I call my babys everyday on video chat. Yesterday when I was talking to them my mom said she was thinking she would bring them back after or in September when I have the baby. 😶 I myself would rather her bring them back already September too is far away. I know they are safe and having fun but I miss them. I told her I would talk to hubby So I did . I asked him when he would like the babys back this MF said she can keep them til next year 🤦♀️😂. Obviously he's enjoying this time. I told him what she said n he was like that would be fine that it's good because it gives us more time to prepare for baby and we don't have to worry about his my keeping all are kids when we go to the hospital. Soooooo I guess they win 😒 but I'm so bored without my kids.
My sister and I used to stay with my grandparents for months at a time. It was pretty awesome honestly
@imacat, lol, I don’t remember how old I was but my grandmother used to take me on vacation with her for weeks at a time as well.
@albertrettazariah1386 no, it didn't bother us. If we'd ever wanted to come home my parents would have come or my grandparents would have taken us home. I was probably 5 or 6
@albertrettazariah1386 Your children are enjoying themselves and that says a lot about how they are being cared for. I had to live with relatives when was just around 8 and it was NOT a good experience for me. But it cannot be compared. Everything will be ok for you!!!
My heart is sad for you and I don't understand why she has them for such an extended time frame. The 3 year old especially. They grow and develop so much and the bond they will have with their grandmother is going to make it really hard for them to adjust back to you by yourself, let alone with a new baby. Why not have them go to grandma for a few days or weeks when the new baby comes? Or have grandma come to you so you can have the help but be all together???
@albertrettazariah1386 Can you join the children at her house until you get closer to your due date? If it's safer for them there then it is safer for you, too! Where do you live? Where is grandmother? I'm so sorry you're in such a position to make this choice.
@xryztalroze no I can't or I would have been gone. I'm in san antonio tx , my mother is in burkeville tx.
@albertrettazariah1386 Well then just have a strong heart and know they are in the very best place with the very best person you could ask for them to be with. She loved you and raised you and helped you to be the person and mother you are so they will have a special memory of being with Grandma. Everything will work out and the most important thing is that they have love and security. Best of wishes!!!!!
Why does you mom have your kids for such a long time? I can barely go a long weekend without mine, even though they drive me crazy.
@love_linds, I’ve let my oldest stay a weekend with my mom. Lol she was done after that
@littleonemorning, my oldest has stayed at my MIL’s a few time but we drop him off about 2hrs before bedtime & come get him by lunch the next day. He’s not there for long. Lol
@love_linds, one time was because I was having my youngest. My mom doesn’t have the energy to take care of the crazies anymore. Lol she always “offers” but I know it’s too much
Would it be better for me to breastfeed my baby or bottle feed her when she is born in September?
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her ...
take home outfit
What did you bring your baby home in? Sleeper, onsie? Hat or no hat? It'll be fairly warm/just plain hot when I have my baby in early September.
3RD UPDATE: What would you do?
Ok, so we have these new neighbors they have been there renting the house 2 doors down for about 3 months or so. They have a 2 year old boy, he just turned two. They have asked me to babysit him on multiple occasions, just so happens I've been busy each time. In my mind, they don't know me or anything about me. Barely know my name and they want me to watch their kid because they see I have kids and stay home. Apparently they haven't had any luck with the babysitt...
What would you do? - baby shower
SO my mom has been very negative about the baby my entire pregnancy. Especially in the beginning, she said the most HORRIBLE things about me, my DH and my unborn baby. Like that I was making a big mistake, that I was making her 2015 the worst year ever... etc etc. Even when she would do nice things she made me feel like I was a HUGE inconvenience and a burden to her. She told me to definitely NOT expect a shower or anything like that from her. Fine, whatever...
@xryztalroze yeah that's what I keep telling myself. N thank you
