Ugh! Niece will be having a planned c-section by
Circe
So, my husband's sister's daughter is pregnant with her first. Her due date
was originally the 10th of October, but about midway through the pregnancy,
it was moved up to the 25th of September. Yesterday, my SIL told me that she
is going to be having a c-section sometime this week without even a...

Help! Spitting up/nursing problems xpost by
Jill
I am so frustrated. I posted a little bit about this on MKB but this is a
call for help to both groups. MKP.
We had Rachel checked for pyloric stenosis- she is ok and doesn't have that.
So WHY, why, why is she projectile spitting-up- I can't call it a vomit- it
just flies out of her mouth and...

Number of kids -- 2 vs. 3? by
Alphawave
I'm only 4.5 mos. postpartum but I can't stop thinking about whether we're
done with making babies! Every time Quinn leaves something behind, I get
misty-eyed about it. No more gummy grins, no more coos, no more
swaddling, all the newborn clothing is packed away now, etc., etc. The
other day we...

Amniocentesis - cons/pros by
Elana
Hello, all!
I would like to know your opinion: does it make sense to request
amniocentesis even if, G-d willing, there are no risk indicators for
this? Has anyone done this test without indicators and regretted it?
Has anyone NOT done this test and regretted that?
Thank you all!
Elana

My own name question by
Denise Anderson
Ok.. My DH is gonna be deploying this week so he definitly won't be her when
this DD arrives. All the sudden I'm terrified I won't be able to fill out
the birth certificate paperwork because we haven't agreed on a name yet.
Here's our short list. I've won the middle name battle, it doesn't...

sterilizing bottles and water by
Donna
A couple of times in the last few weeks, I've read posts by really reliable
people saying that they sterilize bottles, and boil the water that they use
to make formula. So now I'm wondering if the advice given me by my OB that
it isn't necessary to do so, was not correct. What do you all think. ...

Just a little DH rant by
Tori M.
I have been holding off on this one because DH ticked me off yesterday (ok
not hard to do i am 31 weeks pregnant;)) When I was in labor with Bonnie I
kept getting left alone and i did not like it. DH pointed out that it was
never for more then 6 minutes (cig breaks) but I felt abandoned none...

In-law story - Still more trouble (vent) by
Zaz
Good grief.
I thought I had started to manage things well with my FIL for the past few
weeks, but I guess it only had to do with the fact that we didn't see him
for the past three weeks! We had gotten into the dreadful (to me) habit of
going to see him with DD every Sunday. I tagged along, as I...

Feeling a big anxious about induction vs. c-section by
Todd Gastaldo
Joybelle wrote:
Initially, when we were given the diagnosis of spina bifida, we were told a
c-section was recommended. It made sense what the doctor said (less chance
of injury to the lesion), and we were planning on doing that.
Well, the next three or physicians said there was no...

DH's parental leave by
Zaz
That's it: quite in advance, because he always feels he "owes" something to
his boss and colleagues, DH has announced to them that he will be taking a
two-months parental leave (January and February 2005). He will also be
taking one week of vacation after I give birth in November. He's filled...

Shopping list by
Amy
I think I'm starting to nest. I feel a sense of urgency to start
buying supplies for after the baby's born - I'm thinking specifically
of things that I'm unlikely to receive at a shower - like pads. No one
is going to give you a big box o' Kotex as a gift, right? So, what
things do I need that...

External Monitoring starting on due date? by
Kathy
Hello Everyone--
Yesterday I had my regular appointment with my OB (I am at about 38
weeks plus 3 days).
As we were going about the appointment, she told me that she would
induce once I am 10 days past my EDD. This didn't bother me TOO much,
as 10 days is better than I expected from her...I...

30 week update by
bookers
HI
I am 30 weeks pregnant.
I had my LMC - Midwife appointment this week and everything is fine, my
blood pressure is low which is better than being high, my baby has a strong
heartbeat, she is lying transverse but that's fine because she may turn but
if she doesn't I have to go in at 36 weeks and...

when to test, when to test...? by
Mary
This waiting is killing me!
My charting software says not to test until 18 dpo. That seems awfully
cruelly torturously late, doesn't it? I know better than to test now
(8-9 dpo), but don't most tests say 14 or 15dpo at least?
POLL:
When did you test?
Did you get a negative before a...

X Posted: Ear Piercing... by
New York Jen
For Lily, not me. I'm so on the fence about it, but I know the earlier I do
it, the better off we'll all be (because she won't be old enough to know to
pull at her ears, etc.)
Our pediatrician gave us the ok and I found another pediatrician's office
that does it.
What are you...

I can't believe Im due TODAY! I had both my other 2 early so Im a little
suprised I haven't gone yet. I did have quite a few contractions last night

Good things come in pairs! (x-post) by

The results from this morning's u/s: all is well! Two tiny hearts beating,
two little babes growing. They are exactly the same size, and lag a couple
of days wrt singletons, but for twins that means all is right on track! My
parents are over, and went with us to see for real. I think my mom...

Carol Ann's Amnio Test Results by
Carol Ann
The results are IN! Unfortunately the doctor is OUT! Yup, it's true.
Emory faxed over the results late this afternoon so I won't hear anything
until tomorrow.
The good news is that I WILL hear something tomorrow. I'm not feeling as
hopeful as I had in the past, but it is best to know and be...
