Re: Does your baby have a "lovey"?

DS has the seahorse that glows. He is not attached to it just plays with it when he wakes up or before he goes to bed. Seahorse has music and light and he likes.

Re: UGH. This is why women fail at this!! *warning, whiny venting*

I feel bad. My Medela(FreeStyle) did good for me. But then I just had to pump 3 times a day(weekdays) at work. Am sure you did this but did you change the horn size that really helped my supply? How much is the hospital pump rental/month? ETA: Whatever a WIC is can you go back there and say you are a working mom? Do they ask for proof? { I know it is not the right thing to do but... }

Re: Anyone one on here have an Au Pair or nanny?

You can check some of the websites, nanny4hire.com and there are couple more. Try googling. I think it is 300$ to register or so. Also do you have nanny agencies in your city? They can help you find a nanny. They do background check, referral and initial weeding out etc but you have to pay a fee to the agency if they find you a suitable nanny. If it is a reputed nanny agency they will find you a g...

Re: WWYD Poll (Would LOVE to have votes of non-high techers, too!)

[quote user="rather be reading"][quote user="BeebsNBubbs"]  I would do your next cycle and if it doesn't work, move on to adoption.  [/quote] [/quote] This. Try one more time and then quit. Thats what I would do. For some weird reason I still think it is a BFP. I will wait till the labs to come back to confirm my intuition was wrong [H] { Sorry I have a bad habit of joking...

Re: Is there anyone pre-TTC for high tech?

2011 summer. We had sorta decided on HT when DS was inside me but really never talked about it much. Now we are talking and slowly making decisions. One year is going to pass by pretty quick. I am getting nervous. I never thought in my wildest dreams I would do anything this extreme for a girl.

Re: New Daycare-Help or Advice?

Ha ha.... in another forum I used to go in a lady asked about day care advice and she got only lectures. It was funny! mtgirl gave real good advice. We started preschool at 18 months for DS and he cried for a week and now he happily runs inside. Absolutely no issues. DH says there will be a time he will scream when we go get him [HL] We started leaving him only half days for 2 weeks and then ...

Re: Check out my Retro Nursery!

Really stunning. Never seen anything like this. If I ever have another child will definitely do something like this.

Re: Facebook sucks.

Sometimes I write mean replies to the 'preferred gender' talks. It doesnt bother me but I cant help but think about the child whether s/he is being well taken care of. My dad preferred a girl and my mom wanted a boy. They were great parents and they always tried to hide their preference but the children always know.

Re: Was anyone else very unsure about starting HT?

It is a hard decision. Children are expensive and hard work. I have meltdowns even with one and we are contemplating whether to even have 2.(I know most people are probably rolling their eyes right now). But I remember you saying that going from 1-2 was difficult looks like you have adjusted pretty well. May be you would do the same with 3? May be we just get used to the hard work as we add on mor...

Re: when did you get

Around 13 months post partum. DS started eating way more solids and less breastmilk and then a/f came in. I was so happy I didnt have period for a yr.

Re: Yo Beeshole!

Good to know. I am going to start running from this weekend. Looking forward to it. I lost some weight and started to gain it back because I just cant keep my hands off food, chocolate and alcohol.

Re: What time does your baby go to bed?

19 months old, 8:30-7:30. Sometimes 9-7:45ish. He is a night owl. Loves to sleep late and wake up late. He doesnt like to miss anything.
