One thing to keep in mind OP is that the first month they start with holding from you dh paycheck for child support for your LO you won't likely get the money right away. Example, the money they garnish in May is distributed to you sometime in June. Processing time for child support payments can be slow, especially when it's a new case.

Dh child support was lowered after we had ds. We had to hire a lawyer and appeal as the modification he filed actually increased child support after ds was born. It was due to hex lying on her income and expenses though, which the judge called her out on. Next month he will file to modify support again as they said end of this school year hex could no longer make dh pay for childcare for SS since he's above the legal age to be alone. It should go down at least $150-200 a month.

Pampers! <br />Both my boys got rashes with any other brand of disposables. <br />They are pricey but I stock up when they're on sale and stack coupons.

Sounds like without him paying half of daycare costs it should be about $400 a month. <br />Can't you file for a modification through the child support agency? It's free.

My two are 11 years apart in age. My ds2 was very planned. Yes it was starting over but we chose it.

You may not be able to find a doctor if you move to a different state. Most OBs won't take patients as far along as you are!! So be prepared to essentially go it alone the last few weeks of your pregnancy and be delivered by a strange doctor (whoever is on call at the hospital you go to).<br />This happened to my cousins wife. She had military insurance, tricare, and no doctor would take her on as a patient because she was already 37 weeks.

Take 3 different pictures of your kids holding up wooden letters to spell out DAD and put it in one of those frames with three picture openings. A bunch of ladies in my birth month did that last year and it was super cute.

As crazy as it sounds I felt better the day after mine when they had me up walking around. <br />Make sure when you go home to take the Percocet every 4 hours even if you're not feeling much pain yet. Do that the first 36-48 hours at home. Don't wait to feel the pain or it will be too much and the pain meds won't help enough.

Get your thyroid checked. It is really common to be hypothyroid after pregnancy.

Track everything you eat for a few days minimum before making changes to see where you need to tweak things. I use MyFitnessPal app. Easy to use. <br />You may be eating too many or too few calories. <br />Track your exercise also.
