Hi there baby-dreams,

Welcome to this site and all the best for your treatment!

No, never heard of the card you have but sounds fantastic if it can help with the costs - good luck with that and if it works for you, share the good news - plenty of couples would probably love to benefit from it too ...

Hi josie1967,

Best of luck with the treatment - you'll get lots of support here from the many, many people sharing your position. And don't worry about the estrogen levels... I personally found they varied in response time from treatment to treatment and since the clinic you are attending are on to ...

I swear this baby hasn't stopped moving ALL day... it's doing kick boxing in there. Been getting even more Braxton Hicks too - at what point should you stop thinking 'oh there's another Braxton Hick' and instead wonder if preterm labour may have started?

How are you guys doing?

Anyone with VBAC experience?

Hi everyone,

My doctor has suggested I might be a candidate for VBAC (vaginal birth after c-section) but I don't know much about it at all.

If you've gone through VBAC or know a good source of info, would you mind sharing it?

I had a c-section for my first and there will be aprox 15 month gap to ...

VBAC query

Found out I might be a candidate for VBAC but don't know anything about it, so am a bit worried. Had a c-section a year ago - it will be 15 months between that and my due date. Anyone got any good literature / experiences that might help??

Thanks
Caroline

Been to my docs twice since my last post. The first time he told me off for putting on 1KG too much, the ...

Hi there,
I'm 26 weeks with a second pregnancy and have just completed a return longhaul (Singapore-London) and 2 short european return flights.

My doc said there is an increased risk of DVT, so drink plenty of water and walk around every hour or so. No problem with our 1-year-old in tow!

Must ...

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say that it is totally understandable to be worried about those ligament cramps, but they are perfectly normal, honest!

Had them a lot with my first pregnancy and was concerned myself but they're a good healthy sign as it means your uterus is growing well and stretching ...

Hi wannababyIVF - so sorry to hear you are so bad. I hope this doesn't last too long for you. Keep trying different drinks and nibbles until you find something that helps. What a shame your hot date was ruined, but you'll be able to do it again properly when this phase is over.

We had our first ...

Hi everyone,

have been reading all your posts with interest - always great to hear how you are getting on.

The 3 weeks wait to our first scan has really been dragging. At the beginning of this week the clinic rang to say that they were postponing my first scan by a week as my doc was on a ...
