Quick update
We saw the midwife on Saturday as planned and I mentioned the concerns and
the single crease.
She had a quick look and brushed it aside quite quickly - didn't make

Before I ask this, is there a newsgroup for newborn questions?  I couldn't
find one.  Our 6 week old is having a lot of problems pooping and it's
causing a great deal of pain.  Our pediatrician said it's gas and told us to
give him mylacon which we've been doing.  It helps with ...

I've never had much of a swelling issue even in my first pregnancy.
Last night I was watching TV when I realized that my right foot had
started to swell.  It even felt a bit tingly.   Today I notice my
ankles are more swollen than usual and again the right side seems more

I have got back from my 33 week check up with my midwife.
My blood pressure was great.
The measurements were all fine.
My polycose test results were fantastic.

I'd like to buy something similar to this, possibly with more built in bump

I just wanted to report that when it looked like Poppin Fresh's acne was not

I am at 30 weeks and for some time my belly button has been popped out so
far that it is terrible. It sticks out about two inches! It shows through
my clothes and just feels and looks weird. My family is always teasing me
and my daughter and hubby like to poke it. Is this a normal ...

Had a good day today... the midwife came down to visit with me. I got in the
tub for her to palpate my belly--I have very strong ab muscles from all the
coughing I did, and I don't relax easily lying on my back. She said that
checking baby's position with me in the water was MUCH ...

Howdy  Looking for naming advice for a boy. The happy couple was considering distinctive names that are still recognizable. They got their short list down to "Sebastian" and "Sylvester". I notice Sylvester is overall more common but has declined in popularity in recent years.

My sister had a successful FET transfer 14 weeks ago. She was released
from her RE and has had one appt. with an OB and despised the staff at
his office. She is searching for an OB who is into natural childbirth,
etc. I would say, any *good* OB would do at this point. She lives ...

If you can't laugh about sex, what can you laugh at? Especially when it
