I tested negative for a week before I tested positive. My 2 year old is sleeping in the next room. I knew I was pregnant...I felt completely different. Exhausted, boobs hurting. If you feel significantly different than normal, you probably are just early enough that the hcg isn't registering on the tests. Wait a few more days and test again. A friend once said to me 'there are no false positives...but definitely some false negatives.' [ Reply | More ]

Honestly, this is why I think being a SAHM (when dc are under 5) is harder than being a WOHM. In *most* cases, at a desk job, your office is quiet, you get a half hour lunch break of peace and quiet, and you can use the bathroom throughout the day without little people knocking on the door or barging in. Now, there are some high high powered jobs that are probably more stressful and hectic than a day with small children, but the average job is more restful and sanity-preserving, IMO [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] I asked my nanny if she would be ok coming to our house in CT with me on Friday mornings in the car (about 1 hour) over the summer. My plan is that I will work from home and do some grocery shopping and then take her to the train when I pick up DH friday night. She won't be working any extra hours on fridays and we will obviously pay her ticket. She seemed reluctant or hesitant. She is fairly new but GREAT and I don't want to impose and now not sure if I am asking something that I shouldn't have. What do you think? 22 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

The only way you will know what she's thinking it to ask her. Do it in as gentle a way as possible, tell her that you really respect her and you want things to work out for both of you, but you need more information about what is bothering her about this idea b/c it's not adding to her workday at all. If she just says, "I'm just not comfortable," go through the list (car ride? in an unfamiliar place? away from social scene?) and ask her which part bothers her. [ Reply | More ]

For example, I don't spend excessively on clothing, handbags, etc. My husband and I have our priority categories (me - grooming, him - going out) so our splurges are in those areas. With regards to vacation, eating out, transportation, dry cleaning, groceries, even gas - we try to make sure we are discriminating in how we spend our money. At this phase though, I'm pretty sure once we have kids the 35% level of savings will be reduced drastically but this is one of the reasons we are trying hard to save now while we still can.

People in Chicago have kids earlier. Just so you know. But what I would recommend is that when you decide to have your kids, move to the neighborhood you want to be in right before. You will meet a bunch of new moms once you have your first kid. And you want to stay living in that area afterwards as you'll most likely form strong bonds. Not everyone is this way, but that's how it worked out for me. I'm incredibly close to about 6 women I met in a neighborhood mom's group and I'd hate to let go of all the support I have with them by moving neighborhoods now. [ Reply | More ]

The more you exercise (cardio)the hungrier you get. 3,500 caloric deficit=1lb weight loss. Find out how much your body needs to maintain then create a 500calorie caloric daily deficit to lose a pound a week.Good luck [ Reply | More ]

OP - thanks for this. So, just burning 500 calories a day on the elliptical should take care of things, right, even if I don't change anything else? [ Reply | More ]

for me it is much more exercise - intense exercise makes me less hungry and more motivated, plus it builds muscle which keeps my metabolism humming. [ Reply | More ]

not sure how much you have to lose, but I've been really happy with Weight Watchers online. I'm down 13 pounds in 7 weeks and feel amazing. I don't feel at all like I'm "dieting" and have just really learned to make better habits and choices. [ Reply | More ]

Good! The only way to deal "with" a narcissist (or sociopath) is to get as far away from the creature as possible. [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] I need something fun for a small group of people in their 20s-30s on Friday night. Any ideas? A fun (but not pricey) restaurant? An event or cool bar/music/comedy venue? I'm still new to the city and drawing a blank. 5 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]
