Cody's momma

My son is 16 days old. For the last week all he wants is to sleep in his bouncy. He doens't care if vibration is on or not. You lay him in bed or the bassinet and he screams bloody murder. We even tried propping him up some in bed and watched him and he still only wants the bouncy. Any ideas on how to get him switched out of it. Or is it ok? We just buckle him in and put him in his crib in the bouncy. And keep an eye on him. But as he gets bigger, I dont' know what to do. Thanks for any ideas!

I am 35 wks 5 days pregnant and my baby dropped, and now the pressure on my tailbone is excrutiating. Just wondering if anyone else had this and how to cope. My OB said tylenol, avoiding sitting for long periods of time and having my hubby rub my lower back to try to help. But I was just wondering if anyone else had any other helpful tips. Thanks!!

I have a call into my OB and waiting on his call. But I am 35 wks 3 days pregnant and have felt crappy all day. Hot and cold flashes, but no fever. I have very faint spotting 3 times today when I wiped after going to the bathroom. And my braxton hicks are on and off with no rhythm. But now its in my back really bad, to the point my heart feels like it is coming out my back. My blood pressure according to my machine has been 130/82. And it was lower earlier. But I was just wondering if anyone had a clue what was going on. I am going nuts waiting on the doctor to call back. Thanks.

I am getting my RhoGam shot next week, and was just wondering if anyone had any side effects. I am just curious. I know my doctor will tell me about them, but just wondering if anyone did have any. Thank you!

I was just wondering. I have had 2 previous miscarriages. 1 I bled out and the other I had a D&C. But now I am 23 weeks pregnant and going good. My question is, is labor like having a miscarriage? Well minus pushing out the baby and joy at the end. The cramping/contractions of miscarriage, is that like labor pains? I am just curious. If not, no problem, I am so ready for this little boy to come into our lives, and am ready for anything.

i am 21 wks 4 days pregnant and haven't really been outside to much that I needed to worry. But we are going away this weekend to my husbands family reunion. And I was just wondering what is the safest bug spray, if any I can use. And Sunscreen, what is the best. I just worry about chemicals, and last minute thought of it, so to late to call my doctor. Thanks!

Hello, I am 20 weeks 2 days pregnant with a little boy. Seen him on Monday. I was just wondering. I can feel him even more now, and I get some light cramping every now and then, nothign major. I was just wondering if anyone else had this. My OB said it was between activeness and growing and everyone was ok. but just wondering if anyone else experienced this. Thanks

I have a bulged disc in my neck, they found it just when I found out I was pregnant. I am now 19 weeks pregnant and can't take the pain anymore. It subsided but came back. But my chiropractor gave me biofreeze and said it was ok to use. He said his wife used it when pregnant and he has given it to other pregnant woman. I was just wondering if anyone else had experience with it. Regular tylenol just doesn't cut it.

I am 18wks 2 days along and just wondering if anyone else just has sluggish periods. I think it's due to the baby having a growth spurt, I have started feeling him/her more and just hoping it's due to growth spurts. I got a week or two and feel good, and then for a week I just want to sleep and feel exhausted no matter what. I forgot to ask my OB the last time I seen him. But everything is well, and I see him adn have my 20 week ultrasould on the 7th, so just over a week. But just curious if this is something familiar. Thanks!!

I think I have a UTI and I am 15 weeks 2 days pregnant. I have some burnign when I pee, darker than normal urine and some cramping. My doctor is gone til Monday, in which I have my 16 week appointment with him monday morning. I just called his backup, and he told me to it was ok to wait til I see my doctor on Monday. I am just paranoid and don't know if I should wait or go to the ER? Maybe wait til mornign see how I feel and then decide.

I am fighting allergies really bad since I got pregnant. I am 14w 5 days and calling the doctor tomorrow. I was trying to hold off, since I see him in another week. But does anyone have any safe remedies for allergy relief? I am lotioning my itchy legs and arms and blowing my nose all the time.

I was just wondering if any other overweight ladies had dopplers and when they could hear the heartbeat with it. I am 13 weeks 4 days along and can't hear it yet. I carry my most weight in my lower abdomen. The doctor couldn't hear it in the office last week, but we did an ultrasound and everything is great. Baby's heart rate was 188. but just wondering how long it took anyone else. I know it says if you are overweight it takes longer. I will just keep trying once a week til I hear it!!

I am 8 weeks pregnant. And last week it was my left leg, this week my right. I get muscular cramps in my inner upper thighs and right up to my vagina. It is nerve racking. I have heard of this happening in later weeks, but I am only 8 weeks 3 days. Is this normal? OB wasn't to worried, said it's ligaments stretching and things settling making room for growing uterus.

I am 6 weeks 4 days along and my OB isnt' in today, I left a message. I am on progesterone suppositories. But yesterday my tummy is really tender and touchy and I am having light cramping in the middle/upper abdomen. Inbetween my bellybutton and pelvic. I was just wondering if this is ligament stretching/growing? After 2 miscarriages I am very paranoid over everything. No spotting, not major cramps, just light ones you know are there. And the tenderness. any suggestions or anyone experience this? Thanks a ton!

I am on progesterone suppositories. The pharmacy told me to keep them refridgerated and my OB said that once they are set, then they can be left out room temperature. So I don't know if I should keep them in or out of the refridgerator. I am keeping them in there, afraid something will happen if I don't. But can anyone tell me if they have to be, or if they had them in or out of the refridge? Thank you so much..

Ok, any suggestions to help with constipation??? I am 5 wks 3 days and need some help. Plumstart was helping me til I got put on the prenate vitamins. Help... LOL

Well I am 28. After 6 years of marriage my husband and I sought out fertility help. We got pregnant twice on clomid and lost both, one at 12 wks and the other at 7wks.

Here it is a year and a half after the 2nd loss and we find out we are pregnant for the third time. No fertility, we did it on our own. But I should be 5 weeks if you go off last AF, but blood work says 3 weeks. So ok. But I popped the home pregnancy test at 2 weeks. Been to the doctor twice.

I started spotting and having horrible cramps right after I popped the HPT. See the doctor again in 2 days. Am I trying to miscarry again? Am I just having unusual symptoms. It's just pink spotting and only about 1/3 of the time I wipe, never on my underwear. The cramps started on the left side, then the right, now in the middle. I feel bloated and heaviness like I did the last times. And also only my left breast is sore. My hcg was 134 and two days later was 233, so doc was happy. But so worried.

My mother in law is very sick and isn't doing well. She has no money, and we have barely enough to survive. When she passes, who has to pay for her burial. If it is us, we can't afford it, and our credit is poor, due to my poor health, so we can't loan out any money. Does anyone know an answer or suggestion for help? Thanks
