CONGRATS RIO!!!!!!! SO VERY HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!

Kaylie - Like others have pointed out..what ever you choose is best for you and your baby. I had a similar experience with my DD I made it to 3 months (extremely painful) but felt like I couldn't leave the house for those 3 months and it was really difficult but my Mom pointed out to me I am the ...

Thanks everyone for the advice. I have decided to do what's best for my baby and I which is to do whatever I can to stay stress free. Happy momma=happy little man!! :D :D

Leora - I am praying for you that your little ones stay strong. My thoughts and prayers are also with YOU at this time. I have ...

Hi ladies! I have a quick question for those of you who have formula fed your little ones. I feel extremely guilty about having to make this decision but due to Christian's jaundice and the latching issues (we also have a case of thrush) I am contemplating formula feeding exclusively. He was able to ...

Hello everyone. I just wanted to upload a few pictures of the family that we took on Saturday. I didn't do any maternity pics so I could do these! LOL! :D :D

I hope everyone is doing great. We are on freakin' cloud 9....I could not imagine it would feel this way. I don't mind in the least getting ...

Hello everyone!!!!

Amanda and Sonya....I'm so thrilled for both of you. Your little ones are absolutely precious. I don't have much time for personals (as always) because my husbands kids are here and I'm pumping every 2 hours because my little one will not latch well due to the high level of ...

Hi ladies! This question is mainly posed to those about to give birth...ARE YOU FREAKING OUT AS MUCH AS I AM???? :shock: :shock: I never thought I would be this nervous. I am so very excited to meet my son but I am questioning everything. Even my marriage. I have been having thoughts such as, "I ...

Hello everyone!!! It has been a while but I have been reading at least once a week and cheering all of you on. Life has been extremely busy so I have not had time to post much.

Stephanie - :D :D Your little ones are absolutely amazing. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Sonya: My due date buddy! Congrats about ...

Hello everyone! I have been stalking and thinking about everyone on this board. With finals happening and a full load in college, I have rarely been on the computer other than to study. My Mom came up from Florida and I decided to have a 4D ultrasound done. She has never seen one and I feel that she ...

Hello everyone! I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I stalk the board almost every day and try to do personals but it seems that I never get around to it. With college, step-children, pregnancy, hubby, etc....it gets so busy as I'm sure you all are as well. I just want all of you to know I ...

I'm definitely excited to be a part of this board!!!! :D :D

Glad to see everyone is doing well.

Quick question, have any of you been experiencing some low dull pains. My pains are about two fingers up from the pubic bone and way inside. Does not feel like cramps or ligament pains. It comes and goes, it is not like contractions either, it will stay there for 30 min or so and it doesn't seem to ...

Freckles - are you sure the 1st trimester screen is more accurate than the 1st? I read that the 2nd catches more cases accurately than the first does. Maybe there are different ways to assess the accuracy.

I have read on about.com that 90% of positives on the first trimester screen turn out to be ...

Hello ladies. I just wanted to give you a quick update on my situation with my 2nd trimester bloodwork. As you know the 1st screening was fine but my NT showed an echogenic foci on the heart. Also my 2nd trimester bloodwork came back with a higher risk for Down's. My OB said that the 1st trimester ...

Ok....here's how the story goes. I'm a bit annoyed so please forgive me.

As I said, my OB nurse called and said that the bloodwork came back and showed abnormalities. Of course, I freaked out. (By the way, I drove to Florida from the DC area last Sunday to spend a week with my family.) Once she ...
