Starving! by
Nina
I was worried earlier that I wouldn't gain enough weight. After the 3 months
of nausea passed, then I had a period of "anoerexia", I just did NOT want to
eat, never felt hungry. My weight gain has been PERFECT my midwife said, but
I was still concerned the baby would be scrawny because I wasnt...

Something to giggle at by
Alicia Elliott
Last week I was sitting with my Mum and my Love and we were talking about
all of the special adaptations which might be useful for a pregnant woman to
aid her getting around, and to make her a little safer in public. (I am only
able to say this because I am quite enormously pregnant at the moment) ...

Very Little/No Movement? by
Zucca4
I'm in my 23rd week and for the last few weeks have felt the baby lightly
thudding inside my belly after dinner whilst lounging in bed for a bit. Had a
very succesful 20 week sonogram and everything was "perfect" according to the
doctors. My placenta is low at the moment but we'll wait for the...

?'s about early preg ultrasound by
Henrietta Louise
Hi, everyone.
I have my first prenatal appointment on Tuesday. If you go by my LMP, I
will be six weeks. If you go by when I am 90 % sure I ovulated, then I
will be 7 weeks.
The nurse I spoke to said that the doctor may do an ultrasound. The idea
kind of freaks me out because I am afraid of what...

dropped at 31 weeks in 2nd pregnancy? by
Nancy
I'm at 31.5 weeks in my second pregnancy, and I believe the baby
dropped sometime in the last few days, although I'm not noticeably
"lower" to others' eyes. My first never dropped - she was induced at
38 weeks - so this is new to me.
I can certainly breathe more deeply, especially when sitting,...

OT Has anyone here used Henna? (x-posted) by
andrea
I really want to use henna hair dye, but I read somewhere that once it's on
you can't get rid of it unless you grow it out.
On another site it says it last 4-6 weeks!
I am confused.
I really like the idea of using a plant extract on my hair. Also is it safe
to use when breastfeeding?
Thanks for...

Vent about Dr. (loss and other stuff mentioned) by
Henrietta Louise
Ok, just to forewarn you....this post is going to discuss things that
could go wrong in a pregnancy, so if you don't want to read about such
things, you should read no further.
First of all, my insurance doesn't include a lot of doctors. The nearest
midwives are over 2 hours away. My favorite OB...

Another 31 week update by
sher
Another uneventful appointment yesterday. Everything is going well.
My only complaint is my feet. They haven't been swelling too much,
but the little bit of swelling I have had is making them very stiff
and sore that it often hurts to walk even when they aren't swollen.
Unfortunately, my doc said...

Feeling a little silly... (a tad graphic...sorry!) by

Well, gang, I am feeling a little silly right now. I woke up around 2 a.m.
this morning with an awful backache that wouldn't go away no matter how I
positioned myself and some rather uncomfortable abdominal cramping (not too
bad, just worrisome). I was so uncomfortable, I didn't fall back...
