I don't think you can make your LMC a midwife and still have an OB as they would be LMC. I had an OB last time and hadn't met his midwives until I was in labour. It didn't worry me a...

My sister is visiting from Queensland and is wearing jeans and long sleeve tops. Bring a jacket as its been raining a bit. It's not freezing, I'm still in shorts and a t-shirt.

You need to speak to a nursing union or occ health. You can also get your midwife/OB to put it in writing that you are to be put on light duties.

My OB also says else it is a waste of money, he recommends blackmores pregnancy and breast feeding and folic acid until 3 months.

I was a W sitter for a long time (even as a teenager) now I have a hip that subluxes. I think it's fine when they are little as long as they grow out if it.

I agree you need to go on strike so he realizes how much you are doing. Being a stay at home mum can be more exhausting then going to work. Surely he could help for a couple of hours once he gets h...

Bubs doesn't need to drop to go into labour don't stress. My DD didn't until I was well into labour.

Gained 9kgs lost 11 kgs within the first week.

I always use the cloth swimming nappies as they are far cheaper. They only catch poo so I put them on just before DD gets into the pool. She has never pooped but would just clean it out and put it ...

I would give the gift you have already bought. We had a wishing well but some guest preferred giving gifts. I cherish the gifts we got. Just put a note in the card

Congratulations that is fantastic! Don't worry too much about the vitamins just start taking them again.

The first spelling

I had to use it for every feed otherwise I couldn't get all of the wind up. It worked great

I used to give it before every feed

I found that infacol made a huge difference as I couldn't get all the wind up no matter how long I spent winding DD. DD peadiatrician prescribed losec which also made a big difference too.

I have had this problem too. Have found by going into comfort DD it makes things worse. If I rock her to sleep she will get stand up as soon as I put her into the cot. Now I just have to leave her ...
