professorpreggers - Wednesday, 26 Mar oh--my MIL might be related to your MIL. This is her first grandchild and it's making her such a beast. I actually had my husband move the shower location to the home of a member of the family whom MIL isn't comfortable bossing around or manipulating so I think I've side stepped the worst of it. but I've learned from my catastrophe of a wedding;) This is your first girl! You should have what you want, not what anybody else wants--I know that's nothing our MILs want to hear;)
my-lil-miracle - Wednesday, 26 Mar Lol... I know your not ungrateful girl, this is ur first Baby girl after 3 boys!! and from what ur saying probably ur last as well!! It's just a big of a deal as your first babe was!!... I guess I would compare a MIL (if I had one) to be my landlord.. just always on my ass, telling me how I SHOULD raise my baby (when hers didn't turn out that great), She's one of those women who will only hold a baby if it's not crying, and then get on my ass if I let him cry it out for 5 minutes... so I know what you mean about it's your MIL's way or no way and she'll get 'hurt feeling'.. uhh I hate that!!!! Princess theme is cute for your girl.. when is ur shower again?? You said when your 37 weeks?? I don't even have a theme, I don't think.. nothing matches.. so I hope it won't be tacky.. whatever though i guess I have never even been to a baby shower before, so it's not like I will know the difference... :)
DeeRod - Wednesday, 26 Mar Four!! That is great!! I would love to have 4 but I guess I will start with this one :) We would like to have them close 18-24 months apart sounds good to us. We def want 3 and would like them all close together. How cute...your daughter will have 3 big brothers to scare away any boys that want to get close to her!! :)
my-lil-miracle - Wednesday, 26 Mar Oh.. so ur stuck with the most energetic one lol.. when did your boys start talking?? and crawling?? sitting up??? I am sooo clueless on these things, I got a book but still need to read it... As for my shower, I got to help with little details (as u know my mom and landlord are throwing it.. so I help out my mom).. I've gotten to pick the invitations and plates/silverware colors and designs... but I guess that's it... haha, my mom knows how anal I am about details (I'm one of those girls that will Plan out with my bf the way he'll engage to me!!!)
my-lil-miracle - Wednesday, 26 Mar YOur hot husband usually works pretty late huh??? Luke doesn't pass out for a few hours a day??? It seems like that would be hard for him to stay awake from 7am to 8pm or whatever his bedtime is... When's ur next appt??? DO u have to take the three little ones with you?
my-lil-miracle - Wednesday, 26 Mar Don't any of your boys take naps anymore??? I guess only Luke would, huh? Is he in diapers still?? how old is he again? Is it true it is a lot harder to potty train boys?... Girl tell them to watch a movie so u can pass out on the couch!!!
my-lil-miracle - Tuesday, 25 Mar Ohhh... I haven't really done anything of use today! I got up and made breakfast and then got mad (some more landlord BS) and then took a shower and just wrote Sam an e-mail (he'll be back on Friday yayaaaayayay!!) now i'm just chillin on the computer... Question!! so the feet were pretty swollen last night and I woke up and their still slightly swollen, I took a shower and they swelled up more!! I don't know if ever time I stand or walk around even a little if that causes them to swell more??? that's ridiculous I didn't even eat salty things... I have to go to the hospital on Friday for some GD training so I'll ask them to take my blood pressure, 'cause I get scared about preclampsia... So how has ur day been??? are your kids early risers? most kids are!! I don't know why kids love the mornings so much
DeeRod - Tuesday, 25 Mar I was running 20-25 miles a week before being pregnant but had to stop running all together pretty early because my hip was really hurting. I still go to the gym about 3x/wk to walk fro 45 minutes and do some light exercises so I hope this helps! I really want to get back to my pre-prego weight before we start trying again...and we would like to have 2 close together. Oh well, can't stress about it yet! Is this your third?
my-lil-miracle - Tuesday, 25 Mar Hey lady, I loved the chinese interrpretation sheet!! Now if they would just make one in Nigerian so I could communicate with Sam in his language!!
snowwhite5thbabe - Tuesday, 25 Mar Well, happy anniversary- pretty soon! I guess delivering the baby on the same day IS a possibility...
DeeRod - Tuesday, 25 Mar I don't want to swell after birth!! I have this false sense that I am going to push out this baby and then go right back to where I was before i get pregnant...probably not though, huh? Well, I hope you are doing well :)
my-lil-miracle - Tuesday, 25 Mar Yeah he is!!! how old is he, he looks like 27 or maybe 30... your youngest does look a lot like him, it was funny!!
my-lil-miracle - Tuesday, 25 Mar I just looked at ur myspace pics... I didn't know your husband wasn't the dad of your first two boys... I think that's cool and I hope that if Sam and I don't work out I can find a man who is man enough to take my son and love him as his own... Props to ur hubby girl, he's a rare breed!!
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar I made a peanut butter and bannana sandwhich the other day mmmmmm... also if u make them for ur kids you can add marshmellows and it's to freaking good!! I don't know why but I'm still trying to eat this peanut butter by itself... I keep picking it up then putting it back down out of guilt!!
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar I was trying to eat 'healthy' so I got some celery and I'm putting peanut butter on it, but now I just want the peanut butter!!
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar I have been feeling some movement reallylow also, like where my underwear elastic band is, It feels like 'kneeding' like a cat would do, I know this is his head/hands, but is that a sign he has or is dropping??? I also get some lower backaches that are really dull... Oh yeah, I just called my hospital about the swelling called 'pitting edema', that when you push the swollen part with your finger and it leaves a little dent!! they said it should be okay, just tell my dr. on my next appt... that will be on April 2nd, so I think it's okay then...
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar Haha, I haven't even worried to much about panties because I went through a phase where everytime I laughed/coughed/sneezed I would pee!! it was pretty ridiculous, but i'm glad that's over... I've peed so many places.. In Sam's car, on Sam's lap, in my Dad's car, in my cousin's car, in an alley!! haha, I really hope that phase never comes back!!! I do have a myspace, just go to search and put in Molly Delgadillo... a pic of my sonogram should pop up... Do you have myspace??? I would love it if Sam was a sailsman, and I love the Nissan Altimas sooo roomy...
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar Haha... I've always kind of prided myself on my 'stripper boobs!!'.. i was starting to feel SUPER MOMMY and caught myself wearing too many sweats, no make-up, not caring about my hair and wearing nasty bras... so Sam took me to Victoria Secret and I got the Hottest pink push up bra with black straps!! LOVE IT!!! You'd be surprised with a good bra how it makes you want to pretty up the rest of yourself!! I too am suffering from a gross double chin and my upper arms can wave..lol... I can't wait to have this little one, I hope most of the weight gained is water weight because my ankles are huge!!! I only wear sandals now!!! That sucks ur man has to work so late, but at least u got a hard-working man who does his most to make sure his family is comfortable!!!
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar Hey, actually I've always had Big Boobies!!, they seem to have shrunk sometime in the second trimester, but now their getting bigger again! Do your boobs really get saggy after pregnancy? I'm going to have to bottlefeed my little man.. does that make a difference? I wear a 38D bra but am busting out ot it. At one point this time last year I think I was a 40 DD... I'm probably back to that but haven't gotten a bra to fit!! So ur belly looks like mine??? Do you even 'drop' being this is your 4th little one???
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar Also, I put up a 34w 2d pic on my photos... Let me know if it looks like I;ve dropped or not... AND NO COMMENTS ON MY FACE!! I know i look really gross, I'm swollen, no make up and making a really weird face with one eye closed for some reason... whatevs.. that's beauty lol
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 24 Mar Hey, just read your poston the week 33 forum... STOP THAT!! your not a bad mama, your a really pregnant momma, and maybe your kids are still too young to really grasp the changes that your body is going through and that your tired... You most definetly going a lot faster and doing a lot more then most of us in week 34!! Your very involved with your kids and making sure they have fun!! as for you expecting you hubby to massage you to sleep every night... TOTALLY REASONABLE lol... I would love a good freaking back massage too... try to get one of your boys to give you a foot massage, pay them a dollar or something :)
