Thanks, everyone, for making my day! But honestly, *everyone* who battles BC is strong. It isn't like you have a choice! The *choice* is did have was to get fit after chemo. I wanted nothing more than to hunker down with a bottle of wine and a bag of Reeses for days on end... But, when...

... what in the world I've been doing to get back so quickly from chemo! I had a HUUUUGE smile on my face yesterday when I met with him! He was floored when I showed him how I could now do push-ups (on my toes!!!) despite having had a bilateral mastectomy! (I dropped right in the exam room for...

I had to buy them before my 1st trimester was over... I had to get another couple just last week too! Michele 35 weeks

I went on a couple of walks. I also had some nasty contractions... Went to the OB Thurs and was told that I'm 1cm dialted and that the baby "could come anytime". My 1st was a 35 weeker... In any event, most of my spare time is spent cleaning, etc. I'm still working too... I hope that...

Sandra, I can't offer any advice regarding your bleeding but I *can* sympathize with you about bed rest. W/ my 1st I was on bed rest from weeks 33-35 (delivered @ 35 weeks) for preeclampsia. W/ my 2nd I was on "modified" bed rest starting ~ week 25 and continuing 'till week 35 (delivered @ week...
