I called the hospital where my hair strand drug test is/was being performed
and the woman who is/was doing the tests said that my hair tests negative

Hi! Wow!  What an active group! I Love it! I'm not a Mommy...yet, only
TTC. I have looked everywhere...is there a discussion group anywhere for

Doctor says I am ready to go anytime now. He will induce me if I want to on
Friday but he is positive I will go into labor before then. I am pretty

My cousin (currently 6 months pregnant) has just been sent to the hospital
with a suspected blood clot in her leg. She just rang me and she's worried
sick that they're going to keep her in (she has two other children to look

Hello, I have just had a midwife visit and hse says my baby's head feels
really low and has written 3/5 in the column in my notes headed "desc". Does
this mean descent? And does that mean the baby is beginning to engage?
I am confused because this is my second pregnancy and I was ...

I guess my high BP reading was a fluke or something, because today it was
120/60. Im SO relieved. I think maybe if it wasn't a fluke, the lower
reading has to do with the fact that I have spent every minute laying down

I am 28 weeks along and I get frequent Braxton Hicks.  I had them with my

other than all the water I am drinking already that will calm the uterus
down?  I get a few per hour and several per day.  The baby is ...

I am 22 weeks and was wondering how long i can keep having sex before it
is bad for the baby. i cannot ask my doctor about this.

I had a few mild cx around 11 but still fell asleep. A contraction woke
me around 1:30am and I've been up ever since.
These  feel like the real deal. They are erratic-coming at 4-10 minutes
apart lasting 45-60 seconds or so. The farther apart the stronger they

This is more for reassurance than an actual question, maybe wishful thinking
but...
The past few days I've been sick. Really nauseated, having really soft
stools (I've been constipated almost this whole pregnancy up until the last
