I'm going to breast feed my baby when it is born no matter what because I know it is SO much healthier for them. I am just curious about what it will do to my boobs. HaHa! Thanks!

Okay - If you are trying to use sex as a way to 'get things movin' when you are full term (I am 39 wks) I know his semen inside of you helps soften the cervix & orgasm can start contractions... BUT is there a position that is better than another for achieving all of this?? Or is it a 'whatever works' type of thing??? Thanks!

I'm planning to have my baby in a birth centre where they do not give epidurals - just gas and air or pethidine. The idea is that you can stay mobile, use the pool, mattresses on the floor etc. As someone who is scared of hospitals and gets very panicky in hospital situations I think this is the best choice for me.

If you need an epidural you have to go to the hospital ward and have a traditional, bed bound, monitored delivery which makes me feel really scared. I would not cope with having loads of monitors all over me or not being able to move around, it would just make me panic really bad.

Is it possible to have a first baby without an epidural? I don't want one if it means being stuck on a bed, I would feel so much calmer in the birth centre. Plus I'm scared of the side effects of the epidural - the shaking, fever, sickness etc.

I am going to be 39 weeks for tomorrow. My due date is September 18. I have gestational diabetes and my doctor wants to induce me, possibly on September 12 and I'm totally stressed out. She said its for the health of the baby and just so I won't get a c-section just in case if the baby is too big. This is my first baby. I saw my doctor on September 7, and she said I'm dialated at 1 1/2 cm and said she could feel the baby's head. I'm not too sure what effaced means though? I had an ultra sound on September 6 and the baby was estimated at weighing 7 pounds and 10 ounce. I'm stressed out because I don't want to get induce and end up getting a c-section, what should I do? Should I go ahead and get induced on September 12, or should I try waiting at least until September 15? I'm too stressed.

Please give me some reason why you decidednot to breastfeed and if it's related to medication. I know this is a sensitive topic, but those of you that are set on breastfeeding please understand and respect those who chose or choose not too, whether it be medication or personal preference.

At 18 weeks along, the head is the equivalent of 20 weeks along and the rest of the body is normal growth for 18 weeks, should Mom be concerned?

I'm 16 weeks pregnant and I have had this headache since yesterday. Tynenol is the only pain reliever that you can take when you're pregnant, and unfortunately, it does nothing for me. I tried taking a nap, but it only made me feel worse. Any other suggestions??

Well my hubby & i have been together for 10yrs. We have a 9yr, 8yr, and 2yr old. I thought i was pregnant then got my period.while on my period i ordered the Ortho-Evra patches so i wouldn't get pregnant I went to a doctor & he confired i was 5-7 weeks pregnant.I can't say i felt happy i felt worried as to how to tell my hubby. I always wore the patches just like i should i did not try to get pregnant i knew that financially we wouldn't be able to afford a new baby & to me three kids are more than enough. We got ourselves a home, a new motorcycle for my hubby and a new suv for me. My hubby and i work very hard for everything we have but a new baby? Don't get me wrong i will love my baby but how do i tell my husband. Last night i asked him to make love to me & he said NO because the patches had only been on for a couple of days & we could get pregnant & he said that was the last thing he wanted. He told me we couldn't affor a baby & i should get fixed I couldn't brake it to him. help

I am 27 weeks pregnant and I honestly feel that there is a lot of pressure on pregnant women to "keep going" and it can be really hard.

I know people who had no sickness, no problems felt great through their pregnancies and worked right up till their due dates. I know others who felt awful but still managed to forcibly keep going. God for them I say.

But I have felt rotten in my pregnancy. Terrible sickness and I just COULDN'T keep going! Everytime I was sick I was liable to faiting, shaking etc and there was no way I could manage the daily commute in that state! I felt so tired a lot of the time and right now I have a bladder infection which is making me feel like hell warmed up.

So I'm languishing at home, getting plenty of sleep etc, whilst other pregnant women I know are cheerfully pulling their 40-hours per week, shopping, going out, doing all their hobbies and keeping really busy, and looking down their noses at me for taking it easy. Surely we're all different!!!
