rash creams. I've investigated all the top brands out there like
Desitin,etc. but my cousin from Ohio swears by something called
Pinxav. Has anyone ever heard of this product and if so can you tell

My 18 weeks scan showed I have an anterior placenta (at the front).  It is
well clear of my cervix.
What does this mean to my pregnancy?

Has anyone else heard that vaccuum cleaning is bad while pregnant?  What are
all the limitations, etc?
Is there anything else like that that is interesting or something to be
aware of?  You know folklore stuff...

I'm just wondering what foods/beverages I'm not supposed to eat/drink? My
doctor never told me and I don't want to eat or drink something that is
dangerous or unsafe.

I went for my 18 week scan yesterday - and we have a little scrotum and
penis!!!  I can't believe he's not even half way cooked and he has all the
bits in all the right places.  All the measurements were fine - they could
even measure the hemispheres of the brain!

When, when....WHEN will this be alleviated???
I have been able to eat a substantial amount more- since I started realizing
that I was probably keeping myself in a vicious cycle from morning sicnkess

~Received a new EDD of Mar 27 (though I am still shooting for April 4th)
~Is nearly 2lbs
~Has 1.89 inch feet!

Hope its a lovely day for both :)

Hey everyone
