My husband and I are originally from North Carolina but moved to Michigan a year ago. We have 2 beautiful girls (8 & 4) and just had a sweet little boy in November.

Strange fact about my family: all 3 of my children were born in different states. Oddly enough our middle child will be the only one from our home state.

Ok mommies....i have a 3 month old with a cold. I also have a 5 year old who has had a cold for several weeks now. The doctor says just wait it out, tylenol ibuprofen lots of rest. I am sick of waiting it out my 5 year old has missed 2 weeks of preschool and was sick on her birthday so we didn't have a party. Now my little man is sick and miserable. He is coughing constantly. He chokes after he eats and has trouble breathing even after I suction his nose out. He wont sleep anywhere but on my che...

My son was born November 20th at 37 weeks. He is now 10 weeks old (2months 2weeks) and is a healthy baby. I am concerned that he doesnt seem to be meeting milestones. He doesnt seem to be very social. He would rather look at everything around the room than look at our faces. He will make eye contact but not for extended periods of time. He isnt cooing or tracking objects that move or turning towards sounds and voices. Ive been told that preemies (even late term preemies) are measured on an adjus...

My son was born 3weeks early and had trouble gaining weight. We had trouble getting a good latch bc his mouth was so small and my boobs practically suffocated him so we decided to supplement. Then there was nipple confusion and lots of spitting up so we switched formulas and started using the Tommee Tippee bottles a friend gave us. They are like a Dr. Brown's but have wider nipples. My little guy has started having more tummy issues so I decided to go strictly formula for a little while (my fi...

Tips for getting rid of or preventing hypertension headaches? I have started drinking twice as much water and not let little things get to me but nothing has helped. I'm scheduled for induction on Wednesday but I am desperately trying to keep my bp as close to normal as I can until then.

I went to the ob today for my 36 week appointment. At my appointment I was informed that due to my consistently high blood pressure that they will be inducing me next week.
If you've had at baby at 37 weeks what was your experience? Did baby have to go to the NICU or stay longer than a full term baby? Were there any complications ? I'm super nervous.

I have my 35week OB appointment this afternoon and last week they were concerned about my BP being a little higher than usual. They did a lot of tests to rule out preeclampsia ....I know it's normal at this stage in pregnancy but I'm so nervous! Y'all please say an extra prayer for me that my results are normal!

Im really going to miss feeling this little guy kick and wiggle in my belly! Its heartbreaking to think that after he's born I'll never feel the miracle of life growing inside my body again.
