I am not TTC but...........possibly........there may have been a, um, slip
up. My period is not here yet and it was due a week ago.. It has been
regular since 4 months postpartum when it came back. I used to be late and
even skip periods so this is not all that rare but lets just ...

After spending more than a year desperately wanting another child it
looks like I may finally get my wish.  My husband has known of my
desire but nothing was ever resolved because he didn't really want any
more children so I had decided a week ago to try and bring up the

Let me first say that Dr. Sears' Baby Book is one of many that I
bought before my baby was ever born -- along with a set of What to
Expect books: When you're expecting and the First Year...(yawn for
those two)  Anyway, while I have found that attached parenting is not

Still pregnant, that is.
Just had to get that off my chest, you may now return to your regularly
scheduled discussion.

I had my 36+ week appt. today.  After a rocky start (my CNM was running
late, I was willing to wait the 15 minutes for her to get there but another
CNM came in even though *my* CNM showed up right after.  grrr, but not a
huge grrr) I mellowed out.  Basically everything is fine ...

I'm a regular on the American Idol NG and one of the members has a
page with all of the 'regulars' on it.  
Even though I'm much more of a lurker than a poster here (sometimes) I
thought it may be a neat idea for MKP to do it too.  I'd be willing to

Hi girls,
I'm 8.5 weeks right now and I have a question that people may not want
to hear.  If you're conservative please stop reading now!
OK, here's the question.

First I have a comment, then a question:
Since he was about 3 or 4 months old, V. has been a pretty good little
napper but I always found myself getting antsy when he'd start to show
signs of getting sleepy either too early or too late in the day.  He

It has to be the baby coming but Eva has been so attached to me she doesn't
want me to leave her side.  I thought it was bad at the beginning of the
pregnancy and threw out it but it is getting worse.
I just don't know what to do.  I can't take it anymore.  I am so irritated

My honey and I have ttc for 16 months now and the doc has prescribed
clomid for me.....please help...should i be scared? Please tell me your
experience with this medication.

I have 2 girls already, nearly 8 and 4.5 yrs and I have always said I
will NEVER forget the pain of childbirth.  Abby was a true water birth
(3kg - normal) and with Fiona I was dragged out of the pool after the
head crowned (gyno had written on my notes she was 4kg (large) and ...

Hi Girls
This is my first posting to good ol' m.k.p for 8 years as I found out
last week I am expecting no. 3 in September.  Bit of a shock as 1 and 2
were planned (and took their time in conceiving - 6 mths and 8 mths) and

Gosh, is it really that long since I've had more than 4 hours of
uninterrupted sleep?!  DD2 is growing like a weed - she started out at 6 lb,
and was up to 11 lb 9 at 7 weeks, so I'm assuming she has now doubled her
birth weight.  Her thigh measurements are the same as her 2 year ...

We're coming up on Micah's 2 month checkup (!! I can't believe it... he's
huge and looks so different from when he was born... sob)  I know that
this is when the vaccinations typically begin, but I'd like to know some
of the pros and cons, both of vaccinations themselves and of ...

Jessica (two months) is sleeping through the night anywhere from 7-19 hours.
She goes down without a pacifier. Night time is great.
Daytime however, is extremely difficult. She wants to suck all day long and
will not sleep. For the past few days she gets about 3 hours of daytime
