I have a call in to my OB, but they often take hours to respond. I'm
hoping someone out here can help me.

ahead to have everything ready and to be able to have our first baby at
the perfect time in our lives.
I was wondering if anyone have any comments about Kaiser permanente

I just got done with my 37 week (though I still think I'm at least 38
weeks) appointment.
Last week, there were absolutely no signs of progress -- my cervix
wasn't even softening -- so I had been a little disappointed.  But

As it was suggested I went for another session with the Birth Afterthoughts
counsellor, the big advantage of this is that you get to see your notes. So
I was able to see for myself that the response letter was lieing rather than

<speaking in a low and conspiratory voice>...it's been 4 days since we
"lost" Addie's binky.  Shhhh.  So far, so good.  We recently got Addie

supposed to have your child face forward only when your child is AT

Looks like I am experiencing yet another scare.  Everything looked like it
was going so well until today and I went to the bathroom and found that I
was spotting.  I thought it had tapered off but I had another burst of it
about 1/2 hour ago.  So far no cramping or anything.  My ...

Have gotten in to see a Doctor, she showed no worry of my meds, did some
blood work, and urine tests the usual. I got an ultrasound baby looks
good, I'm about 14 to 16 wks. What worries me is that she wanted to check
me for pre-eclampsia(I beleive that's how it's spelled) and she ...

I just wanted to write and let everyone know what I learned abou
Maternity Card by Affordable Healthcare Options. Be very careful! Don'
sign up! We signed up for the card because be didn't think we had healt
insurance for our delivery. Turns out that if you have any healt

It's kind of weird to realize I've gotten that far.... seems like just
yesterday I saw the + sign.  It's a bit weird to think it's all really
happening.
I've been as can be lately at work. This kid is going to come out

After Katie was born in 2000, I gradually drifted out of this group,
thinking I'd only return to read posts once in a while, but wouldn't

Our 15 month kid just started at daycare. She is screaming when we
leave her and also off and on during the few hours she stays(we haves
tarted with few hours a day). We hear that this is the way(crying)
toddlers adjust to a new environment because of separation anxiety but
