    Front carrier for mom's with bad backs?

    Yes, definitely let us know about the Trekker. I may be able to get one if she sells them for 1/2 price. I'm still struggling with the Babyhawk.

    Front carrier for mom's with bad backs?

    Steph, The Trekker looks nice--I'll consider it if I can not make the Baby hawk work for us. Is it that you like that you can wear the baby facing out on your back with the Trekker and not with the Ergo? The Trekker looks like a low sitting position much like the Ergo. I should have...

    Front carrier for mom's with bad backs?

    Hello all. So, I got my Babyhawk carrier about a week and a half ago. I have had a chance to practice using it some, but not a ton yet. So far, I am very frustrated with it. I find it really difficult to get the baby onto my back without feeling like I am going to drop her (same goes...

    Front carrier for mom's with bad backs?

    Has anyone tried the Babyhawk? I am waiting for mine to arrive. I guess its similar to the Ergo. Just curious how anyone found the Babyhawk to work.

    Pregnancy rash? Maybe TMI...

    It sounds like PUPPS (red, itchy rash of pregnancy). I forget what it stands for, but I developed it at 39 weeks and it was horribly itchy and annoying. My OB said to use Avenno with Menthol, which helped some. The key was not itching it, which only made it worse. The cure is delivery, but I...

    Getting Fustrated

    Melissa, I am in the exact same predicament! I was due on 12/2 (this past Sunday) and as of yesterday, I have not dilated beyond "fingertip". Supposedly my cervix is thinning a bit. I have also continued to work, and by the time I get home with my 20-month old, it's all I can do to feed...

    Need advice...child sleeping problems!

    Robin, I feel for you! How tough sleeping issues can be. If it were me, I'd just nurse her and let her fall back to sleep, even if she will only go back to sleep for an hour. That way, you will get more sleep if you are only up with her for 5-10 minutes, rather than listening to her scream...

    Newly pregnant

    Hi Annette, Welcome! We have practically the same age kids. I have a 15-month old, and I am due on 12/2 with #2! Pretty cool. Are you going to find out during your ultrasound if it's a boy or a girl?

    Need Encouragement, Breastfeeding

    Suzanne, Sorry it took me so long to see your post. I'm an infrequent lurker these days! I can relate to your problems with jaundice and pressure from doctors, nurses to give formula. I think you have received some good advice from the ladies. I relied heavily on the hospital's...

    coffee/tea

    Hi, I found that the morning sickness caused me not to want coffee anymore, so I didn't have any trouble quitting (but I only drank 1 big cup in the morning anyway).
