Hey nicole,
my friend just delivered a healthy baby boy last week and she had the same thing. She said she could hear a cracking noise when he moved. The doctor told her it was the baby's ligaments and that the only way to know if it were ok were after delivery. I guess time will tell if he does ...

Hi wolffie-
FET's do really work, and I have a beautiful 2 month old boy to prove it! I did 2 fresh IVF cycles non of which worked. After the 1st cycle I did an FET and it was a bfn, but my 2nd FET after the 2nd fresh ivf cycle worked! I was very fortunate that each time all my embies made the thaw ...

Wondercat- I did not have GD with my pg but I am a pre-diabetic(borderline) and was prior to my recent pregnancy. I take medication for it and it successly prevented me from turing diabetic during pg. From what I know about diabetes having a high fasting blood sugar means that you most likely had ...

Oh Marina- It just never ends huh? That is terrible what happened to you, but thankfully you are ok and the baby is too! It must be so hard to take care of a new baby with all that going on, as if it is not hard enough. I would definitely sue the doctors for medical malpractice. How is ds doing with ...

Lili- You were not too far off on the hispanic thing. My father grew up in Argentina and his family did not speak any English while I was growing up. So my grandparents spoke to us in spanish only. My dh is also hispanic by the way. His mother was from Columbia and his dad from Argentina like mine ...

lili- My dd was a quick delivery too but it was just such a different situation. Even though I love her dearly, I had no interest in having another baby. Her pg was a bit of a suprise and I was young (23) and her father and I had just split up after 7 yrs of being together before I even found out I ...

Hi girls- So did anyone else have their baby yet?

Rinnie- Sorry to hear about your mom, glad things have calmed down. I had the numbness and tingling in my right hand and the last week of pregnancy it got so painful I had to wear a brace. It is still bothering 2 weeks after delivery but not as bad ...

Marina- I did breastfeed the first few days but supplemented with bottles because he was getting yellow and I was worried about jaundice. I breastfed my dd and she got jaundice and had to stay in the hospital longer than me and needed bottles because the fluid helps clear the high levels of ...

Hi Marina- Well here is the whole story.....I went into the hospital Mon June 29 to start the induction. I got there around 5 pm and they never bothered to tell me I wasn't allowed to have anything to eat or drink for 4 hrs before they were to start the cervadil (spelling ?). So as I walked in I had ...

Hi girls just wanted to let you all know that I had my baby earlier this afternoon. It was a crazy and exhausting birth but he is absolutely beautiful. Francisco Alexander was born 6/30/09 at 2:31 pm. He was 7lbs 3 oz and 20 inches. Well I am off to bed I'll check in soon and see how everyone is ...

Well girls I am officially 39 weeks today and still pg! I was having a lot of contractions sunday and monday and then they just stopped. They were very irregular but painful and weren't doing much since the ob checked my cervix on tues and I was not effaced or even starting to dialate. I am hoping ...

Melissa- sounds like the babies are a good weight especially for twins. How many weeks are you now? Afm, my office has not checked my cervix once! They do things so wierd. I go for a weekly biophysical profile (BPP) but have not had any NST except for when I have been sent to the hospital. I had a ...

Lili- It has been really quiet lately! Hopefully everyone is doing well.

Nicole- I hope all your spotting has stopped. I remember how nerve wracking that was.

Melissa- I hope all is well with you. You have been through so much with this pregnancy.

Marina- How are things with you?

AFM, it has ...

Tara- I went through a very similar situation. My NT scan was normal and my first set of blood work did not put me at higher risk. However, when I had the second set of bloodwork done they told me I had a 1 in 37 chance of having a baby with downs. Of course they recommended amnio, but I was also ...

It has been so quiet around here lately, so I hope everyone is doing well.
At my last u/s they told me that the baby's kidneys are normal. Yay! They also said the baby was already 5lbs 12 oz and that was at 33 1/2 weeks. Yikes! The doc told me if I didn't go into labor naturally by 39 weeks he would ...
