I find that the double jogging strollers sell incredibly fast on craigslist.org It is a local (if there is a site available to your area) classified listing and is free...you can stipulate pick-up only, or delivery within so many miles. It is not an auction site, you simply name the price, and...

I bought a stroller off of Walmart.com it was $179 plus a 4.97 shipping, it is an In-Step Safari TT double jogging stroller that has an optional swivel front wheel that makes it easier to manuever in stores...you can lock it in place to jog or walk. I LOVE IT!!!!

Hmm... it will be interesting to read other responses... for me, growing up in a 2 child household, I always wanted a bigger family, with more brothers and maybe a sister or two. I do enjoy being pregnant but that is not the reason. I now have 3 girls and think maybe we'll have one more (I...

I feel for you...I was 5 days late with this third one... 4 days early with the first and 2 weeks early with the second...I thought for sure I'd be early with this one too... My midwife had just scheduled me for an induction the next week if I didn't go into labor on my own, but I guess I...

RE: Who is next??? What month are your beautiful babies... Due May 7...though I have a feeling it will be at the end of April... my second was 2 weeks early! and my first has a birthday April 20th!

I like Your Pregnancy Week By Week... I like reading more often than once a month and it also breaks down the weeks into trimesters...so it's easier to keep track!

I had my 2nd baby with a certified nurse midwife and it was great! She was there almost all during my labor, rubbed my feet, told me I was doing great, and gave me suggestions... I don't know anything about lay-midwifes or other "non-certified"... I just know that my insurance will only...

Thanks!!!

This may be a silly, ignorant question, but what exactly is a "level 2" ultrasound? I've had several throughout my three pregnancies and have never heard this term before

I am 21 weeks pregnant and want to begin working out again after a 4 month hiatus...due to morning sickness and fatigue should I begin as a beginner, or try to start close to where I was when I stopped? I was an intermediate exerciser 5-6 x's a week.

WOw.. My first experience sucked too...it was at a hospital with a normal regular tech...not necessarily pregnant related...he spent all day looking at all sorts of stuff...I eventually had to pee...he said my bladder was too full... then every time after that I was sent to a...

RE: I posted below about So sorry to hear about your loss... hope you start feeling better soon.

Sorry you're having such a hard time... It took me about 6 weeks before I really felt comfortable breastfeeding and wanted to quit the whole time, but I am SOOOO glad I didn't stop. Any breast milk is better than none at all...you've given you're daughter a great start and should not feel...

GOOD LUCK!!! I sure hope you join the ranks of mommy-hood once again! Relax... Leslie

Lisa really said it well, though I will tell you about mine too... First of all "Birthing From Within" was a real lifesaver!!! It gave me such peace of mind before my first child. It really helped calm me and quell some fears I had! I only had about an 8 hour labor my first two...
