specifically to jenni6485

jenni...i have read your posts before and it sounds like you are in no kind of environment to bring a child into. i hope that for your baby's sake you figure out something better for it.
babies are a precious gift...the most important thing you will ever have.
you need to eat. you're pregnant! there are going to be food that you don't like right now, but that will go away afterwards. you can't expect your body to stay the same. all the stuff you love...yogurt and fruit and milk...EAT IT! those are some of the best things you can eat for your baby.
if you're having morning sickness, eat small meals OFTEN instead on larger meals once or twice a day! don't just stop eating. make sure you take your prenatals and keep hydrated. there are some days when i don't want to eat anything, but i do. nothing is appealing to me right now. but i find something and i eat it. FOR MY BABY! when you become pregnant, it's not about you anymore. remember that.
oh, and you you been to your doctor??? your OB is the first person you should be talking to about all of this...not strangers on a website.

so what is it you are trying to say? just cuz she was in a bad situation she wont be a good mother?are u saying she shouldnt have the baby? i dont think she was referring to becoming fat, so i guess i dont know where you got that she doesnt want her body to change? maybe she's looking 4 friends 2 talk 2. and if you have read her previous posts, she has been 2 the dr, many x's.  she was asking what she could eat, so that the things she did find appealing she wouldnt get sick of. with your pregnancies, you never had food adversions?

from what i read she gave nothing but good advice.......and everyone has told her to leave her abusive boyfriend......what is so bad about that? should she stay? i think she gave several good recommendations as far as food goes. did i miss something?

simma down girlie! this is an OPEN FORUM. she asked a question, i gave my opinion. i'm not harping on her for anything. all i said was she needs to re-think bringing her baby into an abusive situation.
with my pregnancies i had/have MANY food aversions...or did YOU not READ what I wrote? she can eat whatever the hell she wants to...she's got a mind of her own! i've never heard of a pregnant woman asking OTHER PEOPLE what her body can handle.
i was simply giving my opinion. and in my opinion, i think YOU are being a bit judgemental and defensive towards me for no reason. i was NOT addressing YOU with what I wrote to HER.
however, I will to say to you...GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE! if jenni has something to say to me, she will. YOU are NOT her keeper.

ya ha ha you guys are pretty funny! high horse, i think not. maybe jenni and i are friends. maybe you should have answered her in her post when she asked the question. i know this is an OPEN FORUM. i am not being judgmental or defensive of you, the poor girl didnt come here looking for all of your critisism. as my nic states, every one should get a second chance in life to make things right.

oh it's also nice you have your "followers" to come and show their support. what about jenni? she should have someone supporting her dont ya think

it's called constructive criticism. it's not meant to be negative, but to be supportive in a somewhat firm way.
i never told her she was doing anything wrong. she asked for help/suggestions/opinions...i gave HER mine.
why are your readung something that was entitled "specifically to jenni6485" anyway?
if you are her friend...that's great! everyone needs goodfriends. why aren't you helping her thru this instead of worrying what I have to say? it was addressed to her, not you.
there, i've said my peace.
jenni...good luck with everything sweetie.

ya know, we HAVE been supporting her (including myself). we have given her advice since day 1, someone has offered to have her stay with a family member a while back who lives right near jenni, someone has provided her with names and numbers of a wonderful place that she can go. she has been posting for so long that those origional posts are not there. there are a few here who are tired of her complaining and her not acting on our advice. i will tell you this.. id rather she post and complain then not hear from her and worry something terrible has happened.

why are you SO angry? you said, what if you are friends w. jenni? if so, then why are you expending so much negative energy towards us and not putting that energy into helping her? or are you her?

As soon as I saw the Second Chance I KNEW it was HER!!! And when she started attacking Country Mama it just confirmed it.
Jenni-- If you wanted to come and pretend to be someone else you shouldn't have been so obvious. And like kjsk said, you have been offered plenty of suppost and help and yes, some of us would rather see you here and get irritated with you then to have you disappear so that we can just wonder and worry over you. But you REALLY need to stop being so defensive. WE are NOT JAMES!!! Take out all this anger on him by walking out. Don't let the doorknob hit you in the a$$ on the way out of that deathpit you call home!

i agree with you, absolutely. however, when someone is going to come at me for giving advice and opinions THEY ASKED FOR i am going to speak my mind.
if she doesn't like the advice i, or anyone else give, she need not ask for it.
i am in no way looking down on her or pointing a finger. she just really needs to take a step back and THINK this through...thoroughly.

i think its safe to assume that "second chance" is jenni. so sad because all along she had nothing to hide. i can hear it in her tone, her word choice, how defensive she is and timing of the posts. i "will eat my hat" if its not her but i didnt just fall of the turnip truck yesterday. is that how that ole saying goes??

the ONLY thing that makes me feel that its not jenni is that she posted and got defensive so quickly. there have been numerous  occasions previously where she could have reacted this way but did not in other posts. why would country mamas post be so upsetting all of a sudden??

jenni, if you want help just post as you have been. if someone offends you just IGNORE!!!

Well, I guess I did just fall off the turnip truck, 'cause I missed that one! I agree that '2nd' quickly got defensive, but jenni has been quick to anger lately, too. I think as everyone elses' levels of frustration rose, so did hers, and we started seeing the real her.

i could be wrong and i sure as h*## have been wrong before and will be wrong again. where did she go all of a sudden? as soon as i said, "or are you her" the post stopped. i dont know, i dont care either. my husband is giving my little girl a bath right now getting her ready for bed. i have my own problems, my own worries and while i LOVE to help people (try anyway) or share my experiences i dont have time for this. i HOPE that "second chance" is not jenni cuz i was starting to think how strong she has become (even in a short time since her first post). if that is her, i am disappointed not to mention the waste of these threads.

I believe she was able to be aggressive because she was hiding behind a mask, so to speak. The, "What if she's a friend of mine?" really gave it away. Plus we all know how often she is on here and she has also gotten in the habit of giving advice to others. Since 2ndChance showed up, Jenni has been conveniently absent. And 2ndChance has taken over Jenni's role of giving advice. I won't be eating my hat or anything else. I am certain they are one in the same.
And kjsk, I know you have invested so much time and energy, not to mention emotion into this girl, but you are doing the right thing to just concentrate on you for a change! Don't let her bring you down.

i have a life too other than being on the computer. i have 3 children that get home from school at 4pm and they are my life. i am NOT jenni, why would you ladies asume i was? because i said that i might be her friend? i am not a real friend i dont know her, everyone needs friends, maybe down the road i could be a friend from afar. country mama im sorry if i snapped, but all of you ladies have snapped at jenni at one point or another.
my name states every one gets a second chance because i believe evryone should get 1. i myself was given a second chance at life and i am living it to the fullest.

thank you. i appreciate what you said.
it's not the jenni situation that got to me, it was SOMEONE else harpin' on me. someone who i DID NOT address, and i don't feel that she had any right to say to me what she did. yes, everyone has their own opinions, but when they are not addressed towards you, i don't think there is any reason to attack that person.
i wish only the best for jenni and i sincerely hope that she figures things out before anything bad can happen to her or her precious baby.

sorry i havent written, i was busy "eating my hat" sorry if i arrived at the wrong conclusion that 2nd chance was jenni. i can admit when im wrong and i am taking a chance by believing you.
it seemed pretty obvious that you were one in the same and it would not be the first time that has happened here on the forum. take care all...
