I remember last time being able to find thong maxi-pads in the stores. Now
all I can find are mini-pads and panti-liners for thong panties. Is it just
this area (where the stores are smaller due to the HIGH cost of real estate)
or have they stopped selling them at all. I love ...

My favorite black underwire bra does not fit anymore.. it keeps riding up..
not verry comfortable. *sigh*  Not that it really fit to begin with I am
supposed to wear a 44 F and it was only a 44DD I am thinking I need to get a
good bra that FITS but where would I go to get ...

Going on from the conception intuition I was wondering about intuition of
the baby's sex. I thought that, although we can't get a significant sample,
it would be interesting to do some statistics on it. And I think the data
would probably be more reliable than the conception ...

OK, I seem to have waited out the blizzard (although the roads are still
somewhat treacherous, at least there aren't too many idiots on them, and
the visibility is fine now that the snow has tapered to light blowing
powder instead of full-on heavy 2 inches an hour stuff). I am ...

Rachel is playing in the floor in my line of vision. She is climbing and
trying to stand and can be known to fall. I guess she got sleepy, but when
it got quiet and I looked out there, she was lying flat on her back with her
arms and legs spread wide open, and her eyes closed not ...

Dear everyone,
Thank you so much for all of your replies and useful information, I will
look into it more closely as I feel more confident about it. Though my GP
didn't think it was a good idea this being my first delivery....

I am sorry to say I have done a pathetic job with this. Between DS#2 and
trying to do at least a little housework (which consists of keeping up with
dishes, laundry, and a tiny bit of cooking), trying to exercise regularly to
lose some weight (of which I have been doing a pretty ...

We had our baby boy on 19th January at 10.38pm, weighing in at 7lb 3oz and
measuring 52.5 cms in length. He was a little over two weeks early.
My waters broke at 6pm and we arrived at the hospital at 6.30pm. I have
speedy labours and this was my sixth baby, so speed was of the ...

so, we just had our 18-week-only-4-weeks-late-so-really-22-week u/s. I
*know* I'm probably being paranoid here, but I feel strange about how
it went, and dh is such a huge optimist he just rolls his eyes when I
fret. Can anyone read my story and just reassure me (or something!)?

I am including two stories here to give you an idea of what I was getting
at when I asked for a conception intuition.
I am looking, primarily, to hear from folks -- both expectant mothers and
expectant fathers -- who have had an intuition of conception before a

I might be being a bit thick here but I have a book on what the month needs
to go into hospital with but what do you need to take in for the baby. I am
nearly 22 weeks 5 days pregnant and am just interested. And I am new to all
this people can tell a first time mum I bet lol. I also ...

This may be old news but I have *never* seen them there.  [maybe
because I go like twice a year] They were in a really generic white
and pink box that said "Pregnancy Tests" and there were TWO in there!
There were TONS of them.

It's been about 2 months since I've been on here, we've had our hands full
with lil Matthew.  He's growing quite well, no issues so far, atleast not
until this one :)
He's almost 2.5  months old and we're trying to get him on the bottle -
