Sciatica and Pregnancy

I am 28 weeks pregnant and have been suffering with sciatic pain for about the last 2 months. I have been doing physical therapy and recently started with a chiropractor, who is going to have me start wearing a tens machine. ( it didn't work!)

I feel like I am losing it! I have never been in this much chronic pain in my life! It is getting worse and...

Why Always TWO Children? What's Wrong with Just One???

I'm a first time mom at age 44. I never thought I'd have children b/c of my age and then....Mr. Wonderful showed up! My little man is now 14 months old. I can't tell you how many times I've been asked when I'm going to have a little girl. When I respond with, "I'm an older mom to begin with and I just don't think it will happen". The respond that I often get is, "Only children have real issues". We didn't have any problems getting pregnant at all and, I didn't have any issues, whatsoever during my pregnancy. However, towards the end...

Plane Trip Tips

Hi all, I am about to fly to Australia which I am used to and cope very well with the long flight, uncomfortable seats, bad food, all of that but....
