re: Plus Size & Pregers

Ok so this is the most jacked up thing I have ever read. I believe anyone should be able to have a child if they are good people and all that stuff. Well does anyone remember hearing about that man (that used to be a woman) and got pregnant through artificial insemination? Well he had his baby. He went through 40 hours of labor. I wanna know where the hell that baby came out. And the wife...through induced lactation...is the one breastfeeding. This is the oddest story I have ever read.

Quoting NikiJ87:“ Yeah...I'm pretty sure mine says 15 lbs too. And I wish I could use the playpen partwhen they grew out ... [snip!] ... sleep in it and you won't roll over on them or anything. I'm a really light sleeper anyway, but I think I may get one of those.”

its kinda hard for me to get cedric outta the playpen part, esp now that im still healing from the surgery... but when he starts sitting up on his own, then it'll get a lot easier, and im sure it will for u too... so even if u dont use it in ur mom's room for him/her to sleep in, then when ur baby gets older, then they can play in there safely and u'll be able to get him/her out of there, after they start sitting up, of course

the "man" never got a sex change, "he" still has a vagina and ovaries and all that.... not sure how the wife is BFing, but i'd love to know... lucky puta gets to BF and i couldnt

Ohhhh I thought it said he had a sex change but didn't remove his female organs.

Quoting MommyTwo2:“ Try having two boys and a husband! All I see is freakin' penis!! So does that mean the dog came home?? ”

oh yeah...the humane society picked him up...they had him listed on their lost pet hotline, it sounded just like them so I called and sure enough it was him. Cost me 67 bucks to get my own dog back from them! Freaks!

Quoting NikiJ87:“ Does anyone in here use a pack n play??? Or just a crib? I have a crib that my stepdad's parents gave ... [snip!] ... I just didn't want a crib. A lot of people I know use a playard and they like it...just wondering what y'all thought about it.”

I used my pack n' play for 4-5months. Ethan wasn't that big of a baby so we used the bassinet attachment forever. It was great.

I never used mine again really after I stoped using the bassinet part. Ethan was the only baby so I just put him under the kick gym and didn't have to worry about him getting ran over. Now this time with Noah it will be a diffrent story. Ethan is a wild child and he will stomp him or the dog. So he will have to use it..Poor kid.

I'm glad you got your dog back! Thats sad when you loose a pet. My cat got out when I was little and we never found her again. I still wonder what happen'd to her.  
Thats a lot of money! You would think they would be happy to get the dog back to its owner instead of having to take care of it and find it a home. Thats retarded!

Noah has his first cold!  

Ethan never was sick until he was lots older, I think he was close to a year old before he really got sick. It makes me sad that Noah is already sick, he is so miserable and just wants to be held. We had to hold him last night so he could breath, poor lill' guy. Makes me nervous having a sick baby at 3wks old.

Ethan had a bad cold last week, and I thought I did good keeping him away from him, but I guess not. Of course it could have been my mom who kept kissing him while she was sick. Pissed me off. She kept going "im not sick I'm just draining from sinuses" WhatEVER!  

Hi there ladies! I am a big girl myself and can relate to all of you. This is my first pregnancy and I am really excited. I am 23 years old and my husband is much older then me and he already has 4 kids of his own that 3 are grown and out of the house. I didn't think I was ever going to get pregnant because of my size and my two older sisters are also big girls and have not concieved a baby yet either; so I thought all three of us were doomed never to have kids until last week a day before my hubby's birthday I found out that I was prego. I haven't actually gone to the doctor yet, so i'm kind of nervous. I calculated my last period date and it was at the end of April so I should be due sometime in late January or early February of next year. I am around 12-13 weeks preganant, and no you can't really tell yet either because I'm big anyways. I havent really suffered from any symptoms of pregnancy like morning sickness. I get tired a lot and sometimes have cramps and my tummy hurts, but besides that i'm okay. Is that usual at 12-13 weeks? Where I found out I was pregnant, I asked the nurse that same question and she said that was normal, because my uterus is stretching. Is that true? First time mommy to be has lots of questions!!! lol.. ; )

Congrats!! What a great bday present for your man!  

Yes your symptoms are totally normal. I never had morning sickness with neither of my sons but I did have cramping.

About the packnplay...we're using ours for her to sleep in. Her crib is packed away in the garage. It just fits much better in our room and I like the convenient changing table on it.   I'll use it when we go stay overnight places since its portable...and we go overnight lots of places so I'm sure it'll get lots of use.
Speaking of going overnight somewhere, I want to go to the beach so bad with my hubby!! I wonder if I could get my MIL to baby sit overnight. I bet I would really have to twist her arm...;)

We use ours for that too, the over nights.

OMG! I been talking about going to the beach for a year now, I'm sooo wanting to go to one.    
If we get this job in SC it won't be far from the ocean  

SO anyone thinking about getting a baby swing, get it! Noah is stuffy, he has a cold. We have been holding him alot b/c when we lay him down he cries from not being able to breath. Well I put him in his swing this morning and he has slept in it all day, except when he needs to eat. So its been a real God send. So if your on the fence, just thought I'd give you that little thought.  

Hey Ladies, how is everyone doing today?
Jen - oh how I'd love to move to SC, my daughter won't like it but hey I love the south  
So my moms has gone baby crazy, she's bought a car seat and let me know it's for her car, bought a swing, bouncer and bags of t-shirts & sleepers...again all for her house (and she emphaszied that point).
It's cool though, my parents and everyone is excited for the little one as the last babies we had in the family were my nephews that died in a tragic accident in 2003(they were 2 & 1 when they died)   *thinks about the boys & smiles at there memory*
I have a bassinet that my best friend gave me, I hope to have his crib together by the time he outgrows the bassinet
