      From cherylannh November 11

      Well, I have four children now and I have to say it really is not as difficult as I imagined it might be. My three oldest children are spaced about 3-4 years apart, and now my next to youngest and Shelby are spaced about 6 years apart, which is kind of a long period of time between kids, but I get a lot of help from the older ones. My oldest daughter is almost 14 and is a SUPER big sister and helper!! My next son is almost 10 and he also loves to help out! My biggest fear of having Shelby was basically starting over with the diapers, bottles, etc. I thought "How weird is this going to be since I haven't done this baby stuff for a while," but everything seemed to just come flooding back to me and now it is like old hat again and I love it!! You will do just fine having more kids and being able to juggle it all I am sure of it!! It certainly can get frustrating at times and sometimes I feel like I don't have enough time for everyone, but I always make the time no matter what! I am just so very happy for you and can't wait to see more kids in your future! Leo is just a precious little guy!!

      From cherylannh November 9

      Hey, how are you doing? Your Halloween story is too cute!! I know what you mean about everything they do being so darn adorable! Shelby is almost 15 weeks, rolling over sometimes, but not sleeping completely through the night yet. She still wakes up at least once or twice, but goes right back to sleep after eating which is good. She was a bumblebee for Halloween and I will try to get some pics uploaded. She looked so cute and chubby! Her little legs are just getting huge. At her last doctors appt. she weighed 14 lbs 4 oz! How much does Leo weigh now? My other children just adore her and are always fighting about who gets to hold her! She is such a little gift just like my other three beautiful children!

    • Close Miscarriage

      My husband and I have been married for 3 years and were pregnant with our first baby this year. At 10 1/2weeks we found out that her heartbeat was slow and then a week later, stopped. I had a D&C procedure and have just tried to conceive again. Still waiting for the results. Staying hopeful.

      Treatments

      D&C Working / Worked
      I had the D & C and two days later went through the most pain I have ever felt in my whole life. Passed two very large clots and tissue. I wasnt expecting it to be so painful and emotionally difficult to deal with the loss of our first baby.
    • Close Pregnancy

      I had a miscarriage with our first baby in May then had the D and C procedure. Month later got BV infection. Treated with antibiotics but still had it as well as yeast infection. Have been battling these infections for the past few months. Finally ttc over thanksgiving holiday and waiting for results!!!

    • Open Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility

      My husband and I lost our baby girl in May 2008. I had some light red spotting and found that her heartbeat was very slow. 3 days later there was no longer a heartbeat. Had a d&c on the day of our anniversary and are now TTC again. Looking forward to being pregnant and being a mother.

    • Open Breastfeeding
