Work from home??
Hi! I am newly pregnant and my husband and I have tossed around the idea of me staying at home, as opposed to my full time job as a respiratory therapist in a hospital. Anyone out there working form home? Or know of any good career paths that allot for this? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Pregnant
Does anyone know any foods that will help with an upset tummy? I am nauseated all day long, and while I can typically eat through it, I feel terrible. I have tried crackers in the morning, sucking on lemon drops, lemon in my water, tums, and sprite (all things I read might help). If anyone has any tried-and-true relief I…

Getting pregnant tips?
I have lost the "at least" 15 pounds I wanted to lose before we started trying and now I am in full-fledged get-prego-now mode. I have googled tips on conceiving tricks of the trade but was wondering if anyone on here had actually been given advice from a professional? We just started trying so I am far from needing to…

Pregnant???
Possible TMI guys. Ladies- I stopped birth control last month. I was supposed to start my period last Tuesday. I have been on bc for 15 years. Cycle is like clockwork. I have stopped bc in the past for a few months and my cycle continued to be like clockwork- every 28 days. I am now 6 days late. I took two prego tests. One…

Anyone working from home?
Hi everyone. I was wondering if there are any MFPs out there that work from home and make good money at it (in any sort of profession). I am currently a licenced health professional but am interested in being a SAHM whenever my hubby and I conceive (soon we hope). I have zero knowledge of "at home" positions. I have…

Q about squats
I do squats while holding an 8 lb medicine ball. My knees hurt during and the next day. Do you think my form could be wrong? Or do I possibly just have bad/weak knees? Or are your knees supposed to be sore? I have not hurt myself yet and it's not bad enough to not do the squats anymore. Disclaimer- I am not looking for…

Probably way too soon but...
My husband and I just decided to try and make a baby. We only recently stopped b/c and have plotted when I am SUPPOSED to ovulate (I know it can take time for that to normalize after stopping the pill). The thing is- I have been super fatigued and strangely starving the last few weeks. IF I were in fact prego would these…

Bye bye little pill
So....we did it! We have made the decision to try and get prego!!!! Just had to share my excitement, as we are not telling anyone we know until there is an actual bun in the oven. :smooched:

Holistic approach?
Hi guys. I am kind of nervous to post, as I see members get attacked often on here but I am going to take the risk! I recently went to see a specialist because my exercise tolerance has declined dramatically. I have had joint/muscle pain/weakness for about the past 8 months and when the fatigue hit I decided to go get my…

My sides hurt
When I run I get a pain in one or both of my sides within 2 minutes and I have to walk. This has been the case for as long as I can remember. So needless to say- I do not run. But i want to. I have asked my doctors and they say it is common. Advice I have been given is to increase potassium. Then someone told me to…

New me=new career?
So I think I have reached an early mid-life crisis (I am 30 y/o) or I am just really bored. I am thinking about changing professions. Since becomming a healthier version of me I have become interested in becomming a personal trainer. Also, some of my mini goals were treating myself to facials and whatnot. I admire the work…

It fits!
I am getting married 9-10-11. I ordered my dress in a size 8. When it arrived it was too big so I had it altered to about a 4-6. It was then a bit small at the fitting. But it now fits! Yay MFP!!

Started losing again but don't want to
Hi all. I started MFP in July 2010. I was 147 lbs and wanted to be about 135-140. I am 5'7". Female. I hit my goal, and then some, by October. In trying to figure out just what MY maintenance calories were I got down to 129. Didn't like that. So I upped 'em and got up to 133. I go back and forth between 133-135 depending…

Laser hair removal
I reached my goal a while back and am now bikini ready. Well, kind of. Anyone out there ever had laser hair removal? I shave everyday and absolutely hate it!

No idea what happened
The muscle on the back part of my leg feels pulled. The back of my thigh. It has been this way for a couple of months now. I thought maybe I had pulled it somehow, even though I cannot remember such an incident, but it just won't go away. It is not excruciating. It hurts mainly when I stress it. Like when I walk upstairs…
