Hi all
I Came across a new web site the other day that talks about the everyday chemicals used in our personal care products. It has some interesting reading the site also provides access to totally chemical free personal care products such as shampoo, conditioner, moisturizers and baby care products.

confused about preg test

feeds@yuku.com (jessp72404) — Thu, 24 Jun 2004 09:16:48 GMT

For the past month, I have been feeling very nauseated and been having other symptoms of pregnancy. But this month I got my period. I still felt like I might be pg. So I took a test and a very faint line came up. Does this mean I'm pg? I am going to take another test in a few days. I also have an appointment with my gynecologist next week. Should I ask him to perform a test or what?

Lotio or Soak ?

Hi ! I work for an aromatherapy company based in Loughborough near Leicester in the UK and would like your help. We're producing a new pack for pregnant women called Motherly Love and it'll contain nothing but pampering goodies for the new mum, all using pure essential oils (perfectly safe to use). It'll include a pregnancy body wash and an anti stretch mark cream, but we need help with the last product and this is where YOU come in. We'd like to include something for aching feet and tired...

Strange Question

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Sun, 06 Jun 2004 11:21:42 GMT

I have a strange question that I think I know the answer to already, but want another opinion. I had my last AF on May 12. DH and I DTD on May 26 using a condom. Then I had a drs appt on June 1 and the dr said there was a little blood, but nothing major. I've never had spotting between my periods before so I thought it was odd. I always have long cycles, like 35-45 days and I feel some of the same symptoms that I had when I was pregnant with my son, but I know I can't test yet and I'm not...

ovarian cyst during pregnancy

feeds@yuku.com (alyiahsmommy) — Wed, 02 Jun 2004 08:21:38 GMT

I have a golf ball size cyst on my right ovary and was wondering if anyone else had experienced this?
Did you have to be monitored by u/s? Did you have any restrictions?
I go see my OB today but I was just wondering what anyone's thoughts or experiences were?

Has anyone tried this before?

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Wed, 26 May 2004 00:28:45 GMT

Hi

Please can anyone tell me if they have experience of using cotton nappies (cloth diapers) from a company called Cotton Bottoms in the UK? They apparently ship worldwide so was wondering if anyone has used or tried them before?

Im considering them as an eco-friendly, healthy alternative to disposables while at the same time saving money. A couple of my friends use disposables and they are constantly in the supermarket spending large amounts of money on nappies and then throw...

breast pumps

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Fri, 14 May 2004 14:58:42 GMT

hi,
i'm new to this board and have a question...i am interested in breast feeding and have a friend who is offering to lend me her pump. She is telling me that I do not have to get new tubing, etc...that all we have to do is boil and disinfect it. I have no idea what the right thing to do is, but it would be nice to save that money and not have to buy a whole new pump for myself...Please give advice!!! Thank You

HELP! bleeding mid cycle

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Fri, 14 May 2004 07:37:52 GMT

Hi! I'm new to the board. TTC...29 yrs old....

I have been off the pill for one year. My cycles are like clock work....every 29 days. This month, however, I started bleeding 11 days early. It wasn't just light spotting....and lasted 2-3 days. I am concerned because it is so out of the ordinary for me. I want to be pregnant, but fear I am not. Early miscarriage? Ovulation? Has anyone else experienced anything like this?

search 4 birth announcement..

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Thu, 06 May 2004 13:55:41 GMT

Hi I am looking for a specific birth announcement.
My friend had one like it, and I want one like this:
It is a pencil drawing of an older boy, about 5 or 6 looking down at his new baby sibling.
It was sooo beautiful and at the bottom it said something like, welcome our new miracle or something.
Anyone have any links to sites with anything like this?
Thanks!

Need an answer fast

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Thu, 06 May 2004 10:53:36 GMT

Has anyone experience implantation bleeding before? What's it look like, how long from O did it show. Here's my reason for asking. I am supposed to start my period on day 25, which would be May 9th (Mother's day), well last night I had a little discharge, brownish in color ( not a lot) just enough to notice. Then this morning I had some more, not a lot again just enought to notice when I wiped. Trying to figure out if maybe our attempt to make a little one worked, or if it's AF trying to...

When to (if to?) have second

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Tue, 13 Apr 2004 12:25:47 GMT

Okay, I realize that everyone's experiences/expectations/desires are different. So I'm just looking for any input that people are willing to share.

I have a 13 month old daughter--truly the light of my life. I do not know if another baby is right for our family. What helped you decide that another baby was right for you? Or why did you decide an only child was the way to go? How did you determine how far apart to space your children?

We're starting to put away a lot of her...

I know this is a silly question, but...

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Wed, 31 Mar 2004 06:13:52 GMT

... when you are pregnant is your stomach hard and firm, or can it be softer, like average?

Are you able to press it in or 'suck' it in? ( I mean this to a certain extent, of course - in the earlier months, like 4-6 months)

I know, but I would still like an answer.

Thanks very much.

Husbands and common sense

feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) — Thu, 18 Mar 2004 10:12:44 GMT

My husband seems to have lost his brain since I got pregnant...or maybe I am just being really sensitive? He actually asked if it was alright to go to a strip club for a bachelor party. A FULLY NUDE strip club! Am I over reacting? Does anyone else have stupid husband stories so that I don't feel so alone in this?

Look at my siggy
