What would you do with $25,000 If you received an extra $25,000. What would you do with it? ?

Racial nickname I sometimes call my lo monkey. To me he looks like a little monkey. My so says it's racist and offensive. What do you think?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

This is a big tip ! Bring cough drops , during labor your mouth gets dry and your not able to drink . I probably went through a half of a bag . I wish I would of brought bigger under wear ! ( my hips got wider after and I was unable to fit my own )

And labor hurts but I went natural. If you think you can take then pain then you probably can . I left the house being 7 cm dilated and not even knowing it . Take as much pain as you can from contractions as you can before leaving the house . Other wise you'll just be at the hospital for 16 hours . Wait till contracts are 3-4 mins apart

Buy some granny panties that come up over your belly button. For me it wasn't about my hips getting wider it's that you don't want anything close to your incision. Find out if he hospital gives you a belly shaper. If they don't get one and put it in as soon as you can. It was a life saver. And make sure to stay on top of your pain meds. My nurses kept "forgetting" to give me mine. I had to remind them and by then I was already in pain.

Is there a reason they're doing a c section??

@valrocks, I'm high risk & my doc doesn't want to risk me giving birth naturally. the belly shaper won't irritate the incision? I have a waist trainer, will that work?

The belly shaper fits perfectly. Is the waist trainer Velcro or hook and eye?? It needs to be very adjustable. Your belly will look about 6month pregnant right after and shrink down in a few days. The one they gave me in the hospital was with Velcro. I bought one with hook and eye after 4 weeks

the one I have is hook and eye. they offer the belly shapers at hospitals? if so I'll just use that one starting out. @valrocks

Mine did. Put it in as soon as you can and wear it all the time. I only took mine off to shower.
