Hey Babyjules!

Where are you again? NY? And what do you want to do? What did you do back home?

I can honestly say that it does not pay to stay away from this place..... I have so much reading and catching up to do i feel like i was out from school. i can only pray that everyone is okay.

i wanted to come on and post our AOS interview.

we got to the Garden City location at around 12:35pm and was called at around 1:25 (our appointment was for 1) we met wit the great guy who joked about how sure he was than jay was richie's but they may have to do a paternity test on me because jay looks exactly like his dad and not a bit like me. he asked me what was richies parents names but i forgot what his mothers name was so richie told him about the fact that he mother died since he was 9. then some other little questions were asked like where i worked and what i did and why richie went to jamaica the other day. the guy said everything was fine but the FBI name check is still pending but that should come through in about 1-4 months if all goes well within the world. All in all things are good so far.

Congrats on the wedding, kimlbs!

Congrats Georgia!!! @ your DNA/maternity test. We miss you around here, but then we know you have your hands full!!

i live in new york. i worked as a Senior Secretary in Jamaica. i also have an associate degree plus 74 college credits. i hear employers tend to give preference to persons who have done courses here. is that true?

thanks guys for your comments. i'll definitely look for that bottle warmer too. when my milk came in, my boobs were the size of dolly parton's (okay not really but almost) and the pain was horrible. it even overshadowed the pain i had from the stitches i received. thankfully they no longer hurt and i still have milk (which the baby doesnt want). i bought a breast pump and i could be there pumping from now til eternity and only 1 teaspoon of milk comes out. i therefore gave that up. Jaden latches on sometimes which results in me seeing stars in front of my eyes (ouch!) but i guess the breastmilk doesnt flow as much as the bottle does so he stops after a few minutes.

he was getting similac advance, but yesterday i purchased nestle's goodstart supreme. hope there's nothing wrong with that. will have to ask the pediatrician tomorrow. he seems to be getting an awful tummyache though which i hear is gas and at night he cries. now he doesnt want to sleep in the crib or on the bed. the only time he sleeps for any lengthy period is when he's in someone's arms. i havent had a good night's sleep since thursday and my mom and sister are helping. i cant imagine what would have happened if they werent.

he weighed 7lbs+ at birth and he seems really big now.

thanks. this baby is so reluctant to take the breast. he's just 2 weeks old and i know i should be breastfeeding, but he doesnt want it. i'm tired of forcing him so its just formula. if i'm lucky he'll take the breast for 3 minutes but thats only when he wants to sleep, and he sucks on it like its his pacifier.

hi

i have a question for all u mothers. is there a downside to microwaving formula after u've mixed it and stored it in the refrigerator? has anyone ever done that?

I have two sons,and breastfed both...and with my second son I supplemented on formula,and put in the microwave at times,but not until he got a little older I did that.My goddaughter mother used the microwave all the time,and shes fine.Also you don't need it to be so so warm...long as it room temp. its fine.

hi everyone

u probably have all forgotten me by now seeing its been so long since i've been here. i had the baby 2 weeks ago today. its a boy as i'm sure i told u. labor was horrible before i got the epidural. after that it was okay. i got stitches though but Jaden's here and i'm happy. he's a good baby unless his tummy's bothering him, then he cries a lot and that means i dont get much sleep some nights. luckily for me though my mom and sister help out a lot. thank God for them. dont know how i would manage otherwise.

i'm still not 100% better as i have not been sticking to doctor's orders. its hard to stay off your feet when your baby wants u to walk with him and rock him. i'm dreading having to leave him to go to work. i'm even looking into one of those careers where i can work from home. its probably far-fetched but doesnt hurt to try.

i remember at least 2 more persons in this room (is it a room?) who were/are pregnant. hope things are progressing smoothly for you.

take care all. hope everyone's doing good. bye for now. unfortunately so busy that i havent even been able to read all the pages, and i'm only going to be busier with the baby and all. i'll check in when i can.

havent seen much of new york since i've been here since i was tired all the time in the last 2 months. that will all change now.

just popping in to say hi guys. been so busy since i got here, and only just purchased a new PC. also gearing up to have that little boy. will talk soon.

hi gals. just got back from my monthly ob/gyn visit. everything seems okay. just that i'm gaining too much weight. i gained 10lbs since my last visit. now i'm seriously convinced i'm eating way too much. even my doc says thats too much in so short a time. anyhow not much i can do about it now. i'll just try not to eat too much (yea right). but seriously, i dont want to be too overweight.

anyhow i noticed a stabbing sensation in the centre of my stomach, about 2-3 inches below my breasts. doesnt happen often, just when i lie down and try getting up and since today even when i'm sitting down. it doesnt heard, just feels a little funny. did any of you mothers experience this? the doc says it could be a result of a little hernia as my navel is not as....? as it use to be. i honestly dont remember what he said.

can someone relate with this feeling?

can anyone fill me in on Spirit Airlines? who are they, how cheap are they, etc.

does anyone know approximately how long it takes for a permanent resident (not yet citizen) to file for his/her spouse? just curious.

ahh! puppies. how cute!

Oh my what a day I just got a call from Andre at work and the first words out of his mouth are “Promise not to get mad” well you know it can’t be good after that. Andre went driving alone First thought is he got in an accident or a ticket but praise God he didn’t. He found 2 puppies in the middle of the road. He picked them up and saw a farmer out in a nearby field so he went over to ask if they were his. Well the farmer went on for quite a bit to Andre about how people don’t have any hearts these days and how wicked society is…people come out to this area and dump unwanted litters. How sad is that! Well Andre picked up 2 of them and brought them home. He called my mom first and she told him that she would send my sis (Becky) over to help him bring them to an animal shelter. But then I get the call from Andre…he relays the whole story and throughout the whole convo he is telling me how sweet, adorable, wonderful, cute and cuddly these puppies are. Finally he gets to the end of the convo and says that he is going to tell Becky that she can’t have them and wants to know if I am ok with that. We just have to keep them he says Well I agreed that we would make a decision when I got home. So he was all excited to tell my sis that she can’t take them…that we might keep them. So I quick asked my boss (my landlord) if it would be ok to have dogs and he said yes…and my other boss overheard me and said that he has a kennel and dog house that he isn’t using…so we can have that! Can you believe this?!?! So anyways I am headed home in a half hour…this is crazy! Andre and my sis brought them over to my mom’s house (she has dog food and stuff) and she says they look like German Sheperds I will keep you guys posted!

Thank goodness Andre didn't get in an accident or get pulled over! Hopefully, you lectured him on why he shoudln't take the car out alone Yeah, when they start out the conversation w/ "promise not to get mad" you know you're in trouble I'm glad it worked out positive for you guys. Now Andre will have something to occupy him while you're at work. What better way to do it than with 2 puppies

Good morning ladies I hope everyone has a good Tuesday! I'm here at work as usual just waiting for everyone to wake up and come chat with me

Does anyone know how to post multiple posts in a row? I don't like all my posts all together That is the one thing I do NOT like about this new VJ format. If anyone figures this out, please let me know.
