  • Rachel- im sure it is your good work :smile: It all sounds like excellent advice and i'm going to try the same thing when my LO arrives. Have the four weeks seemed to go really fast?
  • Haha i do the EXACT same thing, and sometimes i end up eating most of the contents of a bag of m&m's becasue I figure I cant feel much bigger today :laugh:
  • I wish more people understood that pregnant woman can have 'fat days' too (days where one feels annoyingly large)
  • I was also worried about this, especially because the holes have never fully healed over. But looks like it will be fine, and maybe even better than fine! I didnt take my ring out until about the 5th month of pregnancy and i wonder if the subtle stimulation of having it in there has contributed to the extra colostrum i…
  • julz- CONGRATULATIONS!!! cant wait to hear about your labour story. Stick in there with the breastfeeding, im sure you will both get a hang of it:flowerforyou:
  • caperfae- thats so good that your feeling awsome, hopefully it'll last right to the end :smile: pinkprincess-welcome :flowerforyou: Elizabeth- I hope the contractions stop for you, did your doc have anything much to say about them? Julz- what did the doctor mean by "soft"? AFM: wow did i have a crappy food day yesterday!…
  • ambie- I was never a caffeine drinker pre-pregnancy but strangely its something i crave often now. maybe its just the lack of sleep :laugh: lindsay- I get pain in my lower right side alot also, and have for a few months now. mainly when i stretch out, especially at night scorpiomom- thats awsome that your doing a home…
  • Lindsay- Yeah i knew before hand, it had leaked out a few times when i wasn't wearing a bra which resulted on wet blotches on my t-shirt and bed
  • julz- im sorry to hear about your dad. If there's one thing i know its that the frustration of not knowing about a parents condition, or the details surrounding their well being. My mum is living in the medical capital of the world and they still havnt managed to diagnose her, its ridiculous. That family strain has also…
  • goldenfemale-I would definitely ask what your doctor recommends, but I think most people will suggest setting your mfp to the maintenance setting for now to simply maintain the weight you currently have, which will probably have you eating around 2,000 calories per day for now, depending on your stats. Its not really until…
  • meokk- thanks for the baby spinning advice, ill definitely give it a go. Julz- congratulations to your husband :) and yay for the new dryer! it'll be a weight off your mind having that installed. How are you feeling? has your cold gone away? elizabeth- congrats on the test pass!! katie- welcome and congrats on the…
  • weight stats- i am 33 weeks and 2 days and had gained 18 lbs at the last checkup, though im sure i would have gained a few more on my thursday checkup. So yesterday was interesting. In the morning b4 work i got a gush of fluid 'down there' :noway: , and after freaking out for abit I called my doc and she said i was welcome…
  • i also of course want to stress moderation to them also, as i myself have had scares with the bringing on of braxton hicks etc. :ohwell:
  • Scorpiomom- I have had the same thing. I have no other pregnancies to compare to but everyone has said that i look closer to 5 months as opposed to the 8 that i am. This has worried me on and off throughout the pregnancy but my doc assures me this is fine as long as im steadily gaining wait in a healthy range. Thanks for…
  • isabelle anabelle madeline isabella madison mckenzie julz- those reading are so inaccurate most of the time (from what ive heard) so i wouldnt worry :smile: LindsayChick-congratulations!! mommy2CnG- good on you for quitting smoking! I bet its hard but what an amazing incentive you have Kcurtis05- Welcome :smile: Ronya-…
  • jen- thanks for the support. Im slowly warming to the idea of having another bachelor/bechelorette party and an elaborate engagement party in my fiance's home town (florida) if he also like the idea. on a different note I was naughty and just had a quater pounder combo from mcdonalds, which is the first time ive had…
  • welcome to all new mommies-to-be!!! Julz- I hope the pain subsides soon. Your so close now! just hang in there :flowerforyou: So as i may have said before my fiance' and I are planning on getting married in New Zealand. My fiance' had asked three of his closest male friends from Florida to be his groomsmen, and we have…

I know its able to be done in…
  • happy 1st of september ladies :) Rachel- Im so happy to hear that you and baby are now home safe and sound :heart: I'm sorry that the birth was so traumatic and didn't go as planned and that home life is not yet running smoothly, but with some support and time im certain things will become easier:flowerforyou: thinking of…
  • Rachel- hope your first few days are going smoothly :flowerforyou: looking forward to hearing from you jen- I hope that you have no pre-e this time around! fingers crossed caperfae- I would totally feel the same frustration surrounding the little girl at the baby shower. Of course its natural for her to want to poke around…
  • GOOD LUCK RACHEL!!!cant wait to hear your stories :flowerforyou:
  • Had another appointment yesterday which went well. the scales said i hadn't put on any weight since the last appointment which was abit strange as i've been eating as usual and exercising less. Im 31 weeks tomorrow and have gained 18 pounds so far, which for my height i think is average (but i really have no idea :tongue:…
  • abeare- welcome and congratulations on the pregnancy!! As far as the question of when to tell people, the only thing id say is to remember the extra risk associated with the pregnancy in the first three months. because of this my fiance' and i waited until the 12 week mark to tell anyone other than immediate family, to…

  • ok im freaked out ): I had my doc appointment tomorrow and shes put me on a form of 'rest' until I deliver. She was concerned with the frequency and intensity of my braxton hicks and wants me to stop any and all activities that cause this. her reasoning was that she doesn't want my uterus to get used to this sensation and…
