    well the prob is that they are playing not near my town and by than i am in week 35 or 36 so just one month before .and if the baby is like me than maybe earlier ;) so in the month 8 or 9 (wish way you want to count )

    oh i see what you mean, you might think she might come earlier. It is understandable to be a little cautious :)

    Congratulations! Being pregnant was the best time I ever had. Just remember to take good care of yourself and enjoy this time! I wanted a girl too, and got two of them. I remember being scared when I was told my second was a boy, but when they laid him in my arms, I melted. That was 16 years ago, and he is one of my most favorite people ever! Being a mother is hard, but is an admirable job!
    I am a loser with high self esteem......

    If you wanted to spend hours going through this thread you would see I went to a ton of shows while preggo.
    I went to Deftones 2 weeks before Adria was born.
    Just stay out of the mosh pits and keep off your feet.
    At least you get a PJ show close to home.
    The next one I get is probably going to be a road trip away.
    I doubt they will be touring Canada evry year like the US.
    Lucky bastards ;)

    thats a good attitude to have,
    i was dissapiontedwhen PJ scheduled a Toronto show for the week Adria was due.

    That is a good attitude to have girl! :) you know, they will always tour. ;)

    I hear ya Gen on that, there were rumors that PJ was going to play a show in Dec. in Seattle (which didn't happen) and my best friend wanted all of us to go if it was announced, but yeah, i can't and wouldn't do it b/c I had a few weeks b/f my due date.

    You could always go to the pre party if you have one close to home.
    Or you could plan the pre party and a Crohns fundraiser.
    That way you could still be part of the fun.

    Anyone else going through this?

    Adria has decided to cry her little heart out when I leave the room.
    Sometimes she only wants me, even dad wont do.
    During the day I cant always be taking her to every room i go to. Plus that would just make the behavior worse. I know shes just being stubborn. She wants to be picked up. I try to sit on the floor and pat her back. But she will just cry harder and try to grab on to me and cuddle up and cry still.
    So what do I do. i already leave her till she is sometimes coughing casue I know that this is a power struggle and she is essentially fine. Shes not hungry, shes not wet, shes not in any pain. But some books say never let them cry like that cause they feel abandoned. Others say let them cry. But for how long?
    I need to leave the room to out laundry away.
    Heck sometimes I end up having to take her to the bathroom with me to sit on the rug.
    Any suggestions?

    Aww Gen.

    Joey went through the very same thing, same age too. I personally couldnt handle having him cry all the time, so I ended up caving and just held him throughout the day in the baby carrier or on my hip. It just broke my heart to leave him crying knowing all he wanted was for me to hold an comfort him.

    Sometimes this meant carrying joey on one hip and a laundry basket on the other down two flights of stairs. I quickly became good at doing things with one hand.

    For Joey tho, it was separation anxiety. My dad is my main babysitter and we would work everyday to help Joey get over it. It started with 10 mins a day, I would leave say bye to Joey and go grab a tim's and come home. I gradually worked it up until he was fine and he was kicking me out the door to go to work.

    Its frustrating and I remember the days of having to bring Joey to the bathroom with me, but it does end I assure you and we are here for you if you need anything! Enjoy it while you can though, now that Joey is in school, he wont give me a hug or kiss before he heads to class because 'all my friends will see and its embarassing' heh.

    Gen - I'm going through that with Annabelle right now, too! The worst thing is when she'll be content and playing with somehing in her pack and play, and she notices me walking by or something. If I'm busy and I can't pick her up at the moment, she gets really upset! But it's just so cute when she reaches her arms out for me that half the time I stop what I'm doing and just pick her up...lol. Oh well, they say the attachment is a good milestone, so I guess we just have to look on the bright side! :) Plus, as I said...it's kinda sweet when she wants her mommy and no one else. :D

    We are getting settled into our new home in New Jersey now and Annabelle is having fun exploring her new house! She is sitting completely unsupported and also on her knees, which is so cute, and she's crawling all over the place and has started pulling up. Tonight, she was literally climbing up the back of the couch to reach something on the table behind it! (Don't worry, my husband was right behind her, inches away and ready to grab her if she fell!) It was scary but amazing to see what she could do! She is saying "mamamamananamananmamanama" and "daadbabadabdaadaadadadabada" so we figure that's close enough to "mama" and "dada" lol :D She still hasn't gotten any more teeth, but the little ones on her bottom row are getting bigger and cuter (and sharper!) every day. It seems like every day she makes a new face or a new noise that amuses us to no end. I can't remember what life was like before she was here! :) I'll post some new pics soon. I haven't taken any in a while because we've been packing or unpacking for the past few weeks.

    Hope everyone is doing well! I don't have time to comment on all of the posts that happened while I was away, but just know that I'm thinking about you all! I'm really glad this thread is still going strong and I love how it seems like as soon as one person has a baby, another pregnant person joins the thread! :)

    i dont usually post on this thread but i read it a lot since it's been 13 years since i had a baby to take care of and you guys help me remember with my grandson. anyway....

    i took my grandson to his pediatrician appt last week and i didn't even mention separation issues...the doctor asked. his exact words were "if he DIDN'T get upset when his whole world leaves, i'd be more worried. it means he's learned to associate mom/dad/gramma with safety and security. be happy he loves you enough to miss you when you go.'

    of course, knowing the baby loves you doesn't help get things done. what worked for my kids (and now for my grandson) were baby monitors. my daughter would cry until she threw up. so, i'd take the one that was usually in the baby's room...put the receiver wherever the baby was and talk to them when i was in another room. start talking into it before you leave the room...once the monitor has her attention, continue to chatter as you walk out of eyesight.

    Hey lady, I have been busy having my mom over visiting from Texas to help me out a little bit. she is in love w/her granddaughter and we took her and our daughter to San Francisco yesterday. We had a lot of fun! :D now i'm exhausted. Chloe has been drinking breast milk and formula so she can gain a little weight. The only bad thing that is happened, she's got a diaper rash :o It hurts me everytime I clean her b/c I know it probably hurts her :(

    I carried all my kids in a snuggly and then a back pack. I never let them cry so I could get house work done. They need a certain amount of touch each day....and if they don't get it....other problems can come down the road. It is a very short stage....one that you will wish was back once your babies are up and running in a few short months! Now my "babies" are driving, I miss all of the baby stages!

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    We've run into something...Xavier strains really hard (like he has to poop), but it doesn't come out. He has tons of gas and passes it easily, but that's about it.

    Doctor said that he hasn't learned how to pass his stool just yet...I'd never heard of that. I thought it was a natural thing to do.

    Anyone else have issues with stools/constipation?

    Doctor said it's not constipation because when we help him along (with Q-Tip), it's not hard and passes easily.
