      Do you have anxiety? I get it all the time freaking out that there is something wrong with my kids. Do you take medication? Any Advice? I am in tears most days.

      Yes! I have LOTS of anxiety. I have to take a half a xanax before going out in public. I've passed out multiple times in stores. I suggest really finding a doctor that is supportive in this field and really push for any help. The best quick advice I can give is to take a deep breath and really sort out what is really the root of the issue and find your "triggers" and acknowledge them. Be more aware of your self. :) Hang in there! <3

      saw this article and thought of you http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/12/16/ep.vbac.birth.at.home/

      Thanks! I'm not an anti-doctor kind of person, though. And I've had great OBGYNS, that actually encouraged a Vbac. I'm just not that passionate about doing it at home and giving doctors the middle finger ya know? I don't think they are all evil and I do believe many have your best interests in mind.

      would you ever be okay talking with someone via email about PPD and anxiety?

      Sure. I'm not the best at emailing, (plus my email has been screwed up lately) but yes, feel free. JLYoungsma@gmail.com

      With new years right around the corner and with my butt getting bigger and bigger. I'm ready for a change, did you just to weight watchers or did you pair it with a workout system? Any thoughts? I'm ready to not be the 'big' girl anymore.

      I only do WW, but I really need to find a gym. Breastfeeding def helps with burning calories, though.

      You're awesome! I really love how you're a great, loving mom, but still a totally wicked girl with a REAL personality & sense of humour. I'm trying to lose 20lbs starting Jan 1 & would love if you could share a bit of things you've been eating! xo

      Thank you! I will try to get that set up soon, it's been crazy lately.

      I hope you do a menu plan post soon! One that you typically used for WW :)

      I was going to this week, but my baby ended up in the ER twice this week and everyone in the house is not feeling great. Hopefully next week.

      I always notice that your cute photos on your blog have been edited in some way, like stitched together or corners rounded etc. What program do you use? I'm looking for something like that for my photos to make them better looking. :)

      Oh I just use PIcnik (free) on Flickr and use the different effects they offer. :)

      first off, I think you're a wonderfully awesome lady! I enjoy reading your blog because I can tell how real you are. I was wondering if you're able to still eat yummy food on WW? Are the portions just less?

      Thank you!!! I obviously can't pig out on pizza 24/7, but I don't ever feel deprived. And yes, my portion sizes are much smaller.

      How budget friendly is weight watchers? Do you think the money is worth it? You look so beautiful!! I need to take some action just like you did :)

      I think it is. It was $65 to sign up for 3 months online and then it will be $17 per month. I think its doable, especially if start shopping smarter at the grocery store and fast food. Youlle have the extra cash. I think its worth it just for the tracking and accountability. I wouldn't be able to stick with it if I didn't have it.

      Why do you hate glen beck?

      Really?
      In short:
      He's a hateful, piece of shit liar, that incites violence and takes no responsibility with his words and actions.
      He is a joke and so are his "followers".

      Lots of love and a couple questions :) Are you below your pre-pregnancy weight? How much did you gain with your pregnancies? I gained like 50 with my first and I am now 28 weeks pregnant and 17lbs up. Ugh! Is weightwatchers cool with breastfeeding? Thanks

      My pregnancies are weird. I lose about 10-15 lbs in the first few months and then slowly gain it back plus about 3 -5 lbs... So technically I only gain 3-5 lbs. Weird, right?
      My "pre-prego" weight: 217 (my heaviest)
      My "prego" weight: 228
      Start weight before WW: 210
      Current weight: 186
      Goal: 180

      But I wouldn't mind being 170-175 lbs....
      Oh and if you wanted to know I'm almost 6'2" ;)

      And yes! WW adjusts your points for BFing. YEAH!!!!

      How do you feel about the mormon church?

      I have a TON of Mormon friends and I love them. I think there is good stuff to take in from ALL religions. Mormonism isn't my thing, but I do respect their love and faith.

      Loving the new lippy, Jess! Did you use a lipliner with it (if so which one) and what shade did you have on your cheeks? xoxox

      I always use a lip liner! But just get cheap drugstore kid... No need to spend a ton on that. I used just a cheap red liner, cant remember the name though. :(
