My 23 week check up by
Carol Ann
Had my check up today. The girl's heartbeat is nice and strong. My BP is
120 over 70 and the doctor said I had gained too much weight.
ARGH! Her scale says 182 lbs. Mine says 173 lbs. So, I'm right and she's
wrong. Still, that IS an 18 lb gain since July 28th. YIKES! That's nearly
5 lbs...

conception question by
Mary
I've heard that sperm can live up to 3-4 days before the egg pops out
and is fertilized, but what's the story with sex after ovulation? How
long does the egg stick around until it's too late to be fertilized?
Let's say, for example, you BD at 2dpo. Too late? What about 4dpo?

U/S and ANOTHER O/B vent! by
Auntie Bubbles
Well, I had my first ultrasound this morning at 20 weeks, and it was a
fantastic experience! The technician was so enthusiastic and informative
and she was having a great time showing us all around our little beanie! We
saw the heart and kidneys and the spine and 5 toes on each foot and 5
fingers...

When can you feel the baby by hand? by
Jill
By placing your hand on your abdomen and feeling around? I keep hearing
people say doctors can tell if all is normal by feeling etc......all I can
feel on my stomach is unidentifiable. It feels like a hard, protruding
stomach.
Of course I think I may be showing small? I have no idea since this is...

OT -need bottle help please!! by
Kari
Xander is now 2 mos old and we've recently introduced him to a bottle (of
EBM) and he refuses to take it. We tried a few times right after he was born
so the kids could feed him (about 1/2 ounce each time) and he was fine with
it. I decided it was time to try again and forget it. We've tried Avent...

The Pill - Skipping A Period by
Lara
I recently skipped my period by throwing out the sugar pills and
continuing with my next set of pills immediately. On the last day of
my new set of pills, I got my period which is unusual because I
usually don't get it until 2 days into the sugar pills. Also, I find
that my period is a lot lighter...

folic acid question by
Mary
Sorry, I'm an idiot. Can you overdose on folic acid? I got a folic
acid supplement, to round out my chewable vitamin and calcium
supplement, and it's 800 mcg. The vitamin is 400mcg. Is this too much?
If not, the plan is one Flintstone and folic acid pill in the mornings,
and then 1000 mg extra...

Crowe - Danielle against anti-natal by

You'd be amazed at the fuss this is causing at a non-pregnancy/parenting
newsgroup. I'm guessing she'll do like most celebs and have a c-section
anyway. At the other 'group it seems whether the classes are useful or not,
they should at least take them. Anyway, thought some here might find...

Essential things for baby on day 1 by

My DH is insisting we follow his mothers belief (or old wives tale!) that it
is bad luck to buy baby things before the baby is born. He says we should
