I would like input on naming the baby Yevette. My husband would love to name her Yevette. His mom is Yevette, his grandmother is Yevette, his great grandmother is Yevette, and believe it or not, her mother was Yevette. First of all I think Yevette should be spelled not Yevette but rather Yvette. I...

You think I'd know this, having been through it before, but last time it was so miserable and I want to do things better this time. At just 19 weeks I've had heartburn all weekend, despite eating nothing more acidic than a clementine. Since the heartburn is due to the open valve, does it...

Hey all, I was just wondering when I should be expecting my period? I gave birth 3 weeks ago... Thanks Sara

I don't know if this is fetal movement, or just my uterus growing! Every once in a while I feel a twitch, sort of like when you've got a tic in your eye, in my lower abdominal area. Sometimes I'll feel two in roughly the same place, a few seconds apart. For those who've been through it - does...
