Hi! Im five months pregnant and in real need of maternity clothes. I have maybe three or four shirts that fit right now, and we’re low on cash. I was wondering if there are any places online or something where I could find cheap or free maternity clothes??
I’m five months and all of my regular clothes fit so tight. Should I start wearing maternity clothes or is it too early?
I am now 13 weeks pregnant with my second baby and I’m about the same size that I was at five months with my first baby! I know that you pop out faster with a second pregnancy, but this fast? I think I have to get my maternity clothes out!
im pregnant. im 18. my ex and me were only together 3 months. hes 20. i broke up with him after i got pregnant because he is lazy, irresponsible, imature and i couldnt stand to be around him anymore. for a week or so after we broke up he acted like he still wanted to be in the babys life. his mom was very rude (shes wayyy overprotective and he lives with her.) a while went by and i didnt hear from him. emailed him to tell him i was going to the doctor he just said okay thanks. a while went by he put on myspace that hes moving out of state in a couple days. i asked him over the phone he said he was moving to get a job and a car. it was obvious he only said that to make me angry or to get my attention bc he also said he wasnt sure about moving he would have to talk to his dad first. he called me selfish and said its none of my business if he moves, he dosent have to tell me things because hes not my "bff", as he said it. he deleted me from myspace dosent call. so its been months and ive gotten used to the idea that he wasnt going to be around. ive bought clothes, gone to doctors, found out babys sex, got furniture all without him. im 18 weeks now. out of nowhere his mom called today and left a message to check up on me and baby. i got used to the idea of doing this myself and now all of a sudden i figure they plan on being around? its been five months. they havent contributed anything! i dont want him in my childs life. hes not father material. he lays on his moms couch and plays video games all day. he lies about serious things for attention and i dont trust him one little bit. his mom talks bad about me. why would i leave them alone with my child? i dont trust him to not take off with the baby. do i have to let him in my childs life legaly? i dont want him or his mom around. like i said we were only togheter 3 months. i can always find someone later in life who will be a way better father than he could ever be! it may sound like im being selfish but i honestly think it would be best for the baby if he werent around. he cant just come and go as he pleases.. what can i do legaly to make sure hes not around?
Did you stop swaddling at a certain age? My daughter is swaddled at night and for most naps. She is almost five months old, developing properly, and I am not planning on stopping soon. Just wanted to hear what other parents had done. I just don’t want her to be 5 and still want to be swaddled!
My son is five months old and I think it is probably time to wean him from the swaddle. He seems to be pretty dependent on it to go to sleep. Any advice?
What was your baby’s heart beat during five to nine weeks of pregnancy? I wanted to know b/c this week I’m going for a ultrasound at seven weeks, and the doctor is going to check the heart beat. I’m just scared, last five months ago, I had a miscarriage due to low heart beat. I measured 6 weeks and five days and the heart beat was 92. I hope this time its much higher than that.
I am five months prego and I haven’t had a baby in 13 years (no baby stuff!). How can I throw myself an inexpensive baby shower? My friends have talked about throwing me one but I don’t want them to spend the money either. We live in a condo (no space) and I am the only one in the family working. How do we do this on a tight budget? Help!
Ok, i am five months pregnant (yay) but i also have four other kids. Kyle is 13 years old and is just killing me. He is always asking me to drive him places and hes always being so mean and teenagerish (LOL)
Blake is 11 years old and always has friends over and keeping me up all night at her sleepovers and always begging me for new clothes and stuff.
Fallon is 9 years old, shes a little sweetie pie. I really cant complain much about her except for the fact that shes attached to my hip.
And lastly, my son Andrew is 6 years old. Hes also a sweetie but when things dont go his way hes a wild kid.
See i love all my kids and i want them to be happy but i need help explaining to them that im a little busy with the new baby on the way and i have to relax, but i dont want to ignore them.
Thanks so much everyone.
LOL believe me, i dont tend to Kyle like hes a king. But if i dont do what he needs he begs and begs and nags until i have to!
Hey just a story I am writing for fun – opinions would be nice, thanks x
If you told me a few months ago that I would be here, fighting for my life, then I would have told you not to be so bloody daft. I was a good girl, as they say. I never went out with friends; I didn’t have any to go out with. However, that all changed the day Josh spoke to me.
Josh Garrison was every girls dream date. His long flowing brown hair always sat in the same position, half tucked behind his left ear and the other half covering his right eye. Such a shame really, his eyes were his strongest point. They were emerald green in colour and the effect they had on people was incredible. I knew firsthand, every time I closed my eyes I could see them. It was as if he was still here.
It was because of Josh I was here now and I wasn’t going to let him down. He had already sacrificed enough for me and to simply lie down and give up would be an insult to his memory. I wondered what he would say to me and quickly shook my head. The answer was simple – he wouldn’t have let it get this far. I closed my eyes, awaiting my fate and thought of him.

Josh wasn’t a stranger to me; he was more of an old friend. I don’t know if I would exactly call him a ‘friend’ but more of someone, I had always known. Sure, we grew up together, we shared play dates when we were younger, but we were never close. In fact, I didn’t even think he noticed me before five months ago. So, it was a surprise when he started talking to me at school that day.
English was the second class of the day and Josh always sat near the window to the far left, with his stunning but bitchy girlfriend, Lydia. I think to be honest it was more to do with her that Josh never spoke to me in school. She always spoke to me as if I was dirt on her shoe. She was perfect there was no denying that, her long straight hair fell to below her waist, her eyes, baby blue in colour, always seemed to have a shine in them or at least to all the boys in our year, they did. Her lips were red as a rose, her clothes always came from the local designer boutique down the road, and compared to me she looked like she belonged on a runway. I, on the other hand looked the opposite, my black hair was always scrapped up in a band, a sign I was always running late and just didn’t have the time to make myself ‘perfect’. It wasn’t my style anyway, having all that hair in front of my face all day was annoying. Makeup didn’t agree with me, if I wore it sure enough the next day, I would wake up with my skin all greasy and shiny. As if, I needed another excuse for people to laugh at me for. No, I was very much your average ‘plain Jane’ and I liked it that way.
I entered the classroom like every other day only stopping dead when I saw Josh seated at my table and Lydia scowling over at him. He waved at me and my head turned towards Lydia who apparently found this little situation hilarious.
“God knows why he wants to sit with her,” she said to her new table partner, loud enough so everyone could hear and turn to look at Josh.
Then, when they were done gawking at him, it was my turn. I walked as quickly as possible up the long narrow isle, the walk felt like it lasted forever and I could feel the reminder of the classroom occupants eyes burn into the back of my head. Why had I picked the end row?
“Hey,” he said, turning to face me. His face rested on his hand and I couldn’t help but notice how good looking he was close up. This had to be a joke. What did he want? Why was he even within a five-mile radius of me?
I slung my bag under the desk and spoke, “Hey, is something up?”
“No, why?” He dragged his chair closer to me and I was sure my face resembled the bright red painted walls of the room.
“Then, why are you sitting here?”
“’Cause I wanted to. Is that a problem for you?” His eyes bore into mine and I turned away hoping that at any moment now the fire bell would suddenly go off and save me from making a complete fool of myself.
“No, it’s just different, that’s all,” I said as I dipped my head into my English grammar book.
“I like different,” he said, smiling and revealing a gleaming white row of teeth. “I’m not sure, Lydia, does though.”
I peeked up through my bangs and looked in the direction of her seat. He was right; she didn’t look amused. Josh waved at her and she flicked her hair before turning around. I had to stifle a laugh.
“You’re laughing.” He raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t think you could laugh.”
“Josh, really I’m a bit freaked out. What do you want?”
“I want to get to know you again, Kara.” He moved his hand over to mine and gently placed it on top. “Wouldn’t you like to get to know me?”
I quickly pulled my hand away, placed it under the table, and clasped into my other one. The teacher, Mrs. Kelly, entered just then and saved me from answering. Josh pulled his chair back to normal distance and I relaxed. I could not help but wonder what his agenda was?
