Baby-poll poll Anna had a nightmare about a month ago during a thunderstorm about a lion coming into the house. She now has a fear of both thunderstorms and lions. Going to bed at nite has been a struggle because she is afraid that a lion is going to come in her room. We have talked several times about dreams and real life, an...d the difference. We also talked about lions living at the zoo. Nothing is working... we were thinking about taking her to the zoo so she can see that lions live in cages in the zoo. Is this a good idea? Or am I setting her up for a freak out? Does anyone else have a suggestion??
(Baby-poll poll by annas-momma, 587 days ago)
Take her to the zoo, that way she will see that the lions live at the zoo and stay in their cages. It should help with the nightmares.16
88%
Do NOT take her to the zoo! Seeing the lions will only make the nightmares worse.2

Other-poll poll If you need something from the store but it can wait, do you have your SO pick it up on their way home from work? Or do you take the kids out and go to the store for that one item?
(Other-poll poll by annas-momma, 658 days ago)
If I don't need it right away, then I have him pick it up. No point in going out for one thing if he is arleady going to be out!52

I had out with the kids and get it myself! It may just be one thing, but I'd rather just do it myself!6

Pregnancy-poll poll Sorry if this is gross to anyone, but I didn`t have this with my first pregnancy: I have hair growing on my belly! Not thick, dark hair... but very fine and thin light hairs. It grosses me out and I did NOT have this with my daughter! So, just because I`m curious, I wanted to make this poll:

Name-poll poll My husband and I both love the name Gabriel for a boy. We would call him Gabe. Although I love the name, I am worried about using it because my dad`s name is Gale, and Gabe is just one letter off. My dad was a terrible man, and still is. Should I still use Gabe? Or use Gabriel as a middle name instead? Thanks!!
(Name-poll poll by annas-momma, 687 days ago)
Use Gabe! You won't even notice the one letter difference and it won't remind you of your father.39
78%
Use it as a middle name. That way, it's still part of the name but you won't risk constantly being reminded of your father.11
22%
Don't use it.0

Name-poll poll My husband and I are trying to decide which spelling of Lila/Lilah we prefer. Also, we cannot find the *perfect* middle name to go with it... I like Mae and my husband likes May... but I`m trying to think of other options. Except Hope. We cannot use Hope as a middle name.

Baby-poll poll Breastpumps. The hopital used to rent really nice ones, but they have stopped. I cannot bring myself to spend over $300 on a pump, but I also don`t want to end up with a cheap pump that doesn`t work. I`d like to get Medela, since those seem to be the best. What do you think?
(Baby-poll poll by annas-momma, 706 days ago)
Get the $300+ Medela electric pump. Even if you just use it for a couple months, it is worth the money.14
37%
Get a cheaper Medela pump, maybe a single pump (only $150). It won't be as efficient, but works.12
32%
Get a cheap single manual pump. They are only $40.8

We both really like Avery Violet, but are kinda on the fence about it. What do you ladies think? Big sister is Anna Grace. Thanks!

Name-poll poll I`m not pregnant, so this is just a hypothetical. I gave away all my baby stuff after having my daughter. A friend of mine wants to throw me a baby shower when I get pregnant with #2 because I don`t have anything. I told her I don`t know because I thought having a second baby shower was rude? What do you think?

Pregnancy-poll poll Okay, if someone can explain twins to me, that would be greatly appreciated. My husband`s mother is a fraternal twin. Her grandmother is a fraternal twin, too. I don`t fully understand the genetics of beoming pregnant with twins... and since they seem to be in Brandon`s family, I was curious if there was any chance of us having twins. Just something we would like to know before TTC Baby #2. Thanks!!

Baby-poll poll I know that most people like to do the first birthday party pretty extravagant. But how big should I do my daughter`s 2nd birthday party? Keep in mind that I live in Florida, and I`m having at my mother`s house in Chicago so all my friends and family from up there can go.
