Ticking biological clock no longer just for women Gentleman, the biological clock may toll for thee, as well. New findings released yesterday by separate American and French research teams indicate that a man's age can compromise his fertility -- a concern that has long plagued women. at...

Hello, Group: Yesterday, on Friday my Wife had NT scan performed. The results were very concerning. The doctor called us with the new that our baby might have Down Syndrome, since the Neck fold measured at 5.9 mm. Profile: My wife is 26 with no history of Down Syndrome and I'm 28. My wife...

Since my last post on May 27, "Stuck in Hospital"... We were doing so good today, hadn't bled for a day, been in hospital this time for a week, when tonight at 11:30pm I started to gush blood again... followed by contractions... followed by passing a 5 cm x 3 cm CLOT! Ewwww... what the heck was...

Had my homevisit and 36 week appt last night and all is well :). Heart beating strongly, BP still good, baby still in position although this time he/she was straight, like a torpedo aiming to head out..... he/she has been head down for ages. I hadn't planned a waterbirth, only because I figured...

I was going to post this in one of the pregnancy loss newgroups but seems all of them have a readership of zero. At least on my news server they do. I know that people here have been through similar predicaments. I hope this is alright... So here it is: A friend of mine was pregnant and due the...

Normally, my heart, I think, is beating at about 80ish bpm... Lately, though, actually a few times today, it seems to have gone just wild and about an hour and a half ago, I counted and it was 118bpm... Just now, it was at 126bpm. Anyone know what a normal heart rate should be? I feel like this...

I'm thinking of you and hope all is going well. Haven't seen a post from you since you posted about the clot. If little Isabelle had to make her arrival, I hope all is well with both you and her!! -- Joy Rose 1-99 Iris 2-01

I lurked here and posted occasionally beginning in 1999 and also frequented some other AP email lists. I am trying to figure out if there are archives for some of the AP lists from that time (1998 - 2003). More specifically, I would love to know about the development of the babywearing and sling...

Hi all I did a home pregnancy test a few days ago and 2 lines showed up. 1 line was really dark and the other was a lot more faint, almost hardly visible (but definitely there!) Does this mean that I am pregnant? Thanks Clair

it was Monday when she posted "should I call the midwife?" what do you reckon, has she had the baby, what are your bets on when, weight and head circ? I'll go for Wednesday, not comitting to time of day!, 7lb straight and head circumference 35.2cm. Hope everything is well with you Lucy...

I hope you are ok. I hope you didnt get run off by idiots. Tori -- Mom To: Bonnie (03/20/02) Xavier (10/27/04) From the end of the earth I will cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed:

Since rev. jack has come along and been annoying, your post has been a lot further from being read on most screens, so you may not have notice that Lady Penelope ..... appeared and posted, she gave web addresses of the two midwives, who sound very experienced, definitely worth contacting,...

Hey all. If you have any advice or experience, I'd appreciate it if you shared. Last Saturday, when Hale was a day old, the ped noticed he made a funny sound when breathing in while he was crying. I can't remember the word the doctor used, but to me, the sound is like a "snort." He mentioned it...

Hale is here! The vital statistics: Hale was born at 2:57 p.m. on 6/2/06, and was 9 pounds 3 ounces, and 21 1/2 inches long. For a number of reasons, we opted for an induction on Friday, June 2. I checked in at 7:30 a.m. and was given a quarter dose of cytotec around 8 a.m. It had my dilated to...

I last posted a message about my concern of a clot passed while on bedrest in the hospital with complete placenta previa. A few hours after my post, I awoke to extreme hemmorhaging (nurses said over a unit in a minute- it was insane!). They immediately rushed us into the Operating Room, and...

I'm so glad, Joy!!! I think about you guys alot. :) Em mama to Micah, 11/14/04

I will preface this by saying my husband is the best when it comes to helping. He is right there to diaper or feed or play with Holly whenever he can. My little issue is with when she cries. She usually just fusses and cries hard core only once in a while. When she does, I feel like I am going to...

Well we had our two month visit. The boys are doing great! Brock is 14lbs 2oz and 24 inches while Ben is 11lbs 9oz and 23.5 inches. They each had three shots. Brock was ticked off royally about the whole thing. Ben took it a little better. He was really sleepy so went back to sleep...

Alright, I bent and went for that triple screen maybe a week or two ago. I checked the mail and there was a letter in there, so after opening it up, it says this: Results of prenatal rubella blood tests We received a laboratory report of testing that was done as part of your prenatal...
