Hi, ladies. It's been fun catching up on all I've missed the last several weeks. Writing my reply in this week's thread has taken me a long time, and I hope it won't take too long to read. I didn't realize when I set out to write a...

K, y'all. I finally got around to checking our old carseat for an expiration date. We have a hand-me-down Graco Snugride from my nephew who was born in 2005. The expiration date is found on the bottom of the carrier (bucket) part and...

On the subject of pumping, my principal is very understanding. I think it helps that she has kids of her own; although, I know that's not always the case with every boss. One of my colleagues had a baby a few months ago and she gets to...

Glad you're okay. I hope you can enjoy some peace and baby bonding time. Besides sticking up for yourself and your baby (entitled! - Um, yes you and your baby are entitled to not be hurt on purpose!) you are also sticking up for other...

Hi, there. My midwife talked me into getting a 20 week ultrasound at my last appointment (16 weeks). We weren't planning to do it because I'm not high risk and my insurance doesn't cover it because I'm not yet 35. My midwife said that...
