At 8 months old, Monkey Boy finally erupted a tooth last Thursday
morning.  Because he was very fussy and uncomfortable trying to eat
anything, I dosed him with acetaminophen (Tylenol infant liquid, red
flavor) several times on Thursday and again on Friday.

I am 14w pg and for the last week or two I have been having frequent
palpitations and feelings of breathlessness whenever I lay on my back and
sometimes when I am sitting in certain positions.  It happens sevearl times
a day and is relieved if I change positions, but it's really ...

I have been looking up published statistics from 2002 (the most recent
available), and have found out a few interesting things about the hospital I
am likely to deliver at.  Other people interested in NSW maternity hospital
stats can find them at

Larry mentioned he would be interested in reading other "day in the life
of", anyway this won't be entirely accurate, but not far off as it was quite
an eventful day. 14th June was his due date, we were told by many people
that things would change or get better, well they were ...

So after using AOL for about 5 or so years now, I have FINALLY figured out why
I never get the birth stories.
I've always been so frustrated- I've set the parameters up as high as they can
go and still don't get the really long posts- I found out completely by

Its been a while since Ive been here.  I left these forums a year ago.  Im
Sara, 22, live in Canada. My husband is in the Air Force and we have a
beautiful one year old son. We are starting to TTC for # 2 starting this

I have a white chili recipe that calls for 1 pound of dried white
beans. I want to use canned, but canned beans will have significant
water weight in them, and 1 pound of canned beans will be too little.
Does anyone know what weight of canned beans I should use, or is there

DH went back to work this morning...  All went well at first.  We all woke
up around 6 AM, I fed Catherine and then DH rocked her to sleep while I took
my shower.  I went back to bed and he brought her to me, then left around 8
AM.  Catherine and I woke up around 12, and I fed ...

I had my appointment to discuss my test results with my OB last week. I
tested positive and high for one of the antiphosolipids which is causing
clotting issues which is causing my miscarriages. Unfortunately, it is very
unlikely that I will maintain a pregnancy without intervention ...

I'm REALLY early in pregnancy (5 weeks today) but was wondering how
early I need to start thinking of potential hospitals.
I have been doing some research and it seems that North Fulton Regional
Hospital in Atlanta is one of the best; what are other people's

Just had my 25-week prenatal checkup with the OB (who's been voted as
best OB/GYN in town for I dunno how long). This is a practice of 5
doctors, and I've seen 4 so far. I like the doctors, the nurses, and the
staff, who've been always friendly and helpful. I feel I'm in good hands

ok, so often people don't announce pregnancies til they have passed 12
weeks, so why on earth did a friend last night announce that she would have
been 12 weeks pregnant, but they lost the baby, I thought the whole reason
not to tell was in case you lost the baby. Another friend ...

As a proud Mama, I always like to share my little Sina's development
with all of you. She has become such a little person :)
Well time passes quickly ... our angel is 4 months old  :)  She is quite
the personality too & we always have our hands full :))

Recently a couple of you - (Vicky & Mona I think?) - mentioned how your
babies had got unusual first teeth, the 'fangs' for example!
Well, Ana appears to be getting a molar! This seems really strange to me as
she's only five & a half months, but she's chewing insanely on anything ...
