Great!

TCOYF is an excellent book!!

As another data point - in both my pregnancies, when it came time to deliver, I didn't even think of it - I didn't pay attention to it - I just did what came naturally, and can't really remember if I held my breath or not. I just ... pushed and nobody really said anything by way of 'advice'...

I disliked this book Vicki is NOT a medical professional, nor is she educated in exercise physiology, etc. In other words, she is NOT qualified to make the statement she does about exercise.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing with us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you!! So Erik will be 28 mos old when the baby comes? A good age!!! CONGRATS!!!!! Leela

I always looked small. My term daughter is 5 lbs 1 oz (birth wt). Just remember - there is a wide range of normal!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First babies are so special!!

Congrats!!!!!!! So many of us post partum at the same time. We should have a post partum checkin. I'm ready to start working out NOW (9 days PP), but have been warned to take it easy (had pre-eclampsia). Sigh. I hate waiting.

CONGRATULATIONS! She is beautiful!

Congrats And i'm not sure the period of anxiety ever ends... it just transmutes. But I hear ya. The 'no symptom' phase is VERY stressful. Leela

Thank you all for your kind responses! We are having a blast. This is so easy the second time around. This is my last baby, and I'm really just enjoying her. I'm looking forward to exercising again as soon as I get the go ahead - feel great, but with the pre-eclampsia, have to take it easy. I...

ROTFL!! :-) I thought of you!! My friend Kris is also due before me in august, and told me I had to wait .. heh heh heh. Anyway - Thurs night, was fortunate to recognize labor starting in the form of mild recurrent (20 min apart) back cramps. Late thursday, found traces of show (not like...

I'm still pregnant :-) and I know what you mean about feeling lousy Hi! I've had an easy last trimester so far, but this week is really uncomfortable. Ended up at L&D friday because I was contracting (I wasn't worried - they weren't labor-like - they felt like bhx, but I went to the drs to do...

I heard my first's at 10 weeks, and this baby's wasn't audible at 13! And it wasn't 'maternal fat' related either. The placenta placement, coupled with the baby placement made it impossible to detect via doppler so they did an impromptu u/s. I just wanted to reassure you that at 13 wks, I...

Hi! I'm 35.5 weeks now , and I feel great. Except for the itchy skin (bile salts in my skin. Happened llast time too.) But I can manage that. Sometimes I have to take an antihistamine to sleep (to cut on the edge of the itching), but mostly i'm fine.. and it isn't like this every day. I'm days...

For me, all-day-sickness kicked in at 7 wks past ovulation :-) CONGRATS !!!!!

Congrats on your little girl !!!! And you know - I could still end up over due :-). Actually, i'm nervous about next week... that is when Anjali was born (36 wks). I have to get my project done at work (on target, so not a big deal). But last weekend, I was a whirlwind of activity - cleaning...

Almost past that nausea point! Sorry about the wt issue. But mostly the important thing is you take care of what you need - including eating to stave off nausea! >eat, the dizziness goes away, >but then the nausea hits! > You just can't win. Yick. I hate the first trimester! 13 weeks -...

Yay! >is so encouraging to know >that I'm not alone! Absolutely! Reading your post was comforting too! It is really hard to get back in the groove. Even with a supportive spouse, etc - it just is hard! >(due in 1/02) and I >don't see myself getting back >into that groove until after...
