I have been having a few aches and pains all over but mostly in my back for a few months now - which is not helped by carting around a hefty 7 month old!!! Usually they would only last a few days but I have had pain in my right hip and down my thigh for well over a week and it doesn't seem to...

Hello, I have a 4 1/2 month old and am 9 weeks pregnant!!!! I had PCOS and had to have hormone injections in order to concieve the first time round and so we were trying to get pregnant while I was at my most fertile. I am over the moon but still a little shocked at being pregnant again! In...

No chance of getting back to sleep. Had a shower and gone through my bag again and just waiting around really. Still no contractions although my bump is definately lower, tighter, smaller and achey. Will give it an hour or so then go to the hospital (takes an hour to get there) just to get...

I am slightly freaking out - my waters have just broken (at 4am) which is great because it means I am going to meet my little man soon :dance: but HELP!!!!!! I have had no contractions whatsoever not even any braxton hicks and so am on red alert but also a bit confused as I asumed that we...

Convinced hubby to let me raid my easter chockie :cheer: Have had such a chocolate craving today that I had run out and was desperate!! Has everyone else been good or am I the only one :oops:

The company I am thinking of (Cells4Life) have the following charges and and they also have a payment plan. The total cost is £1495 for the collection kit, testing and storage for 20 years. - there is no yearly charge. I would have an extra cost of £377 for the extra courier to me in Spain...

Bought my Baby Bjorn today from boots online - £10 off :D Where do you buy your freedom slings from?

How do you know what size breast feeding bra to buy? I have 8 weeks left but my bazongers are still growing :roll: (all be it much slower than earlier in pregnancy). How do you estimate what size you'll be after giving birth?

I had high Ketones too and the midwife said that It could be due to dehydration and to drink more water. When I had my next check the levels had dropped and so maybe try drinking more water.

Has anyone been screened for Group B streptococcus? I had never heard of it but my friend who is a couple of weeks behind me in pregnancy told me about it - found an article (http://www.babycenter.com/0_group-b-str ... ng_1647.bc) about it and it sounds fairly serious so just wondering if...
