I just wanted to share

thanks for the well wishes and that is a great idea....something we can do even while we are preparing, I have several doctors to consult with and I have to go off my medications for a period of time before trying anything.....sooooo I guess I need to get my butt over to Kingsport to see my neurologist. I haven't been at my job too long so I need to see what will be needed to accrue some time. Which once I have been her for 6 months I can start pulling call which is extra income, we can put that whole amount on to a card each time I do the call. That is truly a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing that.

No problem at all. It is something I done which has helped, although my daughter came much earlier than expected, and now its about used up! It was nice while it lasted though.

just make sure the card won't expire before you use them is the only thing I would say about that.

I have thought about telling everyone to get me walmart gift card's for Christmas and next birthday and see how close I come to getting a LCD tv.

I checked out the Walmart gift cards. They don't expire, and can hold $10 - $2500.

Sounds like a plan.
We'll probably start this early ourselves - be prepared. We hope that when that day comes we won't have to use formula, but you never know. All kinds of things happen to change the best laid plans.

It's better than a savings account at this point in time (with taxes, sorry interest rates, fees, hassle...).

I think I will start putting some on that now!!! As it stands while we can practice [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I still have some time before we can do much more than plan. I have doctor appointments to attend and what have you some other stuff I need to get in order prior to anything. He threw the big bomb on me last night that he would like to have two kids...I said uhhh let's get done with the first one please (of course twins does run in the family on my side at least)

I am the Father of Twins, boys that is, and it was quite an experience. Very rewarding, I might add. Good luck to ya.

We've got fraternal twins running all over the place on my mom's side of the family. Even Mom's a twin. And the older you get, the greater the odds are of having twins.

You're no spring chicken either Craes...the clock's ticking for you! [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
