My family is in upheaval!  When DH comes home from work I like to hand
the baby off to him for a while so I can take a shower, relax, wash
bottles, etc.  The only problem is that Quinn cries and screams when
he's with his daddy.  He's tried white noise, stimulus, no stimulus,

I am just curious, has anyone ever had a natural childbirth in a

(it looks unbelievable!), etc.
This has been the longest month of my life.

I've been pumping for 3 mos now.  During that whole time, my left breast
would *always* put out alot more milk than the right.  Recently, it's been
in reverse.  The right puts out more than the left.  Kind of strange.

When we had DD, we had 2 names picked out for a girl, and I got to choose
the final christian name by dint of pain and suffering experienced! The
middle name did get changed at the last minute though.  People keep asking
us about names for this baby, and I say we haven't talked ...
