Hi, I'm new.
I'm TTC and have a Femta question. Anyone here use it? I've been using an
unregistered version, and when I entered the first day of my current
menstruation (which was one day shy of a 28-day cycle), it threw everything

Survived the move with almost everything still intact, including the
tattered remnants of our sanity.  And, after nearly two weeks of faffing
around while the ISP & phone company blamed each other for the delay,
we're _finally_ back on broadband.  Thanks to everyone who wished us ...

I passed the one hour glucose test last week, which was a huge relief.
Don't ask me why, but I had managed to get myself all worried about
gestational diabetes, so this is a big load off my shoulders.
But, at the same time, I found out I am anemic.  I've been feeling

Yesterday morning V woke up screaming his poor little head off and was
just inconsolable (which is unusual since we can usually find
*something* in our bag of tricks to calm him) and my Ped's office has
weekend hours so we made an appt and he has an ear infection caused by

Does anybody know if birth weights increase the more pregnancies you have.
I'm a tad worried my baby will be big.
My past babies weighed -
8.lb 12 oz

I  want to feel and look beautiful!   Don't you? Right now, we all know how
important it is to feel comfortable.  But we also don't want to give up our
sense of fashion.   Fortunately, Becoming Mommy
(http://www.BecomingMommy.com ), is where you can find today's leading

How much does/did your baby sleep at around 4-5 months old?
Rachel sleeps more than I thought she would, off and on about 10-12 hours a
night and some naps in the day. But is very active during the awake times...

Okay, I'll make this post and then I'll get my period or something. :)
Anyway, starting in June I resumed my cycle after almost 15 months without
AF.  I'm also still breastfeeding my 18 month old.
Here is what happened so far:

Someone called my boy a girl today.  It didn't bother me -  made me
laugh, actually, because I understand perfectly how hard it is to tell
(especially when you've got the kid almost naked because it's hot and
steamy out).  She felt really badly.

Is it OK to get a flu shot while pregnant?

This is probably a really stupid question but I'll ask anyway...
When you feel the baby's hiccups, exactly what part of the body is that
coming from, stomach or head? I've been feeling and seeing her hiccuping way
up near my ribs on my right side. I've also felt like there is ...

I gained about 5-7 lbs in the first trimester (the pregnancy started as
twins, but one did not make it), but now at 15 wks I have lost most of it.
I feel like I am eating all right, but I have had a lot of stress at work
which may be affecting me.  Is this something to worry about, ...

Well, I just noticed something new -- I should say I just put 2 and 2
together...it seems like many of the times that she starts to gag or get
that worried look on her face and spit out whatever she's been eating, is
when she took too big of a bite.  It seems she doesn't like ...

Who is it again that is a distributor of maya wrap here?  Could you email

My son completely blows away that rule of thumb that says to dress
babies in one extra layer than what you yourself would wear.  I'm used
to him wanting to be half naked during the day.  No problems there,
because at least I'm awake and can keep an eye on him.  The problem is
