Okay, a little OT for this group, but many
of you have preschoolers too.  Lately, DS1
has asked for something to eat after he's
already in bed.  It seems to be partly bedtime

Here's a law Congress will pass sometime this week.
The Childfree Environment Act requires most public places to be
childfree. Children are now banned in the following types of premises:
* restaurants, cafes, cafeterias, dining areas and other eating places

I'm almost 41 weeks and still have not had my baby! I've had my
membranes stripped (OUCH!) and have been very active, but she just
seems to want to stay in there. So, the doctor said if I don't have her
this weekend, we'll induce on Monday. I REALLY hope I get into labor

Hi again,
I'm considering getting a Mirena IUD put in
once I can (OB says wait until 4 months pp).
I read the material she gave me on it, and I was

Last night, my wife and I both had dreams that we saw our unborn child
and that he/she had bugged out or bulging eyeballs.  With my wife, the
baby's eyes were too far to the side of his/her head.  In my dream, the
eyes were just big and bugged out.  I wasn't alarmed in my dream. I

I just had my initial OB.  I was very anxious for this because, as I
have mentioned in earlier posts, I have only a vague idea about my due

Anyway, the OB got good heart tones on the baby (thank goodness), did

I know I am being a pain in the butt and asking loads of questions recently
but can I please ask one more. How much swelling is normal at 27wks and a

fingers are swelled so much now that I can not get my ...

My computer's been in the shop, but now I have it back,
so I can catch up...
Things are going well here.  DS2 continues to be very mellow
and a good sleeper, though we can always hope for better.

Need some advice, since yesterday I have been getting defenate contractions
that are a little painful and stop me in my track for a second or two. They
are not as painful as the real full on thing but are stronger than a braxton
hick. I have felt baby move about but not as much ...

I'm 30 weeks along and am still very nauseous all the time, very tired, not
sleeping well, lots of fluid, aches, pains etc etc
So when I'm complaining to DH I feel like I must be having a worse than
average pregnancy (although of course there is no such thing as "average")

Hi group, I was told to come here and see if i could get some
information.....my daughter-inlaw has had 3 misscarriages but when she was
arounf 18 or 19....from a first husband......she was told she would never
get pregrant again and if a mircle happened she wouldn't carry it.... ...

I am going on maternity leave and my understanding is that by law I get
4 weeks before my due data, 6 (natural) to 8(cesarean) weeks after my
due date and then another 12 weeks(baby bonding). My question is what
happens if my baby is born 2 weeks after the due date -- does this cut
