Well I was just wanting to keep everyone up to date. I went to the lab and had my blood work done today. I guess I'll have to call my doctor in a few days to get the results. Even though my home test was positive, I'm still nervous about how this test will come out. Wow! They took 7 vials of...

This is common and happened to us. Go to our website http://home.comcast.net/~l.mcmahan and read the link entitled "PIH in the last 3 weeks". This is an account of how we dealt with the saem problem Also read the first page or so of "Clara's Birth Story." It contains more detail about how we dealt...

If thats the way he's going to be, then you are better off with out him! Doctors should expect to get all kinds of questions, and you deserve a straight answer for your questions or conserns. I mean come on, you're paying him to treat you and the baby! Sounds like he's just lazy when it comes to...

Hi all! Yesterday was my ob appt. Had a ultrasound and both babies look wonderful! They are estimating each to be 4 1/2 lbs. growing atthe same rate. My results of Saturdays 3 hour blood sugar were normal, my blood pressure100/50. I stopped gaining weight the last 3 visits as I just can't eat much...

*Probably pregnancy loss is mentioned in this post* I just found out some sad news through a friend; a mutual friend of ours is 18 weeks pregnant, and just went in for her ultrasounds. They discovered that she is pregnant with conjoined twins, and that they are sharing one set of internal organs....

Hiya, I was wondering when is it safe to take a few hour trips with a new born? My wife is due in Nov and were thinking about dribing down to Central CA. We are in Central WA. Its about a 18 hr non stop drive down. Do you think that it is wise or we should wait a while longer? Thanks for...

Meghan - she had a son Killian, wanted a VBAC but had another c-section with her daughter? Amanda (I think her screen name was A Green). I think she had an Elijah then a girl (or maybe another boy - I remember threads about more E names)? Jess - she had Julianne, was very young? Just curious...

I had an ultrasound along with my 33-week appointment on Monday. At 22 weeks I'd been diagnosed with marginal placenta previa, and unfortunately the midwife who told me the news had been quite scary when explaining the problem and also left out how common it is at that stage, and how often it goes...

I started having contractions at 36 weeks. They continued for two weeks, getting increasingly uncomfortable, and even prompted a "practice run" to the birth center during week 37. At 38 weeks, my doula advised crawling around to help the baby turn into a better position and hopefully get the...

I'm still pregnant. BB is doing fine and seems to be perfectly happy just where he is. I'm doing well aside from some nausea. This morning I was 3/50/-2 (had a busy week (contraction-wise) and was curious). That isn't much of a change from my last check aside from the fact that my internal os which...

"annafine" wrote in message ... ...when you went into labor? I've heard stories about people going into labor at the grocery store, movies, out to dinner, etc. Had to ask. Also, were you alone or was your...

Hi,anybody in the uk know where I can ask for the mat B1 form? The one I supposed to give to the human resource? The human resource told me that the midwife or the doctor supposed to give me, but, until 2 weeks after my 1st scan, nobody tell me or give me anything... Thanks

Hi everyone. Yesterday was Matthew's first day of preschool sniff. It was really just an hour and parents stayed the whole time. I was so proud of him. He didn't want me to sit with him on the floor and he was totally independent. I guess he's really ready. It was so cute to hear him say, "Excuse...

Does anyone know of links to sites on the internet that does comparisons of baby equipment like pushchairs/strollers, slings, Cribs, baby mattresses etc. I'm pregnant with #1 and I'd like to buy a few good things that will last me for baby number 1 (and possibly more babies if we enjoy the...

Does anyone know if I buy 2 of the same baby monitor, if I put the base units in 2 different rooms, can I hear both rooms through one receiver? I need to get a 2nd monitor and don't really love the one I have, but if I could use just one receiver, I'll just get the same one. Thanks, laurie mommy...

Could be a good thing, I would like to wait till maybe Tuesday or Wednesday. I know before I had said I wanted to go on the weekend but now I have...

Hello! I had nausea early in my pregnancy...like in the 3rd month or so (I don't exactly remember). But it was pretty much 24/7; though I didn't have any vomiting with it, I felt aweful all the time and didn't want to do anything or go anywhere. I had it for nearly an entire month straight and...
