Hiya
I have been gone for amonth or so but now I am back.
The reason I disappeared is that the MW discovered I have diabetes and
it has been a very tough time for me.

the wife and I are expecting our first daughter in 10 weeks time. I'm
looking to find the best pram / travel system, does any one have any
recommendations?
Mamas & Papas, Bugaboo?

Hope it's a lovely day for you both :)

I'm just wondering if there's a difference in the two or if they're the same
thing. And if not, then what's the difference(s)? And are exams painful? Pap

throwing into doubt the ability of midwives and the NHS hospital

I"m just curious as to wether or not anyone in here has ever changed their
OB closer to the end of their pregnancy?? Mainly cause it seems the further
along I get the more mistakes mine keeps makeing and I really don't feel
comfortable there any longer. It's getting to the point to ...

For the past few weeks I have been having terrible backpain. My
midwife said its because the back of my baby's head is rubbing up
against the whole tailbone area (or something among those lines) my
baby is also posterior.

I had my 6 week checkup yesterday. No problems at all, yay! Everything
looked back to normal, my weight is great. I lost all 31 lbs already. That
is SO awesome :) Im so happy about that. Of course I'll gain a lot back with
the holidays upon us I'm sure!

She has brown hair, blue eyes, and the shriek of a pterodactyl, when she
gets hungry!  I'll get around to posting some sort of birth ...

My latest thing to buy is a baby chair of somekind. The main 2 types
seem to be rockers or bouncers so I was hoping for some advice from
people who have used them. The bouncers seem much cheaper and less
substantial. I have a car seat which can rock  or be stationary so is
