my mother and father hated each other but they both love me. i think if they would have stayed together just because they had me i would be screwed up. if a couple stays together only for the kids everyone will be miserable.

No way, babies can pick up on the tension between people. Also babies put a strain on relationships and if theirs already a strain then things will only become worse!! Hope this helps!

no.. i think the kids will since the tension. and babies only want mommy and daddy happy. i say work it out enough where you guys can tolerate each other for the kids sake and move on. cause like it or not you guys will be in each others lives from here on out. but some relationships are just not ment to be reguardless if you have kids together or not

My best friend was thinking about splitting up with her hubby, then she got pregnant with my God daughter, Abby, they decided that even though they don`t get along they will try to stay together for her. They fought, they were both miserable but after a very bad fight and a lot of drinking on both parts she ended up pregnant with my Godson. Her hubby said that she trapped in, for another year, she said I hate him but I am not going to be divorced with 2 kids before the baby is a year old, so they stayed together. They are still together, my god son William is now 6 months old and their parents hate each other but neither one will suck it up and file for the divorce. The kids are miserable and when you are around them you can tell that even though Abby is 19 months old she is a very miserable toddler and her brother is a miserable 6month old. Because of this situation and others that I know of similar to this, I personally feel if the parents are not happy together they shouldn`t be, they don`t have to live together to be good parents to the child(ren)....jmo

Lol, that was me, I was wondering what happened! But I totally agree with you and you said it better anyway ;)

I wouldn`t say to work it out because of the baby, but I say it depends on the issues the couple is having. Sometimes a relationship is worth working out because the issues are not bad just trivial. IMO

It would depends... like mama-dearest said, if therapy might help I`d give it a try. but if everything has been done and the love isn`t there anymore, then no I`d leave.

NO WAY~ no one will be happy if that is the only reason! If that were the case I`d be miseable with my DD`s father. But instead made the TOUGH (now looking back easy and best) decision and am happily married and having my third child with my husband and he loves my DD just the same!

  1. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  2. 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.
  3. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  4. 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!
  5. 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?
  6. 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)
  7. 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!!
  8. 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!! :)
  9. 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!!
  10. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
