It was quite a blast (in the negative sense) to learn that a tri-phasic BBT doesn't imply pregnancy. I've read TCYOF cover to cover, and it doesn't say anywhere explicitly that this happens or why. I ovulated on CD17, had a second jump in my BBT on CD26, it lasted for four days well above (~0.3...

I'm sorry..am I the only one that saw the humor in "women that need support"????? LOL! Nope.. LOL... Funny. I am willing to joing the ng, though. I have big breasts... they got much bigger after bf'ing. I can use all the "support" one can muster:)

All this talk about nasal congestion reminded me of a remedy that works as well as sudafed for me. I am going to do some reading on it.....Quercetin taken as directed on the label, usually 1-2 times per day works very well for nasal congestion. I used to use it instead of anything...

Hi everyone, I am right at 37 weeks pregnant. This baby is due on January 19, 2004. My son was born exactly four weeks early, but that was nine years ago and I had problems with my home life, my blood pressure, and other things, so far with this one everything has been amazingly wonderful,...

I am a father to be and I am looking for reviews on every thing you can think of that has to do with babies. I have been using www.consumerreports.org but have found that their scope of gear is narrow in such a broad market. Does anyone else have any good web sites you've run across? Thanks

We started DS on rice cereal at 5 1/2 months and have gradually increased to oatmeal, sweet potatoes, peas, beans, carrots, pears, applesauce, etc....at 7 1/2 months. We give him solids usually twice a day, and no more than half a little jar of vegetables and then some cereal mixed with fruit. When...

I went for my second ultrasound today. The first one did not show anything, because I was too early. Today, I was 6 weeks 2 days. We were able to see both babies. Yes, both. We're having twins!! We saw their heartbeat. They are measuring at exactly 6 weeks 2 days, and my due date is still...

The infant rear-facing carseat we used with my ds will be 4 years old when new baby arrives. Ds hit 20 lbs at 6 months, so the original seat was only used 6 months. We did not use it like a baby bucket, very rarely carried him around it, never rode him in a stroller in it, it was pretty strictly in...

Sophie, I forgot to ask - which sex do you have a preference for this time? Honey

Hi, I have been reading a few posts here and I'm ready to post now! I just found out a week ago that I was pregnant (I had no idea) and just had an ultrasound today that told me I was around 8 weeks along. The pregnancy is hi risk and I am freaked out to tell my family and friends yet, so i was...

im not going to have a baby if the doc shaves me when i have the baby because i like hair down there.

Hi Everyone, I have been lurking for a few days now and thought I would introduce myself. I have enjoyed all of the wonderful posts. My name is Glenn and I will in the Denver area. I will start trying to conceive in Feb. I thought it would be best after the holiday I won't be so stressed. I...

Wow, I can't believe it! I got the official word today! My hpt's were all correct! ;-) I will have my first prenatal appointment in January. I just wish I had an idea of when I ovulated so that I might be able to make my own little estimate for the due date, but the truth is that I have no...

Hi all, Sorry I haven't been posting much lately. But now, there is BIG news: our son Sem was born on Dec. 21st! Fortunately, the ultrasound I had a couple of days earlier, showed that he was _not_ breech as both the OB and we were thinking, so I could have a 'normal' birth. My water broke Friday...

X-posted to mkp and mkb I wrote a couple of weeks ago to say that my body was out of whack post D&C as "AF" was only a tiny little bit of brown spotting ... well it turned out to be implantation spotting. I got a +ve hpt last Thursday (5.5 weeks after a D&C at 9w1d), but wasn't sure if I could...

As far as I can tell, there are no early signs of labor. It just kinda happens. Unless your water breaks early, there is no way of knowing that labor may or may not be about to begin. Anyone agree/disagree? Another thing- my wife has rheumatoid arthritis. In the past few days it has caused a lot...

This was posted to a mother who asked advice about spanking her child. To follow up on what I said before, I don't want to recommend without knowing what is going on, what to do. It is your choice as a mother, and must be guided by your own thoughts, those of your daughter, and your husband, as...

Wow..I will be 20 weeks on Monday and something certainly has popped out in the pregnancy this week.....I feel like a freight train has hit me. I am extremely tired (and having a hard time sleeping, but I am so lethargic and tired all day long)...lethargic is the word. Also have been feeling...
