My baby weighed 7.8 pounds at birth. I believe that's in the big category. Some of my friends had baby's that were in the small sized category, weighing as small as 5 pounds. I guess my baby is big because I also gained a lot of...

slbarnes26 I was 21 when I got pregnant with and had my first. With my second, I got pregnant at 22 and had her at 23. I now have a 20 month and 2 month old. I absolutely love being a mommy to two. My son looks just like my hubby and my daughter looks more like me.

What are you having for dinner tonight? I'm making pork chops with capers and fenel. It's a recipe from Giada de Laurentiis from the Food Network. I love her recipes. They are all pretty easy and sooooo good.

slbarnes26 I wait until my son is napping or in bed (he'll be 2 in May) and I usually just put my daughter (she's 2 months) in a bouncy seat and bring her to the bathroom with me. Personally I don't want my kids to see me naked when they can start seeing better (6-12...

Anyone have any advice for me? My 2 month old has been really constipated the past couple of weeks. The doctor finally okay'd me to give her a very small amount of juice. I've been giving her suppositories, but I think she'll...

slbarnes26 Thanks, I've tried that but it didn't work. Plus I am having a hard time giving her water since she's never had a bottle and doesn't know how to use it. The doctor said that if juice doesn't work to bring her in again. I hate seeing my baby so uncomfortable!

slbarnes26 I usually buy the cheap diapers. They work just as well and my kids don't break out because of them (plus I have 2 kids in diapers and they are EXPENSIVE!). I usually buy a big case (96 diapers for my 1 /2 year old and 100 something for my 2 month old) and...

Do you think that Rachel Ray (30 minute meals) is overrated? I happen to like her, but I don't know about the new show she has. What do you think. What about the Cook shows of the like; what is your favorite and least favorite. Do...

slbarnes26 I don't know if I like her. She bugs me most of the time, but when her shows (the ones on Food Network) come on, I can't seem to turn them off.

My husband and I got married on our 6 year anniversary. We had lived together for a little over 3 years before we got married. How long did everyone else date their spouses?

slbarnes26 I'm not afraid, but I am only 23. I have 2 kids and I already have 1 white hair that keeps growing in. You age so much faster when you have kids (I have 2). It happens to everyone. I have worked with the elderly and I just know that I don't ever want...
