OT Anyone here used henna? (x-posted) by
andrea
I really want to use henna hair dye, but I read somewhere that once it's on
you can't get rid of it unless you grow it out.
On another site it says it last 4-6 weeks!
I am confused.
I really like the idea of using a plant extract on my hair. Also is it safe
to use when breastfeeding?
Thanks for...

Teeth! Ouchie! by
Andrea
I gave up breastfeeding my others when they were 7-12 months old. It was
given up when they kept biting me.
I vowed to try my best to get through this this time around, and even had a
glimmer of hope when someone here mentioned their baby didn't bite. Not so
lucky, Kamrons biting is getting...

Biting phase is over! by
Andrea
I kept on putting Kam down as soon as he bit me, and it worked! I am so
happy!
Nursing is so wonderful right now, the way he breaks into a big beaming
smile part way through a feed - so cute!

Kami is over the CP, but his face has some nasty loking scars. Will they

I'm soooo broody! anyone else? by
Andrea
Kamron is almost 9 months old now, and the urge to get pregnant again is
strong!
I think it's because my kids are all 18-22 months apart, so my fertile time
has started.
Anyone else got the bug yet? ;o)
I often wonder if my biological clock ticks a little faster with early
menopause running in...

The wisdom tooth was really tough to pull out, the dentist said the roots
were very long.
I had it done on Thursday, and on Friday I felt much better, but today
(Saturday) I feel awful. I have pain at the...

Could this pain be from taking Zoloft? by
Andrea
I have been on Zoloft a few months now. It worked right away and I felt
great. But it has lost it's effectiveness. I am on 50mg, do I need a higher
dose?
Also for a few nights now after taking my Zoloft tablet, I have been in
agony with waves of heartburn type pain, but no acid came up. The pain...

Andrea
Monday at 8 pm ITV1 (In the UK), apparently every woman to be should watch

slowly.
I will be watching out of interest.

Andrea
After 9 or more positive pregnancy tests, followed by negative tests with no
bleeding but pain, my dr sent me for my u/s, but when I got there I was
told as my tests were negative that they wouldn't scan me unless their test
was positive! That's why I was there! I was so angry, as they had done a...

Chicken pox - not immune?? x-posted by
Andrea
Poor Kami came out in spots on Wednesday, and Thursday he was covered. He
had been happy as anything, but last night was awful. He cried all night and
had a fever, the paracetamol and flannels didn't cool him. He is now fast
asleep on his daddy, and is cool.
I wasn't worried about chicken pox...

I thought it was meningitus? by
Andrea
Kamron broke out in lots of tiny red/purple spot on his leg. A couple of the
looked like bigger bruises. I did the tumbler test (pressed a glass against
the spots) and they did not disappear.
I rushed up to my doctors surgery, and saw the worst Dr they have, who is
well know for misdiagnosis. He...

I totally flunked my Postnatal Depression test :o( by
Andrea
Turns out despite my efforts the dreaded postnatal depression is back.
I really though I wasn't going to get it this time. My health visitor asked
lots of questions and I do have it again. I knew deep down inside, but I was
ignoring it.
I have never treated PND with meds before, and I won't, just...

sad about nanny by
Andrea
Oh Anita it must be hard. My munchie man is 11 weeks old, and leaving him
would be hard for me if I had to. I think you are very brave, but it's great
that you are doing this for you and your baby.
If you think about the situation you have an advantage, the time that you do
spend will be very high...

Milk Banks in the UK by
Andrea
I found an article with the names of the participating UK hospitals.
http://tinyurl.com/ry7o
I am going to contact them myself. It mentions women being put off by the
HIV screening, but they test for that during pregnancy anyway, so moms would
already know.

Pregnant (I think)? by

Hi all,
I have been rather busy, Kami has got Chicken-pox!
Also yesterday I did a clear blue pregnancy test and got a positive result.
It's one of those tests with the cross. The pregnancy line was lighter, and

However, I have no idea how far I would be now, I know i'm...
