btw, about the question I asked about being permanently scarred after pregnancy, I dont want to sound shallow or evil or something. Inshallah thats not my intention. To me it's a scary thought to think that in a few years my stomach will probably never be flat or stretch-mark-free again

my sis is almost 27 with three pregnancies and two kids and she doesn't have any stretch marks.. She hasn't even really gotten into exercising and you can barely tell she's had kids. I think the trick is to have kids while you're still young and in good shape

my mom told me that the ideal amount of weight to gain during pregnancy is 25 - 30 lbs. She said that immediately after birth you lose about 15 lbs of that and over the next few days 5 is lost and the rest is up to you unless you wanna look slightly pregnant forever

bye islamica, i'm going to eat chocolate

do it do it do it! Stupid little beeyotches, I'll help you

assalamu alaykum

ahaha. JUST when I edit my post, eh?

I'm not overly possessive, such behaviour is tolerable when it's a few girls...groups of single girls eyeing up the husband with their beady eyes whilst i'm right next to him...now I understand why he prefers me to wear niqab when there are shabaab around!(I might start doing that maybe ) What annoys me is that they're Muslim..do they have no shame doing it so blatantly? Just rude.

Anyhoo. Baby love and what not

So what do you guys think of burkinis? I used to think they're idiotic looking but they've kind of grown on me. I might be going to Florida for a week this summer and I would rather look stupid in a burkini than look stupid in jeans + shirt + hijab (my sister refuses to be seen with me if I choose to wear a burkini ). I think of it this way....I can look weird and out of place either way but at least with a burkini I can go in the water or actually do normal stuff non-hijabis do.

Any thoughts, suggestions, experiences?

[zzze]

assalmu alaykum

doesn't a burkini defeat the whole point of hijaab? Tight fitting and all? I say go in with a jilbab and dry off somewhere secluded when u get out (shouldnt take long in florida?)

[Sugarberry]

im saying that what women fear about sex, some men also fear.

too bad you cant ask a potential what their gonna be like in the sack....just becasue he's a nice guy...doesnt necessarily mean he will be able to please you in the sack.

man im totally gonna have to delete this post as well hahaha

oooh white font

My old supervisor never sent in my reference form for one of my job applications . I just called to check up on the status of my application and they said that that was the only piece of information missing. They need a reference from my university and she was my university supervisor for student teaching .

sugarberry-- you're hilarious

I kind of agree with zzze about it being tight and defeating hijab. Even as a Floridian, I avoid swimming at the beach. If I did go to the beach, I'd wear light-material sweat pants and a t-shirt and find the most secluded part.

I own a burkini but never even had the opportunity to use it.

Where in FL you coming to?

I heard that the wrinkly belly look is also extremely common after giving birth and that it NEVER goes away unless you have seriously good genes (I mean look at Crawford, she was skinny again 6 weeks after giving birth but her stomach STILL looks like that ). This makes me never want to have children of my own. EVER. Why the heck am I working out and taking care of myself now only to end up (literally) scarred for life a few years down the road?

wow. i mean, just wow.
i could say something here that's probably really mean and sarcastic but i won't.

but i will say that cindy crawford looks dayam good for having 2 kids. wrinkly belly and all.
