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.

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.

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

lifeandmusic8975 - Thursday, 1 May Thank you for the advice!! Maybe I will try that. How old is your daughter?
DanaLee - Thursday, 17 April thats reassuring, thanks
purpledaisy - Thursday, 17 April Thanks for your feedback and encouragement. My midwife is ok with me waiting so I canceled Friday's induction and have a NST booked now instead. will just wait it out a while longer if all looks good. There's a full moon on Sunday so who knows... Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful daughter... She's so cute! (sorry to hear how painful as it was) All the best in the weeks ahead
DanaLee - Thursday, 17 April do you know if the estimate was from an ultrasound?
lilmami8508 - Sunday, 13 April i ate spicy food and hot sauce all day and nothing.... i guess nothing works for me :(
JennMomof3 - Thursday, 27 Mar I find out the exact day tomorrow. The woman in charge of scheduling the inductions was out of the office for the day today. Just my luck lol I WILL be calling her first thing tomorrow to find out though :)
lilmami8508 - Thursday, 27 Mar it IS exciting tho! to find out how close you're getting to going into labor! good luck with everything!!!
JennMomof3 - Thursday, 27 Mar I'm sure you progressed more... I went in today and was 2 cm dilated..lost my mucous plug and he could feel my babies head! I didn't think I had changed since the last visit. So I won't make it to my due date they are inducing at 38 weeks next week. Good luck!
lilmami8508 - Thursday, 27 Mar there's a real good chance you progressed! once you start dilating you can go into labor anytime. you can go from 1 cm to 4 cm in a day! especially if you're having contractions, that's a real good sign that you are progressing.
aderyn3 - Wednesday, 26 Mar They have always dissolved well for me. Good luck!
muggles0682 - Tuesday, 25 Mar OH yeah! I really am going to go find some tonight. So weird question but did it give you the 'runs' or anything? I have heard it has the same side affects as the Caster oil.
muggles0682 - Tuesday, 25 Mar So what store did you find them at? If we have it here then I will just start looking there. Was it a health food store?
muggles0682 - Monday, 24 Mar Thanks so much.....I am going to go buy some!
aderyn3 - Monday, 24 Mar hi there! I've always used the EPO in capsule form, and inserted 2-3 'up there.' ;0) I usually had my hubby help me insert them. I'm not sure what the mg was on it, just used whatever came in the bottle. I think it does help. I used it with my last one. I haven't started it yet this time. I'm checking tonight to see if I have any left, and if not I'm picking some up tomorrow! Good luck!
muggles0682 - Monday, 24 Mar Hey I am with you on taking the EPO. If you find out how to take it or how much let me know and vice versa. I am ready to get this baby out! Pulling all the stops now! If you have any good ideas let me know.
Jo-Mama - Thursday, 20 Mar You can still deliver in a matter of days because we're all different. Some people lose their mucous plugs weeks before birth and some only hours. I have no real signs of labour, but my midwife said it could happen in two days or in two weeks. You can never really tell. Frustrating, huh?
Titti - Thursday, 20 Mar That's exactly what my midwife said during my last appointment after my internal. Just softening and nothing else, which is normal at this point, she said. I was at the end of my 36 week then. I'm hoping for some more progress on my next appointment on Fri (end of 37 week). Wish you the best! And hopefully our babies are not going to be late :)
OurBabyBean0508 - Thursday, 20 Mar I would guess that your cervix is becoming soft but has not yet 'thinned out' or become shorter, and you haven't dilated at all yet. Every woman is different and you may just be one of those who doesn't dilate early, but with this being your first baby I would guess that you're probably gonna go late. I would start walking every day and stand as much as possible!! I was 1 1/2 weeks late with my first and I didn't start dilating until 39 1/2 weeks. :) Good luck doll.
mommy4ever - Wednesday, 19 Mar Thanks for the reassuring comment (:
lenslik - Tuesday, 18 Mar thanks:) I hope so:) b/c my friend was still pregnant another 3 weeks after her belly dropped. 3 more weeks for me means 42 weeks in total, I'll go crazy!:)))))))
