oh man Im sorry you had so many troubles.  I didnt struggle that much but I did have to take Clomid to have my second son.  This one just happened outta the blue tho.  I guess I cant carry girls or something like that - thats what doctors seem to think anyways since I had 2 m/c and now will have 3 boys.  Anyways CONGRATS to you and best of luck!

I have been told about fish and seafood as well as to which ones to eat and which ones can possibly harm the baby.  I have had 2 m/c myself and I am very concious about what I do when preggo....everything scares me enuf - without doing something I possibly shouldnt.

Thanks for the advice!!

Best of luck..  however i did ask my midwife regarding tht her answer ws same not to do that... Plus babies ear become more sensitive by time evn if u play music outside on table thy will still move... I would rather take precautions thn putting my baby life at risk evn if its unproven theory... Because atleast at the end God does give him ny problem i cn stand n say ptoudly i hve been careful n whatever happened it ws from God... Not due to my neglegence...

And abt fish its always been told which one to eat n which one to not n howcmuch to eat etc... Whn u go thru still births n miscarriages it kind of make u realise how important that tiny life is inside u n every lil thing scares the hell out of u... This is my opinion i dont really care what other people do for there health.. My point ws sharing...

Take care n best of luck

I use to do tht b4 putting my phone on belly... Thn i read an article on which study showed that women who use or put phone near there pg belly can cause adhd in baby... Its not proven but they said if does get proven in future there will be many regrets... So i got scared now whn i use phone i mke sure its away from belly as its radiance n rays can cause problem with child mental health... I know its fun coz when i use to play anything on phone my baby use to up n down.... But now i m so worried n i actually started crying coz i use to do tht since 14wks n i had no idea i ws harming my lil guy...

I can feel him all the time but as of yesterday that is the first couple kicks i felt outside.  I was so excited but at the same time is frustrates my fiance bc he cant feel it yet.  He says he is a lil jealous that I can and he cant.  He is so excited - its so cute! I just figure its only gonna get stronger now so it wont be long before its all the time!
