I rescued my paint mare last Sept. She was already about 100lbs underweight then. She started picking up weight, then as winter hit, started loosing again. Now she is around 200lbs under weight. We've had the vets out regularly checking on her. They've done blood work, check ups and she is wormed on a regular basis with Equi-Max. She gets 3lbs Safechoice and 2lbs Empower(supplement), she also gets free choice hay. We had a vet out about a month ago, and said if she didn't start picking up weight in a month to call him back. Well. Its a month later and NO weight changes. I will be calling them tomorrow, but does anyone have any other suggestions for me to try with her? She is between the ages of 3 and 4, she has not been worked at all since she came to our farm last Sept. We feed her separate from the other 4 horses, so we know she is getting all of her food. Im so lost at what to do with her!

My lil boy just turned 4 weeks today. He has the worst habit though already!. He wakes up about midnight and screams and cries until 3am. Does anyone have any suggestions of what to do to help me out with this problem.? Its like clock work everynight.

Ive tried feeding him more, giving him gas drops, changing him, swaddling him. Nothing seems to work until 3am then he quiets down and goes back to bed. Does anyone have any suggestions that helped them out!

Im 39 weeks, 2 weeks ago I lost my mucus plug over the course of 2 days.

Wed when I went to the dr he swept my membranes, now today and last night I lost more mucus except it wasnt clear like the first time.. this time it was tinged with brown. Ive read on a lot of websites and some books that I have that this is my bloody show. But when I got on yahoo answers and searched for this question some women said that you have to be bleeding red blood!?!

So can someone help me out (before I call the dr) and let me know if this is my bloody show! They say labor can start now, up to hrs, up to a couple days. So should I start getting my bag packed!?

I am 38 weeks pregnant and have a drs appointment tomorrow. If he decides to schedule an induction should i ask him to go ahead and call red cross and let them know of the induction so maybe my husband will be able to come home in time for the birth?!

What should I do!? Need suggestions.

I am going to be 39 weeks on Friday and was wondering what my chances are on the dr inducing me next week sometime. Besides being very uncomfortable and swelling feet/ankles, I am having a normal healthy pregnancy.

Did you have a normal healthy pregnancy and were induced before 40 weeks?

I bought a breast pump today, but now Im nervous that I didnt buy the right one.

I was stuck between the Playtex Embrace and the Medela Pump in Style original, not advance. So I went to Babies R Us to look and see what they had. All they had was the Medelas, no Playtex, so I went ahead and bought the Medela. Now Im contemplating on whether to take it back and get the Playtex Embrace off of the Playtex website.

I need opinons!! Should I just keep the Medela and not worry about the Playtex!>? The one major thing I liked best about the Playtex was the silicone shields they have in the cups. Im so torn on what to do and need some advice!

Thanks!

By the way I have not had my baby yet if you are wondering!

My sister in law and I were due a week apart from each other middle of December.. Well I get a txt last night saying she is in labor and is at the hospital. The nurses were going to call the Dr to see if she should stay or not because she was only 3cm. So I told her or someone that was with her to call me back and let me know if she was going to stay because I wanted to be there, since I was at the hospital for her last birth. I didnt hear anything all night until this morning, when I get a picture message of her baby!!!! They never once bothered to call me and let me know she stayed or was pushing or anything. This is really upsetting to me since I know if that was me I wouldve called them and asked them to come to the hospital.

So am I overreacting or would you be just as upset as I am?

Im 37 weeks pregnant and am across the country from my husband. (He is in Cali & Im in Ohio with family to have the baby).

He was told by his S.Sgt to have me tell my Dr. when I go into labor and am at the hospital to call Red Cross and they will get ahold of my husband somehow so he can come home, hopefully for the birth.

My question is, is there anything specific I will need to know to tell my Dr. so he can tell Red Cross to make sure to get ahold of my Husband. Has any other women went through this process!? I need some advice. Thank You!

He is in the Marines if that makes a difference.

I am 36 weeks today, I just got back from the drs a little while ago. I am 2cm dialated already! and 80% thinned. I forgot to ask him if he thought I would go early or stay on schedule. He also swiped my membranes a little he said. Sooo Id like to hear your stories and opinions if you think I will go early or not!

Plus the baby is heads down and a healthy 6lbs! Thank you in advance.

I am almost 6 months pregnant and have had a very good pregnancy besides one thing. ACNE. Its not extremely bad like all over my face, it just seems to come up bad on my chin. Its very red, dry and irritated. I use rubbing alcohol on it but that seems to just irritate it more. Does any one that is pregnant or was pregnant have any suggestions I can use that worked for them!? Anything would help =] besides rude comments.

Thank You!!

My husband is in the marines. He is an E3.

We are expecting our first child in Dec. I was wanting to know if his pay rate will increase like it did when we get married or does it just stay the same?.

Thanks for your answers!

My husband is in the Marines and we have TriCare health insurance (I didnt know if all military has the same insurance).. Do you know if they will pay for a 3d/4d ultrasound? If they do, do you have to be recommended by your Dr.

Thanks in Advance for your answers!!

Im 20 weeks tomorow!

Im 18 weeks pregg! =] We go Aug 4th for my 20 week scan and should find out what were having then!. But I was just wondering what people thought about our baby names.

If the baby is a boy his name will be Bryce Owen. If the baby is a girl it will be Jayden Leigh!

So give me some opinions if you like them or not!

Our last names Tolliver if you wanted to know.

I am 17 weeks almost 18 and I decided not to do the testing for down syndrome and cystic fibrosis, but now I kind of feel like Im a bad parent for not seeing if my baby could have a disease or birth defect.. But at the same time I couldnt terminate my pregnancy if there was something wrong... has anyone else decided not to test and whats your thoughts on it?.. I guess I just need some comforting from some other parents.

Im 13 wks 2days pregnant and its still comfortable for me to lay on my stomach.. .I just dont know if its good for the baby. Im going to the drs wed, I would just like to know in advance if anyone knows.. Thanks!

How far along did they tell you you had to be before you stopped flying? I just found out I am pregnant and Im leaving for ohio the end of the month. I havnt been to the dr yet or I would ask him... Thanks in advance.!

My periods arnt normal, but I have one every month. I usually have that time of the month around the 15th or 16th. But it can vary. Well now its the end of the month and No period. I have had some cramps but thats it, Just cramps. The only kind of discharge I have had is completly clear. Im going to take a pregnancy test, but just want to know what you all think.

Either way, pregnant or not, Im going to be happy. =]

My American Bulldog will be 6 months old next month and I was wondering if there were any signs that might let me know when she is going to start.

**We are going to get her fixed so dont give me negative comments about that. We are just waiting for the extra money.

Thanks for the help in advance!
