Michelle, Actually if your son ever needs it, there is no guarantee the cord blood stem cells will still be available at a public donation bank. If someone has a similar match to your son's blood type, the public donation bank is free to offer those stem cells to that person without notifying you. ...

Apparently my uterus is the size of a 20-weeker! I just about had a heart attack thinking they missed seeing a twin on the u/s at 6 weeks. Dr. said it was my body remembering my previous twin pregnancy. It happens to some women. /roll eyes But heart beat is strong at 150 bpm. :-) --

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

Hi, I'm new to the list. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for about 2 months now. My period is late. I am on day 29 of my cycle. I have been having mild-medium constant cramping from day 25. My cycle usually lasts from 26-28 days and it's usually earlier than late. My cramps during my...

My son who just turned 4, has been holding in his poop. He has ben doing it for over a month and he also has totally stopped playing in that month. He wont go outside and swing, swim, play ball, ride his bike, or anything. I just realized that his inactivity is probably related to him not...

Hello, I'm wondering if this group has a FAQ or a website for newbies to go to? Or does anyone have any words of wisdom for someone thinking about trying to have a baby? (Yes that person is me) Thanks, Meagan

Hoping there's another short woman out there driving a car with a clutch and has found a solution to my trouble! I'm at 34 weeks, and right now I've got about 1.5in of room between my belly and the steering wheel. Being short, I'm pulled all the way up so that my foot can get the clutch to the...

Hope you both had a lovely day :o) -- Andrea If I can't be a good example, then I'll just have to be a horrible warning.

Just got back from my 38-week midwife appointment. Everything's fine. I don't know what my blood pressure or any other measurements were, they didn't say and I didn't bother to ask. Oh, except I'm measuring right on 38. I declined to be checked. Met Midwife #3, the only one I hadn't met yet. ...

I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind words of congratulations on the birth of our new daughter, Halli, and our birth story. I would love to be able to thank everyone individually, but I just don't have the time at this point. Thanks again to all! It means a lot to me! ...

I googled and all I could find is that it's like a tear that either is not worth stitching or is too difficult to stitch? Can you guys give a good description? Does it hurt much after? Leave scar tissue? Bleed? etc. -- Dagny EDD 10/6/03

Well, hopefully I can get through this before Miss Halli needs me :) On Friday the 15th of August, I had my Midwife appointment at 10:30am. We had already scheduled an induction for the 17th if I hadn't gone into labor, as my DH had some business commitments that he couldn't get out of. At the...
