As for that part, I'm not too sure. But I can see the reasoning behind waiting until the child is older because in the event that the child were to have a reaction and god forbid, die from it, it would be difficult to pinpoint it to the hep B shot because they are so small. Like I said, I'm gonna ask my doc about it tomorrow. If she acts like she knows much about it, I'll let you know what I find out.

I understand how you feel. We kinda feel the same way. I think the benefit of giving the hep B shot is of course, to keep the baby from getting it. But its not just one shot, I think its a series of 4 shots that the baby has to get over several months. I think the problem is that babies can have reactions to the shot. I read a bunch of testimonials where parents lost their babies and since they were so young, it was difficult to determine why they died, so doctors tried to blame it on SIDS. But really it was because the baby had reactions to the shot. Here's the site I read.. http://www.thinktwice.com/hepb.htm. Like I said, we are still considering it, but lean more towards declining. I feel pretty confident that my baby won't be exposed to the virus for many years.

It sucked - to be blunt lol. :). Order the epi ASAP, you will still feel contractions but won't feel the pain. I was started with the cervidil to soften my cervix, that was for 12 hours, and then they started the pitocin, I had him after only 7 hours of actual labor. Thanks on the congrats! Keep me updated!

It was me that posted about it the other day. I didn't know to even consider it before someone else posted a few links on it a week or two ago. I pulled up some info for my hubby and let hiim take a look. We decided to decline the Hep B shot, since the baby won't need that at least until he starts school. My husband was in the army and got his series of shots then, and he was 24. I'm not sure that I've ever had them and I was a premiscuous teenager and also worked in a blood testing lab for a year and a half. I just don't think that the baby needs such a shot, especially being so young. As for the vitamin K, we are leaning toward not giving it, but of course, there are those circumstances where you might wanna give it, such as if you have a c-sect or if the baby was in distress or something. So I'm gonna have a talk with my doctor and get her opinion on it first, but as of right now, we are leaning towards not getting it if I have a good delivery and the baby is healthy at birth. What does your book say about vitamin K? All of the info I got about it was found by looking up sites on google.

Hellooo!! Wow..so I am not alone !! Sorry that you didn't have a good night last night... I guess I can literally say " I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL" ;). Well I am honestly not sure.. I have my Dr.'s appointment at 11:00 a.m. tomorrow. I am going to see what he says.. I'll definately let you know what he tells me. For me the pain stopped and came back a few hours ago... I did notice that my baby is moving less than I am used to ..cuz she's quite active!! Been getting stronger BH...nothing regular at the moment. I hope you are doing well dear... we're almost there!!!!!! :D Stay positive and we'll get through it and have our babies in our arms soon :). Happy Mother's Day!!! xo's

thanks!! i didnt see it coming either! i was 8 days early.

You can go up to 2 weeks over, if you don't want to be induced and you're both healthy don't let them!! xXx

i think its odd that he would spray or mark territories since hes fixed, that is supposed to take away that urge. but they do sell this stuff called natures miracle at pet smart that completely takes away the smell so they wont repeat in the same spot. its works really good. and i know they also sell spray to use so they wont mark spots, dont know how it works ive never used it. but throwing up isnt his fault. i wouldnt be worried about him if he isnt a mean cat. but my cat is an indoor cat. sometimes we take him out in the grass to play but he is never left alone out. its just a treat for his curiosity. hes my first baby too so i know that attachment. again, i would so give him a chance, its better to try rather then always wonder if everyting would have been alright.

im not worried about my kitty hes a really good cat. if he doesnt like something he just runs away. never bit or scratched before. plus we buy those plastic nail caps so he cant claw. id be devastaed if i had to give him up. i actually took those pics myself believe it or not, i used the auto timer and a tripod. it took me a while and alot of pics with the head cut off before i got a few good ones. ha. i just want pics to looks back at one day. why do you have to give up your kitty?

I second Chute's comments. They cannot induce you against your will. And they have to have a good reason to incuce you before 42 weeks. At 42 weeks there are reasons to induce, such as risk of the baby passing meconium in utero. But before that, he should have a very specific reason why he believes it is medically necessary for the health of you or the baby, Assert yourself, ask questions, and you should be fine. Good luck!

your doctor cant make you induce labor. that is completely up to you. if you want to wait it out a few more days, then you have that right. they can only suggest things to you. just do what you feel is right.

If you plan on going on the pill after you give birth please reconsider. Two of my very good friends started getting migraines after going on the pill and one of their doctors told them you have a higher chance of suffering migraines if you go on the pill after giving birth!!! Maybe give your body time to get rid of all the extra hormones after you give birth and then if there's no change you really need to see a specialist. Sometimes people say going to a chiropractor can help...headaches are the stupidest things..so pointless and unnecessary. I hope it stops for you!!!! Hopefully after the birth it will all end. Good Luck to you!

My husband is 100% mexican. His grandpa was from Spain, but all Mexicans have some European in them. None of his family looks white at all. I have dark hair and dark eyes too so I thought there was no way to have a blonde hair blue eyed child. What's so irritating is all the people who are "Joking" when they say,,,, are you sure he's the father? AHHHHH

i do the perennial massages and I hate doing it lol. But yes I have found that it does hurt..it started hurting less the more I did it. You just have to totally relax all those muscles down there and imagine everything opening up for baby...

I had my hubby do them a couple times...and it did hurt! So he doesnt really like them as much lol...and I hate laying there while he does it:(

Ah man! I can't believe you still got that dang migraine! Poor thing! I remember they gave me a shot of Demerol. The second one didn't work until I took the Midrin with it. Also the nurse said to drink lots of caffein for a whole week till the headache went away. I hardly ever drink caffeine. I would maybe try a caffeine pill like No Doz or something like that. Have they said anything about caffeine? If you usually have caffeine and go cold turkey it can cause migraines in some people (withdrawal). Gosh I wish I could help more, I so relate!!!

Posie - Tuesday, 29 April
Yay, my headaches are gone!!! How about you? I ended up going in twice for shots but it's gone now. Course as soon as they go away, I catch a monster cold!!! :)
