Hi - I had a filling for one tooth and the filling came off. My
dentist recommends crowning. And says its okay to do in first
trimester(I am about 7 weeks).
My obgyn also said that its okay but I am feeling very confused.

Okay, roll call time.  All you gorgeously pregnant nine-monthers, are
you ready to strangle someone yet, or are you still enjoying the last
few moments of your in-utero baby?  You're almost there!!  How's the
last month treating you all?  Everything ready for the birth, bags

Well, at 4am I decided to give sleep another go.  Got into bed without
waking DH.  2 minutes after that my stomach started hurting so badly
that I thought I was going to throw up (it seems that lying down is a
no-no right now).  I got back up again and started leaving the room ...

Hi again! Thanks for all those who answered my questions earlier today - I
learned A LOT of useful stuff!!! One more question, probably the most
important one... I don't have a health insurance and I my hubby and I are
not married yet officially (sorry, I call him hubby as that's ...

I'm at around 17 weeks now. When I go to bed at night when I lie down
still for sometime I feel my lower abdomen harden and tighten. It's
not painful. It just feels tight. Is this Braxton Hicks? How soon do
we feel BH contractions? I don't know how BH feels like. The last time

Hi, everyone!
I'm still here.  Trying to get the hang of being breastfeeding and being a
good mother.  I have a few questions:
~What can I do about the hiccups that Morgan gets at least 6 times a day?

This is a bit OT, but has anyone else had to endure unwanted input from
their beloved other half?
Last pregnancy I was called a manatee. This time it's a dugong, which I
pointed out is the same thing as a manatee.

My wife is in her seventh week and we just had an ultra-scan. The
fetal heart rate was 107, which is not normal as I understand that it
should be close to 150. The doctor says this is not a matter of
concern as she has seen cases where the rate was as low as 60 and

Charlotte came home from school Wednesday afternoon looking like she'd been
slapped in the face. I had no idea what it was till the school nurse called
Thursday morning and said she was the 3rd student from her class to go to
the nurse that morning and it's Fifth Disease.  It's ...

I can only find my other post through Google, and I don't think you use
google, so here it goes again.
Darn your winning streak!  What the heck am I gonna do with 4 girls??

Can I b*tch??  it's 4am here on my side of the world.....
Since I am in the last trimester I fully expect a restless sleep.  The
little bud has taken to night wakings which I can sleep through until the
constant barrage of bladder pokes (or sore hips)cause a full waking.  Once

Sorry this is a bit OT.
My grandfather passed away on this day a year ago....I'd never have thought
a year later I'd be pregnant. I feel sad because he died 6 months after our
wedding, he loved my husband, and he would have been so happy to meet my

How are you feeling this month, three-monthers?  You're almost out of
the first trimester
(depending on how you count) -- still feeling sick and tired, or are you
starting to pick up?  Do you look pregnant?  Heard the heartbeat yet, or

Hi all!!! Since I discovered yesterday that I am pregnant, my heartbeat
still can't get to normal... Strange cocktail of excitement, concern, relief
and fear... I realized I know as much about pregnancy as about rocket
science so I thought I should make it to the bookstore today and ...

Happy 27th Birthday, Shena (Delian O'Brien)!
I hope you have a wonderful day!  :-)
