losingjusme

regarding the relationship factor - a few seasons ago, there was a romance and the guy (Marty???) was married... he was the one that proposed on one of the live shows.. they didnt show any of the 'courtship'....

Georgia (hi, btw).. I agree.. mom shoulda left, give the opportunity to her DD

yay Mac!! I'm up... DS is sleeping on my c hest & I'm wide awake yay

yeah, that's what DH and i were thinking...

i am SERIOUSLY wanting to open my front door and let my 2 dogs out.. i know this is horrible to say, but i am so sick of their whining and barking... THEY are the reason my blood pressure is up... i wish i knew a good shelter that i could send them to...

notice i didnt mention HOW MUCH my Water weight gain was... (let's just say total gain is still more than yours...) i dont think we should obsess about weight gain right during pregnancy... i really dont... i mean 100 pounds, that would be an issue cause its not healthy, but 'average gain' is what 15-35? so you're a bit more than average ... so what. you'll drop it quickly ...

thanks for popping in Wheetsin! :tongue2: it is good to know that a routine will eventually come... he's kinda in one now, but just looks like he broke it cause he's been eating CONSTANTLY ... before he was going 2 - 3.5 hours (max) between feeds ... lately, its been every 90 mins or so... growth spurt i guess ... although he is still VERY much a peanut (preemie clothes are still too big).. i went for a fill yesterday... after losing all my Water weight (what i gained due to hypertension - lost immediately after delivery), it turns out i only gained 20 pounds... which was a huge shocker!! although i look like i've gained a good 40-50 still for some reason...

i was the same way ... i couldnt wait to hold him... COULD NOT WAIT!! now im really finding i miss our 'alone time'... something that only the two of us shared... not that i dont LOVE holding him IRL, but it's just different... :tt2: but then i see him dreaming and smiling and then i'm like yeah, its great that he's here!!! :tongue2:

i thought she had his cell number? :tongue2: :tt2:

cant have popcorn, its bad for the band dontcha know??!

yeah, just one ...

why not? we've been posting just to post for well over a year! :rose:

i agree! let's go!! :rose:

what's the deal with page 667? I'm on page 200... I am wondering who's gunna be poster 10,000...?

cool!! JUST the answer I was looking for!!! :tongue2:

PJTP - I just got a massive fill today... it's ok to have a burger & fries, right? it's just a single burger.... heh.

pjtp - found the greatest iPhone app - called Lose It ... it's a food and activity tracker... and it's FREE!!! yay i go in for my first fill tomorrow... soooo ready for it!!! oh yeah ... adding... my in-laws are coming into town to meet DS... they are staying at a hotel THIRTY miles from our house... WTF??? and they are only staying Saturday noon-ish to Sunday 4pm-ish... ummm... we are going to see them for maybe 2-3 hours ... not that I mind, but geesh!!

PJTP - I hate it when I go to a thread, read, start to respond and either get distracted by life or fall asleep...

babyfever - sorry about your MIL. i read Jaime's post on FB, so incredibly sad. she is in my thoughts. i do have my son, DH is holding him right now... he is 2 weeks old today, hard to believe its been 2 weeks already!!

i had an anterior placenta too ... it really did cushion a lot of the kicks until towards the end ... then WOW... he got really strong and i got some really powerful kicks... those kicks are what i miss the most... :frown:

skinny - it really all depends ... some people got really tight, some did not... initially, i got REALLY tight and needed a partial unfill, then i got a fill then eventually was completely unfilled cause i was afraid i'd get too tight and wouldnt be able to get an unfill due to the position of my uterus... just paranoid i guess... my port got tender towards the end and my son did end up kicking it (or it felt like he was kicking it)... overall, i had no issues with my band in pregnancy.

it's been good.. I didn't realize how much they actually sleep the first week... now he's a tad more awake... DH is really helping out with the night feedings... he takes midnite & 6 am shift.. I get 2&4. not so bad... I am tired though... need to settle into routine.. loving every minute of it though!!! :biggrin:

oh, it is!! you should try it sometime... what - you havent read from the beginning?? im sorry, we need your membership card back... :thumbdown: pjtp - i dont even remember posting about 3am feedings!! :eek: tired, but i love every minute of it!!!

pity party of 2 ??? i'll join you ... not really doing anything right now either... im drinking my cold chai tea so no sleep for me any time soon... mmmmmm... drinking ... why didnt i think of that? oh yeah, the 3am feed would come wayyy too soon... sorry you are on call...

hmmm... i thought i replied to some of these, baby brain... yikes, sorry... nope, too many wacko's out there... i jsut sent you a PM with my email ... MUCH easier to find people that way...
