37.2 hours ago Aw thanks! I know it has been awful!! I am sooo ready for this to be OVER with..Still waiting...It seems like when I get excited and anxious there is no luck and when im not exspecting it I get contractions etc. But on the bright side i guess i better get as much rest as possible before my babby boy arrives.! Hope you are doing better rykersmommy! -

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

Tuesday, 30 September I'm with ya--every week I had been measuring right on track, but last time I had an appointment she said I was measuring small. *shrug* My doctor also said not to worry about it, so I haven't given it a lot of thought. I'm sure our babies are fine... best wishes to you. :) kelim -
Tuesday, 30 September i wouldnt worry bout your measurments hun, i have measured different every time i have been, and the midwife said there really is no cause for concern, so try not to worry as they wouldnt say its ok and no it is not xx JsMomAndOneMoreComing -
Monday, 29 September Thanks for sharing your advice and GOOD LUCK TO YOU TOO :D
ALMOST THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday, 28 September Hey :D
I also had my first sleep with me. It was easier for him to sleep, and for me b/c I was breastfeeding after going thru a c-section, not having to keep getting up and down. He just seemed more content and happy with me...
Anyway, I was a little worried this time b/c his dad will be in the bed too, but, my mom has me scared, saying "dads roll over on their kids all the time" - I think it will be fine. I just feel better knowing I am not the only one who thinks its ok for the kids to be in bed with us. And then, once my son was a little older, we got him a COOL, car bed and I didnt have any problems getting him in his own bed :D
Plus, what about SIDS?? I just dont know much about SIDS, but the thought scares me... Like, are they suppose to sleep on their back?? I guess the doctor will know more than me :D
THANKS for writing!!! :D ourfirstone -
Saturday, 27 September Hi! We're going to use the pack-n-play in our bedroom too. I've got a Graco. It seems pretty sturdy... I can't wait to see her in there sleeping.... No signs yet though.... jkmommy -
Saturday, 27 September I am doing the pack n play thing i got the fisher price rain forest themed one and i think they all are a litte wobbly but its nothing im too concerned about i think it will hold just fine i put alot of pressure on it just to make sure imreadythistime -
Wednesday, 24 September hey thank for the comment i feel a little better about how things are going to turn out i just didnt know what 2 expect! lauren232m -
Tuesday, 23 September thats soo wierd i was deciding between the savannah and the one your other daughter has! My boyfriend is really good at building things and he had a hard time with the crib, he said the easiest way to put the spring part in is to put the whole crib together and then lay it on its back and put the spring in it. what would i do with out him haha lauren232m -
Tuesday, 23 September i think its the savannah crib. it was sooo hard to put together! the way they made it was retarded, but its beautiful so i dont care! the lady at the baby store said that there supposed to last a long time so hopefully the money will be worth it! which one did you get? lauren232m -
Tuesday, 23 September i got a munire crib and dresser and it came in right on time..the swing on the other hand is taking forever!! dextersmum -
Monday, 22 September I think it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was such a light sleeper anyway once my son was born (when he wasn't in our bed) that i just simply slept better with him in there.
Thanks for letting me know what you thought of the post though, I was wondering if my views might have been a bit "too hippy" for the majority of people... Shaymika1987 -
Monday, 22 September Never hurts to be too safe I would go to the Dr just to have it checked out. Shaymika1987 -
Saturday, 20 September I to also never went into labor with my other two I had to have everything done to me. I didn't even have any pains or anything and I could sleep all through the night so i agree. charlee2008smummy -
Thursday, 18 September Ummm too much energy girl! charlee2008smummy -

Tuesday, 16 September i get that feeling as well, probably the best way i could explain it is like breathing... is slightly different to hiccups, so not really sure what it is... did think last night could be something to do with the fluid when he moves, but that just guessing... kassyfk -
Tuesday, 16 September Those are hiccups! My baby does it all the time! Shaymika1987 -
Tuesday, 16 September I know exactly what you are talking about. I can look at my belly and it seems like it's a heart beat always thought that it was too never thought that it was him breathing. Cute to watch though
