I was listening to the radio today and it was a program where people call in to voice their opinion. In this case, it was about the fact that the US ambassador to Canada has just given a scolding to our PM Paul Martin for his constant criticism of the Bush administration since the beginning of...

Just gave birth on Sunday last week. I've never suffered from dry skin before, and now I have patchy areas from my elbows to shoulders that are scaly and ITCHY. My stretch marks itch really bad too, but I remember that from last time. Should I just use my Palmer's stretch mark cream on the itchy...

laundry and house cleaning and making a man happy is why god made girl ..

At my rheumatology appointment on Wednesday I was suprised to hear the doctor say, something along the lines of "so, you've had pelvic and lower back pain since the birth of your child" (nods) "which was a difficult birth, wasn't it", I responded with surprise, she came out the right hole with no...

Hi everyone, My husband and I talked the other day and he's currently a little worried about carrying the baby through a crowded place. He's nervous about 1) dropping the baby and 2) bumping the baby into things. We have a convertible carseat, so we can't use it as an infant carrier. I also...

We're going back East for Christmas, and just found out that DH's aunt has shingles (she'll be with us for a few days out of the week). I'm getting conflicting advice about how contagious it is. I *thought* that it was contagious if you come into contact with the weepy stuff (ie that it's...

I just found out I am pregnant. I am scheduled to have xrays of my mouth at the dentist. Will this harm the baby?

I realise this varies drastically from place to place, I'm just trying to get a general idea of salaries, hours worked, how the situation works out, etc. Here's our situation, which is still a hypothetical: We're hoping my soon to be 18 yr old niece who will graduate HS this year will take up the...

doctors have been stressing over my friends baby, too small, not growing etc, she arrived last night weighing 7lb2oz, so I suppose her growth could have been slowing, but I doubt it, the mum's bump seems to have grown each time I saw it, whereas another friend they did twig that things...

Well, here I am folks, waiting, waiting... having waited for 12 days for DD1 I wasn't expecting it all to happen today, but I'm hoping I don't go too far over. So, I've had the accupuncture, taken the homeopathic remedies, slurping raspberry leaf tea as we speak, been for a hilly walk today...

I will be getting confirmation from my OB of what week I'm actually in when I make my first appt, but I am curious to know now. I am due 9/1. My first day of my last MC was 11/24. I ovulated somewhere between 12/2-12/6.

We had the typical 18-20 week ultrasound with both of our first children, partly because we never thought to do otherwise, partly because of the fun involved (and we wanted to know the sex), mostly for reassurance. This time, I'm not so sure I want to do it. I've never had any reason to think...
