Today I got a package in the mail. I was kind of excited because I never get packages in the mail, then I opened it and saw it was baby related so that was great too. Till I opened it and discovered a container of formula. How do they even get my address?? I'm not planning to use it so I guess...

Hi, I recently gave birth to a baby girl (just under 2 weeks ago), and I have had a hard time trying to fight off visitors. It started when I had only been home from the hospital one hour and someone turned up unannounced to see the baby. Then friends and family asked to come over every day since...

Hi All, I am 22 weeks pregnant mom. I have done my U/S and as results, I got everything normal expect that the LF/BPD was juged low (67%). The average is 71-83 %. My OB/Gyn asked me to repeat the U/S in 2 weeks. What does that mean? Is my baby in high risk? Has anyone experienced that before? I am...

MARIJUANA RELIEVES MORNING SICKNESS? Prefatory question... If MDs can illegally close birth canals up to 30% and illegally rob babies of up to 50% of their blood volume (this causes obvious harm to fetuses, see below).... Why can't pregnant women illegally smoke marijuana to treat their...

Hi everyone. This is my 6th baby and I'm 34 weeks, 4 days. I saw the midwife this afternoon and she says the baby's head has dropped and is in my pelvis already, though it's not actually engaged (the head engaging before labour happens more with first pregnancies apparently). I believe that the...

This may not be directly related to pregnancy but for me, it is :) I have precious few months to read all books I can find because once I have two kids at home, there goes the time for books.

I'm just curious what the average time people spend in pre-labor. Not the horror stories saying it lasted for 8 weeks or anything. Just what is the average time. and by pre-labor I mean the period like cramping the dull lower back ache being sick to your stomach and having diarhea. And being...

Hello-- I had an OB appointment this morning and found out that I am measuring small for my stage of pregnancy...I am 33 weeks along (34 on Monday) and measuring at 31 cm. OB told me that this really isn't anything to worry about, that it could just be the way I "hold" the baby and that they...
