Doing South Beach again...trying to lose a few lbs before the big day!
About Me: Female, 35, Rochester - MN, member since Nov 2006
I have five children. Four girls and boy! My son is 18 months (on 1/14/09) and was born with jejunal atresia, hypospadias and a few other minor anomalies. My daughters are 17, 15, 11 and 9. I work full time but I secretly long to be a SAH Mommy. I would love that. Unfor ... [More] tunately, it's not a possibility for us right now. When I was little, all I wanted to be was a Mommy and that hasn't changed. Thinking about baby #6...maybe!

I nursed my fifth child for 11 months. I felt like I really shorted myself and my daughters by not sticking with it long enough with them. I gave up because of severe engorgement and nipple pain in the first few days after their birth. Due to my son being in the NICU and having intestinal surgery (jejunal atresia), I made myself stick with it because mothers milk and the intense bonding is what he needed most. It is a beautiful thing and if I had it to do all over again I would have made myself stick with it for all of my babies. I am definitely an advocate of nursing now. And very proud of myself for succeeding.

Happy Holidays! Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and find time to relax! :) OH, and the photo that you like...I'm not sure what I did to that one. I think it is just a simple vintage action that I downloaded for photoshop. If you get a CD of wedding photos with a copyright release, feel free to email me any photos you want that effect on....I'll be happy to do it for you if you can't find the action to download. :)
