has anyone seen sophie around I know she has been able to predict some
of our babies and was wondering if she could give it a shot this time
around for me.  I just hit 14 weeks.  I go next week for my Quad Screen
and to hear the babys heartbeat.

I have a strange problem with baby Catherine: she breastfeeds too fast!
I put her on one breast, she latches on like a real pro, and then... she
suckles so fast that after 15-20 minutes my breast feels "empty" and baby
Catherine...  drops dead!  There is no way I can wake her ...

For kids 13 and under also for advice for KIDS.A chat place that there
is no swearing or nasty words.Please apply that there are kids at this
station!

I am trying to get pregnant, can someone tell me if these could be
signs?   My period is usually 28-30 days, and I always get those PMS
like 2 weeks before my new period, including very very sore breast. But
this month, I didn't get those pms, and today, that is my 27 day, i

Can't remotely think of where else to ask this ...
I've always had really strong nails and suddenly they are weak and
splitting.  Both thumbnails have splits in them and they catch on everything
and are driving me insane ( not to mention stinging a bit).  I never do much

I'm trying to determine the day that I conceived this time around.  Is
there really an exact way to tell this, I'm curious.

OK guys,
I had 8 hours of interviews with a company before I got pregnant and
then they jerked me around and didn't offer me a job.  (I am not
working right now).  They contacted me today and want me to go for an

Ok, now that I've got the Robeez, I know why everyone loves them so
much.  My only question is, is it bad for her to keep them on almost
constantly?  I ask because not only do they stay on her feet, they also
keep her *socks* on her feet. ;-)  It's cold here, and unless she's in

Hi, everyone -- I'm posting this here since the breastfeeding board doesn't
seem to be very active...  I've got 2 more questions about breastfeeding.
Yesterday morning I woke up and my right breast was really really swollen,
hard and painful.  At first I thought I was engorged, but ...

Last night, while I was making dinner, I had a spectacular accident
with a jar of tomato sauce. I was straining to open it, using a jar
opener tool, and it went flying out of my hands and crashed onto the
floor.

I have some quite bad hip pain on the side I sleep on now.  Not all the
time, but sometimes when I wake up, where the joint is (not the crest)
it feels like I've been laying on concrete rather than the lovely bed
I've been sleeping on for the last 5 years with no problems.  Being ...

Anyone have any thoughts?  She's gotten a whole string of negative HPTs.
 (She charts in Fertility Friend, which gave her a clearly erroneous
coverline; I've transcribed into TCOYF to fix that.)

I will be offline for up to 3 weeks.  We wont have a phone right away in our
new apartment so that means no internet and that means no newsgroups *sob*
As soon as we get the 50$ to connect the phone we will get internet and then
newsgroups!  Yay!

I'm afraid she's piggy-backed onto Carlos' site due to a lack of time (and
technical incompetence):

If you scroll down to the bottom, there are three recent photos of her.

My close family does not have much respect to hygiene...  asking my
parents to wash hands before holding their grand daughter is a battle.
My question is, is there any age where you can say that babies imune
system is strong enough so that people do not need to hash their hands
