I'm sorry but I just had to share some of my little guy's pictures. Doesn't he look just like Tweety Bird in these pics? http://www.wonderbred.net/tweety/ (thanks in advance for humoring a proud bragging mama!!) Carla Mom to Victor Paul born 5.16.04

I've been trying to get hold of a copy of 'Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way', by Susan Rosegg & Peter McCutcheon. I've got the book Bradley himself wrote, but googling for past conversations on the subject on this group convinced me it was worth going for the Rosegg & McCutcheon book. ...

Hi everyone, I just wondered if anyone has had a similar experience to mine. We've been ttc #2 since af finally came back in February (DS was 13 months old). We've only tried during four out of six months, since DH was travelling with work the others. I've had what I hear are pretty standard...

I discussed this with my Midwife last night and she suggested it in case Micaela is sunny side up like my first born was. I know what the procedure is, I'm just really interested in other's experience with it. 36 Week check-up... Got my GBS swabs, which hurt more than the internal, yuck! -1...

hi all I have a question my milk supply is huge my baby is 2 weeks and 5 days and she is a little pig. I am constantly leaking I mean constantly, the midwives couldn't believe my supply. will this settle down? the amount of money I am spending on nursing pads is unbelievable. thanks for you...

Happy 35th Birthday, JennL (ModernMiko)! I hope you have a wonderful day! :-) -- Brigitte aa #2145 http://ca.geocities.com/bironmonger/ Please excuse the quality. It is under construction and I am still learning. :-)

Hi, I'm planning on having a child. Just trying to get a rough idea about how much a child would cost and see if we can afford one. I did some quick research and people in average spend about 5-6K on the first year. Every month after paying for all my monthly expenses, I only have about $675 extra...

Okay, I'm on day 12 or 13 after O, depending on whether or not you count the first day of the rise which tech violates the "6 day" rule of TCOYF. I've had pretty good high temps, too, creeping upwards from 97.8 or so to 98.3 and above, with the following recent temps: 98.3 (day 7/8 after 0) 98.3...

Happy 2nd Birthday to Sandi's Natalie! I hope you have a fantastic day! :-) -- Brigitte aa #2145 http://ca.geocities.com/bironmonger/ Please excuse the quality. It is under construction and I am still learning. :-)

If not, then here's Ana's :-) On 30th June at about 9.30 am we went in for our scheduled induction at 38w 4d. Actually, she wasn't probably quite that old because I know I ov'd late that month, but I wasn't telling - I wanted this baby out while she was alive, darn it! She was monitored for half...

Hi, My name is Shelley and I am Mom to Jacob, 2 1/2 and have been married to DH for 6 years. I used to post here when I was pregnant with DS in 2001 but have only lurked occasionally since then. I see that Sophie, who was pregnant with #3 when I was with my #1 just had another. Congratulations...

Yup, Gwendolyn the Wonder Baby is crawling! She is 3.5 months old!!! She's been working up to this for about a week - using perfect form, but not getting anywhere. But tonight, she most indubitably crawled about 18 inches in about a minute. Yowzers! This is exciting and scary at the same time....

Hello, My due date is in 4 days (july 23rd) and today my OB wanted to set up a induction date for next week. I told him that I would prefer to wait as much as possible because I really don't want to increase the risk of having C-section. He told me that after 39 weeks, the risk of C-section is the...

This is for Jill and others in the same boat. Here and there in this newsgroup I read mentions of the baby getting upset prior to meals, while mom is getting ready. Often, this is something babies learn, by mistake, from mom's behavior! The baby recognizes the getting-ready steps, anticipates...

Sorry I just got a ltter in the mail saying I passed my 3 hour glucose test! Now I am making Peanut Butter Bars w/Chocolate Chips and Potato salad for a cook out I am going to tonight and I dont have to feel guilty about it;) Tori -- Bonnie 3/20/02 Xavier due 10/17/04

Ok, It's about car saftey.... I read recently somewhere that you should always keep your items in the trunk....BECAUSE if you would get into a wreck ( even a fender bender ) then something could hit your baby in the head,,OR another person or you...( it was a canned good ) that I read about that...

Alexander Tilman was born at 4:35 am on July 9th, weighing 7 lbs 1.4 oz and 19 inches long. We are all settling in here. Basic birth story: My membranes were stripped last Thursday morning. I was dilated when I went in...about 3 cm and the midwife said she was able to stretch me to 4cm. It was...

Ethan Roy was born on July 14 at 36 1/2 weeks. I'll post a birth story later. Ethan spent the first week of his life in NICU while he resolved a problem coordinating breathing and sucking (he was having shallow breathing episodes where he turned blue.) Thank goodness he is strong now and...

We were scheduled for a C-section on July 22nd but Hedgehog had other plans. I went into labor on Saturday and had her via C-section on Sunday morning, July 18. We're happy and well, and breastfeeding is going exceptionally smoothly when compared to the problems I had with my older daughter. I'll...
