I saw a baby in the grocery store the other day. I said something like, “aww, cute baby.” My boyfriend said, “We can’t buy one of those here.” I said, “Yeah, I know, but I still want one.” and he said, “I know. We’re getting there.” That made all my hopes sore. Is it wrong that I don’t know wether or not I want to marry him and tie myself to him for life, but I do know I want his baby, wether we stay together or not? I don’t know why I feel that way, but I do.

Lauren is ready for another great day!
We’ve definitely been trying to get pregnant. My period was a day late, and I got excited. I went immediately to Kroger and bought a pregnancy kit. It was negative! :-(

YAY! After a lot of time spent wishing my husband would become “ready”, he announced that he was about 3 months ago. And we set a date to start trying after my birthday (the 21st of this month). So I’m super excited. And hoping i get pregnant on the first few tries. And praying that the miscarriage streak that runs in our family doesn’t also fall on me…

I am living with a healthy way.
“派出所的故事”中老范说过,30岁的男人很不容易,孩子正好青春期,再过几年老婆又更年期。孩子拧巴完老婆拧巴。要是赶上孩子青春期晚点,老婆更年期又提前,老婆孩子一起拧巴,那更没法活了。呵呵,为了有一个健康的宝宝,延缓将来的更年期,在老公的严格教导下,我也过上了健康的生活。
1.晚上10点之前睡觉;
2.早餐有豆浆/五谷米糊、一个西红柿、几个水果、一杯酸奶、一份主食(根据季节各有不同);
3.吃饭的顺序是汤-蔬菜-肉-主食;
4.常喝各种养生汤,菜以清淡为主;
5.多喝水,尤其是早上5-7点之间,据说排毒效果很好;
6.做一个没心没肺的人,主要是为了保持心情舒畅;
7.坚持每天锻炼,现在主要是打乒乓球和买菜;
8.不吃垃圾食品,包括KFC,麦当劳,薯片,各种烤肠、零食等;
为了给将来的宝宝做个榜样,先要自己养成习惯。

It is tooooooooooooooo early to prepare for baby for me now :) Anyway, good beginning always make good result.Today, I am reading some magzines about decoration of baby’s room. That’s so cute and also so expensive to buy those things on the magzine.
现在为宝宝准备各种物品也许太早了点,不过早准备以免到时候抓瞎,哈哈。同学的经验告诉我,千万不要觉得还早还早,等过一段时间也不迟。结果她的宝宝提前3个周出生,结果搞得手忙脚乱。
以前买完房子装修时买了很多装修杂志,今天翻翻看,原来有好多宝宝房和娱乐区域的装修设计,很有趣,但是也很贵。呵呵,到时候DIY吧,至少得知道大多数宝宝喜欢什么样的房间,怎样才会舒服啊!
可怜天下父母(and准父母)心啊!

My boyfriend confuses me. For awhile, I figured he must have lied to me when he said he wanted kids, because he frequently calls kids “expensive pets”, and if we see a kid crying or throwing a fit, he’ll look at me all skeptically and say, “you WANT one of those?”
So I finally had “the talk”. I told him I felt like we want totally different things. I want to get married, he doesn’t. I want kids, he doesn’t. I want a house, he wants an apartment. I want to live in a clean environment, he doesn’t care if there’s piles of junk everywhere, and, in fact, seems to like it that way.
After I voiced my concerns, he told me he’s not against marraige, he does want kids, we can figure out the “house vs. apartment” thing later, and he’s not going to clean. I felt like he hadn’t heard a word I’d said, but the next day, my room mate told me that while they were out job hunting, he said something along the line, “I need to get a better job, because Peeglet wants to get married and have kids…I need to start cleaning too.” I cried when she told me he’d said that. I only hope he means it.

Today I play pingpang(very good!)to keep healthy and happy, it will be helpful to have a baby!
Talking about the gen, I would like a girl for the first kid, and maybe 2 or 3 years later to have a boy. while the policy in China will not allow in recent years!(hoping it will change in 2 years,hehe:)
Most Chinese family likes to have a boy, while, in my opinon, girl will pay more attention and time and money and energy and Blur…blur…on parents when they are getting old.
今天在小区打了乒乓球,为了保持健康,心情愉悦,早日怀上宝宝,拼了!呵呵,我打得还不错哦。
至于想要男孩还是女孩,我是希望第一胎是女孩了。如果将来政策允许,我又有钱和时间的话,第二胎要个小子好了,呵呵。希望中国的计划生育政策在今年内能变一变,不要保持半个世纪不动摇才好!
要问为什么要女孩,除了嫁女儿能捞点彩礼啥的外,等我老了的时候,陪在身边,又贡献时间有贡献钱,顺带贡献爱的,绝对是女儿,而不会是儿子,媳妇就更不用想了。(看来我还是蛮自私的啊!)
但是老公和婆婆家,还是希望要个男孩,继承香火嘛!
不过,这是过去几个月的分歧啦。努力了半年还没有结果,现在是不限男女,不限属相(明年是虎年,据说命太硬),能怀上一个我就高兴得找不到北了!想想,男孩也不错啊,将来教育儿子疼妈,事业有成,取个懂事的媳妇,一切OK啦!
加油GOGO!

We decided we’d like a sibling for our gorgeous girl and so started trying when she was 8 months old. I fell pregnant that same month and gave birth to another gorgeous daughter in May this year. Tabitha Rose was much smaller (7lbs 5oz) than her big sister (8lbs 13oz) but I was quite poorly throughout pregnancy so that probably explains it.
Labour whizzed by – only 2hrs 23 mins from first contraction to birth. Much more painful but when it’s that quick it doesn’t matter!
Here’s a pic of her at 7 weeks old, trying out her cloth nappies for the first time!

sabryn My ankle is telling me it's too late to start running now.
Something happened tonight that made me realize maybe I wouldn’t make a great single mother. I noticed what I thought was a big scab on the back of R’s head (he’s got a sizable cowlick, and baby-fine blond hair; I could see it from across the room).
Not a scab. A tick. A teeny, tiny tick.
Big enough to give me the willies, though. Especially when I couldn’t get it to move, or kill it with a liberal application of baby oil. (He requested that we not go the flame route, and I agreed – I didn’t want to burn his hair. And I had no Vaseline. And I wasn’t about to put nail polish in his hair, even if I’d had some.) But particularly when I couldn’t, at his direction, yank the hugger out.
Even pulling as hard as I could. Maybe it was too lubed up with baby oil. Even looking (R told me not to look at first, because it was creeping me out).
So I held a mirror, and R tried to pull it out. But it’s really hard to pull something smaller than a pea out of the back of your head. Especially when it’s all oiled up like a wrestler.
After much shuddering, “ew”ing, and several false tugs (he’s got less hair now, let’s just say that), I finally got the bastard. And sent it to sewer hell.
I checked the rest of his head, but thankfully found no more ticks. And we’ve decided he’s the official tick remover for any children we may have. I’d just inflict psychological damage, and pull out half their hair.
