    Please help transition this runner to Cathe

    I used to be a 6 day a week Cathe addict. Some how 4-5 years ago I quit and started running. I have been running 6miles a day 5 days a week since. I add push ups and squats afterwards. I’m 44. I got the flu at the beginning of February and I have never been so sick. I quit running for 3 weeks...

    follow up to c-section post

    I agree with Karen, by the time my 6 week check up with both csections I was back to moderate activity, not really any heavy lifting over 10 lbs, and not hard core abs, just beginning to get back to abs. I was 3 weeks out of surgery before I tried anything at all, but then it just got better...

    TTC/Preg Check in July 15th

    I am laughing as I read these posts. My ds is streaking through the house naked. He is 4. He prefers never to wear a shirt. I have 4 sisters and I am completely out of my element with these little men. I asked him why he doesn't have a shirt on, he says because he is a boy. Maggie-sorry...

    I got sidetracked and wasn't finished posting! Stephanie-3 hours of walking is awesome! I wish I could do that! You need to rest up! Kate-yes, you should be fine in casual contact as long as everyone is feeling well. Zoster viruses(like varicella)love immunity depleted bodies! That's why...

    Morning! Just a quick minute before I head out to work. Hope everyone had a great weekend! Kate-Please don't worry about the girls in the little bikinis. they probably look at you and think when they are pregnant that they would like to look half as good! Shingles is caused by the same virus...

    TTC/Preg Check in July 13th

    Hi, good afternoon. I have been out in the yard pulling weeds all morning and thought I would stop for a popcicle and check in, before I give my self heat stroke. Maggie-35 weeks, so if you ask for an early induction would your doc do 38 or 39 weeks? I personally think you have paid your dues...

    Does anyone take Nexium?

    I took Nexium for 6 months after the diagosis of a hiatal hernia and a stomach ulcer. I took a round of antibiotics for the ulcer and started prevacid for the hernia and ulcer. The hernia reduced itself,though the ulcer persisted for months until the switched me to Nexium. I took that for 6...

    Anyone else going through IVF?

    I didn't do Ivf but we did use clomid with sucsess after a 4 year infertility stretch (we are due in Jan.). There is a website www.resolve.org which I found to be an excellent source of information and support. Good luck to you!:-)

    TTC or Preg *** July 10

    It wasn't me, but if it is kickboxing let me know if you find out. I think kickboxing while pregnant is the easiest on my body. I did taebo and it really was good. Stretches your back out or something.

    bouncy seat

    I asked my friend who has a 4 month old. She highly recommended the graco. In fact she is still very much using it. In my experience my kids stopped liking it around 3 months so it must be good.
