  • Question about what to expect after Chicken Pox vaccine and MMR ...?

    My 1 year old twins just received their 'chicken pox vaccine' and the MMR today. I was told by one of the nurses that the twins shouldn't be around anybody with a weakened immune system over the next 10-14 days.

    My question / concern would be Thanksgiving. We are planning on having family over to our house - I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not now. I have one family member that has been on Dialysis for almost 20 years (doesn't have the best immune system).

    Anybody that has a real clue about this - please help me out.

    Thanks ahead of time !!

It is most girls dream to have a "dream wedding" and we want to do something for our 10 year anniversary that includes all of our kids. We want to also do a spectacular ceremony that includes all of our close friends and family (maybe a big ceremony at an all-inclusive resort in the Caribbean.

  • Need baby names starting with "D"?

    I need baby names that start with the letter "D". I am early in the pregnancy, but I am wanting to go ahead and get a list of names started. We do not know the sex of the baby (too early), but know that we want a name that starts with the letter "D".

  • A different way to announce a "surprise pregnancy"

    First, I do not want any negative comments, we are happy about this. I have a 6 1/2 year old, 4 year old and 9 month old twins and I just took a home pregnancy test - another on the way. . .

    I am guessing that we are only like 4-5 weeks pregnant. I am wanting different / unique ideas of how to tell the grandparents, the rest of the family and our friends know.

    *Due to miscarrying in the past - we are not planning on telling them for a few months to make sure that everything is ok.

    Thanks ahead of time for any help and suggestions that you give.

  • Parents of multiples . . .?

    Hi. . . I have 4 kids - a 6 yo, 3.5 yo and 5 month old twins.

    Why are people so stupid when it comes to the questions that they ask when you have twins (or for some of you that have higher order multiples).

    ~ Are they twins ? ~~We bought bibs that say "Buy one" and "get one free"

    ~ Are they identical (I have a boy and girl - they CAN'T BE INDENTICAL)

    ~ What are you going to do with all of them kids ?

    ~ I'm glad they're not mine

    So, the question is :

    What are some of the dumbest / most unusual / most uncaring thing that people have said to you or asked you ?

    Thanks for your stories ahead or time

  • An account for kids?

    I have asked questions about trust funds for kids, but don't think that's exactly what I need. I have a 6 yo, 3.5 yo and 5 month old twins. Every Christmas and birthday, one of the sets of Grandparents buys each kid a savings bond. To me, they are a waste, you have to keep them up and can't do anything with them for years. Each of the kids also gets plenty of cash and stuff thru the year (and of course, especially at Christmas and birthdays.

    My question is : what type of account do I need to open up that grandparents or whoever could put money in it (instead of getting the savings bonds), that would make money and that the kids couldn't touch until 18 or 21.

    **added note: I don't want to open something "just for college" because as much as I want my kids to go to college, if they don't, I still want them to be able to get the money that they have saved.

    Thanks to everybody for any help!!
