Hopefully someone here will have personal experience to share.  I have had a friend who used Clomid for two of  her pregnancies.  She only had one child each time.  She was very happy with the drug and it helped her tremendously.  They did make her wait until she had been actively trying to get pregnant for a year before her doctor would prescribe it though.

 Sometimes pregnancy happens when you least expect it.  I have read that stress can sometimes be a factor for not being able to conceive.  I am not sure if that is true or not. 

Best wishes and have tons of fun trying...that's the good part!

So I have better news to report, and I thought I would share with all of you MommyTalkers.

Although my BIL and his girlfriend are currently not expecting a baby, they are now officially engaged!  We are all so very excited for them and last night when they came over to share this special announcement with us, I had the chance to see how truly happy my BIL has become.  He was just beaming as well as his new "fiance".  It was such a sweet, thoughtful, and romantic proposal and just listening to them both retell the story was so beautiful.

I am so looking forward to welcoming in a new member to the family.  She will be loved by everyone, I have no doubt.  We just need to break her in!

I hope to someday be an Auntie again.

A move and a fresh start can always be fun.  As long as you are going as a family and have a positive attitude, why not?!  A new adventure!  Seems like fun!

 Best Wishes!

My hubby and 3 of my kids LOVE Mint Chocolate Chip.  I could take or leave that flavor.

 I love anything with chocolate, caramel, peanut butter, and nuts.  Ice cream is such a treat, we  enjoy it.  We don't go out for ice cream, because my one son is allergic to it.  We only eat it at home.

Welcome!

 I am a SAHM of 4 children and I live in hot and sunny AZ.

 Welcome to MommyTalk...glad to have you here!

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the fallen men and their families, friends, and colleagues.  This truly was a very tragic weekend of events.

May all of their loved ones find comfort and  peace knowing that they lost their lives doing something that they loved.

After my first baby was born, I saved most of her things.  If it was in good condition, with no stains (she spit up alot), I saved it.  The majority of her toys, rattles, and crib stuff was also saved.  I didn't know that I was having a girl, so I had more unisex clothes.

When baby #2 came along, he was a boy...I went ahead and donated all of her old stuff that was too girly.  I wasn't planning on having anymore children, so although I had saved alot of my son's clothing, right before he turned 5 we had a garage sale and sold absolutely EVERYTHING.  One week later I found out that I was pregnant, and had to buy everything all over again.

I started saving his clothes from when he was 5 for baby #3.  He is wearing all of those clothes now, and it has saved us a tremendous amount of money.  Boys clothes just don't seem to go out of style.  My eldest daughter is 10 years older than my youngest daughter.  I have started saving a few clothing items that are in excellent condition since we all know that although girl styles change, they always come back around.

It just depends on the amount of space and time that you want to dedicate to storing and going through your old items.  I still have a few v-tech toys that I loved, and they have even come in handy when friends have come over with their babies.  I refuse to get rid of the crib (last time I did that I ended up pregnant! LOL!) and I have saved the exersaucer, pack & play, bouncy seat, and portable bassinet.  I have many friends and neighbor's that have already found my baby items useful when they have family and friends come for a visit. I did donate the car seat and stroller combo to a local church as well as my highchair.  I didn't have a swing, and I nursed the last two babies so I didn't have bottles.  The sippy cups just got themselves donated also.  I kept 2 just in case we have company that has small children.

Best wishes

I used to be a Diet Coke/Diet Dr. Pepper girl.  I cracked one open every hour on the hour after rising.  Very bad habit.  Then I started drinking coffee.  Wow!  I LOVE the stuff.  A little Splenda and sugar-free creamer and I am off to walking with my neighbor's, back to do laundry, mow the yard, and get my kiddos ready.  I only drink it first thing in the morning and with my breakfast.  Then I resort to Diet Coke/Diet Dr. Pepper.

So much for cutting the caffienated beverages out.  I was doing so good before summer started!

Great info pezzy!  Thanks for posting.  I have a Target and a Home Depot right up the street.  I will have to check them out.

I have stopped at Kohl's, and they are having an awesome sale.  Tons of stuff on clearance in every department.  Great timing too, just in time for kids going back to school.

I have been to Las Vegas several years ago (8 to be exact).  We didn't take our children.  I always think of Vegas as more of an adult getaway.  I am not really into gambling...hubby LOVES it.  I prefer to people watch, see the shows, and look at the museums.  The Coke Museum was my favorite, but now it has all changed from what I have been told, and isn't nearly as great as it used to be. 

 I have many friends that really enjoy going to Vegas, and they vacation there EVERY year.  They must have alot of fun, or I suppose they wouldn't keep going back. LOL! Whatever it is that they are doing there, they are leaving the details in Vegas, so your guess is as good as mine!

My hubby works with a man that has just done this with his son so that he can do better at sports.  You read that right, SPORTS!  My problem with this, is that they held him back from his first year of High School.  They made him repeat the 8th grade and he was an excellent student from what I was told.  A's & B's, certainly not worthy of being held back, but apparently his chances for some type of sport was going to get better if he was held back.

 I don't agree, but that is just my 2 cents, so you don't have to agree with me, heck I don't always agree with myself! LOL!

Anyway, I completely understand holding a child back in Kindergarten if they are not doing well.  Sometimes children are not mature enough (especially boys) and I have read that it helps to give them that extra year.  Education should always be a priority when it comes to our children.  We need to help them succeed now to set them with a good foundation for their future.
