Boy or Girl Myths....My Husband
Anyone know any of the tips for the old myth ways to find out really early on if you're having a girl or boy? Something with draino or a needle...i just don't know what they are. ALSO! let me brag on my husband. He is being so great! He left work early today to go pick up the house. I've been sick all day at work and he's going home to get dinner and the bed ready for me. He's such a prince!! Mmmm I love him!
I JUST FIND ALL THIS TOO AMUSING! PEOPLE......JUST SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY AND GET IT OVER WITH....
Trust me, the quality of my work is impeccable, I take the time to run my websites and do my schoolwork (which btw I earned a 4.0 GPA, again this term!) when the kids are sleeping at night or taking their nap during the afternoon.
I don't know why women are complaining about doing the work, many women did it before us with more kids.
And as far as 50/50, when dh works outside of the home and the woman stays home, her 50% is the house, his is the breadwinning. My dh helps with the kids and the housework, but just as I don't go to work for him, he doesn't do my work for me.
And maybe having all of these responsibilities would cause others quality of work to decline or kids to be neglected, but not in my house. We have a great system worked out and my kids are very involved in it, not stuck watching TV all day (btw, how lazy can a parent get, the TV may be on in my house, but they are busy playing with their toys and interacting with me to watch it!)
Anyway, that is how my house works. My kids are well behaved and very intelligent. That comes from having this type of QUALITY time with their mother and their father when he is home. They have all day with me and they get most of the evening with both of us. The bulk of the cleaning and websurfing happens after they go to bed. Too bad others can't say the same...

I agree countrymama. I work outside of the house, which means my baby is in daycare (and i hate that). However, I have to clean, cook, wash clothes, teach, play etc when I get home in the afternoon and on the weekends. I am a firm believer in the fact that it is not quantity time but quality time. DH and I work together to get everything done. My praises go out to everyone (including myself).
Ok i must be losing it, i am in such an agreeable mood that i agreed with somone thats not even there. Cinn, stacie are you deliberatley trying to confuse me:( Sorry shedevil i agree with you:) No hard feelings i hope
I so agree with cinn and country mama. So true ladies, and old wives tales i too think thats all they are:)
i puked my brains out for 6 months when i was pregnant with my son...and i craved meat. and his heart rate was high. it's different for everyone.
with this one so far...i've been sick twice , when it didn't like what i ate...lol. all i want to eat is cucumbers and popsicles.
i am a SAHM also....the only "on my butt" time i get is in the morning from 7-9 when my son is still asleep. after that, we're off and running...laundry, dishes, floors, dusting, bathrooms, cooking, playing, errands....BUT, my husband helps too. when he gets home, he takes the kiddo off my hands for a bit so i can have a little down time before i start dinner.
i think i keep my house pretty clean, but if i was running websites and taking classes and whatever else, i'm not sure what kind of quality my cleaning and cooking and child care would hold...unless i just plopped the kids in front of the TV, threw everything in a closet and popped dinner in a microwave! lol
