Oh that's genius, I should start doing that . I've joked that we have a yours, mine, and ours family (since we do. Jaana was my first child brought her into this and all, Natsumi and Kiyoshi were my husband's kids, and Minako and little peanut /Kazuya? are ours together) and people kinda get a kick out of that and wonder how I deal with it. I really don't know other than it seems like we have it easy, these kids don't fight, they all get along like they've been around each other forever, even though the oldest 3 haven't really.

<blockquote><b>Quoting Anja[VBA2C GRAD]:</b>" I'm surprised Minako is still nursing, but she only nurses at night or if she wants comfort now usually. ... [snip!] ... rambling about it lol. I haven't had any braxton hicks , I usually get them after 30 weeks. I feel kinda lucky about this."</blockquote>




Addie nurses a lot! I have no clue why. Lol. I have almost no milk. But hey, whatever she wants!  
And I do plan on tandem nursing! I've never done it either so we will see how it goes! I'm a little nervous. Addie is a huge mamas girl so hopefully she will share. Lol.

My dr is not supportive of it. He told me to wean her. Obviously I didn't. Lol. I just don't tell him about it. I wish we had more midwives here. The only one even close is An hour and a half away. And dh refuses to let me have a home birth. :/.

My oldest is from a previous marriage, but I've been with dh since he was 15 months and he never sees his 'sperm donor' so he knows no difference. (He knows the truth but doesn't care). And my kids CAN get along SO well. But they also fight and argue a lot too. I get that 'oh my gosh are all these yours?!' All the time. Drives me nuts!! People say I look really young so they assume they CAN'T be all mine. Lol

Oh that is the most annoying thing, while yes 2 aren't biologically mine (legally though yes) , the other 2 are biologically mine. I get asked that all of the time. I also get asked if my oldest is my little sister , not as much as I used to , but occasionally still do. I am not quite 30 yet so I guess it's easy for people to think so but I really don't know. People are dumb with their assumptions though.

I am also part of the mine yours and our, blended familys mucst be getting more and more common these days  

Quoting Tweakrachie:" I am also part of the mine yours and our, blended familys mucst be getting more and more common these days  "

I grew up in a blended family, but it's kind of odd how my family's blended. My parents were on/off for a while so that's why I have a half sister, and I also have an adopted sister (who is technically my cousin but she was adopted due to my mom's family having issues and my dad just caring a lot) . I also have a half brother from my step-mom. I have a huge family that's kinda blended in some way so I guess that's why I have a huge blended family as well . Nothing bad about it though at all, it makes holidays really fun.

It's great people are more excepting these days I also am from a blended family have 4 half sisters (From my mum) and two half brothers (from my dad).
Now I have my own blended family I have two girls, my husband had three boys and we have a boy together and anothe boy on the way, Thats confusing.

I'll be 28 in may! Most of my friends only have 1 oe 2 kids and I'm on my 5th. I feel old. Haha.

Quoting MamaMia_18wks:" i didnt even know who you were because of your avi ! lol"

LOL! I'm the same way. Can't recognize people when they change their avi's lol.

Quoting Mahhhhm!; +1 & ½.:" Is it wrong of me to be miserable until this baby girl has a name? I hate calling her baby girl, baby, ... [snip!] ... names. Mackenzie, Cassandra & Abbigail. I'm a fan of Mackenzie, he is Abbigail, and we both could give up Cassandra. Sigh."

At least you guys agree on some names. I have to call my son a name that I don't even like.

Quoting BabyMamax5:" GAA! Help! I thought we had a good girl name picked out : Morgan Kathleen, but now I really like Riley ... [snip!] ... and I just kinda went with it but now that I have found a name I like DH doesn't want to change. Which name do you guys like?"

I like Riley Elizabeth better.

Quoting LoveMyBubbaBoy:" I want Taco Bell sooo bad. Ut ds doesn't feel like sleeping  "

Oh gosh I need to stop having taco bell lol

So I woke up with a bigger belly and weight two more additional lbs. I hope I don't gaine 5 lbs a week lol.

Quoting GlamChic:" So I woke up with a bigger belly and weight two more additional lbs. I hope I don't gaine 5 lbs a week lol."

Well, I haven't gained yet. lol. But I have an appointment today so we'll see what their scale says since it's different from mine so I don't weigh myself anyway.
