I guess you guys might have seen her on
oprah a couple of weeks ago. She was on
a tv show here last night and there's 5
cries that all babies do and each
obviously have a different meaning.
lachlan would not settle for like an hour
last night then we heard him doing the eh
one and I kept burping him for 10 minutes
and boy did he burp then he was asleep
straight away!!!!
We are behind on tv shows here so that one
if it waso n a week ago might be on this
week or next here, I cant wait till my
babys born to see if that is true lol

Where's the screaming "waaahhh" cry?
That's what finn does a lot. It means
"i'm tired but won't go to sleep".
It's the pre-cry sounds you are suppose to
listen for. I always watch a baby story
and try to pick out which cry the baby is
making. It was really interesting, i'm
going to try it when my baby gets here.
I'm glad it worked for you, it was cool
how she was in that room with all those
mothers and helped them hear the specific
sounds and in a couple of minutes every
baby in the room was silent and happy.

tanya, I must have missed this. Are you
keeping the baby?
Yes i'm keeping her. Erik wouldn't
respond to any of the phone calls or
e-mails from the lawyer asking him where
he stood on the issue so he got sent some
forms saying that if he didn't respond in
five days it would be assumed he was in
support of the plan and we would go on
with it without any involvement on his
part, which his mother responded to "on
his behalf" saying "they" did not support
it and that they were "seeking legal
representation to obtain parental custody"
blah blah blah
. So the adoption is off, in which case
I planned on keeping her (as I could never
let her go to erik's horrible family), but
now their plan is to take me to court and
take her away from me so that "they" can
have full custody (they use "we" in all
their letters... Which I have no idea why
because it really should have anything to
do with his family, just him and me. But
it's all his mother). Which hopefully is
not going to work.

it doesn't have anything whatsoever to do
with her! She has no rights, the
only people who should be involved in this
situation are you and erik.
Yeah it's too bad because things might
have turned out completely different if
she hadn't involved herself. Erik was
actually telling me to lie about the baby
being his so that his mom would leave me
alone and I could put the baby up for
adoption, so it's not like he even really
cares about the adoption plans, he's just
going along with whatever his mom tells
him to do. She's pretty annoying. I
don't see the point because i'm going to
try my hardest to make sure it doesn't get
her anywhere, and that when erik is
granted visitations that it's only him
allowed to see the baby, and hopefully
only supervised visits. It's not like
the courts will force me to give his mom
visitation rights. It's so annoying to
have another woman tell you what to do
with your own child, and threaten to try
to take it away. It's like... Who the
hell does she think she is, this baby has
been growing in .M.E for nine months, not
her. The thing that makes it even more
annoying is that she said I should get an
abortion when she first found out I was
pregnant. It makes me so sad to have to
bring a baby into all this ugliness. All
I can do right now is pray.

I think she just thnks a little baby is
going to make her happy and she can play
mommy. Even though her boyfriend lives
with her with his four daughters who she
doesn't take care of, swears and yells at.
What I honestly think it is that she
thinks taking this baby and pretending
like it's hers and stuff will make up for
the baby she lost, because her first baby
died when he was like two months old or
something. I just think she's needy and
wants a little baby to love her or some
crap, why else would a woman in her late
40's all of a sudden want to raise someone
else's child when she already has tons of
little brats who she can't control and
doesn't care about running around her
house. She already screwed up on her own
two sons, who both still live in her
basement and never go to school, so I
don't know why the hell she wants to raise
another child. I just want her to screw
off.
Talking about this makes me need cookies.

I am sure that if it actually goes that
far that they will have some one come in
and assess the two homes and they will
make an informed decision.
Are you parents for you keeping the baby
and are they willing to help you with the
child?
Are you planning on going to child support
from the father of the baby? If he
doesn't go to school then he should have
plenty of time to get a job and send you
the money. Maybe that is what she is
worried about, she may be worried about
having to pay for your baby. And I think
that he should. Just to make sure that
the baby is taken care of.
If she was worried about him having to pay
for the baby she wouldn't have made the
adoption impossible. My parents are
crazy supportive. My dad has been
helping me so much I can't even explain,
he won't let anyone screw me over either.
I want to leave erik's name off the birth
certificate and say I don't know he's the
dad, which means he won't have to pay
child support if I say I don't know he's
the dad, but he will also have to go
through the courts to get dna testing and
prove he is the father before he can get
any visits. I'm not as worried about the
money... I'm going to talk to a lady from
children services here and lawyer and see
what they say I should do regarding child
support and stuff. So that I do what
will keep baby safe and with me. I think
if I went for child support he'ld be in a
better position to get more time with her.
