Thanks everyone for your well wishes. I ended up back once again in L&D yesterday with more contractions. I had just seen my OB that morning, and she had told us that if more happened there were more routes to take, so I didn't feel as overwhelmed going in to the hospital. Though 4 trips from...

Update: So I guess 2 trips to the L&D wasn't enough. I went again last night with more contractions...sigh. I was contracting so long, like 5 mins, they'd release for 30-60 sec and contract back up again. They monitored me again, and ended up increasing my dosage of the meds I'm on. Once they...

Nope I had no clue - guess pregnancy always keeps you on your toes.

Well I've been having BH's off and on for about 2 weeks now. But last night they got much worse. I had a couple during the day, and then went in for my OB appt of all things, and told her about them. She said if they got worse or frequent w/in an hour's time to come in to the L&D. So I left and...

In muscle growth, stretch marks are common. I am willing to bet as you are toning down, your muscles are growing and pulling in other directions than they have ever before, causing stretch marks. I don't know how to stop it, but I would rather have stretch marks than flab! This comes from a...

Well now that DH is giving up meat I have to replace some of my tried and true/quick meat meals with vegetarian meals. I have two cookbooks that I like and wondered if someone could refer me to some others. Here is what I have...

RE: Hey Mel Ok you gals are KILLING ME!!! I've never heard someone ponder if Jesus has a 6 pack or not! To funny! I think since He's God - He would have an 8 pack ;-)

BC/ME is my next buy - so that's my rec:-)

My tight butt :-( - I miss going heavy with lower weights and running, they had done awesome things for my hips and backside. Now that definition is um softer. Oh well that's the way it goes. My body can't keep that tightness without intensive work so it's gone for now, but not forgotten ;-)

Ruppie if you figure out when you are ovulating it makes things like drinking much easier to figure out when is ok and not. If you chart and you have a 28 day cycle, and ovulate on say the 14th, then you could safely drink until the 14th. The egg gets dropped on the 14th and the time frame...

Why could you still miscarry? I don't understand. Did you have complications in this pregnancy? It's hard to stop but your muscles will have "muscle memory" and it will take much less time to get back in shape than one who has never worked out. Good luck and let us know how you are feeling.

Yep - count me! I have worked out most weeks in this pregnancy even if only 2 times, but there have been a few weeks where I did nothing. I was on exercise restriction from 6-8 wks due to some bleeding - but even if I hadn't been there is NO way I could have worked out. I barely could stay up...

oh, my dr said that if I had 4-6 bh in an hour to call her to make sure I wasn't progressing, are you having that many?

then I suggest you ask for a second opinion: I second this. But I wouldn't go for it (exercise) until you got a second oppinion. Doctors go through years of schooling and residency for a reason - to be better educated than us lay people. It does sound like more of a precaution thing, but...

Wow, I hope all goes well. Let us know how the amnio goes.
