I hate when people tell you how terrifying labour is, I was so scared when I had my first... Because someone always seems to tell you a horrific story that they or someone they know had happen to them. I freaked out, and had time to freak too because she was over due, and I had to be enduced, which women started telling me was the worst thing ever..lol. I have had such easy deliveries with all of my children thus far. My smallest baby was 8lbs 14oz... I did not even scream during labour with any of my children. I know every women is different, but there is no need to freak your self out!

Being induced is not the best idea unless your baby is not growing properly in the womb and needs to come out for more direct care. Babies should be allowed to come when they're good and ready, and not before as long as everything is going well. I had my daughter 3 days late, and because she was inside longer she's been really advanced for her age because of the extra time she spent in there. I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do, or seem like a know-it-all, but doctors won't tell you this. The best thing for our babies is to let things happen naturally unless there is a medical reason not to.

What's everyone's opinon on getting induce early. Well I was actually thinking about getting induce on Aug 30th. 1week before my due date. I've talk it over with my OB doctor and she doesnt find a reason why I couldnt do it because my baby is gaining weight properly and is healthy. Help mamas!

Since I uncounted some assholes this week, here is my new to 14 list: Things you never say to a pregnant woman 1. Twins? 2. Any day now ? (when you are 6 months pregnant) 3. Are you really going to eat this? 4.I only gained 2 pounds during my pregnancy and lost 60 pounds 2 weeks after 5. I never needed any maternity clothes 6. Your life is over, huh? 7. Hope you don't like to sleep too much 8. I felt like I was dying during labor 9. My epidural didn't take 10. Are you going to breastfeed? 11. If I were you, I would...12. I could never imagine leaving my baby with a nanny. 13. We can still call you about work stuff while you are on maternity, right? 14 And finally from a male co-worker...'Is it true you get hornier when you are pregnant?'

Please go to my page and vote on a date for my baby shower. :)I`m due November 2nd. Should I have my baby shower August 17 or October 5? August is the month of my fiance`s birthday, October is mine. If I have it in October I will be 9 months pregnant. If I have it in August I will be 7 months pregnant. Consider the body and weight changes between being 7 months and 9 months pregnant. Thanks for your help.

Hi everyone I'm 14w 5d have a question, flying home on June 19th, will just be 19 weeks. I can now feel little kicks, do you think my family will be able to feel them too by then? This is our first and wish our families could be more involved, this is the last visit 'till baby is born so we'll be having the baby shower as well. Take care everyone. Please respond to my page, thanks.

Can you provide me with your opinion? we live in the USA and my husband loves the name Elliot Jaxon (as far as the spelling goes- we have not gotten that far so I do not need help on spellings). When I first heard the name Elliot.. I was like 'NO WAY!' It reminded me of ET (the movie). What do you ladies think? We do not want a common name on the top 100 but we do not want a name that would make him stand out and get made fun of. My husband is sold on it... I am not, however, it is growing on me. As far as nicknames, we could call him Eli (pronounced like E-lie), EJ, or Jax. Which nickname do you like best? Do you have suggestions on names that are not common (but not made up)? Can you send me a message on my page? THANK YOU!!!! =)

My little baby only seems to really kick and move after I have eaten on late at night! He/She kicks for my boyfriend but not for anyone else!

hopeful2008 - 8 hours ago
Hi Whatwillitbe, my little one is exactly the same, he moves all the time, kicks real strong and hard LOADS but the minute daddy or anyone else comes near and touches my belly it stops too, its so funny. Seems they got their own ideas already - Boy if thats the case, we're in trouble hey LOL.

mbecker - 8.6 hours ago

stephaniem - 9.7 hours ago
24 weeks!! I have another scan in 2 weeks to check on growth as my Uterine PI was high which apparently is the blood flow to the womb? Trying not to worry!!!! Baby is moving like crazy, mostly at night!!x

christina1869 - 11.6 hours ago
24 Weeks, WOOHOO!!!! Only 16 more....I can tell my little girl is getting stronger by how hard her kicks are now, I love it.. although it does make me feel queezy when she stretches right out. I hope all you mommies are keeping well. Christina. X

amzweifel - 14.9 hours ago
Bedtime is becoming bitter-sweet. I love it because I can get some shut eye and I love sleep right now, but I just can't get comfortable. Then there is the constant waking up to pee.

whatwillitbe - 15.1 hours ago
i live in the us but they told me the length and weight of my baby at my last scan...my baby kicks all the time..but moreso after i have been bending over (kinda like saying stop squishing me!!) or after i drink oj but some days he's not as active as otehrs..and when people touch my stomach he stops moving

Has anyone tried to switch hospitals at 37 weeks pregnant? Do you know if it is possible? Thanks in advance for your help.

JackaMumma - 20 hours ago
ashley211 - what is a tongue ring ball? I am intrigued :) Also I've never been told the weight of my baby (not even height) - then again, I never asked. Does not seem to be a common thing they tell you in Australia either (or maybe just the people I am seeing) I think my doc subscribes to the theory that the less they tell you, the less you will worry.? Also I have found that after drinking a large glass of freezing cold OJ, my boy responds within 30 seconds (esp if the OJ is not fresh squeezed... I suppose the bottled stuff has more sugar and stuff in it).

ashley211 - 20.4 hours ago
Has anyone ever swallowed a tongue ring ball while pregnant. I did that tonight while I ate. Everything should be fine right. I will pass it with my next bowel movement.

lisauk - 21.8 hours ago
my friend found out the weight of her baby at a 28 week scan in uk apparently i will find out wen i have mine then aswel we only get scan at 28 weeks if youve had problems or underweight or overweight

hopeful2008 - 22.2 hours ago
As im having a home birth (all being well) i have to have another scan at 37 weeks so maybe i'll ask the weight of the baby then - mind you maybe at 37 weeks its best not to know ey hahahaha.

hopeful2008 - 22.2 hours ago
Hi mama2miaplus1, i reckon your right about the UK thing. I live not far from you so might even be this area LOL. Thanks anyway and many good wishes to you with your 2nd baby, bless ya xxx

barron06 - 23.8 hours ago
How do you know when your baby has the hicups? What does it feel like?

miagraciani - 23.8 hours ago
24 weeks today Hurray, Time is going by fast but not fast enough. Good luck to you all!

erikavb - 23.9 hours ago
i find myself gasping for air now too! my dr said that when that happens to lay of my left side for a few minutes... my little one moves a heck of alot at nights. ofcourse some days more than others. i felt him with the hickups a few times. ;)

kristam - 1 days ago
I always ask the estimated weight of the baby. And they always tell me. But it might be different in the UK, and sometimes the ultra sound techs are not as pleasant as others. If you get another scan ask if they can give you the weight. If not at least you asked...lol. If you are worried about feeling the baby move drink a big jug of water, and lay on your left side, or flat on your back, you will more then likely feel the baby at least once. Like the page above states it is starting to get pretty tight in there for the baby, so the movements will become less frequent... Good Luck ladies!

Mama2Miaplus1 - 1 days ago
Hi hopeful I am from 25 weeks and live in England UK and I asked the weight at my 20 week scan and they said they don't tell you so it must be a UK thing. Good luck with your pregnancy.

hopeful2008 - 1 days ago
Hi guys, quick question, im just wondering how you all seem to know how heavy you babies are! How do you know? Im assuming its from yr scans, but when i went for mine they just measured length and stuff and didnt tell us how much the baby weighed. Do you think its different in the UK and thats maybe why i have nt been told? Would be interensted to find out. Anyway, hope you are all happy and well xxx

lauralou2111 - 1 days ago
Hi lisauk, if u dont feel anything for 24hrs then def go to ur day unit tommorow, but i had the same last week, my baby moves every 1hr one day and none the next and the midwife said it can be quite common at this stage so try not to worry, give your belly a small prod! or lay flat on ur back see if u can get a movement. let me know how u get on xx

lisauk - 1 days ago

Judy~N~PaulVong - 1 days ago
if anyone had MysticMoonQueen do a prediction for them, you can let her know on my page, as I am a good friend of one of her relatives. ^_^ They took her page away because someone reported her for advertising.

kristam - 1 days ago
I got to have another ultra sound done because my little peanut is being stubborn, she has decided she wants to be head down already...lol. So they are having a hard time getting all parts they like to see. Hopefully this time they got what they needed. She weighs 1lbs 7oz. Her movements are becoming less frequent, but are much stronger.

I think sometimes us ladies worry a little too much about everything. I think we should all just take a relaxing day at a spa or something. Hehe, I am guilty also. But every day I read about ladies who are worried about their baby kicking less, their lack of weight gain, and so many other things... but I think sometimes what we fail to remember is everyone's pregnancy is different so you really cannot compare. Someone's baby might move all day long while another might have a lazy baby! Hehe, as long as you are keeping up with your regular doctor appointments, the heart beat is nice and strong, the doctor will surely alert you if there is anything to worry about! We'll have plenty of time to worry once they get here... for instance, the first night they sleep all the way through you know we will be up 20 times checking on them! Not to mention all the times they get sick. So, let's all relax a little and enjoy the miracle that is too be! Plenty of time for worrying later. :D Don't worry, I am taking my own advice on this one as well, lol.

Hey girls, Is anyone worried about deformaties and things like that? When I had my daughter I always worried if she would come out and have something wrong with her (not that I would love her any less) and thank the lord she was perfect, but I seem to be going through this again... Does anyone else worry all the time? I had a co-worker show me photos of cleft lip and now I can not stop thinking about other things that can possibly go wrong. Am I the only one?

kammysmom - 1 days ago
Mummatobe Just wanted to say you are so not alone I am there with you it was like when she figured out she could kick, she went to kicking all the time like crazy. I loved that I really enjoyed it, kinda made me giggle at her. Now tho it has slowed down alot, really makes me worry cause I think of all the possible things that could be wrong. I wish she would just give me a kick regularly to let me know she is ok!!!

24 weeks today! I am sooo excited, although I have to admitt that I am starting to get tired again! I can not sleep for anything... And when I do fall asleep I have turned into a REALLY light sleeper... but I did get a new memory foam pillow and it is so comfy! So maybe this will help! Good Luck Mommies!

dcmom2b......For me the best place I think is Lazensa Bras they have many kinds there are good support you can get them at as pretty good price.

dcmom2b - 1 days ago
Can anyone recommend a good brand of bras that I can try out? I swear the only ones that are in the least bit tolerable for me right now are sports bras and those don't really work under the clothes I wear to work -- the shoulder straps are too thick and stick out of the neckline.

mummatobe - 1 days ago
Hi everyone. Is it just me or does anyone else notice their baby kick more on some days and less on others? Mine was kicking like crazy until last Saturday.. Now I still feel him but less often. I'm a little concerned, any advice would be great thanks.

hi, im from week 23 and I have a question:does anyone have a horrible burning pain underneath there left breast? It hurts when im sitting mostly, I cant even touch it,it wakes me up at night it burns so bad. I heard that anytime you get a tingling, numbness, burning, etc sensation its cause the baby's sitting on a nerve, just wondering if there's anything anyone heard about that or knows what i can do to relive the pain. It honestly feels like my skin is on fire and I think its to early for it to be a foot or hand. Thanks ladies.

Marypozaz - my neighbor is letting me use hers...i'm just buying new hoses and the booby cup thingys. The milk doesn't go through the motor part and that's the expensive piece.

Hi Ladies, I am from week 17. I got some disturbing news yesterday and wanted to see if any of you had insight. Right now our baby has Choroid Plexus Cyst (CPC) and Fetal Renal Pelvis Dilatation. We had a sequential screen done in the first tri and our risk for chromosome was very low. Both of these things are soft markers for chromosome defects. We are going to have a level II ultrasound to check further. Please let me know if you know anything on either of these conditions. Thanks!
