Guest guest Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 I truely believe childern are a gift from above but that is my belief that in no way means it is right for everyone . Every one has there own to believe in and there own life to make . What is right for me in no way might be right for others. I am a foster parent to beautlifull little girls as well as have 3 of my own and one step son . I have great admiration for people who adopt and just as much for those who know that kids are not right for them . It is all about personal choice . Thank god we can make the choice for ourselfs.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 hey, for those who may be afraid of weight gain during pregnancy; I just gained 1 pound!! I weighed 250 starting out and would fluxuate between gang 1-3 pounds during the entire thing. After it was all said and done;(day before c-section) I had only gained 1 pound. The afterbirth and my beautiful daughter coming out made me 20 pounds lighter!! Now, I did gain that back:( But I'm not scared of the weight. I know I ate what I wanted and did watch a few things but all in all, it was a great experience!

I have yet to find one single man who has wanted to stay with me for any period of time. I've lost almost 140 lbs and haven't had any change in my social life whatsoever. I lost this weight for ME but hoped I would have some fringe benefits. So far, nothing.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 The only time I did loose weight was while I was pg. My first pg was with twins and I lost about 20 pounds due to vommiting. My second pg I lost 5. My third I lost 37 pounds (had a very very difficult pg, with preterm and heavy vommiting 8 hospitalizations) and my last I lost 5. My babies were big for there gestation. My twins were born 15 weeks early and almost 2 lbs. My first ds was 6 weeks early and weighed 6 lbs 12 ounces. my second ds which was my hardes pg weighed 8 lbs 2 ounces and my last baby weighed 8 lbs 4 ounces and was 4 weeks early.
