WOO HOO Spud has arrived! He was five days late and not a Halloween

4, at 7:41 p.m., in a wonderfully progressive hospital, attended by a
midwife, two friends performing reiki, my DDDDH, my mother, and my

I was on the pill for over 6 years and stopped taking it 36 days ago.  I
haven't gotten a period yet and I'm starting to get uneasy about it.  I know
it takes a few months to become regular and you're supposed to use condoms
until then to prevent constant guessing (we're not ...

The results are IN!  Unfortunately the doctor is OUT!  Yup, it's true.
Emory faxed over the results late this afternoon so I won't hear anything
until tomorrow.
The good news is that I WILL hear something tomorrow.  I'm not feeling as

I am 9 months pregnant and I just lost some of my amalgam filling in my back
molar.  I feel a big hole there, yech.  I know that this can be a problem
with regard to the mercury exposed and can be bad for baby.  I dont know if
I swallowed that little bit of filling or not either.  I ...

I worked for a large telcom company in a *technical area*for over 3 and 1/2
years ( a desk job), and due to the slow economy, was laid off. Becuase my
company had a union contract, I was able to be moved into a lower paying

Ah crud. Everyone keeps telling em the morning sickness, or, what I call
"morning noon and night sickness" will go away. My dr says she was sick

morning sickness.
She has been vomiting randomly and has nausea throughout the day for the

I work for an architectural firm and often handle and occasionally
run blueprints. The process involves running light sensitive paper through
a vapor ammonia.

I had my "routine" 18 wk ultrasound today.  It was interesting to
compare to the last time around, since we went to a different place.
The first technician was much more chatty and friendly.  OTOH, the way
the machine was placed, I couldn't see anything unless they actually

See you there!

I have a few months to go but have been thinking about names I like and what
will go with them. We do not know the sex of our baby so I am looking at
both genders. I have tried those online name generators but haven't found
anything I like.

Hi everyone, this is a great group!
Tomorrow is my first visit to the Dr.
I'm kinda nervous, i'm not sure why...
What will she do on the first visit...?

I haven't posted here in a long time and only lurk occasionally.  I was glad to
see that something brought Sophie back!  Anyway I was wondering whatever
happened to Spectre?

Hi all I thought id let you know how I got on, after my latest mc.
As some of you know I have had five mc altogether my most recent 31st
October. My old doctor refused to do any tests on me saying that I was
getting pregnant so there wasn't anything else they could do. But after my

My doctor's office called me back about the Zofran- today I couldn't take
being sick any more, and even though I stay on Zofran, I don't vomit a lot
but am SO very nauseous.
The doctor told the nurse to tell me that Zofran is just to prevent vomiting
