  • Thank you for sharing, I can't imagine what you're going through :( reaching out and expressing how you feel is a great start. Wish there was more I could say, grief is challenging on everyone. And there's no right or wrong way to deal with it, we each cope with it differently. You can add me for support if you'd like. One…
  • Lots of milestones coming your way! Hoping that they each fall into place without too much stress on you. Keep us posted. I'm 36 weeks today, due 3/31! Hoping for a full bake baby.. Lol
  • We are all here for you. I am 35 weeks, 3 days n I have put on 34lbs which my doc is monitoring very closely. I'm sending you a friend request.
  • March is upon us! babies will be here soon.. and yes congrats to Beezbee for her wonderful blessing!
  • I'm from Florida, definitely go to your local Medicaid office. Really just push for it. Also once the baby is born, you can apply for Florida Kid Care, they are great! my son was on it for a while and my husband and I both worked. We had to pay a monthly premium of $20.00 instead of it being free. Also look for different…
  • Well it states I was average/ normal BMI pre-pregnancy n just like the doc suggested 25-35lbs gain should be expected. I'm 34 weeks and I'm already at 35lbs. I'm trying not to let it stress me out n just enjoy the last few weeks. My goal is not to go over 40lbs... My first pregnancy I gained 35lbs n did well losing them.
  • You're so close!!!!! Im 33 weeks, up about 35lbs my doc is not happy about it :( I have a doc's appt tomorrow, we shall see
  • HOW EXCITING!!! keep us posted!
  • Sorry I cant be anymore help :( I nursed my oldest son to about 2 weeks before he turn one. I too produced a lot of milk and pumping was not an issue once I went back to work. He did well with cow milk, it was costly since he was on organic milk. Now he drinks almond milk. His pediatrician really pushed for the one year…
  • One of my friends is pregnant (she is due in June) and was nursing her daughter who is now 10 months. She told me that her OBGYN advised her to stop at the beginning of her second trimester which she has done. She told me that her daughter didn't have a hard time transitioning from mother's milk to formula. Personally, my…
  • Hi fellow March 2013 babies! I've started a yoga class, I've taken 2 classes n Im feeling so much better with my lower back discomfort. How are things with everyone going?! 2 of my friends who were also due in March, one 3 weeks before me, the other 2 weeks before me, have already delivered. The babies are doing well…
  • Lol@ DOB comment. And yes I have also seen some terrible portrait tattoos. My husband has a portrait of his grandmother n it was done by TatuBaby (she was in the show ink master), n the tattoo is amazing! I also like some the precious moments portraits but im not sure if they would look nice as tattoos. I will probably get…
  • I lost 30 of the 35lbs I put on by the time I went by to work, 10 weeks later. I wasn't exercising much, but I did breastfeed n take walks with my son on the stroller. In all honesty I was tired n wanted to keep house clean n prepare meals as my husband at the time was working a lot of OT so I could take my leave from…
  • HOLY EPIDURAL!!! for sure keeping my request to go all natural, no drugs. and yes, I kid you not I will scream like there is no tomorrow from the pain, I experienced back labor with my first son but I take that temporary pain to the horror I just read. You are one strong mom!
  • I delivered my 8 lb, 21 inches son drug-free, now to clarify this was not by choice. I arrived at the hospital around 8:00am, by the time I was in the delivery room... it was too late for any drugs, he was in my arms by 10:53am!!! in all honesty, it was the most painful experience of my life and I begged the doctor and the…
  • During my first pregnancy, I didn't really gain any weight or really show till third trimester. Complete opposite this time around.
  • Love the choices and the AJ idea too :)
  • I'm 30 weeks and I have gained 30 lbs, I hope to not go over 40lbs but would love to be at 35lbs weight gain. My doctor said it's not bad, it will be more work to lose after baby is here. He also recommended that I watch what I eat, try to minimize the junk and sugary drinks.. stick with water n healthier food choices....…
  • I sent you a friend request! hope you get it :)
  • I agree with you two fellow mommies! Getting pregnant again was and is a dream come true, our first son will be 7 this summer! I told hubby, that's it, no more waiting, it's gotta happen! So here I am, I have gained nearly 30lbs at 30 weeks... It scares me that I'm 31 n my metabolism n ability to lose weight will be very…
  • Hi everyone!!!! :D I'm 30 weeks as of last Sunday, due 3/31/13. I have gained 29lbs n I can't wait to meet baby boy #2. I've started walking to control my weight gain... It would be great to not go above 35-40lbs for this pregnancy
