I am very worried as my baby has slowed down her movements aswell, I still

This was in the local newspaper about an adoption gone wrong.  It is
disgusting to say the least:

Hello there Todd...
I am sorry that I have been absent.  My illness is making my life
difficult.  I am doing better, but as you all know, Post Natal
Depression sucks.

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone else can give me a bit of information regarding the
swelling (haematoma?) after ventouse and how long it normally should

I wanted to thank everyone for their helpful advice and information
regarding gestational diabetes.  Its been difficult to keep a solid head
about myself with all the HYSTERIA over blood sugars which if I were not
pregnant, would be considered ENTIRELY NORMAL.

I'm not really asking for advice on this one, just wanted to get this
off my chest.  I am 37 weeks 3 days and because of hospital policy, do
not know the sex of my unborn child.  This is my second pregnancy and
I have a wonderful 3 year old little boy who it the light of my life.

What part of your cycle are you in? Or what stage in planning for the
adoption are you in?
What are you feeling about this cycle/month?
What would you change with your magic wand about ttc or adopting?

I just found a little bug on my skin--doesn't look like pictures of ticks or
bedbugs that I've seen, but I did get a bite the other day and I'm wondering
if this guy is responsible. It's a little round black thing with smaller
legs than you might expect of a tick or bedbug. Maybe ...

Woke up this morning feeling nauseous.  Also a headache
since last night.  I'm nearly 15w, so I don't think this
is m/s anymore, but I hope it gets better soon, because
we have wonderful plans for this weekend...

Midwife took these about a month ago, at 36 weeks. None of the stretch marks
are from *this* pregnancy, oddly enough.

EDD 15/11/2005
I'm still in the stage of not being quite able to believe it.  I was
convinced the first two months of this year that I was pregnant and I
wasn't.  I was convinced this month that I wasn't pregnant because I'd been

is killing me. It's all day everyday, and gets in the way of me doing the
things I really want to do. Vomiting and nausea, making me depressed ad
teary. Any remedies that may help this pregnancy sickness?
Many thanks,

After being almost a week late my period came on Sunday.  I guess the
stomach upset was due to my antibiotics and not pregnancy.  Now things
will be a little more tricky if I am going to have irregular cycles
because we didn't have sex at all during the week when I actually did

Over the weekend, approximately a week after I think I ovulated (I'm
not charting this month, to take a little pressure off), I had an
episode of very light spotting.  I have never spotted at this point in
my cycle before.  However, I don't really want to get my hopes up until
