Pregnancy Rules! What About You.... Do/did You Love Being Pregnant?

This is my 3rd pregnancy and I'm 11 weeks today. This pregnancy has been AWESOME (so far... still have a while to go I know!). Much unlike my other two, I've had no nausea to speak of, none of that nasty post-nasal drip that I got with my other two, I've had a bit of fatigue but it only lasted for about a week. Probably my only complaint is that my boobs are pretty sore. But even that is manageable with good supportive bras. My hair looks great, my skin looks better than ever, and my nails are like... someone else's nails! I've always...

Am I Spoiling My Baby??

I am a first time mom to a beautiful 5 week old daughter. My husband and I were told by our pediatrician that we should let her cry so we don't spoil her. I was always taught that when a newborn cries that you should tend to them because they are crying for a reason and not for attention. She does like to be held when she sleeps and tends to wake up after putting her down for 10-20 minutes during the day but she sleeps fairly well (well for a 5 week old) at night. Her GI track is still adjusting - she has bouts of 24-36 hours of...

St. Johns Hospital - Detroit

Hi! My sister-in-law is changing her OB. Her possible new OB works out of St. John Hospital in Detroit. I had my second child there and did not have a good experience with the nursing staff. I hardly saw them!! I sent my son to the nursery one night and they returned him 45 minutes later! I actually never saw the nursery, do they even have one?! I literally saw each nurse only once during their shift. I don't want to scare my sister-in-law, but want her to have a good experience. Has anyone else had their baby there? Wondering...

Pregnant with Baby Number 3 and We Have No Room.

We just found out that we are pregnant with baby #3. My husband and I are very excited, but we are concerned about one issue. Where will the baby sleep? Currently my 8 yr old son and 6 yr old daughter share a room. We have them share a room due to space. However, they are in bunk beds so they sort of have a little bit of their own space. When we purchased our home we were on the 5 year plan. The 5 years went to 14 years. Now, if you watch the news the real-estate market is ghastly. I've always said that if we had a 10 bedroom house that we...

Is First Years or Evenflo Breast Pumps Any Good?

When my son and daughter were born premature, the WIC offices where I lived provided a motorized Medella pump supplied from a medical supply store. Obviously this was very good. I know that Medellas are sold in Target but I also seen other brands. Is there an "off" brand ie, Evenflo, First Years, etc. that is comparable but without the price??

Relationship and Pregnancies

Hello Mommas and some Daddies, I have an issue I have been struggling with. I am planning on taking the plunge into the dating world after a 7 years(roughly) hiatus. My issue isn't with dating its what could possibly come after. I'm not exactly opposed to being pregnant again but I'm not busting down doors to get there either. My issue is with the idea of getting pregnant. I have a son who I was single when I found out I was pregnant with and well lets just say it wasn't an enjoyable experience for me (on top of being alone and pregnant...
