Is It Just Me?

Ok, I feel a little ridiculous with this question, but it's really bothering me so I hope someone out there can give me some insight as to what's going on with my body. (So you know, I do have an appointment with my OBGYN on Wednesday) I have been having a lot of weird, small symptoms lately and I'm not sure what to make of them. I will list them for you (in no particular order): frequent urination, foul smelling urine, tired, nausea and a little shaky before lunch (feeling as though I NEED to eat), gassy, looser stool, and what seems to...

Any Ideas for Re-occuring Bed Wetting

My 5 year old son has started bed wetting again after almost a year of rare occurences. I think it's because he's starting kindergarten this week, and is very excited. It's the only new event that could possibly be bringing this on. Last night it happened twice. We've told him we may have to try "big boy" overnight pants (which upset him---because "pull-ups are for babies--not kindergartners"--his words. Any other ideas, besides getting him up 3 times a night? We're already taking him to the bathroom before we go to bed and again...

Gestational Diabetes - Menu Ideas

So I just recently found out I have gestational diabetes and am still waiting to meet with my dietician. In the meantime, can anyone who's been through it give me some menu ideas? I know a serving of carbs is 15g and it ranges how much you can have, so I'm having as little as possibile but I just don't know what to eat. I feel like the stress of GD has diminished my mental capacity at this point. Also, just wondering if you've had GD, how fast did it go away once you had the baby? Days or weeks? Thanks

Pregnancy and Swine Flu

Hi Moms, I am freaking out and need some advice.....I am a teacher in a school who has AT LEAST 2 confirmed cases of Swine Flu. My issue is I am 7 months pregnant, can't find a vaccine anywhere to save my life, AND...I work in a modular unit with only 4 classrooms, and that is where the kids have it are. So, my work told me about the situation and then left it up to me. The doctor says to take a few days off, which I did. But, now the situation is not getting better...more kids in the modulars are out, and I have no way of knowing if...

Guilt over Son's Premature Birth

Hi ladies, I'm new to this site and in need of an honest opinion about my son's birth. My son was born a few months ago and he was born at 31 weeks and I feel like it was all my fault. When I was about 28 weeks along I went to the bathroom and when I stood up I felt a drip go down my leg. I called my OB and they were booked that day (it was about 3pm) and told me to go to a local hospital OB triage. During that visit they did a "dry specimen" where they cannot use any lubricant and they put the speculum inside and swabbed my uterus...

Morning sickness?....more like ALL DAY SICKNESS!!

I am about 6.5 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy, and I am so nauseated. I never felt this way with my first pregnancy. It's "all day" nausea and it leaves me feeling like I can't get anything done. To make matters worse I am trying to take care of my 2 year old son and keep up with the house work, but all I find myself doing is laying down trying to keep from throwing up. This is a horrible feeling. Does this get better as the weeks go on, or do I have to feel this way the whole first trimester? Any suggestions on what to eat...

What Week of Pregnancy Am I In???

I am very confused about what week I am in in my pregnancy. I am not able to go to the doctor for another month due to lack of funds and insurance problems. This is my third pregnancy, and it was a BIG surprise. My last period was May 26, but it was short and only dark brown. I had been feeling dizzy, sick, tired and starting to get a belly for the last two months. I only took a pregnancy test because I was suppose to start that day and I felt sick, so I thought I would just see. And it came back positive. I didn't start thinking I was...
