Does anyone know where online I can get some kind of thing to use to hang a cute baby quilt on a wall in the nursery? I've never hung a quilt before. (Or is there a store/chain offline that carries things like this?) If it's wood I wish it could match the nursery which would be difficult since we...

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I've been offline quite a bit the past few weeks but I've tried to poke my head in for the birth announcements. One I haven't seen is Alexis (Auntie Bubbles)? Any word? To any I've missed congrats and to those that are in the home stretch good luck! And...

Although I am mainly a lurker ....... Alexander (Alex) was born on Saturday April 17th at 38 weeks. 6lbs, 6oz- 18 inches long- A quick induced labour - 6 hours- start to finish!! Ang proud mommy to Ian- April 11, 2001

Hi there. Hubby and I are finally ready (as ready as anyone ever is) for a baby in our lives. We started trying a couple of months ago, and despite a miscarriage early on, we're hopeful of getting pregnant soon. Any advice is more than welcome :o) Thanks Jen (TTC#1)

Hi all. I just had to release some anxiety amongst friends. I have my first OB appt tomorrow early afternoon for this pregnancy. By my calc, I will be exactly 8 weeks. Even though I have had no spotting and am still having preg symptoms (and re-took the HPT and it was pos a week ago), I am freaking...

My baby is 9 weeks old. Before the birth I did my research which said that you feed on demand (which I take to mean when the baby is actually HUNGRY, not whenever he cries) but that you shouldn't let him go longer than 4 hours between feeds. So I guess this isn't really demand feeding as you are...

Hi all! I am 7 weeks along on my 3rd baby. Interesting posts on here! Heather

My pubic symphysis dysfunction (spelled wrong? sorry if it is) has gotten REALLY painful lately. I get this awful burning sensation during walking. I actually used a motorized cart at the supermarket this morning (I felt a bit silly but it was a HUGE help). My understanding is that there is...

I have a few questions for women who are or were on lovenox during their pregnancies due to a blood clotting issue of some sort. I had a blood clot while on the pill and have an lupus anti-coagulent that puts me and baby at a little more risk during the pregnancy. I've been on lovenox shots since...

I normally have swollen feet and ankles, due to plantar fascitis, damaged bursa sacs (old karate injuries), and flat feet. Add pregnancy into the mix and I suppose I was doomed to end up with huge feet and ankles. Actually, I didn't realize how bad they were until I finally decided to start...

Hi; Does anyone have a good diaper disposal system? The diaper genie seems like a money eater, cause one has to buy the refills. Diaper champ seems like a better idea, cause it seems like one can just use regular garbage bags for it. Safety 1st, if the same as the diaper champ, but cheaper. I...

Since Mr. Gastaldo has decided he can diagnose Grace's initial breathing problems from a distance, he should probably have the information that actually, I didn't labor on my back in the first place, so I don't think that had a lot to do with it somehow. Labored on my side and delivered vertically,...
