Im experienceing preterm labor due to dehydration and stress. I can figure out what to do for the dehydration, but for the stress…Im trying and need suggestions. I have a big family; 4 little children in the home and 6 other step children that visit from time to time. It seems that a few of the step children being young adults love to cause turmoil and drama no matter what I do. Right now it seems that every issue that can come up has. Yet how does one just take it easy and de-stress? Suggestions Please.

WOW! you have a big family! I have 4 of my own also and 3 step-children… Take a long warm bubble bath, turn the lights off, lock the door and light some candles. Then eat a big bowl of your favorite ice cream. Try to ignore the turmoil (I know, easier said than done)and really just try to relax!!!! If there is someone you can talk to, that might help too. (if you want to, contact me if you need to vent,) Good Luck!!

Tell them (the step kids) not to bring their friends over until after you give birth. Doctor’s orders. If they care about you, in the slightest, they will do everything they can to help you. Not to be tacky, but you have enough kids! I can see why you’re stressed. Bless your heart! Good luck with the pregnancy!

have your husband watch the little ones and as far as the older kids the should know better. Go take you a long warm bath with aromatherapy candles and some relaxing music also treat yourself to something like some fruit, or ice cream. and most of all just relax!!!!!!!!

Girlfriend, it sounds like you need to use your pregnancy as an excuse to really go off! After that, delegate, delegate, delegate. Make those brat teens take care of the young’uns! You just lie in bed and eat strawberries and ice cream while watching Oprah and soaps. Really though, get out of the house. Go to a girlfriend’s house and just chill, read a mag, get a pedicure…
