I was an avid Cd'er until midway thru my second pregnancy. Something about EC at that point in time really caught my eye. And, I was very skeptical that I could do it though, with a soon-to-be 20 month old running around with a newborn....

I feel that it really depends a lot on what you are envisioning for your birth. With DD1 I had a hospital birth with a nurse midwife. Her bedside manner from start to finish was brusk. And despite the fact that I thought this efficiency...

I think this so depends on what your normal routine and exercise consists of, how your feeling, and perhaps what your healthcare provider thinks. With babe#1 I was walking to and from work (1 mile there, 1 mile back) daily until the end...

I had this happen too about a month ago. It seemed random to me so I didn't give it much thought afterwards, but right before bed my whole belly tightened up like a BH but then it just stayed super tight like that for a good hour or so....

Just joining in to say, there are others who haven't done the US. I did with DD1 since I was still learning and going with the course of things on that one, but since then, I really don't want one unless there is a need or concern that...

I'm so sorry. I'm due another month, but had to stop in and let you know you are in our thoughts as well. My condolences to you and your family.

I'm sorry to hear about the confusion you're dealing with. Ugh, lost bottles. I always error on the side of spending less $ since that's where we're at right now and things always seem to get there, but you always wonder as they ask...

I'm sorry you are not feeling better yet. I can confidently write that my nausea with this one (#3 for me too) has been the worst yet. And, due to that, I'm feeling very done with adding more babes. That, and I just feel full to the brim...

I am still a bit lost on the whole 'job' thing. I was somewhat happily working for a non-profit when they 'ended' my position after returning part time. I didn't want to return to work AT ALL when DD1 was born, but I had the health...

I am so enjoying reading here. Is it possible that you were pregnant on the MD due date list for Sept or Oct 2007? You just seem so familiar to me. I was due either month, and ended up having my DD2 Sept. Just curious, and I'm glad to...
