Baby Corner

[Susita 175]

Anna comes home tomorrow night! Thanks guys for all the congratulations

My milk also came in and holy cow do I have a lot of it. Yesterday I brought enough for all her feedings, they only had to give her a little formula after 1 or 2 of them. Today I think I have surplus to bring them so I may be bringing some home when I pick her up tomorrow.

I just have to get her out of the lazy habit of taking a bottle, she nurses but getsd really frustrated in the beginning because it doesn't come out instantaneously. Luis got to feed her a bottle yesterday it was too cute. I like pumps... And yeah I'm using the Medela pump and its really good I'm glad I bought it!

What a beautiful little baby, Sus! Congrats

Staashi - I lolled for real at your 'playground' comment

[Autumnchik 6]

Hey guys I was away at a conference for a few days and then came home to a sick baby (fever, puking, diarrhea), so I haven't had much time to check VJ.

Congrats Susita ... she is so beautiful.

Happy Bunny - Glad to hear the tests came back with good results. I remember being anxious during the first trimester, waiting for the results of the nuchal tube screening. I know that next time I have a child, I will likely be offered lots of tests, because I will be in the high risk pregnancy category because of age (I am now 35 and who knows how old I will be when we conceive again) and then also because Declan had some health problems.

So, who here is on Facebook? I know I have a bunch of you on my friends list, and I love getting to see all the baby pics. If anyone else wants to add me, feel free to PM me

Anyhoo, yeah anything over 35 is 'Advanced Maternal Age'. I don't know if I said this already here, it's kinda funny though, but the whole 'AMA' thing sounds soooo old to me. We all joke about it. Then I was watching some show about some late 50-something year old lady who decided to have a baby (with her previously frozen fertilized eggs),...well, they did this whole story on her, and in between shots of her, the mesg popped up on the screen 'Lady X is ADVANCED MATERNAL AGE' I was like 'oh noes!' hahahha. I talked to the tv 'yeah yeah lady, join the effing club'

Congrats Susita ... she is a cuty! Your story scares me though. I'm about 8-9 weeks to go and now I'm so scrare. Is it also true you likely to poop while pushing?

[Vi Mazzella 4]

Susita@ I'm so happy for you, I remembr when Sofia spent almost two weeks at the NICU, it was a real pain in the @ss,the boys must be so excited .

I got an episiotomy an to be honest I didn't feel anything,it just bothered me a little bit when I had to go pee.

Anna@ I had to push for just 30 minutes and I rememberd that I had this urge to poop but in my case it was just the feeling, but I heard stories of ladies that had to go while pushing, it happens...

I'm right there with ya in the 'advanced maternal age'. I can't ever fathom having another - I have not enjoyed pregnancy!

i want to buy a ride on for Ben, but am not sure which one...

this:

but he already knows how to walk so maybe this:

this one he can use his feet on the ground or not

[Eveline 9]

Adam looooves the second choice. He's always in it when were at friend's house who has this one.

[Nessa 23]

yeah i think i'll get that one. it says 1 1/2 years up but he can still go for a ride now and then when he's bigger he can use it with his feet on the ground like the flintstones

[Mommy2ZaidnSalma 11]

I definitly think the Cozy Coupe Car is a better investment. Zaid loves his. It will last you much longer than the push toy

[tnh9479 1]

We bought the push toy used and my two just are not interested in it at all. When we went to a friend's second birthday, they LOVED playing in his car. Sounds like the car is a huge "baby thumbs up".

[Vi Mazzella 4]

Go for the car Nessa!

[Autumnchik 6]

I say go for the car too Nessa. My mom got Declan a push toy/ride on ... he never pushed it and only liked the riding on part (which is hard now because he is too tall for it).

[Susita 175]

My boys had the car, and they loved it. They did have the push and sit toys too and they liked them for sure... but the car was a bigger hit.

It's funny because out of all the toys they had their favorite toy was this toy vacuum... when you pushed it it went "pop pop pop" but that only became a hit when they learned how to walk.
