Laura Ward - Sunday, 7 December Message to all: This message is not intended for any one person, but a general statement to all members of the site. After hearing what you all think in regards to posting photos on the forums, we have modified the rules and ask that everyone familiarize yourself so that the site continues to remain friendly for everyone, including new members. In an effort to be respectful of all members of the site, we ask that members do not post more than ONE photo or video per person in the weekly, monthly and information forums. Your ONE picture should be small in size as well. Any large photos will be deleted. You are welcome to post as many pictures as you would like in the photo books, which were created for the purpose of sharing and viewing photos. You may also post as many blogs as you would like with photos in them. We understand that many members enjoy posting and viewing pictures on the forums, but this is not where they belong. We must keep the pictures on the boards to a minimum so that the written comments can continued to be written and read. Otherwise, the numerous amounts of large pictures squash the messages and they become missed. We ask that this modification be respected, therefore any member that continues to post numerous pictures a day will be deleted from the site. Thank you all for helping us keep the site friendly and welcoming for all members.
Dirk - Friday, 5 December Message to all: In the last 2 years you all posted 1.1 million photos to the site, and that needs a little maintenance. We are currently renaming all photos from the personal photobooks in order to speed up the site. Some, or all your photos may not show while we are working on the photobooks. You don't have to do anything. We hope to have all photos sorted in about 24 hours from now. You can upload new photos to your photobook while the computer is working on your other photos. Thanks for reading.

Laura Ward - Monday, 6 October Message to all This may be interesting to some of you. Seema`s email is seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com
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

karina - Saturday, 23 August thanks for the comment, I will follow your advice, I really don't think that shaving her hair will do any good, but I just wanted to hear from other mommies that didn't do this, everyone that I know (who has had babies) did it (they do this in the mexican culture), so I wasn't sure ...thanks again!
momtotheo - Wednesday, 20 August Now that's a nice seat!! Too bad they don't sell it in Canada!
bellydancer - Monday, 23 June Awwwwwwe! Your baby girl is SOOOOO PRECIOUS!! Thanks for the comments. Your birth story sounds like all the reasons I wanted home birth, mainly, NO BODY induces me, I get to let nature take its course so I don't end up w/ an emergency C. WHich I wouldn't need if the doctors didn't create an emergency for me. LOOL!! THe good news is, in the end you got your precious gift from The LORD, and still managed to avoid the knife. I suggest reading the book, "pushed Birth" before you give birth again to get you up to speed on all the ins and outs of labor and delivery from the medical perspective. It gives you the opportunity to see the procedure in a different light. After all, you make such beauties, I KNOW you just gotta have another, LOL!! :} (don't know why when I copy & paste the smileys it doesn't work for me, what's up with that)?!?! Hugs, Alisha
samanthar - Tuesday, 6 May I've been meaning to respond to your comment about the teething thing, but i kept forgetting. Anyway thanks for the response, hopefully he will get some soon but we will see. Your little girl is so cute by the way. Have a good night!
babyJSL - Monday, 5 May Thanks for responding! I left his running nose alone. It is now much better. It just went away. I will keep in mind about saline drop the next time he has a terrible running nose. By the way, you baby girl is so adorable. I can see the camera loves her. Lots of nice pictures. I can't belive she is sitting already. My baby can't sit yet. Anyway, thanks again.
illy1 - Sunday, 4 May Hi, my baby had a bad cold/runny nose for quite a few days and we tried saline drops and all that but nothing seemed to help. Then a friend of mine recommended trying a bit of breastmilk and the next day his cold was gone! It also worked when he had mild conjunctivitis. I guess it works as a kind on antiseptic and of course it's full of antibodies.
brandywittwins - Thursday, 1 May yes ive tried everything ...there taking there bottles fine
hunnybunnysmama - Wednesday, 23 April Ah thanks! You little Adriana is suuuuuuper cute! Does everyone just go crazy over her eyes and hair every where you go? I wish we could go to the beach, it's like winter here!
oneluvX2 - Sunday, 20 April thanks....ive learned what not to do with the next one!
jh1983 - Thursday, 10 April I was just talking to another woman about that. My nurse told me not to eat many carbs three days before the test...which is why i did it. I usually eat whole wheat pastas and the go lean kashi cereal for snacks. I am mainly a fruit and veggie person though - so i still ate plenty of those before my test. However, my doctor doesnt perform a 3 hour test. He only puts you on a diabetes diet if your numbers are high. Which I think will be good for me regardless. It will help me make sure I am eating all of the right foods. When chatting with the other woman, i realized that so many doctors have their patients do various thingse before their test. I wish they were a little more consistent! But thanks for the tip.
my-lil-miracle - Monday, 7 April Hey, yeah the exam was only esternal so I don't beleive that dr. and I won't be seeing her again, so....... I'm hoping my baby will be no more then 8.6 pounds.. thatwould be good, and i really hope he doesn't have any of the GD side effects..
