My profile

My husband and I are expecting our first baby and we are very excited and nervous. We are having a homebirth and we love our midwives. They are great and I'm oddly even looking forward to labor. I know it'll be hard work but in the end I'll get a chance to meet the little guy that's been punching me, giving me sleepless nights and sending me to the bathroom more often than I expected.

The pregnancy was a good surprise for us. We've been together for 10 years now so this little one is definitely going to change things up for us. I'm due August 7th, live in Oakland CA and I work in Education (at least for a couple more weeks). Only a few weeks left! Yea....

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

Hey, Yeah it is still pretty bad. I'll have to check into that and see what I have around here. My mom is a massage therapist but I have to go to her friend to get a massage because she is certified in prenatal.

I've noticed a big part of the problem is more mental than anything. LIke if I am upset or anything I dwell on them. Gotta work on that! Thanks for checking in on me and I'll let you know about the acupunctor! I'm glad it helped you!

Hey,
I am sorry to hear you feel so rough.
We were in Mexico City but just moved back to California where we will be for the next 3 years. My husband works here. I am from the UK and he is from Mexico City.
Where abouts are you?

I'm having the same sleep issues... I noticed when I work out like 5 hours before I go to bed it helps a little. But basically nothing is really helping. Just wanted to show some support!

nayster01 - Sunday, 8 June
Thanks for the advice.
The insomnia has been for a week. Its weird, I sometimes read things on here and people experience them at exactly the same time although I dont have any colostum leaking-Thank God!!!!!
My legs feel like lead weights at the mo but I wil walk more as you suggested.
Thanks again and take care xoxoxo

The main thing to remember is that every baby is its own just like every person is different. 120's is still not bad, it just may be her/his normal rate. However if they feel its heartrate is low, they will watch it. Try not to stress, hehe! This is my third and I still stress, its a natural mom thing :o)

MamaMirage - Thursday, 24 April
Yeah the heartrate dropping is normal! My daughter's heartrate was slower and slower every appointment. My son's however has stayed the same the entire time so far. It's normal either way. Congrats on the pregnancy!

I worried about the dropping hearbeats too... they went from 167...to 157.... to 145. In just a few visits. I was told as long as they stay within the 120-180 range its normal :)

Hello, I saw your post about the heart rate and it IS perfectly normal for the heart beat to slow down around 25wks and there-after. The parasympathetic kicks in and starts working, which causes the regulation of the heart rate. Hope that helps ya feel better! Best of luck to you!
