Angel I am also 6 weeks !! That means we got pregnant around the same time

The VJ'ers were throwing out baby dust our way !!

When is your due date ?

I'm March 30th

Expected due date is April 1 or April 2 I hope not April 1..hehehe
Funny thing is i stopped trying to get pregnant and then I get pregnant.
So it was a shock for me, actually I think I am still in denial a little.
Are you having morning sickness? I'm not I feel the same except I am tired a lot.

[LebaneseMama]

My old due date was April 1st .. I was so happy it changed to March 30th.

During my first month I had alot of morning sickness (never threw up though ... just headaches, dizzy, nauseated, etc.). I heard that the second month is the worst ... and weird part is I FEEL GREAT ! I'm just getting a little tummy (noone notices but my family and husband cuz I am so tiny). I have been having a bigger appetite though and some other things which might be TMI for a visa message board.

We should totally be in touch throughout our pregnancies

I'm on a baby message board ... you should join.

www.thenest.com go to talk and click on Babies on The Brain. Those girls know EVERYTHING about pregnancy and have really helped alot.

We also have little month clubs .. I was in the April one but then switched to the March.

The April one is called Bloomin April Babies

March is called Lucky March Mommies ...

BTW if you do join im LebaneseMama on there ...

Hehehe so fun Hope you have a Happy, Healthy, and Sticky 9 months !

I was wondering if I was miss reading before but I thought I remembered reading that it was hard to get our spouces on stuff like credit cards, bills and other things until they get a SSN. Well I guess maybe I lucked out cause I have only been married for 2 weeks 1 day and my husband is now on two of my credit cards and when I get home i will try and add him to my other ones. I wanted him on atleast three so he has three trade lines. I don't know if it is only going to be this easy with HOUSEHOLD BANK but I was so happy I called and told him that he will have two credit cards soon but until I pay them down he won't be able to use them he just laughed and said he really don't think he needs them anyway.

put my husband on mine but that didn't satisfy him... he wants some in his own name...not shared... can't say I blame him..he is a business man at heart

[♥J+I♥]

What we did was when Mohammed came, I added him to my checking account. A few months later when Mr. Businessman wanted to save his hard earned money, I encouraged him to open his own account with a different bank. Soon after, he applied for a First Premiere card and had a $250 limit. Then came the Capitol One account with a $350 limit (they just upped it to $500 cuz he pays on time ). I am a shopper and he is a saver, so now he has an account that he can see grow. This helped tremendously in making our marriage stronger. He feels more in control, and he is. It is nice to relinquish some of my 'control issues' and let him worry about a few things.

...tossed out the bank acct thing...didn't go over well.... i'm sure we'll figure something out....

I know once he gets here we can do many things but since I just sent out my I-130 Friday I am sure that will be awhile. I was trying to get things going so that if for some reason we need more then joint credit cards to prove our relationship then I would have everything in place and it will have been in effect since right after we where married. I am trying to find out if we can open a joint savings account in Jordan. This way if money ever needed to be transfered between us for any reason we could do it directly through our bank account and not have to pay a third party for the transaction. This way if we decide to buy a place in Jordan as a second home we will have established ourselves with the bank. I know I am a very anxious person and want many things but I am only trying to do things so that we can have a great life together.

HSBC has banks in the US and Jordan, but you would have had to open the account together while you were there. ( I asked already, my cousin works there ) However you can wire money for free if you bank with Washington Mutual.

Thank you for the information. I guess we will have to open one when I go back in March. He was going to go Sunday to seeif he can add me to his bank account, not sure who is currently banking with but if it doesn't work then I know we can handle this in March.

[amal]

good luck with that...wish I would have thought about that when I was there.....Maybe on our next visit....

[a1angied]

I got an email back and they said that he can opne up a account since he is a Jordanian national and he can add me to it.

With reference to your email dated 9 August 2006, kindly be advised
that you and your husband can open a joint Account whether Savings or
Current (since your husband is a Jordanian national).
