ya, I know. I just sit and stare at him sometimes or I watch him sleep and wonder how anther one could be as cute at he is. lol Isn't that horriable!? I always feel so bad for thinking that..

Ladies I just want to say!

I don't think so. From what I understand the second, third, or eightteenth child just makes your heart bigger. you're not taking away from the other children.

Ya, I know. My mom always tells me that!

I always tell her I Know the truth she loves me more and I'm alot better looking then my brother. lol

For all of us big women, I'm watching the Tyra Show, anyone who's able to watch it, check it out. It's about big women (400+) and stuff they do. It's interesting.

I think trying when the baby is a year is feasible. I too want to be younger when my kids are older, and I think after a year I should have lost all the weight I gain (If I even gain any at this rate)..... So I am all for it.....

Damn it, I was going to say something and now I forget what it was. I have to re-read the posts now.... grrr

Quoting MommyTwo2:“ We wanted our kids to be about 2yrs apart. So we started trying when Ethan was about a yr and half, ... [snip!] ... worried about it. Then yesterdayI was down a lb again. He said you are looseing weight on me everything ok? LoL jeezzz ”

Here it is. So you are down 1lb from pre-pregnancy weight?

Quoting MommaMary:“ Here it is. So you are down 1lb from pre-pregnancy weight?”

oh no no. I'm down from what i've gained. I have gained so far about 40lbs. lol I don't know why they even say anything other then "good job loose a few more fatty!" LMAO. Of course if they said that i'd cry. haha!

LOL, thanks for clearing it up. Not that I want to gain more than I need to but I got worried, i was like "so I could not gain ANY weight".... Never knew getting preggo woul be the one thing that worked to help me lose weight! LOL.....

My midwife wouldnt even give me an amount to gain, she said if she did and I went over she didn't want me to panic. I am going to a different one on Monday and we will see what she says.... i am pretty sure I will be down a lb or two from my 10 week visit....

I was reading some where that its not good to get pregnant before your first one is 18months because of your body needing to recooperate. How true that is, I don't know. But I've seen plenty of woman have kids very close together. My mother being one of them. She had hers 17months apart. lol

I feel like mine will be a good amount apart.( 2yrs 2months) If we had anther one I'd like to have it before I get over 30. I don't mind being pregnant at 30, but not much further in to it. I want to be done after that so I can enjoy my kids while I'm still young enough to run with them-lol
My MIL had her kids all 4yrs apart, I would NOT want to do that. Her oldest (my husband) is almost 27, married with 2kids. The middle son, is 22 and in college still lives at home, she still takes care of him. The baby is 18, a senior in highschool, still borrows her car, and has a part-time job and she still takes care of him. She is 51.
My parents are 52 and 51 and both of there kids are out of the house, and they are being able to live there lifes again. They go away, come and go as they want. Mom drives up here alot to see me and and Ethan. She will be staying with me when I have the baby for a few wks. My MIL can't do that stuff because she is still taken' care of kids. lol
