My ultrasound is at 2:15 today. I am so nervous. I still feel very few symptoms. It makes me worry that something could be wrong. But, my doctor guesstimated, based on the dates I gave her, that I am now 9 weeks and 1 day pregnant. Today we will be able to get a more accurate date......I'm...

Yesterday I had my 34 week check up, which included a Strep B test. BP and weight is okay. Baby is approximately 4 lbs now. All seems well. Internals to begin at 37 weeks. I will discuss the purpose at my next appointment in two weeks. On Monday I took Infant CPR and Safety. It was...

I have a bassinet and crib. The crib goes in her nursery. The bassinet can be used either in MY room or in the Living Room (where my mother sleeps on a futon. Her choice!!). I was thinking about getting the 5 in 1 Pack N Play that has the full sized bassinet AND changing table. What do you...

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. No milk is flowing. Morgan has been sleeping allot since her shots this morning and she hasn't been able to finish feeding properly. I want to pump. Can someone help me? -- ~Carol Ann Mom to Morgan born 3.24.04

Do you use them? At what age? Does your child like them? What type? Just trying to find toys to amuse Morgan while in stroller. ~Carol Ann Mom to Morgan born 3.24.04 http://tinyurl.com/23bym ---Pictures!

I can't believe it! Poor girl was miserable tonite. Her top teeth (only 2) came in. Awwwwwwwwww. She's growing so quickly!! ~Carol Ann Mom to Morgan born 3.24.04

Surely seems to be taking a long time to come. I still breastfeed, but not as often. Any ideas on when my cycle will come back? Anyone else still not having theirs? ~Carol Ann

Morgan has Robeez, Adidas, Buster Brown, Darling and a few others. I LOVE the Robeez. I am however, needing to find her some more shoes. I was thinking about First Walkers in Leather by Darling (they have a great special buy 1 get 1 free...use discount coupon 2for1nut). Do you recommend the...

Is it possible for the baby to strangle herself while moving around so much? My girl keeps tossing and turning and I'm getting worried b/c I read that the umbilical cord is about 20'' long by now. ~Carol Ann www.bestinatlanta.com/mybaby.html

I'm going to create a page at: www.bestinatlanta.com/mybaby.html to document my pregnancy. I have some ultrasound pics and some recent pics of me and my friends to add. Additionally, I'm taking some "pregnancy" pics. I wonder, does the set up look okay? What should I add?

At 40, it is recommended that I do an amnio test to determine genetic abnormalities. What is your opinion on this? ~Carol Ann www.lowcarblosers.com ~ Home of the Monthly Weightloss Challenge

I can't believe how little energy I have had over the past couple of days. I am just sooooooo sleepy. Any advice? I try to eat more frequent small meals. Drink lots of fluids. Sleep at nite. But I've just been so tired. I'm at between 8 and 10 weeks along. Carol Ann

I have your recommendations for the Advent breast pump and Medella auto pump. Do you all recommend breastfeeding? If so, for how long??? Is it painful? I heard it was. Any advice? ~Carol Ann www.lowcarblosers.com ~ Home of the Monthly Weightloss Challenge

My spotting (bleeding) became worse this morning. So, I was admitted to the hospital for monitoring. I never actually saw a doctor. The OB nurse (who was wonderful) monitored the girl's heartbeat and movement. WOW, is SHE active. What I thought were gas pains turned out to be the...

It sucked and left me irritable and tired. Can we all say, "Ouch!". Geez. Honestly it was worse than the two amnio sticks I endured! I did ask if I could lie down somewhere (per someone's recommendation here, thank you!) and was able to do so. I had to not only give blood 4 times but also...
