    Questions for the educated crowd

    Hi there. I had my first child 8 months ago. I gained 26 lbs during my pregnancy and had all but 2 lbs off by my 6 week check-up. I have since lost it plus a little more. I've gotten "skinny" comments since probably 2 months post partum. It has to be due to exercising during(up to the 36th...

    Hi everyone! My son, Cale, was born via c-section on Sept. 29. He'll be 8 months old tomorrow. Wow!...I can't believe what I just wrote...it really does seem like he was just born. :-) I'm 32 years old, and Cale is our first child. I stay at home with him, but work part-time a couple...

    Where to stay in Cancun?

    Hi there!! A friend and I went to Cancun several years ago and stayed at the Costa Real. We had a beachside room(suite?) which was huge. We might have been upgraded, but not sure. It was all arranged through a travel agent. I was worried when it was booked because it was much cheaper than I...

    Baby Must Haves

    The first thing that popped into my mind when I read the subject line was our son's Kick 'N Play bouncy seat. We use it all the time, and take it when we visit others. If I need to grab a quick shower, I can put him in the seat with the lights/sounds baby-activated and he's amused. He loves...

    Momma's check in week of Jan. 23

    Hi there!! I'm thinking it's time for me to start participating in the check-in's. I would occasionally post in the check-in's when I was pregnant. My son, Cale, just turned 4 months old a few days ago. He's our first child, and I'm still trying to get some type of routine or normalcy...

    Who else is in the late 20's to early 30's?

    I'm 32. I just had my first child and am trying to get back my pre-pregnancy body. I've lost the weight, but I'm nowhere near the fitness level I had before my son. Even with that said, I'm much, much stronger and fitter after I starting working out with Cathe. :7 ~Tana

    Cale Brett has arrived!!

    Hi everyone!! Cale Brett was delivered via scheduled c-section on Sept. 29. My doctor chose this because Cale had been breech and is my first child(turned out the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and part of his upper body and we were lucky he stayed where he was.) He weighed in...

    Pregnancy check in week of 8/22/04

    Hi everyone!! I was such a slug last week. Weird because my energy level had been pretty good for a while, but then WHAMMO I had no motivation for much of anything that would take me more than a few minutes to accomplish. The one day that I tried to post to last week's check-in, my computer...

    Hello, everyone! Stacey, hope you had a fabulous, restful vacation. :-) Hi Jen! Congratulations on your pregnancy! When are you due? I'm pregnant with my first and really haven't done a whole lot of maternity clothes shopping. Old Navy and Gap have cute clothes on their websites...

    Pregnancy check in week of August 1st

    Hi Stacey, Yep, this is our first child. We didn't find out the gender during our first sonogram. Hubby wants it to be a surprise. He's thinking of it as the Ultimate Present. Totally surprised me since he's a total peeker/shaker/open-one-early person at Christmas. We get another...

    Pregnancy check in week of August 1st

    Last week seemed to go pretty fast. Yippee!! It was really busy, and now I think it's caught up with me. I'm feeling like a slug. Stacey, Wow! You had a really good workout week. Impressive especially when you're running low on energy and you feel like you're fighting an uphill battle...

    Pregnancy check in week of 7/18/04

    Thank you for all of the 'welcomes'!! Very cool to have women to talk to who are going through or have gone through pregnancy. Stacey - We decided not to find out the gender of the baby. Sometimes I wish we would have so it would be easier to plan and shop, but my hubby is so excited...
