I'm glad... ...that we all can share our opinions here. Really. I admit that I'm a tad sensitive on this issue and I'm sorry if any of this thread got out of hand. I realize the only thing you can do is follow your heart when raising your baby. Therein lies the problem...if I follow my...

I respect... ...everyone's opinion and I struggled a great deal about the crying it out issue. But trust me, I never let him cry alone in his room for even more than a few minutes. I stay by his crib and pat his back, sing to him and comfort him any way that I can, just without picking him...

Thank you all... ...for sharing your stories. It's so nice to know that I'm not alone. Nathan is doing MUCH, MUCH better. The first two nights were sheer torture, the next...pretty painful, but by the fourth night he whimpered for 2 minutes, fell asleep and stayed asleep through the night...

Alright fellow mommies...I'm at the end of my rope. My sweet baby boy Nathan is 5 months old and still up SEVERAL times a night. I know he's not hungry, wet or sick...he's just awake and vying for some attention and assistance in getting back to sleep. Unfortunately, he was a pretty colicky...

Cathe, thank you so much for responding to my previous post. I am always so touched that you take the time to write to us in such a warm and candid way. It's nice to know that you are right there with us, experiencing some of the same things. I hope you are getting used to being back at work...

I'm finally back on the message boards after several months at home with my new baby boy, Nathan. It's been fun to catch up with everyone's news...especially Cathe's new baby! Congratulations on your new bundle of joy! I hope everyone is doing well. Nate is a very happy little lad and we are...

Don't worry Renae... ...it's ALL worth it. Even if they had to pull Nate out of my nose it would have been worth it. You'll be amazed. Best of luck to you.

Dear friends, I finally gave birth last Monday night (1/28) at 8:10 p.m. to a 7.1 oz., 19 1/2" boy, Nathan Thomas. We are home and getting settled and I have just a few minutes (or seconds) to let you all know that we are doing well. Nate is happy (most of the time), adapting to the real...

Just returned from the doctor's office. They performed a non-stress test and found that the baby is doing "beautifully". He must be enjoying himself in there because he's not even close to coming out. The doctor did an internal and there has been no change in my cervix. Not exactly what I...

Hi again... ...well, I've been walking as much as I can manage though it's quite uncomfortable. If nothing else, it helps to keep me active and clear my head. I haven't tried the sex thing...for the same reasons you mention, but I told my husband that tonight's the night...and tomorrow...

I feel your pain! I am 40 weeks and miserable pretty much describes me too! I had a doctor's appointment this morning and I'm not progressing at all, except that my cervix has "thinned out" a little. Doctor said it could happen any day...or within the next two weeks. So much for an accurate...

Finally, I'm in week 40 and praying that this baby makes his big debut soon. I never in a million years thought the wait would be this difficult towards the end. Anyway, my question is this... What does it mean to have your "membranes stripped" and does it always bring about labor? Please...

I can RELATE! I'm 37 weeks and have been experiencing that pubic bone pain for a while now. I don't have much in terms of a solution...my doc said it's just something that pregnant women have to contend with sometimes. Just wanted you to know that I sympathize. Stick with the low impact...

...on a really great nursing bra. Anyone have suggestions???

Thanks... ...for all the support, sympathy and kind advice. It's amazing how much better I feel just knowing that other people have gone through this and can relate. I just did some of my Xmas shopping online, which will help and I managed to snag a parking spot underneath my office, which is...

It's been a while since I've posted and I'm sorry that my first message in a while is such a downer. I hope everyone is doing well. I need a little advice please! I'm in my 34th week and really feeling a lot of pain right above my pubic bone. When I get up from a seated position, walk, or...

How wonderful! Congratulations Cathe! You must be excited...it makes it so "real" once you know the sex. My husband has a brother and they are best friends. It must be nice to know that you are giving little Eric a baby brother to bond with. You are going to be one busy lady!!!! (Not that...

Wonderful news! How exciting that you now know the sex of your baby. I remember you were very anxious to find out. Michaela is beautiful and I agree with Debbie...Renae is a great middle name! Good luck.

You sound exactly like me... Even the heading of our posts are nearly identical. Check it out...http://64.225.138.194/dcforum/FitMoms/345.html I'm in my 7th month. Good luck. I'm crossing my fingers for you. Hope to hear your good news on this forum soon.

Love the name Katie... ...in fact it was one of our choices we were to have a girl. Unfortunately, we still don't have a name for our little guy due in January. It's a lot tougher than I thought!! Katie is perfect!
