We must keep the pictures on the boards to a minimum so that the written comments can continued to be written and read.

Hi there,
I work for a television production company based in the UK . We are currently making a documentary for ITV1 exploring the issues surrounding pregnancy and eating disorders. The film will be a thoughtful and insightful look into this extremely sensitive subject.
We’re in the research stage of our production and very keen to chat to women who are, or have been, pregnant whilst having an eating disorder.
If you’re interested in having a chat or finding out more about our documentary, it would be really great to hear from you. All communication would be in complete confidence.
You can contact me on: seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

..elizabeth.. - Saturday, 27 September Doesn't it feel totally different then peeing?? I'm so confused on what it is
kassyfk - Friday, 26 September Thats sounds like that is what it was.
Midget Gem - Saturday, 23 August i keep getting little pains around my belly button actually... mainly on the lower bit of it... not sure if it just coz it's stretching pains or something like that... have noticed that my belly button is getting further and further out each week, so could be that... even though when the baby is laying more towards my back, it goes back in =S bit weird...
msmimi - Saturday, 23 August I was feeling the belly button pain every so often for a few weeks then it just stopped. I did notice that after it stopped my belly button has now began to petrude ever so slightly...So I just assume that it was due to the stretching of the uterus and growing little person inside!!!!
MarloeBeansMom - Monday, 11 August If you are getting consistent tightening that will not go away, I would document everything and call the dr or advice nurse, either that or go to the hospital. Braxton hicks can turn into pre-term labor contractions so they need to be stopped. I learned all about it when my best friend was pregnant for her first time-with twins. She went into pre-term labor several times, and several times I ended up at the hospital with her. I am sure you will be fine, but I suppose it's better to be safe than sorry. I hope you start to feel better soon.
stone - Sunday, 10 August I had serious Braxton Hix contractions for a week before my son was born. They were almost constant. "Real" contractions are suppose to be measurably regular and get stronger. I know everyone is different, but for me I thought the BH contrations were real until I felt "real" contractions and then I KNEW the difference. If you think you might be having contractions, just go to your Dr. 1) it is better safe then sorry. 2) It is there job. 3) Why would you pay them all of the money if you are not going to use them.
MarloeBeansMom - Sunday, 10 August About contractions, you know everyone has a different experience and view about contractions. You are supposed to just "know" I thought when it came time to having real ones. Well with my first daughter, she decided to come 5 weeks early as I guess my water was leaking slightly. I went to the hospital the next morning and told them I just wasn't feeling right. They checked me out and the nurse said "Hun, your 5 cm dilated, your gonna have a baby today. Those pesky contractions are whats making you not feel right" I will never forget her saying that lol!
BabyEby3 - Sunday, 3 August I think as long as you pass they wont contact you but if you have to retake the test is when they will call you. If you are concerned just cal the dr office and ask the nurse they should tell you over the phone. Good luck and congrats on your baby!!
tamara4843 - Sunday, 3 August I had my glucose test on Thursday and haven't heard anything yet, either. As far as I know, my results will be sent from the hospital to my family doctor, and as long as nothing came up, I'll find out the results at my next appointment with her. I'm assuming if I failed the test, they'd call me right away to let me know!! I'd say your test went well :).
MrsKiwi - Wednesday, 30 July I'm with you on the glucose drink... sugar doesn't bother me in the slightest, but I just felt icky after drinking that orange stuff this past week. And I found out that my levels were too high, so I have to go back and do a two-hour test next week. Ah, the joys of pregnancy. Hope your test went well!
Megan the lump maker - Wednesday, 30 July sometimes you can be sensitive to the sugar overload! Especially if you are not use to it.
roro73 - Monday, 30 June I feel my lil' boy mostly on the right side too.
He usualy kicks under the belly button, onto of the belly and the right side. Depends on how they are positioned. In a few weeks they will be all over the palce kicking.
mrskcich - Friday, 20 June When you are done cleaning your house, feel free to come to mine if you need more to do! LOL
