Im 7 almost 8 months along and got a cold. I've got a sore throat, runny nose, head and body aches. Is there anything that I can safely take to relive my symptoms? Thanks in advance.

Can anyone recommend some good pregnancy books for the father-to-be?

We already own quite a few books (in the style of week by week what to expect etc) but i would like something written with males in mind as the target audience.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

So... I'm having difficulty trying to figure out the following:
1. Water Breaking vs. Peeing
2. Light Green Discharge looks likes cottage cheese (eww, i know... but if you've had this - what is it?)
3. Contractions

I'm week 38! Yay! Can't wait to see my little man... but I've been wondering...

1. I wake up all the time and have to pee or if I accidentally let some out... when I go to use the bathroom - I can't? Is this water breaking / leaking out or whats going on...

2. I have a light green discharge that has been around off and on kind of for about a week now. It doesn't smell. It looks like cottage cheese kind of, just trying to figure out what this is since my practioner wasn't open this week for Thanksgiving... I also have been doing the whole "stringy mucous" but it hasn't had any bloody show.

3. I've never experienced "period cramps" for some reason, i've just always had my period and thats it- it comes, no pains at all, it goes... so Contracions feel like???????

I was suppose to start my period but the only thing that happened was the brown spotting. It lasted about 4 or 5 days.

I know that the pills and patches all have risks of blood clots, but do the other options out there also risk blood clots? what are they?

I am 20wks 1 day pregnant. I felt the first flutters of baby moving at 15/16wks. Now i feel actual movements (not just flutters) but with no real consistency. Generally it is when i'm lying in bed reading a story to baby but not always.

At what stage (i know everyone is different but an approximate is fine) will i feel baby move a few times a day, everyday?

As always, many thanks for your advice :)

I know that this question has been answered already. But, I took 2 pregnancy tests after 50 days of missing my period. It said no. I really feel like I am though. My breasts are swolen, sore and darker. I have headaches. I feel bloated. Is my mind just trying to play tricks on me? I just got married and we wanted to wait a few more years, so this might not be a good thing. But I think that deep down inside i do want a baby. Could my pregancy tests be wrong? Am i going crazy?

Here I am again, the seventh night in a row, sitting watching crap telly, in agony with heartburn. I am living on Rennie and Gaviscon, it isn't helping in the slightest. I am 36 weeks pregnant and can't sleep. The minute I lie down, my mouth fills with acid and chokes me. I have tried milk, not eating after 6pm, eating bland food, and tried sleeping sitting up, but none of them work and am still feel totally fed up.
Hubby is snoring away upstairs and I am at the end of my tether!! Anything else I could try??

pleeeeease help!
Thanks LOADS! Jane xxx

I gave birth two weeks ago. As this is my first baby I am not sure as to how recovery is supposed to go, so please don't judge me. First question: Anyone have a catheter when they delivered and later got an infection because of it? If so what were your symptoms and how did you get over it? After delivering everything down there hurt so I wasn't sure what the pain was from. Aftering using a mirror I realized that my urethra is really swollen- like the size of one of those rubber balls that come out of a kids quarter machine. Is this normal? Second question- two weeks out how heavy should the bleeding be and should there be any foul odor at all? I still notice little gushes of bright red blood in the toilet when I go to the bathroom and I am still using maxi pads. Also I notice that there is kind of an odor that is different then menstrual blood. Third question: I had a 2nd degree episiotomy. How long does it take for the stitches to dissolve and how long after delivery did you have sex

I know it isn't safe to use a hot tub while in the first trimester of pregnancy, but how unsafe is it? Should I be concerned if I've already been in a hot tub? I do know that the temps were over 101 but I was only in twice, once for about 45 min and another time for about 35 min. 1st pregnancy and no family history of miscarriages or defects...not a smoker or drinker either...thanks!
