"last" prenatal visit by
B. Felix
In my mind -- since the next one is scheduled for 39 1/2 weeks. I
don't
think I am fooling myself too much about when baby will come -- I seem
to
keep shifting my preference to whatever gestation is about 10 days, 2

but I lurk...

"Morning" sickness (VENT) by
Paula Johnson
I just need to vent someplace where people get it about how SICK I am
with this pregnancy. Constant nausea, from the moment I wake up to the

Parenting pundits proliferate
A couple of generations ago, parenting advice came from grandma's
traditions, the neighbor's opinion or, in case of a high fever or
temper tantrum, a dog-eared copy of Dr. Spock.

Pregnancy and weight

from diarrhea about once a week for the past four-five weeks.
Blech. Then it was two days in a row (Wednesday afternoon,
Thursday night). I called the OB's office, and they said

Pregnant teens risk bone loss

not become pregnant: Young mothers risk developing osteoporosis, a

"soft sign" on ultrasound by
DL
Hi all,
Last week was my ultrasound, and today I had a follow-up with my

usually indicating...
