  • Not that I'm for it, but while we are contemplating it here...if you haven't already read it you might want to check out what writer Johnathan Swift proposed a few hundred years ago. I had to read this for a class in college way back when...if you …
  • Wondering the same thing @Val... bump
  • I wouldn't. My docs have always said nothing vaginally for 6weeks. Never had the kahoonas to ask if it was ok to use a vibe on just the bean. I was tempted this last time around, but then thot better not...didn't think it was a good idea to have an…
  • I ditto what @lucyloo288 & @proudmommy8789 said as well.
  • It depends on the coverage of both insurances...deductibles and copays. Did you not fulfill your deductible(s) from your prenatal care appointments?
  • Oh yeah! Great suggestion @new_baby_in_Oct! :) I second the suggestion to go to the chiropractor. If you don't have one already ask your family and friends if they know of a good chiro. IMO finding a good chiro is as hard as finding a good hair s…
  • I have a funny about stretchmarks. My sis is a yoga instructor with a 14yo son. My sis's boyfriend is a childless metrosexual. A couple months ago he asked my sister if she got her stretch marks from stretching. Still cracks me up that he thought…
  • I think it's an old wives tale too. Probably because after having a baby ones hair falls out like a shedding dog...due to hormonal changes. I don't think refraining from shampooing will prevent it from happening. I'd b like, "Mom I had a bab…
  • I never heard of that either. I think you should take him to the er too. Maybe it's a skin infection or allergic reaction...
  • I had terrible pain that was similar in the last few months my 2nd pregnancy. Could barely get out of bed to pee at night it hurt so bad to move. Sharp shooting pains in my back, hips and legs...I would have done anything for a wheelchair! My doc s…
  • @abbys_mommy I already had mine on Feb. 23rd. He was a month early tho. How bout you...have you had yours or are you still waiting for baby?
  • @angierich @abbys_mommy @littlefae Wow I'm suprised we have so many MN Preglies! I'm from Alexandria, but currently living near St.Paul on the WI side of the "Minnesconsin" border. We have a cabin 'up north' by Battle Lake, MN if u all k…
  • @mommyofchristmasbaby The nurse told me make sure the water is not over 100 degrees. I just checked a few websites...Babycenter and others. They said same thing not over 100 degrees. @bentleysmommy
  • Please ladies NO HOT SHOWERS, BATHS OR HOT TUB JACUZZI'S while prego!!! I am pretty sure that raises your internal body temp too high and can cook your unborn baby just like heating up that chipped beef in bag. When I got prego with my first, the…
  • I have poopy problems not pregnant and pregnancy definitely exacerbates the issue. Eating at least one yogurt a day really helps me. I also drink a big glass of metimucil in the morning and at night when prego (or if i poison my body with dollar b…
  • Yes I experience that after having babies too. I feel like a breathearian...which is kind of like a step beyond being a vegatarian except you just breathe lol. When I brought up my concerns about quality milk production docs told me to make sure i…
  • @kara_lamek Aspergers syndrome is a mild form of autism. From what i understand kids with severe autism are usually are non-verbal or have a very limited vocabulary. Kids with Aspergers have the classic traits of autism but r much more verbal (&am…
  • My 8 year old daughter, Ana, has aspergers too. She is in both Gifted&Talented and SpecialEd(EBD) classes at school. I do know that alotta more boys have Autistism Spectrum Disorders than girls. This year my daughter is the only girl in her …
  • Lucky ladies! I gained over 100 lbs. Started at 125lbs prepreg...weighed 230lbs when i went in for c-section on 2-23-11. I've lost 80lbs so far. It freaks the docs out everytime that i gain so much. This is my 5th pregnancy (to make it fullterm-ish-…
  • It really works. Substances that increase milk production are called galactagogues... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactagogue
  • @Aydonsmommy - Did you have a c-section too? I noticed you wrote, "Between the tummy nose and ear pain."
  • Have you tried fenugreek? Beer works too but you wouldn't want to risk having alcohol which is a depressent on the nervous system in your milk esp. with your little man being born premature and all.
  • My sinuses were killing me after I had my son. I called L&D they said benadryl was safe to take while bf. L&D also said it might make baby a little sleepier though. However, they didn't mention any affects on milk supply. I have had milk su…
  • @kritten_octoberbby The doctors did say this is something that babies usually grow out of by the age of 2 as their bodies grow bigger. So as much as i want to enjoy it while he's little...i can't wait for him to grow up (& gain weight) It's just…
  • Thank you @zexy4da011 I'm thinking you meant praying not posting :) Thank you for the well wishes @Jamie77 @betty Thank you for praying for my little man. He is 2 months old. He was born about a month early by c-section due to toxemia/preclampsi…
  • kritten_octoberbby From what i understand of larygomalacia weight gain would make it a mild case instead of our current moderate, but if he needs a feeding tube or surgery then it would be severe case.
  • @Jaime77 So far they have him on an monitor that alarms if he stops breathing or if his heartrate gets too low or too high, acid reflux med, nebulizer twice a day, and making his formula so it has 24 calories per oz instead of 20cal./oz. I am bf too…
  • For me a changing table or changing pad on a dresser is a must have. It is easier to change diapers, easier on your back, and so much more sanitary than changing diapers on a couch or carpet, especially when your baby has a major diaper blow-out!
  • I have 5 kids. My 1st had the worst cradle cap ever and i tried everything to no avail. After telling a family member who is a beautician about my daughter's severe 'cradle crap' problem she gave me a bottle of Paul Mitchell Baby Don't Cry shampoo a…
