I am early in my pregnancy and have experienced some light cramping is it normal to feel these. With my daughter I dont remember getting them, but that pregnancy was High Risk so my mind was on other things. Has anyone else experienced cramps during early pregnancy? If so what can I do to relieve them?

This morning I made Finnish pancakes (they are baked in the oven). I forgot to put them in the refrigerator until several hours later. Then, I got hungry, opened the fridge, forgot the pancakes had been sitting out for hours, and ate some. I am 38 weeks pregnant. These pancakes contain eggs. Could I have hurt my baby? Maybe I'm being paranoid, but I'm worried. Thanks so much.

I am 4 weeks, 12 days pregnant. Why have I been having a light & brownish discharge for about 3 days now? This isn't a miscarriage or a sign of anything else, is it?

Any ideas?

I already know the following: go to second hand stores, use ebay, sew your own crib skirt / bumper pad, and research.

I had a sonogram test yesterday being 11 weeks and 6 days along. The doctor said she was pretty sure (80%) that the baby was a girl. It seems to me that it is a bit early to tell although it was a high-quality equipment. How accurate might be this prediction? Did any of you had an accurate result that early?

P.S I really wanted the first one to be a boy....

We are on a GREAT schedule! Up at 7 nap from 8-10, nurse back to sleep at 11:30-12 up at 1PM nurse, back to sleep at 2:30 til' 4PM nurse then maybe a cat nap 40 mins about 6 then we start the whole bath/sleep routine. Here lately he seems to want to drop the last nap but I think the 45 mins. helps not be so grumpy. Should I keep him up longer in the AM and just go to 2 naps a day? I thought only 2 naps per day when they hit 6 months?afternoon

my son is almost 3 and we are starting to potty train.

he never tells me when he has to go, he always tells me when it's too late. when i sit him on the pot, he goes every single time.

How do i get him to tell me that he needs to go before he actually does??

thanks!

Hi, I'm waiting to take a blood test but was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar. My periods arrive like clockwork every 29 days. This month I had cramping and dark brown spotting a week before my period. I am 3 days late, have taken 2 hpt's both negative. I feel some bloating and get the feeling my period is coming but whe I run to the bathroom to check it's just clear discharge?! Could I be pregnant?

My due date is today. Nothing, but this is my first child. I haven't been dialted at all, my next doctors appointment is tomorrow though. This past weekend I walked every day and on Monday and Tuesday I lost my mucus plug and had period like braxton hicks for a long time... Nothing though. I walked for about 30 minutes today. What else works? Jumping jacks? I want to have this baby. Does it even matter if I walk or do stretches?

What is the better brand of pregnancy test to take?!?!? Some people say the one's from the dollar store are fine and others say they're not. So what would be the best to buy, besides E.P.T., to check for pregnancy? (For those who are pregnant or have kids and took a HPT, what brand did you use and how did you like it)

My friend is being retarded and showed me a positive pregnancy test...she told me she tampered with it to become positive. (No drugs involved and she did pee on it). How did she do this?

Did it feel like a major charley horse in your stomach? Menstral cramps? Undescrible, excruciating pain?

Were you able to go through L/D without any pain meds? What helped you to deal with the pain?

If you had an epidural, was it scary? Did you feel anything during the needle insertion? Do you regret using the med, or was it Heaven sent?

I'm due in June. I'm scared about L/D. I pray that I can be tough enough to do it without an epidural. I'm petrified of the needle in my back!
