Dakota - I felt the same way about the '15-20 minutes for a couple of nights' story on CIO. I didn't find that to be true in the least. Ruby got it after a couple of nights but she did cry about an hour, several times. She does slide back every now and again but for the most part is a great sleeper ...

Hi Ladies!!
Congrats new mommas! Neffi, you nailed it. The most shocking thing for me in this whole experience was the emotion and the indescribable love you are instantly filled with the moment you touch them. Truly a life changing moment and I too am so excited for all you that are getting ready ...

Don't forget the car seats, you'll need them installed to take your new bundles home.

My friend said to have a little bit of formula, just in case you need to top off or something unforeseen happens. Also mits for their hands so they can't scratch and a few hats. A health care kit with a rectal ...

Hi Ladies,
I am on house arrest too and wish I was doing better with it. I managed to walk to the corner store and was exhausted by the whole thing. Not to mention the looks I got like, wow she's gonna pop right now! I need a wide load flag.

I was just reading about hiccups. I guess it is their ...

I am 36 weeks 2 days with twins and have had a great pregnancy. I am uncomfortable now for sure, not able to walk much and feeling lots of pressure but nothing to put me on bed rest. Just volunteer house arrest because it feels like it could happen any moment. I am scheduled for a c section at 38 ...

I am having twins any day now and just finished with buying/getting all the stuff. For sure if you can get things from friends, neighbors do so. We have been lucky enough to have received a lot of barely used items like bouncy seats, exercise jumpers, clothes, bumbo seats, etc. This is also a much ...

Dakota: Sorry you are having a rough ride towards the end here. It will all be worth it. How is you're body handling staying on your left side? Just sleeping at night is an amazing chore on my left. My left butt charlie horses like crazy and my arms keep falling asleep. I have to get up walk around ...

Happy New Year's all! Hope everyone is hanging in there. For me it is a mix of it's too soon, and not soon enough.

All is good here. I am 35 weeks tomorrow and doc says we can go anytime. I have a scheduled c sec on 1/22, but my guess is I will go closer to the 15th. I am pretty darn uncomfortable ...

Hi Mommas!!
Well, sorry I dropped off the face of the earth. There were so many things going on I just couldn't keep up. I was also having a hard time staying away from bad news on the boards that would freak me out, so I had to take a leave.

I just popped on to see how this forum was doing and it ...

Angram - I am so sorry! Geez girl, what a scare. I hope you are taking a few days to lay down and rest. I bet that will do a number on the sex life. Glad to know everything is ok. Why did they say you were at higher risk for downs? Age only or something else in addition?

Dakota - I haven't check my ...

Hi ladies - wanted to drop by quick and let you know I couldn't take it anymore. I went to a 4d place and paid $100 to find out the gender. We are having 2 girls!!!!! The tech said she hasn't been wrong in 7 years so I guess that is it. I also got a ton of print out pics and a CD Rom of 40 pics. We ...

Haven't posted in a while, but am always checking on you guys.

Joanie - I was just talking with my doc about this yesterday. She said that even if they get vertex/vertex the first one to go can kick the other out of position and back up high in your uterus. I know this is such a tough call, I think ...
