Re: Oh no! Look what happened to my diaper!

SDB/nubunz had a bad batch of PUL and have discontinued certain colors until the PUL problem has been resolved.  Check the website for more info.  The company seems to be trying to fix the situation.

Re: February mamas - how are we doing?

I had my last progesterone shot on the 25th and I stopped taking nifedipine on the 29th. I am 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated.  I am hopeful I won't last too much longer.  [pray] I am tired on the GD diet and finger sticks.  Not to mention I have'nt gained much weight the last 11 weeks on the diet and the Dr. does'nt feel I need an us.  Today I am taking the dog for a good wa...

Re: Need suggestions

I think it is time to deliver!  Have you had a nonstress test?

Re: Been in hospital (again!) and having my baby!!!!

Best wishes and safe delivery.  I hope you recover quickly and your health returns asap!  I hope baby does well.  We have the same due date and I will be going off my preterm meds next Friday so we may deliver near the same day.  Most babies born after 34 weeks have mature lungs so don't worry too much.  Mine were all early and did well.

Re: Quick update - induction related.

So sorry to hear about your health.  I hope you can go to term or near term.  All my babies came early.  I had twins at 29 weeks 6 days.  It was an emergency c-section with one twin only weighing 1 pound 15 ounces the other at 3 pounds 10 ounces.  They were born at 11am and by 6pm the were beathing on their own without oxygen.  This supprised even the neonatologist.&n...

Re: Looking for a changinging station solution for downstairs

Thanks for your replies!   I am thinking of using a dresser upstairs as a changing table.  It's a little high for me but perfect for dh.  Downstairs I'm considering the counter in the laundry room.  I would not have to buy a changing table.  As I am starting over from scratch and will only be using this on one child.  I hope this dosen't make me sound cheap.[:)]

Re: Arms reach co-sleeper

 I had the full size with my 5th son and I loved it.  Regretably I sold it off years ago.  I just purchased a pink mini co-sleeper at a consignment yard sale for $25.  It was never used and still in the box.  I know it won't last as long but for the price I can't go wrong.

Re: Did any of you get pregnant with your pH dropping to a 3 at some point in your sway?

My goal was 4.0-4.5 but I did drop a few times to 3.0 during the lucky month!  I wanted to lean on the acidic side as this was my last chance for a girl.  [XY][XY][XY][XY][XY]    due 2/26/10   [DD]!

Looking for a changinging station solution for downstairs

[DD]Having sold off all my baby stuff two different times, I have to start over again.  We have a two story and need a changing station downstairs as this is where I spend most of the daytime.  I thought of a pack n play might work for the first months or maybe I should buy an inexpensive changer for the downstairs?  My oldest son's room is downstairs but I don't think a 14 year old...

Re: hey mamas lets see your cloth diaper stash

I love the pics!  I can't wait to start my own stash.  Even if we weren't environmentalists I would cd because they are soooo cute!!!!  I can't wait to cd a little girl bottom! [XY][XY][XY][XY][XY]       due Feb. 26, 2010    [DD]!   She still needs a name.

Re: seeking advice!

Welcome!  I have 5 boys, so I have been in your shoes.  I used the shettles method alone in 2001 and instead of having a girl, we had fraternal twin boys.  In 2007/2008 we tried microsort IUI X 2 with no bfp.  We spent $10,000.  But I am now 40, so it could have been my age (39).  Out of money, we decided to give one more try with a low tech O+12 sway.  We d...

Re: For those whose sways were successful....

I swayed in 2001 by reading the shettles book.  I did not take supplements or follow a diet.  After not getting pg for 6 mo. with a 3 day cut off, I did a 2 day cut off.  Instead of a girl, I had fraternal twin boys!  We had 2 attempts with m/s iui in 2007/2008 with no luck.  Our last attempt was a low tech sway with diet, supplements and the O+12.  After 5 month...

Re: losing hair...

I lost tons of hair during my first pg.  All the other pgs I lost the hair after they were born.  With the first my hair was just fine after.  At some point after childbirth your hair will recover.  I just wish only my gray hair would fall out.

Re: How much weight has everyone gained?

I really hate all you skinny young moms.  I have regretfully gained 27 pounds at 20 weeks.  I am trying to follow my GD diet and see if I can slow my gain.  Wish me luck or I will be as big as a house.   [grouchy]

Re: I'm so DONE with all prenatal care and this supposed GD is the last draw

I have had GD with all my pgs 5 counting this one.  I feel your pain!  Follow your sensible diet and cut back on your fingersticks.  Usually after a few days of testing you would know if there are any particular foods or food combos that raise your bloodsugar too high.  I know what I can get away with so to speak.  When I was pg with twins my GD started at 15 wee...

Re: Swine flu vaccine...are you getting it?

I read an article of a woman who survived the swine flu while pregnant.  It was in the Sacramento Bee on Sat. Oct. 10th.  You can read it on line through their web site.  She was 27 weeks pg and ended up on a ventilator for weeks.  They took the baby at 29 weeks by c-section.  The baby did not have h1n1 and did well.  The mother is slowly recovering and is still in a ...

Re: Would you buy a USED car seat??

Years ago I would have said no but after twins I say go for it!  If you know the history and if it is less than 5 years old it is safe to use.  I use to host a community carseat safety check with highway patrol and the local Medical Center and that was their rule of thumb.

Re: Gerber Reusable Nursing Pads

I used gerber for years and never had a problem.  Sometimes I had to double up or even stuff cotten prefolds in my nursing bra to help with overflow.  I was always changed them as they became wet.  I found the disposables did not help me much and did not hold enough liquid.  I think there worth a try as they are cheap!

Re: Stroller connectors

I used them with 2 umbrella strollers for my twins as they got older.  I was useful when dh was with me on an outing because we could split up the twins and go to different places with the older boys.  I gave them to a friend with twins who used them at disneyland for the same reason.  The main drawback is it makes a very wide stroller to get through doorways!  This is not good...

Re: Who else is on their last baby?

We only wanted 3 kids.  My 3rd prenancy was twins, so we had 4!  They were born 10 weeks and 1 day early and I was too busy to think about sterilization 19 months later I became pg with #5.  Now at 40 I am having a girl.  My dh and sons are very happy.  I would not go back and change a thing.  Except for all the baby stuff and maternity clothes I sold off twice.

Re: Anyone got a girl after 1 shot bd with cut off after abstention?

One time bd O+8 trying for an O+12 but dh needed to sleep.  This was my 5th cycle of doing this.  My egg had most likely expired with the O+12.  That is my best guess anyway. [XY][XY][XY][XY][XY]          due Feb. 26 2010 [DD]!
