My darling baby boy's first birthday is on July 11th. Almost a year old!
Already! People say it all the time but how quickly that precious first
year flies by. It seems like yesterday he was a helpless little bundle
who couldn't do much but sleep and eat. Then came the first smiles, ...

I had a miscarriage 9 days ago, and I stopped bleeding 2 days ago, I
was 8 weeks 5 days pregnant at the time of the miscarriage.  I did not
have a D&C.
I feel that I am ready to start having sex again, infact I have really

Waiting to hear from you. I hope all is well.

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I can't remember.  Are 2nd
labours usually quicker than the 1st? I had a 6 1/2 hour one first time
(from onset of first contractions which were 5 mins apart, to delivery).  It
seems to be a family thing - both my grandmother and mother ...

Hi, I have a 2001 VW Beetle and I just paid it off. :) But....a friend
of my husband's came over the other night and said that getting a car
seat to fit in my back seat would be difficult. :(
Anyone have any suggestions? I know eventually I may want to change to

Hehe I am dying already.. I think it is all in my head but I am HOT all the
time.  I am only 22 weeks how am I ever going to be livable when I am 30
weeks and it is August?  Also can someone please tell me where my nose spray
stuff is.  This child seems to like it when my nose is ...

Anyone else have this problem?
Before the pill, I was pretty regular, 30ish days per cycle kinda gal.
(Sometimes 28, sometimes 33, but fairly consistent).  Went on the
pill at age 22, and was on the pill for 9 years (minus a gap of about

I think my tummy bunny is going through a hiccup phase - I am 32 weeks
and I keep feeling rhythmic little pops that the Dr said are most likely
hiccups.  But the little guy is getting them a few times a day every day
- has anyone else experienced this?  It feels so weird!

This is possibly TMI for some...
I'm due in 6 weeks, and lately I'm having a fun little urine leakage
problem. If I'm standing up (not a problem when sitting) and I either
sneeze, cough, or laugh really hard, I pee a bit. I just can't stop it. I

I could just cry!  Apparently the only thing that may be wrong with my
Beautiful red Dodge Caravan may be a Head gasket!  I looked it up online and
was shocked to see the prices of like 1000$ to have it fixed but I found the
part I need on its own and it is only like 20-100 bucks so ...

I'll get right to it. My wife is 5 months pregnant with our 2nd child;
it's been 4 months since she has had any sex drive at all. Now I know
this is all hormones and it will return once she gives birth to the
child, but this is putting me through heck!!! I will not say that we

At what I think was 16 dpo (but may be up to 20 dpo, temps were a bit
weird) my beta was 978. I'll get another one tomorrow morning to make
sure it has doubled.
Although I've had tons of betas before, since I've never had a

To anyone that can help me. I am having a hard time getting pregnant. I am
26 and was pregnant at 24 but miscarried since then I have tried with no
luck. It would mean a lot to me to be able to have a child of my own and
to give my husband a child. If there is any advice that you ...

Well, Quinn will be 6 weeks this friday and for the past couple days
he's hit a growth spurt.  He's eating 2.5-4 ounces every 1.5-2.5 hours.
 He was up at 12 am, 2 am, 4 am, and 6:30 am this morning.  DH and I
are totally exhausted!!!  We alternate getting up for feedings but we ...

Warning... This may be a bit descriptive/gross.
Just a couple of days before I had experienced incomplete bowel
emptying. It was like, I would feel like going for #2 and when I
actually end up in toilet, I will pass very little. cosistency was
