i eat mayo, almost 2-3 times a week! and have sicne i became pregnant. turkey sandwiches were the only thing i could keep down for a long time!


jessy613 - Wednesday, 30 Jan
im not sure what you were told about mayo..but i eat deli sandwiches all the time, and my doctor told me that its fine and in RARE cases, listera can happen, but he told me to go ahead and eat deli sandwhiches and not to worry and I eat them with mayo on them all the time.:) hope this helps

just read your comment on back pain. My tailbone kills me at the end of the day. I find that a warm bath just before bed helps to relieve the pain a ton. Even better, a warm baby and then a nice back rub from hubby while you drift off to sleep.


first-time-mami - Saturday, 26 Jan
icy hot helps with back pains :)


hennessey631 - Wednesday, 23 Jan
the super long pillow, like a body pillow has been working for me. i just put it between my legs while im sleeping and it really helps. give it a try :)


Baby-Roberts - Tuesday, 22 Jan
Hi congrats! I love the name Dominic very cute. My ultrasound tech said he was 100% that it was a boy. I am just worrying for no reason. I want to set up the room so I guess I am just going to have to take that chance. I just can't imagine having to buy all new stuff. I am sure we are fine. Good luck to you!


babyoneG - Tuesday, 22 Jan
I am not happy that you are sick at all, but I am glad that I am not alone. I did not think that I would be feeling like this again. It isn't quite as intense as 1st trimester, but I definitely don't feel 'good'


babyoneG - Friday, 18 Jan
I just read your post. I am a teacher, too, and I am so ready to be done. I get so tired during the day.


Jo-Mama - Tuesday, 15 Jan
I had big hips and a bubble butt before pregnancy, so there's not much of a change for me. I look the same, except for the basketball belly I'm sporting.


jenniferh - Tuesday, 15 Jan
You puppy is so cute! Do you think its going to be jealous when the baby is born? Thats my biggest fear. I have a chihuahua, shes pretty much our baby right now. I'm hoping shes ok when the baby comes. And advise?


jessica20 - Saturday, 12 Jan
congrats on ur baby boy!! not to much longer to go.. :):) how are u feeling?


hennessey631 - Saturday, 12 Jan
Hi, my little girl is so low I have a problem walking when i get up from sitting down. I have to go to the bathroom an awful lot, so im guessing she is on my bladder. but who knows. the pressure for me is the worst! on a brighter note congrats on your pregnancy!!!


mommytobe20 - Saturday, 12 Jan
Yea I noticed for like the last week or so she is always on the left of my stomach & she never really seems to move to the other side. It feels so weird.


jessy613 - Friday, 11 Jan
hi, yeah my baby is pretty low, i see all these pregnant women and it looks like they are carrying their babies in their rib cages! mine is very very low, andi have a gap from my chest to my belly :) but my mom held really low with all her pregnancies.


vira - Thursday, 10 Jan
hi, well my first one i ended up getting an epidural cause being my first i thought i would die, crazy me. but with my second i said no i will have him natural and it really was not that bad. i got to the hospital at 7cm and i got there at 11 and had him by 1. And i LOVED the experience. i really felt so special that i regret not having a natural one for my first, the pain well its pain but at the same time u get to feel ur baby move aroung till the end and you are not all drugged when they hand him/her to you and ur emotions arent all frozen. so i would advice natural if u are trying for the whole experience you will love it and the pain well it does go away:) hope this helps


babyoneG - Wednesday, 9 Jan
I have not had any cravings either. I am gaining weight (normally) but I don't feel like I am eating that much differently. I don't really feel hungry any more than before I was pregnant. I think it is different for everyone.


karol - Wednesday, 9 Jan
congrats it really is a wonderful thing. This is my second one, and another boy at that. I will be having a C-section in 5-weeks. Yah


shashi - Monday, 7 Jan
Make sure you don't eat because my doc said I could and I failed the first one. Then I had to take a 3 hour test NOT FUN. I was just over the number and if I had fasting I know I would have passed. You should not have to take the day off. It is a short test but if you want the day off -take it! The drink taste like a sunkist orange soda.


jenn1022 - Monday, 7 Jan
The test takes an hour. You need to go in early because your not supposed to eat anything from midnight. I was tired afterwards. Good luck with everything!!


first-time-mami - Thursday, 3 Jan
heart burn KILLS me at night time! rolaids are my best friend! hahaha


whitneyc - Thursday, 3 Jan
Heartburn has been getting me pretty bad the past few days too. I had a hard time falling asleep last night because of it. I had never had heartburn before until I was pregnant. I hate it!


momat31 - Thursday, 3 Jan
I'm feeling acid reflux very often and have had to spend several nights sleeping sitting up b/c it will come back up into my mouth. It's totally miserable. It has been my worst symptom thus far!


spoiledlil***** - Tuesday, 1 Jan
