PS Mommies Thread!

[Burk]

Puffy~ sorry you''re sick! Hopefully DH can come home and take B so you can get some rest!

 

[snlee]

janine, I actually found a few more bumps back there. The doc said to only worry if it gets bigger or doesn''t move. I''m going continue BFing. My goal is a year. I''m going to pump at work. I know how you feel, I should be thankful I have a job in this economy, so I''m hesitant to ask about PT.

Burk, glad you had a great Vday date night! I''m glad T is making progress.

pave, glad Tyler is doing better. Good luck with your 6 week checkup. My exam was painful, only because I had an episiotomy and it wasn''t completely healed. It hurt so badly when my MW put some silver nitrate on it to help the healing process. When the pain was still there a few minutes after she was done applying, she gave me some topical pain med and all was good.

 

[snlee]

puffy, oh no! I'm sorry you are sick and hope you feel better soon. Like Burk said, I hope your DH can come home and take B so you can get some rest! Take care of yourself. Glad to hear B is feeling a little better.

 

[puffy]

burk glad you guys had a god date night. poor T. i hope she does better tonight. i just feel so bad for her. she definitely needs a break. when B walks, he walks over things, or he will bend down to pick it up or kick it to the side. but he just recently started to do this. before that, he was trying to walk through it just like T does. DH is not going to be able to come home early...SUCKS!!! oh well, i just hope he cooperates with me today.

pave sounds like Tyler is doing well. i hope he continues the 3 hour stretches at night so you are able to get some sleep as well.

snlee how is D doing? sleeping well i hope. have you moved him to his crib yet? or is he having a hard time transitioning? i hope that you are able to get back to working ok, just know that D will be in great hands.

tacori how is T doing today?

so today the closet people were suppose to come back, but i had to cancel AGAIN!! i am not feeling good at all and with B being sick as well, i just didn''t think it would be a good idea for them to come and start taking things apart. i had to reschedule. but i swear if i hadn''t given them a deposit already, these people would not bother with me again. off to take some meds...

 

[qtiekiki]

I''ve been reading, but I am not even going to attempt to respond since so much had been posted.

Puffy - sorry you are not feeling well. Hope you and B feel better soon.

Everyone else - Hope you have a wonderful Valentine''s day!!!

We''re not doing anything special; we haven''t for a few years b/c we don''t need a holiday to show our love. j/k

. We don''t want to fight the crowd.

 

[lili]

Thanks everyone for the nice comments about my lil nephew.
It hasn''t been that long since I held a newborn, but we forget how tiny they start off.
Yep, definitely fueled my desire to have another one, but then when I think about what a handful J is

, I think I can wait a little longer.

Burk--
Poor Tayva. She just doesn''t get a break huh?
W/ all that and she''s still such a happy go lucky girl.
Hope this will be the last of her treatment.

Puffy--
Ugh, sorry to hear that you are sick.
At least Brady is feeling himself now, so you can sort of rest and get well yourself.
Hehe, it hasn''t been that long since I posted pictures of J.
I''ll take some pictures this weekend and post them.
It seems like I''m always flooding this thread w/ pictures of her though.
Too bad about having to cancel the Closet people. Now you have more time to clear out your closet

Tacori--
You go girl!
You are really dedicated to this working out huh?
Poor Tessa

It''s funny how when it rains, it pours. I''m glad that she''s not hurt. Maybe now she''ll listen to you more?

Pave--
For some reasons, I thought you were more than 3 months PP.
I guess it''s because you are so current with all of our news.
If I can recall, most of us at 6 wk PP were in survival mode and usually have one liner posts

Anyway, to answer your question, it didn''t hurt but it wasn''t the most comfortable thing in the world.
I wasn''t completely healed, but my tear wasn''t that bad either.
*tapping fingers* uh hum.....where are those pictures of Tyler?

j/k

 

[lili]

MrsS--

I''m so happy for you!
I''m sure everyone (you, your children, your sister and parents) are thrilled about this news.
So does that mean you''ll contact the lady who called you for the phone interview for an oncampus interview?

 

[lili]

Hmmm....all this talk about croup.
I wonder if J has it.
She did have some of the symptoms that they described -- preceding with a runny nose and a slight fever, then there was a day where her voice was hoarse.
Following that there were nights when she woke up wheezing. I didn''t take her to a doctor because she pretty much calm down within a minute.
She''s still got her cough in the middle of the night and in the morning.

Burk, MrsS and Puffy--
How severe are the coughing before we need to take them to see the dr?

 

[qtiekiki]

Pave
Just wanted to say that my 6 weeks pp check up was not bad at all. I was completely healed from my episiotomy. I also got my pap smear done in addition to the internal. Every thing was pretty much back to normal according to my Dr.

lili
Your nephew is precious with the newborn wrinkles.

 

[natalina]

Oh, Tacori- poor little T! What a rough day the 2 of you had! Hope today was better!

 

[Tacori E-ring]

Went to another Cardio class tonight. It was a killer! We went to the mall and my mom bought T new summer clothes. Also Apple gave me a NEW computer!!!

I just have to call AppleCare to transfer the warranty (not an issue). Tomorrow...BM dresses. Yikes!

Puffy, today was boo boo free! She was actually pretty good at the mall. Hope you feel better. Maybe you should go to the doctor. Hope your DH can take over b/c being sick while being a mommy is tough. Hopefully you can get the closets done soon.

snlee, I know it will get worse. She is a dare devil and seems to not be afraid of anything.

janine, it is normal but difficult to handle. I just felt so horrible. The eye thing was scary b/c you obviously don''t want to blind your child. She seems to be fine. Don''t feel guilty about leaving Chloe. Makes you better parents.

Burk, it was stormy for sure. I kept thinking what else could happen. Tessa does still trip. Not as much as she used to but I notice that young toddlers don''t LOOK where they are walking. They just go, go, go! What kind of jeans did you get? That''s going to be my reward when I lose the last of this baby weight. My mom just lost 13 lbs (we basically weigh the same which surprises both of us) and I talked her into getting a pair of lucky jeans. They looks SO good on her! T was having a blast walking in and out of the dressing room (luckily we were the only ones there) Haha! And staring/saying hi to herself in the huge mirror they have there. I''ll have to see that movie...one day...maybe on video. Haha. Glad the date was fun.

pave, I am always so jealous that some of my friends had such an easy BFing experience. Hopefully next time will be better for both of us. I have gone to the gym 3 times this week (3 classes) which is a miracle for me. I have never really worked out, am lazy, hate to sweat...but I am motivated. My mom is here. They had o much fun while I was at the gym. Too bad she doesn''t live here! I honestly can''t remember if the check-up was painful. I had one at 2 weeks as well (b/c of complications). I am sure it was uncomfortable but didn''t scar me obviously! Have a great dinner tomorrow night!

lili, more desperate than dedicated! Plus I found out how much we are paying to belong to the Y

need to get my money''s worth! My mom said she listened well with her tonight while I was gone. I am shocked how much more she seems to be understanding over the last month.

Natalina, thank you! Now I understand why parents blame their gray hair on their children. Stressful! Haha.

 

[DivaDiamond007]

For those of you following the James-constantly-up-at-night-saga, he''s slept through the night for two nights in a row now! Probably just a coincidence, but it''s nice getting sound sleep. I am thinking that he''s getting up out of habit and, no, DH doesn''t wait long enough before he goes in and gets him. We are going to have to commit ourselves to let him fuss for at least 5 minutes before either of us goes in there and then add minutes over time. Sometimes he''s truly hungry or soaked but most of the time I think he just wants to be cuddled or is just fussing in his sleep. I know that he can go without a feeding because he is not underweight in the least - he''s 20lbs at 7 months and 29" long - his pedi says he''s "long and lean"

He was a major crab today. Cried for about an hour this a.m. while I was getting him ready for daycare and me ready for work. Had an ok day at daycare (took a long 2.5 hour nap), and then cried for about 45 minutes when we got home

He finally cheered up when hubby got home, but I just felt sooo bad for him. I think it''s the tooth coming in. His lower gums seemed a bit swollen and he''s been chomping on his fingers/blankets/burp cloths like crazy the past two days. I gave him a cold, wet washcloth and he loved it. I really hope he''s back to his happy, content self tomorrow.

Lili - I''m lucky because James is such a nice eater. He takes the spoon so nicely and opens up just like a little bird for the next bite. It''s sooo cute. Newborns are so sweet. Makes me want another right now

Tacori - What a horrible play day for T! I hope she takes it easy next time, poor girl. I hope your new laptop is a gem.

Snlee- Please do let your husband know how you are feeling about going back to work and in general. I think I had slight PPD shortly before returning to work. I was just so sad all the time for really no reason. I cried a lot and didn''t want to do anything except stay home with James. Now that I''m back at work and am getting a schedule down I''m feeling so much better about myself. ((((HUGS)))).

Puffy - I''m sorry that you''re feeling under the weather. It seems to be going around. My DH had food poisioning over the weekend which was no fun for us. I hope you feel better really soon.

Pave - My 6 week postpartum visit was ok. I had a 4th degree episiotomy and was still very, very sore and was still bleeding. My doc was extra careful with the exam and assured me that everything was healed perfectly, even if it didn''t feel like it.

 

[Burk]

snlee~Thanks!

puffy~Slow process back to good health...she was pretty clingy today.

Her cough is much better so hopefully we''re on our way. Good to know that B has started to look where he''s walking. Obviously big things she sees and walks around, but it''s the little things. The girl trips over more things.

I hope you are B are both able to get some rest. Go see the doctor if you''re not better! Sounds way worse than a cold! Hope you get better soon!

lili~No, she doesn''t get a break. She''s been through it all. Poor J sounds like she''s not having a good time, either! I would say you should take J in for sure if you think it''s croup. There are different levels of croup and if hers gets worse she would need a breathing treatment of some sort to help her. Just for your own peace of mind, you know? Keep us posted!

Tacori~Sounds like you guys had a great day!! Good for you getting to another class. Much easier when you can leave Tessa with your mom I''m sure. (my T was with my mom while I was at body step tonight ironically) What kind of jeans are you rewarding yourself with? I got Big Stars. I have a few other pairs and I LOVE them. They fit me great. Moms are funny about jeans. We finally got my mom into some trouser jeans for Christmas and they look great.....even she thinks so. So cute Tessa liked the dressing rooms. Tayva loves mirrors, she kisses herself in them. You really will need to rent that movie or something. It was sooooo good! Enjoy BM dress shopping tomorrow (as much as you can). Let us know how it goes.

Diva~That''s great that James has slept through the night the past couple nights! I think starting at 5 minutes is a great idea. Hope if he''s teething they come through quickly!!


In my good news......no school tomorrow!! Snow day!! Yay!!!

Don''t get me wrong, I love my job and all, but Tayva is sick and a long weekend will be so nice. The funny think is they canceled school because we''re supposed to get a storm. It''s currently 40 degrees and with not a snow flake in sight or any snow on the ground!

No complaints here.

 

[puffy]

lili i can''t wait for more pics of J! that would make my weekend for sure! i really hope J doesn''t have croup cause it is no fun at all. but i think that if she has gone this long without seeing the doc, she might just have a really bad cold. not sure though, i am no expert on croup.

qt how is M doing?

diva YAY for sleep!!! that''s good that James is sleeping through the night now. i usually waited about 15 minutes before i would go check to see B needed me. and about 2 nights later, he got the point. but i also knew that his diaper wasn''t wet and i knew that he only wanted to nurse for comfort. hopefully James will continue to sleep through. i hope that tooth of his comes in quickly!!

pave how was your check up?

tacori YAY for going to the gym again!!! that is such great news that today better for her and you! and yay for the new computer!!! sucks that DH can''t really help out too much more cause he is short handed at work as well, and i totally understand, but it just sucks being sick this bad and chasing B around all day. speaking of jeans, i LIVE in rock and republic jeans...LOVE them to death!!! and also love seven for all mankind as well. they make your booty look awesome!! haha.

burk a long weekend with T sounds great!!! do you guys have anything planned?

 

[mrssalvo]

burk- yay for snow days!! (especially the one''s without snow)

tacori-I know you''re having fun with your mom. Yay for Apple for giving you a new Mac. I''m sorry about Tessa''s falls. It comes with being a toddler. Unfortunately it only gets worse as they get bigger and start wanting to climb to the top of trees

lili- both of my girls had difficulty breathing with their croup. I called the ER with Lily b/c she was only a few months old and the nurse walked me through the at home treatment of steam/cold air etc. Chloe had it last year and woke up in the night and could not catch her breath. it totally freaked me out and I seriously thought she was going to die. we rushed her to the ER and they did 2 breathing treatments on her and she went home feeling pretty good. Usually, if it''s severe it''s the first night and then the symptoms start to lessen. The biggest clue to croup is the cough with is usually described as sounding like a seal barking. both of my girls had the seal bark cough with their episodes. But, other kids have been diagnosed without having such strong symptoms. It sure wouldn''t hurt to call the dr. just in case. oh and yes, I''ll be doing interviews back home from here on out

puffy, hope you and b are both feeling better.

snlee, how are you doing?

hi to all the other mommies too

 

[neatfreak]

Hi all, I have a few moments so I thought I would check in. I'm usually here lurking but often don't have a hand to type easily!

Snlee: Hope you guys are having a better day than the last few!

Puffy: I hope B feels better, poor little guy. And poor mom-make sure you get a break when you can.

Tacori: Don't worry about T, I was a completely clumsy little kid, always getting skinned knees, bumped head, etc. and I turned out just fine.

Pave: I am so jealous! Our boys have regressed a bit it seems and are having a really hard time sleeping lately and getting them back to sleep at night. Last night was pretty good though so I hope we are back on the upswing.

Diva: I've also read that moving bedtime earlier is what you want to do. And as for the fussing I agree that it's best to let them fuss for a few minutes. We've noticed already with the boys that if we let them fuss for a few minutes they often put themselves back to sleep and if I wake them up and try to feed them they fall asleep within 5 minutes at the boob because they weren't really ready for food yet. Makes sense to me at least.

MrsS: CONGRATS on the move!!! So so exciting.

As for us, we're doing ok. The boys aren't sleeping as well as night as they were, which stinks, but I hope that they will grow out of it quickly. They just always always seem to be hungry, so maybe it is just growth spurt.

As for me, I am hanging in there. I'm pretty annoyed with my body though, it's still holding onto about 35 lbs of pregnancy weight, which really sucks. I gained at the upper end of the recommended amount for twins and I was delusional in hoping it would just fall off, but it isn't. My spirits are pretty low about it because for the past 2 weeks (since I was cleared for exercise) I have been working out and eating pretty clean (trying to stick with low fat proteins, whole grains, fruits and veggies, etc.) and I haven't lost a damn pound. Nor have my measurements changed more than a teensy bit. It's so frustrating because I have about 2 outfits I can wear right now and I am too cheap to go buy a bunch of new clothes for this "in between" period.

Anyone have any tips on how they lost the baby weight? I wonder if I am not eating enough fat or something since I am also breastfeeding? I'm not unrealistic, I know it will take time, but I wish that I was losing even a pound a week or the tape measure was showing me a little love here!

 

[Burk]

puffy~Just hanging around the house today but tomorrow we''re supposed to go to IL''s for lunch and meet my parents for dinner so we''ve got a busy day. How is B today? How are you feeling?

mrss~Thanks. It''s snowing now, but still nothing worth canceling school. No complaints here. Do you already have some interviews lined up back home? So exciting that you are moving back!

neat~Sorry the boys took a step back in sleep. Maybe there are just going through a growth spurt and needing to eat. Hopefully you''re back on track. As for the weight...sooo frustrating! I''ve felt exactly how you feel!

Since you''ve been exercising and eating healthy my guess would be that your body does need more fat since you''re breastfeeding. Hang in there! I gained 45 lbs with my pregnancy so I had a long way to go and I felt like I''d never get back to pre-preggo. I did. You will too!

 

[sasa]

Hi Mommies,quick drive by to check in with you ladies. I''m still alive, just super busy at work and settling into our new place. Little B turned 1 this past Wed. and today he''ll get his 1 year check up in the afternoon. Too much to catch up but got it say lots of cute pixs!!

here is a recent photo of little B. Lili, this pix reminds me of ur J every time I look at it...

 

[puffy]

bobo happy belated 1st birthday to little B!!! he is so handsome!!! hope you are doing well. check in when you can. take care!!

burk i hope you are enjoying the day off with the family. B''s ok, still has the cough and slight breathing problems. i am not doing so well at all. my voice is completely gone. i am still coughing like crazy and my head is pounding. last night was pretty rough, B was having a bad night. but luckily, DH dealt with a of it except for when B said "no daddy, mommy, mommy, mommy." it was pretty cute. my parents are free this weekend and are going to help with B.

neat sorry to hear the boys aren''t sleeping as well as you would like them to, but they maybe are going through a growth spurt. hang in there. as for the weight, it''s going to take time to notice a difference. when i got the clear to work out, i had to work out intensely for over 1 month to notice just the slightest difference. i was also nursing at the time, so i know i needed to keep up with what my body needed to produce milk. but after the first month, the weight just kept coming off and inches started trimming away from the waist. you will do it! and you''ll be back in your clothes in no time!

 

[mrssalvo]

bobo-it''s so nice for you to check in...i''m so in love with those cheeks on little B...happy belated 1st b-day!!

 

[Burk]

Bobo~Oh my goodness, he''s gotten so big....still has the kissable cheeks! So cute! So glad you checked in and all is well. Happy belated b-day to B!! What''s new with him? Is he walking?

Puffy~Today was a great day! It was so nice to stay in my PJ''s for the day and play with T. She is doing much better. She slept a lot today and was a little cuddlier than normal but still very happy. I''m so sorry that you''re not feeling well. Thank goodness your DH helped out last night and your parents are able to help out. It''s hard keeping up with them when we feel well!! Get some rest and feel better!

 

[sasa]

THanks puffy, hope you and B feel better soon!

Thanks MrsS!

Thanks Burk, he is not walking yet but can stand well while holding on to something.

So Little B''s 1 year check up went well, only got one Hepatitis A shot. But the pedi is really concern with his weight, he only weights 17lb and 12 oz. so we need to go back to see the pedi again a month later. I told the pedi that we''re not abusing him, he is eating but we just don''t know why he isn''t gaining weight.

 

[lili]

QT
Thanks. Newborns are just so precious

How is M doing? Still waking up and hanging onto you in the morning?

Tacori
Any incentive we can use to get ourselves into the gym huh?
That''s great that T listens to your mom. Hehe, give her a few days and see if she still does

You know how kids are sometimes, they are more obedient to a new person first until they know how far they can push them
How long is your mom staying? She must be having a grand ole time w/ Tessa.

Diva
Summer is not too far away you know
It would be exciting if we all get preggo at the same time (Burk, Jas12, you, me and let''s get Tacori in too )
James is getting so big....he''s thriving.
We need more picture of your handsome litte (or not so little guy.

Burk
Yay for PJ day. How is Tayva doing? Poor baby. Thankfully the winter season is ending.

puffy
Are you feeling any better?

NF
Sorry your boys have regressed a bit in sleep.
Don''t worry, it''s a phase and they''ll be back to their sleep routine soon.
Hehe, you are not only about having only 2 outfits that fit.
10 months out and I''m still in my nursing tanks.
I hate to have to get new bras and I hate shopping.
So I''m hoping that once I weaned, my girls will go back to pre-preggo.

 

[lili]

Burk, MrsS, and Puffy
Thanks for the inputs on croup.
Took J to see the dr yesterday and thankfully she''s ok.
She does have an ear infection, so we are giving her antibiotics.
I didn''t know that the antibiotics was tasty, else we would have given her the medicine the first time she had a slight ear infection.
It''s like candy to her....she actually looked forward to it

 

[lili]

Bobo!!
Glad you checked in. I was wondering where you''ve disappeared to.
Hope everything is settling down with your new home.
Happy belated 1st bday to little B.
Wow, he''s grown so much.
It''s hard to believe that he''s under 18 lbs -- look at those chubby cheeks!
Hehe, you are right, that picture does look like J alot.

 

[msb700]

hi everyone!!!! its been a LONG times since i''ve been able to post here...i''ve kept up with the thread as much as i can and managed to read almost everything, but not post..

i apologize for not being able to respond to everyone''s thread one-by-one..but i wanted to welcome all the new mama''s and gave a big hello to the older mama''s

i''ve missed u guys tons and tons, but things really have been unbelievably busy that when i finally have a moment to myself all i want to do is flop down on my couch and veg ...

i DID see that there are some mommies who are trying for #2 please add me to the list! we havent officially started, but we''re planning on officially trying in march/april !!

hopefully ill manage to keep up more often now that things have hopefully settled a bit!!

 

[puffy]

mrsb hi!!! it''s so good to see you back on here! TTC in march/april...WOW, that''s right around the corner. how is little K doing?

lili i am feeling so much better. thanks! my voice is coming back SLOWLY and the wicked cough has definitely slowed down. B is much better as well. how is J doing? she loves the taste of meds huh?

burk how is T doing?

hi to all the mommies and kiddos. have a wonderful rest of the weekend.

 

[neatfreak]

Hey all, thanks for all the encouragement! I am so glad you ladies have #1 had to wait awhile (not really glad, but makes me feel normal!) and #2 have had success getting back to where you were! It seems my few friends either fall into the "I was at my pre-preggo weight 2 days after giving birth" or the "I''ve never lost the baby weight" camps. Obviously not in the first camp here and I refuse to be in the second one!

Last 2 nights have been a bit better sleeping wise, hope it continues.

Took some pictures this morning, they are 2 months old this week! Can''t believe it. Going to the Dr. on Thursday.

 

[Tacori E-ring]

The weekend went by SO fast! We found some dresses so now it''s up to my sister. I have to order mine around April 1st which doesn''t give me much time but I figure I can have it altered later (I''ll need a hem anyways). My mom had a blast with T. Tessa was charming, gave her kisses, lots of giggles...she has always loved my mom. Now back to the boring routine. Haha. I am going to try to go to the gym tonight. I think I put on 2 lbs with my mom here! My new laptop is crashing so it MUST be the hard drive. They used the same one. I need to go back yet again! *sigh*

Diva, 5 mins of crying will NOT hurt him (just maybe you). My dad told me from the start it is good to let her cry. That is how they get their stress out. We never had to do a full out CIO (which I feel lucky for). But once she hit 6 months and gained some weight my pedi made it VERY clear that she *needs* to sleep through the night. Bad habits can form very quickly at his age. 15-20 mins was always my cap. Plus I can tell her "pain" cry vs. her "bored" cry vs. "frustrated" cry and so on. Obviously if I hear the pain cry we go in there ASAP.

Burk, they had a blast together. She didn''t cry until after I came home and ran upstairs to take a shower. I guess she thought I was going to leave again. My plan was just to go to Nordstrom and say "Here is my body what will look good?" and go from there. I think $150 will be my cap though. BM dress shopping was depressing b/c my body is still ick. Luckily I have until Aug to get back to normal. Hope you had a great snow day! How fun!

puffy, Hope you are feeling better? I''ll have to try on those jeans too once I reach my goal! A nice looking butt is important!

MrsS, hopefully the next fix will be the charm b/c this is getting annoying!

NF, She is tough and very brave. She didn''t get that from me! Tessa didn''t sleep through the night until 6 months (not what you want to hear I am sure)! I am annoyed with my body and my baby is 15 months! So don''t worry. I know you will lose it. You sound motivated and that''s half the battle! You boys are only 2 months old woman! It took me over a year to lose 50 or the 55 lbs I gained. Even though the scale says I only have 5 lbs I swear my body looks at LEAST 10 lbs heavier than normal. Sucks but I just look at my beautiful girl and it makes me feel better. At least we gained weight for a GOOD reason not b/c we just pigged out.

But I am super motivated and have been doing Zumba so HOPEFULLY the rest will melt off soon. Be careful about restricting your calories too much b/c it WILL effect your milk supply. The boys are ADORABLE!!!

Bobo, GREAT to see you! Happy B-day to little B. How is he doing? We need more pictures!

lili, seriously. At least I can get a break at the gym! Haha. My mom left today. I''ll see her again in April.

msb, another blast from the past! I was excited to see you posting again! Good luck with TTC! I hope you have happy news to share with us soon. How is K?

 

[pavelover]

Hi Everyone! Been reading but don''t have the energy to post too much right now. It sounds like everyone is doing good.

Good to see you Puffy

Tacori, glad you had fun with your mom! so great! I wish my mom would come back. It was nice to have her here.

Burk- hope you had a great snow day. sounds fun. that is the only thing I miss about living on the east coast and being in school. haha.

snlee when does work start? I forget. If its Monday I''ll be thinking of you...

Puffy I hope you are feeling better.

Hi Q- are things better with M?

Lili I am half way there with the pics- dh took a bunch of stuff off the hard drive so now I can work on some new pictures.

neat- hope the boys are sleeping better. I am not complaining cause 3 hr sleeps make me happier than the past, but I hope it keeps extending sometime soon!!! I think if you could take some pressure off yourself re: weight it would be good- cause I believe that the bf is gonna make some stuff stick around. I was talking to my ob the other day and we were talking about diet because I have hx of heart dx in my family and she was telling me to improve the diet with low fat/etc after bf is over. Maybe your body just needs it right now? Hang in there though. What was the boys birht date? Tyler is 8 weeks today! going fast. Ineed to take some new pics. did you get any pro pics done? I just dont have itin me right now. what age do ppl usually do some pro pics for new babies?

mrs B- nice to see you. wow number 2? can''t even think about it...

mrs.s when do you move?

ok well sorry if I missed anyone
My bff is coming here to keep me company/help me as Kev goes back to work!! from philadelphia- hooray!
