We have 4 months old boy. My wife did breast-feed him only 6 weeks
because she couldn'd produce enough milk for our boy. She has had two
periods after delivery and now her period is more than a week late. We
are now wondering is it possible she could be pregnant again so soon

My Doctor said it was not ok to have sex during the 1st trimester...I
was too embarassed to ask about masterbation. Anyone know anything
about it during pregnancy?

I am just wondering if it is rude to request that people not show up to
visit in the first week after the baby is born, the first week you are home?
I have heard soo many people say they just wanted to get to know their baby,
adjust to breastfeeding, recover from being sore, etc. I ...

Help! I mentioned before that at around 5-8 weeks I was waking up short of
breath gasping for air. I suppose my expanding middle is putting pressure on
my diaphragm? The problem went away for a while- it was causing me not to
sleep very well. I was actually getting panic attacks, ...

I have a question about pregnancy coverage. I lost medical insurance
coverage due to some reason back in June this year, but at the end of last
month, I found out that I was pregnant for about three weeks. The new
insurance started from Dec 1st, but I don't know if pregnancy is ...

Thanks for responding;-) thats so nice of everyone!
Sandy,
Wow we are very close, my due date is June 5! Are you going to find out
what is is soon? Do you want to know? We can not wait to find out!

My BP is normally 120/60 I think but am not sure. I know the top number is
120. Last visit it was 90/60. I don
t ever remember it being 90 on top- what does this mean and what can cause
it to go down that much???

Halfway there!  How's everyone doing?  Making the switch into "wow, I
really look pregnant now" or have you been there for a while?  Kicks and
tumbles?  Dealing with the glucose test, a possible amnio, results from
the triple screen, ultrasounds?  Happy with your birth plans, your ...

The last visit the dr told me there were some ketones in my urine, but
didn't tell me what this means. I have been struggling to eat due to morning
sickness and have not started my weight gain yet. I read up on it and am
still not clear exactly what this means. (ketones)....I can ...

pain which was hard to relieve,  then 2 1/2 weeks later i came on, i just
thought i would see if anyone had this kind of pain, seems ...

Hello all...
Well, yesterday (Sunday) I went to the doctor convinced that I had the
onset of pre-eclampsia.  I had severe pre-eclampsia with my first, and
I am very scared that I am going to get it again.  (I am aware that

I figured I'd ask you guys for name ideas!  I am drawing a blank on names
this time around :-\  We are not finding out the sex this time so I need
ideas for both a boy and a girl. I like the name Dade for a boy but it does
not seem to be a 'real' name.

I just wondered by chance if there was anyone from around the Avon area
here?

My epidural experience was fine.  I am so glad I had one, and
definitely want one again.  I felt the pressure of the contractions,
and felt the urge to push.  It took away the pain, but I felt the
pressure/senstations of contractions.  I was able to move my legs,
