosed with pcos and hypothyroidism after my first child and I thought it was hopeless too, but I was placed on levothyroxene for the thyroid and have even had a second child since then and am steadily losing weight do not lose hope it will happen just slowly.

  • Well with all the sick people I have had in the house I still managed to lose .6 so I am happy with that especially without hardly exercising and not paying attention to my food. I guess I should thank my 3 year old boxer guinness without him needing to go to the bathroom I wouldn't have gotten in all the walking I did…
  • or at the very least a walk in or urgent care. Don't screw around with it being so close to your heart. Also if your doctor has 24hr service call his answering service and talk to him he may meet you at the emergency room.
  • Veggie delight on wheat bread. I used to love the flatbreads until I found out they were more calories. I usually get lettuce, spinach, tomato, cucumber, black olives, green peppers, and pickles and carrots (if they have it I have only found them at one subway) I will usually get either honey mustard or sweet onion…
  • I have no motivation either. With all the sick people I have had, working and cleaning I have nothing left. The want is there I just can't get my butt off the couch once it hits it and I also go to bed when Jordan does whether its at 9pm or midnight. Thankfully I haven't gained but I haven't lost either. Hoping to get…
  • I gave up meat for lent just to see if I could do it. Unfortunately I haven't seen the benefit of weight loss but I have also not been exercising like I should due to a very sick child, but I haven't gained either. I could never do this permanently (love a cheeseburger every now and then) but I wanted to try it for a short…
  • Welcome I have quite a bit more to lose than that and my baby is 13 weeks but I also had more than I wanted when I first became pregnant.
  • Mine showed back up at 11 weeks PP but I had to stop breastfeeding at 7 weeks PP. I have heard from friends of mine who haven't had theirs reappear and their children are almost 1 year old while EBF. Then there is my sister in law who starts having hers within the 2nd month after giving birth and EBF. I guess everyone is…

  • I never took Metformin since it passes through your kidneys and I only have one. I do also have a thyroid condition and I have found that regular exercise and cutting out processed foods help out and I really have no symptoms. I was also able to conceive my children fairly easily without the help of medication.
  • Just had my second child in Dec. and during the pregnancy I was on a 2100 calorie diet and believe me it was hard to meet those calories and was plenty of food. I only gained 7lbs during my pregnancy and walked away from the hospital 27lbs lighter. I actually went home and weighed less than when I originally became…
  • I use a HRM and record calories burned during the workout.

  • I also waited 6 weeks and had a perfect labor and delivery. I was ready to get back to my old ways 3 days after leaving the hospital I felt great. My older childs babysitter was the one to tell me to hold off she said after her 1st child she felt great too and started cleaning house and ended up hemorraging and back in the…
  • To get everyone healthy enough so I can find the time to exercise. Hubby was sick for a week and is now feeling better and now my 3 month old has the same terrible cold. Just hope my son or myself do not end up with it.
  • <I have a 3 year old boxer named Guinness he is my big baby and thinks he is a lap dog and if he can't sleep on my lap he sleeps on my feet.
  • here is a fun fact we had friends of ours who decided it would be fun to go to Ireland for St. Patricks Day one year and they went all the way over there to find out that they do not celebrate St. Patricks Day. They were disappointed.
  • I love boxers because my baby is a 3 year old boxer, but I also love beagles my parents just lost their beagle and she was a wonderful dog both have been great with my kids and good protectors plus they are not barkers just on the occasion.
  • He is a great dog and he thinks he is a lap dog even though he is 65lbs. I love how loving he is and he just adores my father. This summer he is going to spend a week with my dad at his house. My father has 5 acres so he will get to spend time with grandpa and run ( my dad misses his dog he had a 14 year old beagle named…
