The baby WANTS to have me in her mouth, so I allow it even if it lasts for hours upon hours through the nite? I lay down and feed so that I can sleep at nite. It's okay for Morgan to stay latched on? I'm needing clarification. It IS okay to allow her to stay latched on for hours? She cries...

A friend of mine is 18 weeks pg and still cannot feel *any* movement. I was feeling flutters by at least 14 weeks and I am very overweight (she is about 112 lbs soaking wet!). Is it something she should be concerned about? Or is it because she is small, her baby is small and therefore she can't...

yesterday, with my husband in tow.. it was ok. It's a birth/family center located right at the hospital. They have very tight security it seems-- which is GREAT! They don't allow people to carry newborns in the halls, they must be pushed in the bassinetts and they have electronic security tags...

I had a classical C-section with my first pregnancy, and I'm noticing quite a bit of pain now, even early in the 2nd pregnancy. My OB says that it will hurt some as the scar stretches, but I'm seriously wondering what this is going to be like later in pregnancy if I can already feel it at maybe...

Why does it seem so much harder to keep this pregnancy a secret?! Last time, we held out till I was 13 weeks. This time, I think half the world knows! Today at coffee group we were talking about getting pregnant, as 2 of the other ladies are. Someone asked me when we were thinking of...

Ehrlich's infant son recovering from surgery The infant son of Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. and Kendel S. Ehrlich is expected to be released from a Baltimore hospital today after undergoing emergency surgery for a fairly common stomach condition...

I have a 3 (almost 4) yr old. his skin is pure white, and very fair. up until now, his face has been totally clear of any markings. now he has a cold/allergies and has been running a low grade fever off and on for the past 2 days. I noticed Sunday morning that he had these very small,flat, red...

I have this vague idea for a bumper sticker that says something like: Midwives: Better, Safer, Cheaper, Nicer But the adjectives are wrong. I definitely want something that says midwifery care is less expensive, because to whomever pays the ultimate bill (insurance company for example) it is. ...

So I had my first OB visit today. It turned out that it was with a different OB from the one I thought it would be but overall I did like her. She explained pre-eclampsia (which I do have) as well as what the 'plan' is for me. It was quite different from my MWs who've learnt to ask what I...

For this baby to come out! And I am just now starting week 38. So I am happy for her to cook as long as she needs to but I am ready!! I feel so yucky, and have all weekend. Little aches and pains, joints hurting, big stomach etc. Nausea etc. But there are no signs of labor being soon or anything,...

I'm quite confused about infant formula. Is any infant milk formula safe for baby? Any recommendation? My baby boy only 1 month old, i'm thinking to give him milk formula, but I'm still not sure. Thanks for your advice.

I haven't been here for two years now and my second baby was two in February. I have found myself wanting another baby for quite a while now and I have been trying to talk myself out of it. I now realize that all my reasons for not having another baby are a pile of crap and that I have been doing...

well, I'm still 4cm dialated and 90% effaced though I'll know if I've progressed more on Wednesday after my OB appointment. This baby is being so darned stubborn and obstinant. I've been very suprised at just how bad feeling the last week has been. During my 36 and 37 week I was uncomfortable...

Ugh! For about a week now I constantly feel like I have an upset, crampy stomach. I have been throwing up again and not able to eat much, and get nauseous a lot. (I am about at week 34). But what's worse, is my stomach hurts. Some part of it is BH contractions we have figure out, but...

Our 1 mo. old has developed alot of acne. It's mostly concentrated on the right side of her face, head, and neck. There is some scattered on her left side. I thought at first that it was her clothes detergent but then thought she would have acne all over. Someone suggested to me that it's...
