How to go about finding a new doctor?? by
sleepy67
Well I'm knee deep in boxes getting ready to move to BC at the end of the
month and still haven't found a doctor there. I will be due for my first
bi-weekly visit the first week I'm there too! How does one go about finding
a doctor to do prenatal care and the delivery? I've checked with DH...

Thyroid and Pragnancy by
Larry McMahan
I just heard a report this morning about a study just published
in JAMA that hyperthyroidism can be just as bad for a fetus as
hypothyroidism.
Apparently it is common for doctors to recommend that women who
are taking medication for hypothyroidism to increase their dosage
during pregnancy.

weeks ago shows a TSH of 2.00 flat (2nd followup 10 weeks ago was
4.1)... and now I'm eight weeks pg!

Bottle feeding by
Di Gamaroff
Hi
I am really concerned that my 2 month old will simply not take a bottle. He

no glucose problems for me! by
Vicky Bilaniuk
I'm just suffering from end-of-pregnancy symptoms! I have been getting
these weird highs and lows (during the high phase, I feel fine, but
during the low phase, I feel like total crap). The mood has been
overall pretty bad, though. I'm constantly in the mood to bite people's
heads off (sorry if...

Bilateral renal agenesis. by
Cathy
A friend who is due 10 days after me went in for her 'routine' 20 week scan
yesterday, and came back with this diagnosis. Oh boy - basically no kidneys
or bladder can be seen, and the chances of survival for the baby are nil.
She seemed so strong on the phone this morning - I had to hang up while...

39 weeks/ cervix closing? by
Rob and Jami
I just got home from my 39 wk appt. I'm kind of discouraged though.
First off, my bp and the baby are doing great... that's the most important!
But, last week I was 2 cm dilated & 90% effaced. Now she says I'm barely 1
cm dilated! How does that happen!? I've had TONS of contractions,...

February due dates 02/05 by
Mary S.
How are you feeling this month, three-monthers? You're almost out of
the first trimester
(depending on how you count) -- still feeling sick or tired, or are you
starting to pick up? Do you look pregnant? Heard the heartbeat yet, or
still searching for a care provider who fits your needs? Is it...

39 weeks and counting by
A&G&K
Still here and waiting ... which seems strange to me as I was geared up for
action when the head engaged a couple of weeks ago ... but it popped back up
and while it is low in the pelvis, its not actually engaged again yet.
BP was fine (125/70) and weight keeps bouncing up and down by a kg or...

Progesterone supplementing (longish..) by
Ilse Witch
I think I mentioned elsewhere the decision has been made in favour of the
progesterone supplements over Clomid. It was made for me, as the biopsy
came back normal, so Clomid wouldn't do much for me. The nurse told me to
ask for progesterone suppositories, and if they weren't available,...

it's weird to run into someone as pregnant as you are by
Vicky Bilaniuk
It's weird to walk into a store and the woman who comes up to help you
out is just as preggo as you are. ;-) She's due within a week of me.
We joked that we would see each other in the hospital. It must have
looked really comical to see us, though. Another worker in the store
stood off to the...

How do you relax by
Donna Metler
I had my 18 week appt today. Everything looks great, and my OB's one
addition is to try to spend several hours a day sitting with my feet up or
lying down, just relaxing (since we're going into what we know to be a high
risk time for me-as he says, the one thing we don't want me to do is to

Weird symptoms by

For the past week I have been waking up with a pounding headache and
feeling slightly nauseated. If I take two Tylenol it goes away but
sometimes comes back in the afternoon. I also feel like my heart is

blood volume? It's very...
