2 AnswersSmall Business1 decade agoAdvice from a mom of 4 or more kids!?
Hi, I'm a mom of 4 kids. Ages 7 (almost 8), 3 1/2, 2 1/2, & 9 1/2 mo. I've always wanted a big family. And I want another child lol...Last one though...But I was just wondering from moms that have a lot of kids did you find the age difference better being close together or far apart with your last baby? I don't want any "advice" telling me not to have another child. I can afford it and I have the room. Thanks!
9 AnswersParenting1 decade agostolen money as a independent contractor...HELP! ?
My boyfriend DID work for Direct TV. But he was working as an independent contractor. And his boss is young around 27 or so. When he got his first check we had to wait 6 wks. And then when we got the check they took out $100. Which was ok because he had to buy a start up kit ($500). Well the second check came and they took out $500. Then the third check they took out $600! Ok at that point we knew something fishy was going on and my bf started to look for another job. And when he told them that he quits the next check they said that he owed them all that money for parts! And they check was for $2,700! And we know that because we called Direct TV. Ok so he was to get a check this last Friday and it was to be $2,000. And they mailed us a check for .02! Ha!
So I didn't know if this has happened to anyone else and is there anything we can do to get my boyfriends money back. We have already contacted Direct TV and they are getting us copy's of all the work orders that he has done. But the problem with that is the place my boyfriend did work at they got all there jobs through Direct TV. So we thought that if we complained to them then they wouldn't give them any jobs. As I understand it Direct TV pays the company that my boyfriend works for. Then they distrubite they money to the contractors that they hired.
Oh and his old boss is saying that he "owes" him all that money in parts! There is no way! So if anyone knows anything I can do please leave a message.
1 AnswerSmall Business1 decade agoQuestion on a bank taking you to court..?
Hi everyone! I just have a question to ask. I divorced my ex-husband back in July 2007. And in my divorce papers I put all our bills that we had together ( we didn't have anything else together ) Well he never showed up to court so I got all the bill put so he was responsible for them.
Ok So I was just served court papers for a bank account that we had together. But in my divorce papers it says that I'm NOT responsible for them that he is.
But I have talked to to some people and since I was the primary account holder on our joint account that I'm still responsible and it doesn't matter. That I will still owe the money no matter what.
Does anyone know what happens or know anyone who has been through this. I thought that I would not owe anything since I have filed divorced papers stating that he is responsible for all bills before Jan 07. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

6 AnswersSmall Business1 decade agostimulous checks ?
My boyfriend claimed my kids for taxes this year. But he owed money in back childsupport so all the tax return went for back childsupport. But he is still behind.
My question is do you still get the stimulous checks when you owe back childsupport? I have heard from two ppl that the stimulous check should have nothing to do with that. But someone else told me that they will take the check cuz he owes back childsupport. Which I dont care if it does go for back childsupport cuz it needs to be paid. We are just struggling and it would be nice to get caught up on bills lol. Ok well if you know or have heard anything relating to this please leave a comment! thanks!
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoGetting your "period" after having a baby?
Before you read this I'm just warning you that it might be to much information for some of you...So if you get "grossed" out easy then dont read any further.
I just had a baby about 5 1/2 wks ago. I had my postpartem bleeding for about 2 1/2 - 3 wks. And I had sex when my daughter was 2 wks 5 days. And at that time I was just spotting some. So afew days after that I completly stopped bleeding. Which I know that you arent supposed to have sex for six weeks but I got caught up in the heat of things. I have a doctors appt on April first to put some birth control in my cervix but know I'm worried because I still have not had my "period". With my other kids I always had my period by my 4th week. My question is if I take a pregnancy test or blood test will it show up that I'm pregnant either way because I just had a baby and I still have the hormones in my system? Because if I was pregnant I would be alittle over 3wks along...would that show up on a test that early?
7 AnswersNewborn & Baby1 decade agojust had a baby and could be pregnant!?
I just had my baby 5wks ago and I'm really worried that I might be pregnant. I had unprotected sex when she was almost 3 wks old. And yes I know that your not to have sex for six weeks. About two days after I had sex I stopped bleeding and I still havent had my period. I have a doctors appt on april 1st. So yes I know that I could be pregnant but I was just wondering if I took a pregnancy test or blood test would it come up that I was pregnant if I really was. I just dont know if I would still have the hormones in my body from just having a baby so it would say that I'm pregnant either way. Anyways I'm just wanting to find out soon as possible and didnt know if anyone went through the same thing.
5 AnswersNewborn & Baby1 decade ago? about having your period after giving birth.?
My daughter will be 5wks old tomorrow. And I stopped my postpartem bleeding almost 2wks ago. For the past week I have been moody and I feel like I could start my period anytime. But I'm also nervous because I had sex one time with my husband when my daughter was 2wks 5 days. This is not my first baby and with all my other kids I bleed for about 2 - 3wks and always had my period at the start of my 4th week. I know that pregnancys and postpartems are different. And I'm not breastfeeding. So I know I can start my period anytime. But I'm just really nervous! I was wondering if anyone went through the samething and how did it end up for you......
4 AnswersNewborn & Baby1 decade agoIdeas to induce labor....?
I'm 37 weeks pregnat with my fourth child. I've had all my children at 37/38wks. I went to the doctors on last thursday and he said that I was 3cm 80% effaced and the baby was at a -1 station. So he told me that he could srip my membranes to try and help things along. So I had that done while I was there which gave me some cramps but no contractions. Last night I went walking on my treadmill for about 40 min and I lost my mucus plug about 30 min into the walk.
I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas that actually worked for them. I know I cant force her out and she will come when she is ready.

4 AnswersPregnancy1 decade ago35 weeks and cramping...?
I'm 35 wks 3days...I've been having bad period like cramps for the past 2 or 3 days...but instead of comming and going they are just staying...And when I get up I get really sharp pains in my pelvic area. I have a doctors appt. tomorrow morning so I'm going to mention all of this....
This is my fourth pregnancy and I had my first two kids at 38 wks and my last one at 37wks. So I'm sure my body is just getting ready...I was just wondering if anyone else had this and what week were you when you finally had your baby?
3 AnswersPregnancy1 decade ago35 weeks and cramping......?
I'm 35wks and 3 days...and yesterday I had a period type cramp all day...it never let up. Then later on that night the cramping went into my bottom! But I decided to try to go to sleep but this morning I woke up having the same cramping.
Aweek ago I went into the hospital to make sure everything was ok because of the amount of pressure I was feeling. But he did a swab in my vaginal area to make sure my body wasnt making any "real" contractions and he said that the test came back negitive. And that I should be good for about 2wks. He also sent me down for an ultrasound to check my cervix area to see if I had dialated...Which I hadnt but my cervix length was 3cm...I guess you start off at 5cm...so my body was starting to do something.
This isnt my first pregnancy...this is my fourth. I had my first two at 38wks and my last one at 37wks. But have not experienced this cramping. I was just wondering if anyone else had this and how long until you had your baby?
3 AnswersPregnancy1 decade ago35wks and alot of cramping....?
I'm 35 weeks pregnant and I think that my baby dropped yesterday. I can finally breathe but I have to pee about every hour! Well last night I've been having tons of cramping in my lower stomach and my back hurts really bad! But this has been going on for about a month off and on but last night It was worse. I have my next doctors appointment on monday and I'm hoping that he will do an exam.
This is my fourthpregnancy but with my others I have never experienced any of this and I do have my kids early. I had my last one the day I turned 37wks. But at 36 weeks I was dialated to 5cm.
I was just wondering if anyone else has gone through this and how many weeks were you when you had your baby. Thanks!
7 AnswersPregnancy1 decade ago20 week ultrasound question?
I had my 20 week ultrasound question on monday and I received a letter in the mail today saying my doctor made me another ultrasound appt for the 29th. He said that the baby wasnt laying in a good position for measurements and want to redue. I'm worried something is wrong and they are just not saying. But maybe I'm just over looking. Did anyone else have this and how did it turn out?
7 AnswersPregnancy1 decade agoto mommys of four or more?
I just found out that I'm pregnant with my fourth (and last) child. My kids are currently 6,2,& 1. I'll be six weeks on tuesday. My question is how did you addjust to your baby and other kids when you came home. For me going from two to three I thought it would be really hard but acturally it was really easy. He just fit into place. But maybe its because my last two are 13 months apart so it was alot like twins. I think that my girls will be excited (there the oldest two) I'm just worred about my youngest. And how hes going to react. I know that everything will fall into place with time. I'm just courious about everyone elses experience. I dont kneed any rude comments! Thanks for your time!
