Double Stroller vs Snugli Type Carrier

I am due to have my 4th child on July 3rd and am trying to figure out what form of "transportation" I want to use for the mall or park or walks etc. My youngest is going to be 22 months when this baby is born. I would like to know everyones opinions on which is better - using a Graco front to back double stroller (it would need to accomodate my Graco Snug Ride car seat) or putting the baby in a front style carrier and putting "big" sister in the stroller. My concern with having my 22 mo old walk is that she has hit this phase of wanting...

Giving Birth for the First Time

I have a neice that lives in N.Y. She is due any day now with her first baby. Sadly, I can not be there and her mother passed away a year ago. I know she can give birth on her own and I have already told her, her mother is there in spirit. But, I was thinking what would we tell her? I mean what would you wish you had known the first time you gave birth? I would have liked to know, labor would not last for weeks. And that it was normal for my thighs to shake uncontrollably. What things would you share with your daughter if she were...

To Have That Third Baby or Not?

My husband and I have gone back and forth about a third baby for a long time, usually with me wanting one and him not. I finally gave up on the idea a few months ago and don't ya know, right about that time he decided he wanted another one?? Now I'm not so sure. Here are our concerns: finances- we would need to pay for 3 days a week daycare, and down the road would send to Catholic school. Just starting to feel comfortable in our finances and feeling like paying for high school/college and actually retiring one day might be possible!...

Do You Believe In...

Do you believe in 'God will never give you more than you can handle"? I just wonder how others cope or how they handle their outlook on life. I know myself that I've come to terms with that belief. Giving the fact that i feel I'm a strong woman and have the capablility to deal with a situations and try to look at it as thought it was 'meant to be' or if it 'wasn't meant to be'.. I'm going to be 30 yrs old in May. I have 3 beautiful healthy children, but I also had a miscarriage and 2 stillbirths at 25 weeks that my husband and I went thru...
