fine otherwise. the nurse says to put in 1 or 2 drops of ...

Good news first: I got my period this weekend, in spite of taking 2x 100mg
prometrium (progesterone) as a vaginal suppository. So I guess my body
knows what it's at, in spite of the additional hormones.
Bad news: I'm not preggers this round, but I knew that. Weird enough, I

My wife has one week to go and has just been told she may have Bell Palsy.
Has anyone else experienced this while pregnant? My father had it several
years ago. Is it common place while pregnant and can anyone offer any advice
on treatment / cause, it is making her feel really low.

All around, I had a good visit yesterday.
My blood pressure continues to be low -- 104/54.  I gained 3 1/2
pounds over the last 3 weeks, which brings my weight gain to a grand
total of 33 pounds.  I am not happy about that, but I have noticed a

I found out what is causing the pain I am having.. it is a pulled Ligament.
The OB I saw today did an internal and pressed on it to make sure she was
the right thing..  Anyway it is not hurting so much today but it hurt when
she pushed on it.. lol as a comparason she pushed on the ...

First the good news-the baby is growing as expected, heartbeat is strong,
and the average BP readings and protein levels etc don't show any early
signs of PE. The bad news is that some of my headaches are demonstrating
neurological symptoms which are sometimes seen in severe PE. ...

How do you conceive if you are breastfeeding and are not having a period?
I know you can breastfeed and be pregnant at the same time, but when do you
ovulate?  Can you ovulate without a period?
Is there any good time to try to have your second child?  I'm 5 months PP.

I am having a shower for my friend at a very nice restaurant that will
include a sit-down luncheon. It's a bit of an older crowd, so we
aren't really planning any games or anything.
For my favors, I have bought little plastic cube shaped boxes and I'm

Hi gals,
This is Sherry ("Vogelsher") from, gosh, 3 years ago?  It took FOREVER for us
to get preggers, but I just loved the board and now we're trying for #2, so
here I am, ready to get back into ttc/baby discussions! LOL  I can't believe

Well, I went to see my regular doc today because the pain sometimes
makes me want to lose my mind on purpose.  ;-)  Actually, it was during
a really baaaaaad day that I even made the appointment.  Normally, I
probably would have put it off.  Anyway, he said that they normally ...

I have been married for 8 months. We had intercourse from first day
after marriage itself. For first 5 months we used condoms so that we
didn't want to concieve. But for the past 3 months we do with out any
protectives. We are thinking to concieve. As we know the chances to

Ok, DH wants to plan a small vacation with his 2 daughters,,,7 and
14,,,,,
he wants to take them to a huge ( FUN ) water park in Erie, then to
Canada....to see the falls,

Not sure what to do.  My 6 week post-partum check-up involves a pap but I'm
still "bleeding".  I'm really not sure what to call what is going on.  I'm
thinking of calling and canceling the appointment cos I don't think a pap is
accurate if you're still "bleeding".  Is that right?  I ...

Let me start by saying that this is a great newsgroup.  
Now, my question.  I'm 16 weeks pregnant.  I spend all night drinking
and peeing.  I probably get up to go to the bathroom about 6-8 times a
night.  Consequently I'm exhusted all day long.  I know that frequent
