Merry Christmas to all, I hope you all got what you wanted this year.... My EDD is today... although, if all is well, I can't imagine that I'll be having this baby until the 13th of January. However...this morning about an hour after getting up, I developed a pretty painful stitch in my right...

I'm growing a little concerned that I haven't felt the baby move yet. I will be 20 weeks on Monday with my second child. We had our ultrasound on Friday and the baby was moving around a little bit, just wondering when i should definately feel something by... KR

Ok, this is kind of vain I suppose - please forgive me. At one of the antenatal classes we've been going to they were explaining how to express by hand - kind of like milking a cow. Now I grew up on a farm and milking cows was one of my jobs and I can only imagine that expressing by hand is really...

I got a positive test result yesterday. I didn't really need the test since I already knew. I've been through this before and the symptoms were unmistakable. I wanted the test to be positive but as soon as I saw the "+" sign appear, I freaked. "Oh my god, I'm not ready for this." was the...

Well...yesterday was my EDD. And yesterday after breakfast I got a major stitch in my right side. From about an hour after breakfast for about 6 hours. Then it went away like it never existed. This morning, an hour after getting up, it's come back. It's very owie, but I don't know what it could be,...

Hi, I created a poll to see how long it took most people to get pregnant. I'd appreciate it if you could spend a few secs and take it: http://www.pollmenow.com/poll.aspx?goto=271 I can share the final results when enough people have taken it. Thanks!

Question pretty much says it all. I'm ttc, and thinking about giving them a large wad of my cash. Should I? Any experiences yeah or nay? Thanks! Yellowgirl

I'm always searching the web for information when someone trys to explain something to me and i'm just completely cluless! My mom was telling me the other day about how she had had two miscairages before she had my sister and I. I love babies and it has always interested me how they grow in the...

Hello, I'm currently 7 months into my first pregnancy and have been experiencing pelvic joint pain for about a month now. I have the standard symptoms, such as pain when changing positions in bed, pain when walking, going up stairs, putting on pants (standing on one leg), etc ... What i am...

I've finally made arrangements with a midwife both my husband and I like, and I'm switching over to her for my prenatal appointments and the birth itself (it'll be a homebirth if all goes well). I am now in my 33rd week and was wondering what sorts of routine hospital tests I will be missing as a...

Would just like to say a Happy Christmas to you all, so glad December is nearly over cause it means that baby will be here before we know it. I am sorry if this post offends anyone but I really just wanted to say Happy Christmas!!!! Have a good one, drink and be merry but please be sensible...

Hi all I was supposed to have my Depo Injection done in August of this year. I did not have it done as my partner and I decided that we wanted to start trying for a baby. I have had one period since which started about 3 weeks ago but I am not sure if it was a "proper period" or not as I was just...

Does anyone know how to install the footmuff on a Mclaren Techno XT? I am sure it is very simple. What does one do with the strings at the top of the lining?

I haven't been here in so long but I wanted to stop in and say hello! Things are going great around here. I'm so in love with my new baby girl, she's such a wonderful, happy baby. Annabelle will be 3 months old tomorrow, and she's slept through the night for the past 2 nights! Aaron & Nick love...

I plan to co-sleep with my baby, just as my mother co-slept with me and my sister when we were little. From what I've been reading, the safest thing to do is sleep on a bare mattress, warmly dressed, but with no duvet or pillows. At least that seems to be the recommendation for the very youngest...

I had a m/c over the weekend and am still bleeding. We have friends in town, my kids are out of school for the holiday break, and we had lots of fun plans to go to the pool, beach, camping, etc. I've read that tampons should be avoided following m/c - how strictly should this advise be adhered...
