Absolutely! There's no reason to not continue breastfeeding while you're pregnant if you want to do so. Many mothers not only continue nursing during pregnancy but also "tandem nurse" – that is, breastfeed both their newborn and their older child.
You may worry that you won't be able to eat enough to both nourish the baby growing inside and produce enough breast milk for the nursling, but our bodies are amazing and know exactly what to do. Eating a healthy, well-balanced diet – eating when you're hungry and drinking when you're thirsty – is all that's needed.
Here are some other things to be aware of as you nurse during pregnancy. All of these are perfectly normal:
Your nipples and breasts may be more tender during pregnancy.
Your milk supply may diminish a bit.
Verbal toddlers may announce that your breast milk tastes different. Why? Because toward the end of pregnancy, breast milk changes to a colostral type of milk. (Colostrum is the thick, yellowish milk your body produces while you're pregnant and for the first few days after your baby is born.)
Some moms are concerned that nipple stimulation during breastfeeding will lead to premature labor. Nipple stimulation does trigger your body's production of the hormone oxytocin, which helps with milk letdown and also plays a role in the contractions you have during labor. Fortunately, the amount of oxytocin released isn't enough to stimulate labor under normal circumstances.
The relase of oxytocin is only a concern if you're at risk for early labor and your doctor or midwife has put you on strict bedrest, with no lovemaking or breast play allowed.

Garides Tourkolimano (Greek Shrimp)
Last week I had the opportunity to attend the Wines from Greece seminar and wine tasting event. I learned a lot about Greek wines and I got to try some really nice ones. Of course the wine tasting only wet my appetite and I had to head out to find some of the wines that I had just sampled. Unfortunately the lcbo did not have any of my favorite wines from the tasting event but I was assured that they would be getting them in. I did find some Greek wines but I am definitely looking forward to the increased selection of Greek wines coming to the lcbo.
I had the perfect recipe in mind for enjoying with some Greek wine. A while ago I came across this recipe for garides tourkolimano or Greek shrimp on Kalofagas and I just knew that I would have to try it. Garides tourkolimano are prawns cooked in a tomato, garlic, herb and wine sauce that is finished off with feta cheese. I had recently made and really enjoyed shrimp saganaki which is very similar dish but it is baked. This dish really reminds me of one of the reasons why I like Greek cuisine so much and that is because of the use of so many fresh herbs.
The garides tourkolimano were really quick and easy to make and they turned out great! The shrimp were amazing and the sauce was really tasty! I took the opportunity to head down to Greek town to pick up some good imported Greek sheeps milk feta and it was well worth the trip. I really liked that way that the feta was just starting to melt into the sauce. I could not let any of that sauce go to waste so I served the garides tourkolimano with some crusty bread to soak up all of the extra. Of course, I enjoyed the garides tourkolimano with a glass of the Greek white wine that I used in the sauce.
Garides Tourkolimano (Greek Shrimp)(makes 4 appetizer sized servings)
Printable Recipe
1 tablespoon oil
1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined)
4 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1 large tomato (diced)
4 green onions (sliced)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 splash hot sauce
1 teaspoon oregano
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup feta (coarsely crumbled)
1 handful parsley (chopped)
1. Heat the oil in a pan.
2. Add the shrimp and saute them for a minute on each side and set aside.
3. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4. Add the tomato and green onion and saute until the tomato starts to break down, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Add the shrimp, wine, herbs and season with salt and pepper and simmer for 2 minutes.
6. Remove from heat and gently mix in the feta.
7. Cover and allow to rest for 3 minutes.
8. Garnish with parsley and serve with crusty bread.

If an admin here could edit my first post, replacing the old image code, it would be appreciated. Sorry about that! I tried to fix it...
Is it requiring a specific video driver? I'm on the open source intel driver right now and it still shuts down, granted much later on in the process... any more troubleshooting i can do?
Still, it shuts down after it tries to connect to some servers instead of before, which is further than it was getting. Is there something better than strace to figure out what is going on?
It currently only shows the splash when you use nvidia or ati binary drivers - be sure that 32 bit libs are installed for those.
So when can we get Valve to officially announce this? I'm just as excited as everyone else but theres really no good in just getting the splash screen. I'm hoping phoronix is probing people at valve for an official answer.
I'm also hoping this is out before HL2E3 and Portal 2 are out, I don't want to play it in wine.

Great product, superior service!
Carved in Love - Autumn Wedding Program Fans These are quality card-stock fans with sturdy handles that are more than just pretty accessories. We used these at an outdoor wedding, 1:00 pm, and the temperature was 81 degrees! Not a single complaint about flimsy paper or broken handles. The editors were wonderful to work with as well. There were about four changes that were made to the original submittal, and each was made promptly and correctly. There was never any "eye-rolling" or "sighing" about the smallest detail that I changed. Shipping was fast and everything was received in good shape. Thanks for making a wonderful wedding day even better!
Absolute fabulous program! We bought the one to use as a fan!
Carved in Love Wedding Program Fans This program is beautiful. It can be used as a fan. So clever. The names carved in the wood look so real. The fan can be used as it is sturdy but elegant. The paper quality fabulous. The help I received from the people at this business was unbelievable. The programs arrived on time and we are completely thrilled. Yes, use this company. I can't talk highly enough about this business!!!

Eastwood inks support for same-sex marriage
POSTED: Friday, March 1, 2013 - 2:00am
UPDATED: Friday, March 1, 2013 - 2:04am
CNN — Actor Clint Eastwood joined the list of Republicans signing a legal brief in support of same-sex marriage, a person familiar with the document confirmed Thursday.
Eastwood has previously lamented the idea of "making a big deal out of gay marriage," but he's now joining a chorus of high-profile Republicans that want the Supreme Court to rule in favor of same-sex couples who want to legally wed.
Next month, the high court will hear two separate oral arguments on challenges to Proposition 8, the voter-approved same-sex marriage ban in California, as well as the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a 1996 congressional law that says for federal purposes, marriage is defined as only between one man and one woman.
At least 100 Republicans have signed onto the amicus brief, including a number of top officials from the George W. Bush administration, Mitt Romney's former campaign manager, and former GOP presidential candidate Jon Huntsman.
While Eastwood has stated support for same-sex marriage in the past, the actor has also publicly chastised efforts to make hay out of the debate, saying there are more important issues to tackle.
In a 2011 interview with GQ magazine, Eastwood said he personally doesn't "give a ***** about who wants to get married to anybody else" and added that the country is wasting time on the debate.
"We're making a big deal out of things we shouldn't be making a deal out of," he said. "They go on and on with all this b****** about 'sanctity' - don't give me that sanctity crap. Just give everybody the chance to have the life they want."
Eastwood, who served as a high-profile surrogate for Romney last year, re-emphasized his stance on same-sex marriage during an interview on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show in 2012
"(It's) part of the libertarian idea: Leave everybody alone," he said.
He continued: "The condition of society right now, with the high unemployment rates and the tremendous debt we're increasing and the government spending, we'd think there'd be a lot to think about (rather) that worrying about gay marriage," he said on the show.
While it's unclear how much sway the legal brief will have with the Supreme Court justices, Eastwood's signature on the document could be his latest step in saying it's time to close this chapter and move on.

Questions + Comments, Part 2
Pregnancy gets better. It does.
Thank you for this. I hope you're right.
This is nothing compared to after you give birth. You'll completely lose your privacy and you'll never sleep again. Also, you'll get stretch marks and you will probably die.
Save the stretch marks, you just described architecture school.
What are you doing with The Historical House By The Water?
We rented it out to a couple from Texas. We were a little concerned about finding tenants this close to the holidays, but we threw an ad on the internet and a sign in the ground and were pleasantly shocked at the response. Luckily, after turning down two other applications, we found the right fit after only eight days.
Is there a waiting list I can be put on for when it becomes available next?
Did you try ginger for the nausea?
The nausea comes and goes, but it doesn't seem to correlate with any foods or smells EXCEPT for ginger. Because I'm lucky like that.
What kind of workouts have you been doing since you got pregnant?
I do most of the same things I did before, just a bit slower. Running, walking, kicking around the soccer ball, P90x, lifting, yada yada yada. They seem to help. The only things I cut out completely after the first couple of months were jump rope and traditional sit ups.
I love reading about your pregnancy. Will you write about it more?
I feel like I'm boring you when I do. I also feel like I'm somehow being inconsiderate or disrespectful to those who are having difficulties conceiving or creating a larger family.
Please stop writing so much about your pregnancy. Don't turn this into a mommy blog.
That would be on par with the European financial crisis and global warming, wouldn't it?
Thank you for being so honest about your pregnancy.
Carrying this beast has been such a strange experience for me. There are so many little moments, precious ones, but they get squelched between bouts of feeling like my stomach is under a three thousand pound rolling pin.
If I add regular sugar in lieu of the Splenda mix, will your recipes turn out the same?
I'm actually not a fan of Splenda (or sucralose, in general) in any form, but because I usually cut the sugar way down in most of what I make, I add a bit of the Splenda mix to keep the texture right. My body doesn't seem to do well with sugar for whatever reason. Anyway, yes, any of my recipes will work with all regular sugar (even a lot more regular sugar).
Are you doing cloth or disposables?
Cloth. I'm thinking Bum Genius Adjustables. I'm very open to any tips or suggestions.
Is the first project in the new house going to be the nursery?
There will be a lot of smaller projects and planning for the first year. The first large project will most likely be the Master Bathroom.
You look huge.
I am huge.
I thought you weren't ready to have children?
Even though we conceived around three and a half seconds after we started trying, do not mistake this pregnancy as anything other than one of the most well considered decisions of my life. Still, I'm under no illusions that I'm prepared.
One of the reasons I've always been so hesitant about parenting is because I think that, on some level, conscious reproducing takes a certain amount of arrogance, at least a teensy bit of believing that you are brilliant enough to form an entirely capable member of the next generation.
And I lose my car keys at least six times a week.

Aw, you are plenty prepared! I was 19 with my first - talk about unprepared. But she turned out great and so did the other 2 kids I accidentally had while young and stupid. No worries, you guys will be great parents.

I'm sorry I said don't let your blog turn into a Mommy Blog. As always I am enjoying reading about your life. Love the new house..can't wait to see what you do with it. You are so lucky to have a child coming and that great Andrew.

- Katy said...
I'm surprised that people write you to tell you what to write about on your blog. Interesting.
I think having a baby on purpose is more about hope than arrogance..
arrogance is when you write long posts about how your method of birthing/co-sleeping/butt wiping clearly means that you will have better children then others.
That's when you know you're ready to join the PTA and get in some real dog fights.

I lack first-hand experience, but I've heard glowing, glowing raves from my friends about gdiapers. One of my friends also rigged up a sink-type sprayer hose to her toilet, which, apparently, made cloth 10x easier.
I don't mind the Mommy Blog. I think it's your life, and you're sharing it. I don't think it's insensitive; you're not purposely rubbing anything in anyone's faces. I say go for whatever you feel like!

- Deb said...
You're never prepared to have children. That's an illusion ;) But you figure it out as you go and everything works out fine.
- November 14, 2011 at 4:44 AM
- Lynett said...
There's only one thing I keeping thinking when I read all the nasty questions and comments people post...F#@K everyone! You look amazing and everything is going to work out great!!!
- November 14, 2011 at 8:38 PM
- Linda said...
I'm holding out hope that "pregnancy gets better" too. However, I'm pregnant with our third child, and pregnancy has never once gotten better for me, and this time is the worst, so I'm not hoping too hard. Haha. It must say something that I'm willing to do this again and again, though, that it's totally worth it in the end. As soon as the baby comes out you forget how awful pregnancy is :)
- November 15, 2011 at 12:00 AM
- NotesFromAbroad said...
I had 2 children before I was 25 ... I don't lose my car keys but have been known to misplace a child now and then.
I agree with Deb .. you are never prepared and that is part of what makes it so damned fun ..
I agree with Lynett, regarding the people who post anything insulting or rude .. WTF ? '
I am past Mommy Blogs doing anything but entertain me, my kids are on their own now ... I enjoy a good Mommy Blog .. I can sit back and be smug cuz we all lived through it ... you will too.
and F the rude person who asked that question.
Love you, love your blog.. and the dogs .. :)

- Lisa @ Trapped In North Jersey said...
I can't imagine that anyone was actually rude enough to tell you that you are huge, but you aren't--you are a petitely adorable pregnant woman. Further, this blog is about your life, not just your houses, and having a baby is pretty big part of that. I'm enjoying reading about your journey, so keep writing whatever you please.
- November 15, 2011 at 11:14 AM
- Melissa at HOUSEography said...
You crack me up! Sorry your pregnancy was sucky. I hated being pregnant and I wasn't even that sick, an that's why we only have 2 kids! I was willing to give it two tries and if I liked it the second time, we would go for #3 but alas, no #3. Still, I love my kids, yucky pregnancies and all.
- November 15, 2011 at 11:15 AM
- NotesFromAbroad said...
Regarding huge .... I gained over 40 lbs with both babies and I always started out tiny.
My arms were as big as someones leg .. I was all soft, warm, ( over-warm) milky mamahood and I cherished every minute and would do it again in a flash. Well, maybe I would control my urges for M&Ms in the middle of the night .. but still .. no one has the right to judge the way another woman is pregnant .. only arseholes think they do.

WOW.... last time I looked it's "YOUR" blog....and if you want to turn it into a mommy blog...you go girl. I'll still read ya.

The current Elites do not have the pronounced halo effect &/or blooming due to the mentioned larger dimming areas. The Elites have had an issue with Pulsing in certain backgrounds , while sorta fixed by a firmware upgrade, the problem still exists to a lessor degree & until that issue is resolved to Sharps satisfaction we are not going to see a new L/D model ..
The current 80" back lit full array Sharp's have a impressive black level now without local dimming & there is no reason that the 90" will not have the same level of black as the 80"er's do.

Blueberry and Maple Pecan Granola Parfait
I had been wanting to try making my own granola for a while but I purposefully held off until the summer. I had seen granola being served with yogurt and fresh berries as a parfait and I wanted to try it like that. Now that the fresh local blueberries were out was the perfect time. I used the maple pecan granola that had survived my snacking for breakfasts last week in the form of parfaits with vanilla yogurt, fresh blueberries and topped it off with some maple syrup. It was amazing! The crunchy granola went really well in the cool and creamy vanilla yogurt with the juicy blueberries were just bursting with flavour. Towards the end of the week I had run out of vanilla yogurt and I decided to try some left over cottages cheese that needed to be used. I was pleasantly surprised that the slightly tangy cottage cheese worked really in this otherwise sweet dish. I would also imagine that vanilla frozen yogurt would also work well.
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 handful maple pecan granola
1 handful blueberries
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1. Assemble parfait.

Dear Listener: Lindsay Foxe is a successful model in New York - a woman who hides behind a new name to protect herself from a past of betrayal and treachery and a present that becomes fraught with danger. The product of old San Francisco wealth, the daughter of a man who despises her, her life is forever changed when she is brutally assaulted by her sister's husband, and then rejected by her family. Lindsay is finally forced to face up to her past when she meets S. C. Taylor, a tough ex-cop turned private investigator and computer troubleshooter. He is hired to protect her; but can he both win her trust and discover who is trying to kill her and why? Is it her family? A supposed friend or colleague? A faceless sicko, or perhaps a mad psychiatrist? Ah, it's a mystery to savor.
©1992 Catherine Coulter (P)2012 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
"A Romantic Mystery!!"
Coulter does a great job of weaving mystery and romance into a story with a great plot and interesting characters that you love and detest.
I really enjoyed this story that begins with a terrible betrayal of trust and leads to violence, intrigue, romance, and vindication. Teenager Lindsay Foxe has every reason to give up after horrific treatment by her brother-in-law and receiving no support from her society family. Yet, she finds the will to become a successful young lady. The story leaves the reader wondering who continues to attack Lindsay as an adult and why they will not leave her alone. Detective Taylor provides Lindsay with the support and love that she never received from her family. Renee Raudman and Paul Costanzo provide excellent performances for each of the characters.
57 Yrs Young, have been reading since age 5. Avg 3-5 books per week. Avid reader/listener, enjoy ALL genres & many writing styles.
"Amusing Story"
The story itself was pretty good, the writing was a bit crappy -- she needed to hang around with REAL cops or do more research to learn how to talk tough. Most of the police interaction wasn't even close to realistic but the story was amusing. Her leaping back & forward was ackwardly put, it wasn't clear exactly where you went for a paragraph or two. Expecially on the Taylor parts.
The narrators needed to be more balanced. Renee delivered her usual great performance - Paul was too lackluster and tended to make his portion drag.
"Interminably Tedious....."
I am only half way through and don't know if I can - or even want - to finish this book. The only character in this book I can stomach is Taylor - he seems to be the only normal one in the bunch. Eden/Lindsey is a completely spineless wuss! While I could feel real sympathy for her at 16....by the time she hits her 20's, I am like, really?? Find your spine and tell that crazy moranic family to go jump off the Golden Gate bridge. Yikes, she is annoying....
The narrators were ok - I just don't usually care for 2 narrators doing a book, it seems disjointed and often pulls you out of the story when the voices change back and forth.
Anger at the sheer stupidity of the main character and lack of spine. Her family is supposed to be evil - but really came across as cartoon villains. And have mercy - way too long to get the story told. Just scene after scene of this spineless woman trying to grow a set and stand up for herself. Really tedious.
So - maybe I'll finish it - but probably not.
"Cruel and brutal in the beginning"
After four hours of this depressing tale I couldn't imagine a reason to go on. Cruelty, brutality and abuse fill the first four hours. If you are tender-hearted, I can not recommend it.
"AWESOME! Of Course Its Catherine Cojlter"
This book is SO GOOD that I was pissed off that it ended! The characters are so delicious and intersting! I loved this book! The narrators are spectacular! Catherine Coulter is again ALWAYS a good read and I just hate when the books end! Ms. Coulter's books are wonderfully engaging and just a joy to read/listen to.
"Excellent story"
Very emotional - family dynamics and growth of the main character. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
"Excellent book"
It's so sad that this book is really close to the truth, men shouldn't be able to get away with raping a woman, and the rape victim should never be blamed. It's a frustrating world we live in when you see the guilty get away with a crime and someone innocent will go to jail because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I like their voices but Paul is very hard to hear at times, its very difficult to listen to this book because I have to turn the volume down a little for Renee's parts and then turn the volume all the way up for Paul and he's still hard to hear.
"Really Bad Performance"
The Male narrator was unimaginative. He very clearly read every word and was definitely not believable. The female was better, changing her voice appropriately for the different characters. There was an actual difference in the volume between the male and female narrator. It was very noticeable from the very beginning of the book.
I've been a Catherine Coulter Fan for years, and if I had read the book I would have enjoyed it. The story was good, and during those times that I could overlook the bad performance, I loved it.
"More Turns than a Country Road"
Absolutely wonderfully written and the two narrators entwine the listener within the mystery of Eden and the AWESOME conclusion which made me vocalize my "aahhhaaa"! I love the emulsion of romance with mystery. I highly recommend this novel!
"Really bummed out"
If you like Catherine Coulter you can do what I did and make yourself listen to it. I am a big fan of hers and I am pushing myself to get through it. Its very predictable and I feel that the story needed more behind it.
Not sure yet
Of course
Her father, her sister, stupid professor. After what happened to her in the beginning that could have led to a good romance with her adorable body guard, then onto a good suspense thriller. Instead it is dragging

A typical group sales arrangement requires a non-refundable deposit
to hold the tickets, with the balance due approximately 45 days
prior to the show.
When you think about it, a group of 20 is easy to put together.
It's ten couples, a birthday party, perhaps a church outing.
All it takes to make it happen is a little advance planning and
a phone call to our group sales manager.

Downloaded the demo last night and tried it out. Never played it before, but I like it. It may be a little older, but it was nice to play. Reminded me of a game I used to play called MegaRace.
I would love to see NWN2 on Linux, but I think Linux Game Publishing is doing a good thing with these titles, and I hope they keep up the good work. Plus with a teaser of "newer" who can argue with that!
I agree that it would be cool to have something similar to NWN2 run native on Linux, and I'm sure their are other games that are just as new and with just as many people (or more) playing them that would benefit from a Linux port -- for instance Jade Empire, Galactic Civilizations 2, or a native version of WoW. But that is a large step that obviously can't happen overnight. Companies like Linux Game Publishing can't just announce their intention to port a specific game to Linux... porting a game to Linux would have to be worked out with the company who released the game on Windows in the first place. I don't know the details of this process, but I'm sure that it could get complicated very easily and change with every company or game.
The best solution would be for companies like Blizzard, Bioware, Atari, NCSoft, etc. to see that there are many Linux gamers who will buy games for their chosen OS, and then these companies would factor a Linux version into the cost upfront (and possibly limit the total cost of development). While we wait for that to happen for all major developers (not just iD, Epic, etc.), Linux Game Publishing and other similar developers help to increase the size of the Linux gaming population with ports of the best games they can find at this time. This makes it more likely that your next must-buy title will have a Linux port.
If you are even remotely interested in Linux gaming then there is no way this could be seen as anything but positive. If you are frustrated at the slow pace at which the newest and most advanced games are making it to Linux, then direct your griping to the companies who are releasing those Windows-only games... not towards one of the few companies that are trying to do something about it.
Keep the great stuff coming in! Linux needs something.
While I understand the thought process of this, whining about it now, or in the future isn't going to do anything. You could try to haggle Atari and who knows? Of course, if it has anything to do with Obsidian I might as well pass... that's of course, a different discussion altogether.
In any case, your post is counter-productive. LGP is trying to get products into Linux. They may not be my cup of tea, but we should all be at least appreciative of what they do.
If he secures what he's finalizing the deals on you'll all be tickled.
And, yes, I'm teasing here, but it's about to look a lot better and while I doubt NWN2 will be done (Ugh... It's a performance pig as best as I can tell from what glimpses I saw from the DX9 driver team's analysis of the game. I can only hope the gameplay's better than the hatchet job Obsidian did with SW:KOTOR2... Had to test it against a new driver design for my past client- god, what were they thinking when they shipped it?) better titles than it ARE on the way. NWN2's only selling point is the module design tools to allow consumer made modules.

Midwest Living Review
Located off the lobby of the JW Marriott, six.one.six chefs use seasonal, area products in fusions of Asian, French and American foods. It's a melding of some of the world's best flavors. The Rhodes farms duck confit salad ($10) consists of a base of arugula slightly wilted from the heat of perfectly crispy duck leg. A sprinkle of marcona almonds gave flavorful crunch; a smear of citrus vinaigrette and cherry conserves had just enough fruit tang to balance the rich duck and earthy greens. The Dancing Goat gnudi ($25) -- a gnocchi-like combo of cheeses -- avoided any danger of blandness with a light searing that kept insides creamy and fluffy. Served on a bed of spinach, braised artichokes, basil-ramp pesto, morels and pine nuts, each bite was perfect balance of smooth textures and mellow flavors. Entrees run $24-34, starters $6-12, shared plates $9-12, desserts $7, scoops of gelato or sorbets (honey-lavender, pomegranate-black cherry) $3. To-the-ceiling drapes of wide stripes of browns subtly contrast with the neutral walls and woods of the flooring and seating. You can sit at a table overlooking the bartenders' garden and Grand River or the dimly lit interior room. Or sit at the chef's table, a granite-topped bar lined with 11 padded chairs that looks over the wood-fired oven prep area. There you can watch busy sous chefs plate and fire appetizers, flatbreads and salads. A morning breakfast buffet costs $15 and includes made-to-order omelets, Belgian waffles, quiche, plum and apricot coffee cake and loads of fresh fruit. Adjacent to six.one.six is the bar Mixology, where bartenders serve drinks they invent using cuttings from their herb garden, which can be seen from the dining room. The Love to Cha-Cha sangria ($10) is a refreshing mix of basil-infused Moscato, Cointreau, orange juice and grapefruit juice.
