Well, my turn to get into In-Laws conflicts... I don't know how to phrase my concerns/frustration. My father-in-law is the type of person who has a theory for everything. He is also the type to, as his ex puts it, "pontificate". The way he talks, it's as if he is always right, he knows...

Hello, all. This is my first post in this group, although I've been lurking here for a while. I just tested positive on the home pregnancy test. This is very exciting news. However, I have the following concern: For the last two weeks, I've taken some meds, and I'd like to know what your...

Hi y'all! I saved a whole bunch of threads on cloth diapers and was going though them last night, as we are preparing to move Sophie into cloth just as soon as our stash of shower-bestowed paper diapers runs out. Someone mentioned using strips of flannel as diaper liners. This may be an ignorant...

well I went to the doc today and things are ok I did get to here the babys heartbeat and it wasn't that difficult to find this time as it was at my 10 week appt. the baby has moved up. But why I say things are ok is because I have been put on a high calorie diet and have to eat very frequent...

My hCG this morning was 293, up from 155 exactly 48h ago. Doubling time at this stage is typically 48-72h, so I'm happy! Although it probably won't be twins anyway, but at least there's one bub there doing its best to grow bigger. I have to go back in a week from now. Hopefully we can discuss an...

Hello everyone, I've posted here a few times & been given some excellent advice and I'm hoping for some more :o) Our baby was head down at around 30 weeks but moved into a breech position just over a week ago and hasn't turned again though at the moment the midwife doesn't seem too concerned. I'm...

Something strange just happened, and I'm not sure if it's good or bad... : / A few times, but not many, Taylor has thrown such hissy fits that I've held her tightly to me, pinning her arms, and repeated "Calm down. Calm down. As soon as you can calm down, we can go back downstairs." This has...

Hi y'all, happy Christmas/Solstice/Yule! Sophie is two weeks old now and is suffering from newborn congestion, which I understand is normal, but she is so stopped up and miserable! It's gotten worse over the last few days because we've had the heat on (snow! on the first day of winter! That's rare...

Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and many blessings in the New Year. Some of you might like this poem I found: http://www.christmas-time.com/ct-wicked.htm -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "Life is like a cigarette -- smoke it to the...

"Susan" wrote in message ... I recently had a loss at 17 weeks, and had to go through labor and birth at the hospital. As I was recovering on the bed afterward, the research OB came in to talk to us about the...

and hopefully the last time we'll make THIS mistake... My mom and step-dad bought Taylor a table and chairs from Pottery Barn Kids, which was delivered more than a week ago. It's been sitting in it's boxes (each chair in a box, and the table in a box) in our living room and dining rooms. We...

Ok, This is getting annoying and I just need to update everyone anyway. Since the 24 I have been contracting. Yes it is actual contractions and not Braxton Hicks. I will get these strong ones and they will be 7 to 10 mins apart for like 3 hours then when I go to call the doctor or by the time...

Hi Folks! I posted this message before in reply to a woman who was asking about interacting with her unborn baby. But it got lost. I didn't realize that you had to use the right arrow key to see (response) messages - something I disovered quite by accident. So I am re-posting this information...

I didn't know to avoid feta cheese!! I am about 3 weeks pg and had a Greek salad yesterday. Today I've felt like I'm coming down with a cold which is probably unrelated. How much danger is it that I had one salad with feta on it? -- -Kelly kelly at farringtons dot net "Wake up, and smell the...
