I have suffered from PND since the birth of my first son. He is now two and I still have not got a grip on why I want to die on a daily basis. I just want the ground to open up and swallow me. Why do I still feel like a the worse mum in the world and that my beautiful, enchanting and wonderful...

DD2 is one week old today. I'm shocked by how much she sleeps. She seems to wake only to eat and then right back to sleep. She has only one or two brief alert periods in the day. When she's alert, she's very alert, but it doesn't last long. She was born one week early by scheduled c-section. ...

Hi... I am currently on my period (first day was Monday, August 28). Tuesday night (Aug 29), I had unprotected sex. I take the birth control pill, Lo-Ovral 28, and I took it perfectly this past month. BUT - during the third week of pills (week before my period started), I took a Z-pack for a...

About a bladder infection... I think I'm feeling it now, 3 days later :( Went to the washroom earlier this evening and I felt a bit of the stinging pain that I know comes with a bladder infection :'( I'm back to small amounts of dribble, but add a slight burning feeling this time around. It's...

We were going to start trying for #3 next month, but ended up bd without protection a few times this month. Now the last few months I've spotted for 2 days at the start of each cycle, but I've now been spotting for 4 days. It's all brown blood, and not much at any one time. It seems to be...

Hi. I haven't had access to the computer for a while so I haven't been able to update or participate the way I've wanted to. We're now at 21 weeks. Well, in less than two hours I start the 21st week. We had our big ultrasound and found out we're having a girl! I thought it might be a girl, and...

I was touched recently, but rather than talk about that I want to bring your attention to the plight of the people in a small African village, somewhere in Africa. In Africa an alarming almost 700 children a day are born without proper mothers, and this is a direct result of the lack of...

I just came across an article by the World Health Organization recommending against jarred baby foods due to contamination with semicarbazide, a cancer-causing chemical: "http://www.who.int/foodsafety/chem/sem/en/index.html" The European Union has banned the particular type of seal used in...

In the last few days I've been getting a bit of heartburn. Not too bad, but not exactly fun, either. It feels like I have an acidic lump at the top of my trachea, rarely spilling over into the back of the throat or mouth. So I'm bothered by it but not exactly suffering excessively. I took a...

I'm very happy I can write about it now!! Yesterday driving back from Santa Cruz (2 major highways and a very wind-y mountain road) my vision started getting blurry, I got a horrible headache, really pukey-feeling, shortness of breath, pounding heart, etc. It was so bad I almost pulled over and...

Long Journey? Annoyed by that crying child? Fed up with smacking that tearful youngster? You know what it's like - children will do anything to make sure your journey is a living hell, and no sooner have you booked the flight than 'junior' starts screaming and your wits are in tatters. That's why...

Hi, my doctor only delivers at Surrey Memorial, does anyone know of a good doctor accepting new patients that delivers at Royal Columbian in New West.? Also one that delivers on weekends if need be? Thanks.

Just curious how many of you eat or have eaten raw sushi while pregnant. I avoided it with my first two children, but have done some research and also know the restaurant I'd be eating in and I'm tempted to have some tomorrow night. - Jen --

I wanted to know if anyone has had a baby around October. I'm due October 23 and i wanted to know about taking the baby out in winter. My husband and I typically go out for walks with our dogs frequently in the winter. Our average temp is between 30-40. Has anyone had experience with taking...

I took Jess for her 2 month injections today. I was really stressed about it anyway, as I didn't fancy seeing my lovely baby in pain. I got there at 8.40... my friend came with me, and her car broke down on the way, so her mum had to come and pick her up... so we all went to to the surgery. My...

how far along were you when the midwife/doctor told you the baby "dropped". or started the unending feeling like something is about to fall out of you everytime you stand up.
