Replying to: Natalie Update I had the same problems when LO was born. I think it's wonderful that you are still trying though.... after 2 weeks I gave up. I felt horrible, but it was just too much for me to see him so hungry all the time. I think this time around I will keep trying. At first I thought I wasn't going to try at all, but maybe this time will be different. All I can do is try and give it my all! That's great to...

Replying to: ELMO #%&$!!!!! (long) Hi Emily. My LO could care less about TV at this point, but my niece had this obsession with Elmo almost to the point of your LO. My sister boughter her an Elmo stuffed toy and that took care of her constantly wanting the TV on. You might try that.

Replying to: Oh my I think I'm pregnant congrats!!! i say keep it to yourself until at least christmas day. i've kept it from my dh for a while before i've told him on a couple occassions.

want to get my mom a portable tv for her kitchen. she had/ has one but hasn't been able to use it since all of the switching over to digital and hd and all that. i really want to get her a new one but im not sure what to get. i know for sure she would want it to have a radio since she uses just the radio sometimes. i was thinking of an under-cabinet one.. but she has really nice cherry cabinets so im not sure she would want to drill...

Replying to: Fish ?? I'm not which types of fish are ok or not but Drake gets salmon, tilapia, grouper, catfish and cod. Basically any fish we eat he eats.

I am so frustrated...DB just doesn't care anymore what he looks like. It's really frustrating me. It started with him gaining weight when I did during pregnancy. Fine, whatever. A few months ago we joined the Y, and most nights if I go he wants to stay at home. So he goes MAYBE once a week. Not going to do much. He says he'll diet but never follows through. So he's got this chubby face and body, and I'm sorry, but he...

Replying to: OT-DB's effort with looks I agree. You have to just come out and tell him he looks terrible...lol. Men honestly dont understand hints. Take it from me. I'm the WORST and DH is constantly telling me "TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT!" If you just buy him new clothes, you're jst hinting and he probably wont even get it. Tell him he needs to do something because chances are, you arent the only one that feels this way....

Replying to: preggo update Wow, congrats!

Replying to: paraguard question... No personal experience yet, but I am planning on getting Paraguard after this baby is born. I have done a ton of research and talked to my OB as well. Overall, most people seem to have a positive experience. It does seem to cause cramping and heavier periods for the first few cycles, but then things usually go back to normal.

Replying to: Various Questions Try this schedule: Eat, play, sleep- repeat all day long! Then for the "bedtime" feeding, skip the play part. Be consistent. Babies need to sleep a lot, even during the day, but you will be able to "train" their little biological clocks with this method. It worked great for all 4 of our kids. Some of them took a little longer to get it, but consistency those first couple of months really pays...
