We were married 4 years before we had our baby. I can`t imagine not having that `us` time as just a married couple. We wanted to work on having a great marriage and spending lots of time together before bringing little people into it.

We had my son, then got married about 7mo after he was born. I wouldn`t have changed a thing (except maybe waiting a little longer so I could have lost more of the baby weight!) I think if you know you love the person and will be with them, it doesn`t matter if you get married before or after the baby is born.

i actually got married while i was pregnant and i wish we would of waited until after she came. it was pretty much a forced marraige because my mom said if we were not married our baby would be a bastard and illigitamat. : (

we have a 16month old and number 2 due in Dec. We were going to get married in august but then found out we were expecting again in may...so we pshed it back as i dont want to be plump on my wedding day. lol. so we will probably get married early next year. i wouldnt change how we have done things....just would wish to have the same last name as my children on their birth cirtificates.

I`m glad I was married first on one hand because it`s the traditional way, and I can try to press the traditional way into my children. On the other hand, if I were to have my children first, I don`t know that I would have gotten married after seeing some of my husbands fatherly contributions - or lack thereof. I do love the guy but I WISH things were 50/50 with the repsonsibilities. Ok, I`ll even take 60/40 LOL!

I got married after 2 years with my husband. He then was deployed for 4 months to the desert less than a month after the wedding. 5 weeks after he came home I found out I was pregnant. I dont regret it at all, but if I had a choice I would have enjoyed spending more time with it being just me and my husband before bringing a child in it. But I love my life!!! :)

We had our daughter and got married when she was 4 months old. She was a bridesmaid. =) The only thing that bugged me was right after she was born I was really irrated that I didn`t have the same last name as my daughter... other than that I wouldn`t have changed anything.

i was always glad we got married and then 7 months later i got preg. i seriously think my grandmother woulda killed over if i had gotten preg outta wedlock lol it also gave us time to kinda get our ducks in a row too, that helps.

We got married first but didn`t have a wedding just a stand in front of the Preacher (my Uncle. 8 years later we had a nice church wedding and 2 of our kids were with us. It so so nice. Our dd was 3 and was a jr. bride she had a beautiful dress and veil. Our son was in a 3 piece tux(it was white with tails lol) he was 10 months old. i`m glad that we married first but it was nice to renew with them. We didn`t have a honeymoon the 1st time but the 2nd time I call it our `Familymoon` :o)

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
