In the light of recent events, I've been doing some reading on
progesterone deficiency and its relation to miscarriages. My findings so

Thanks all, for your unending support, it has helped me enormously!
I quickly glimpsed in here today to scan the new subjects, it's harder for
me to let go of you than I thought. I just wanted to let you know I am
doing pretty well, considering the circumstances. I fell into the ...

Do a lot of people here use these for baby to sleep in? I bought 2 in a set,
a newborn size and a small size.
To me these seem to be a good idea. Not a must-have, but a
very-good-to-have. I already know I don't plan to put the baby down with a

for another time before the final day.

I saw my midwife yesterday and am measuring according to dates, and baby's
h/b is good (after she found it, this one is real shy!).
I talked with her about my induction fears (planning induction at 38 weeks
due to previous stillbirth, see prev. thread under info. on inductions). She

It's been a while so I am a little rusty and I've googled but can't really

Hi Ladies,
I was at the OB office today because of my BP. It was fine today and I have
no protein in the urine. I am relieved. The funny thing was that when I went
yesterday, my OB was not in. However I had just to have my BP measured and

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about car seats - she
has two kids and I'm pregnant with my first. She told me that we might
have trouble with fitting a car seat in our cars - both my husband and
I drive small (not quite compact) 4 door cars, a Mazda Protege and a

One of my friends said that she is having trouble getting pregnant
(trying for 6-7 months) and the doc told her that part of the problem
could be that she recently gained a lot of weight.  I am worried about
her as she seems to think it is all her fault she is not getting

Oh my god, and that is all I can think of to say. I have mentioned in the
past that my niece is very poorly behaved and a lot of trouble (she is 6 and
in 1st grade). I have complained about my DH always wanting his out of town
relatives to stay in out home when they are here. This ...
