Cat and the baby by
Jill
Whew. My cat has ended up doing ok around the baby. (If you remember I was
worried because my cat is persnickety and hissy and only likes my husband,
and me...)....we can't let the cat around the baby but it's not a big
stressful deal. We just keep the bedroom door shut if the baby is napping
with...

snorkeling? by
Elitsirk
I have a question. DH and I are getting ready to leave on a vacation
to Jamaica this weekend. We're going with several friends to an
all-inclusive place. I know that I won't be taking advantage of the
included alcohol, horseback riding, or scuba diving, but what about
snorkeling? That's just...

Told my students I wasn't coming back next year-it didn't go well. by
Donna Metler
I told my special group students-my choir and band classes-
that I would not be coming back next year, and why (that I'm pregnant and
my doctors don't think I should work during the last half of pregnancy,
which will start about the time fall classes begin).
Basically, half of them are mad and...

VENT: post-dates by
Elizabeth H Bonesteel
I am whining, and I know it, so feel free to skip. ;-)
My "official" EDD, .sig notwithstanding, was actually 5/18 (this came from an
ultrasound I had at 9-1/2 weeks; my original EDD based on LMP was 5/16, so
given that I know when I ovulated I was probably due 5/20 rather than 5/22;
but I...

How do you turn a breech naturally? by
Amy
Well, little Ana has decided she prefers to stay upright at nearly 33 weeks,
with her feet firmly planted on my cervix - ouch!
In fact two midwives who examined me failed to pick up that she was still
breech, because of how far her head was under my ribs. My midwife was a
little shocked and said it...

My husband causes blowouts! by
Jill
Ugh!!! I am so ....frustrated, with my husband, NOT the little munchkin!
My husband is back at work and I have been alone with the baby. I guess
breastmilk is not as constipating as formula would be because Rachel poos a
lot! She is surely getting enough to eat, it's "good stool".....anyway...

Am I risking it? by
ted
What's your opinion about a baby girl's name 'Avanti'? I absolutely
love the name. It has a nice meaning in quite a few languages.
Upon a search on this ng I found out about the non-latex brand. I wish
I hadn't searched :(
Anyways, what's your take on this name? If I have a girl and I name
her...

OFF TOPIC - DOES A HUSBAND...... by
S.B.A.
Does a husband have the right to sex simply because he is married to his
wife and vice versa ?
What if one wants it and the other doesn't ?
Should the un-willing partner be left alone while
the other goes to do whatever, or does he/she give
in because they love their spouse so much they want
to...

22 weeks along on my first pregnancy! by
Elric
Hello, My name's Heather, I'm new to this board, but I've been lurking
since before Animal (I've named the in utero kid after my favorite
muppet) was conceived.
So Animal's moved a bit, although at times I wonder if it's gas, I'm
sure it's a little of both. This morning, lying on my side, I...

was the value of my hCG on monday. Too low, but still increasing. I've
been trying to find info on what hCG looks like when you have blighted
ovum. I've had that before, but they only did bloodwork after the m/c
then, so i don't know how the values looked before.
OTOH, I feel similar to when I was...

Can a foot massage start labor? by
M Wayne
Now that I'm in my 31st week and can no longer comfortably reach my toes,
I'm treating myself to a pedicure tomorrow. I seem to remember reading that
there are parts of the feet and ankles that should not be massaged because
they can bring on labor, but I'm not clear on which parts. In case there's...
