<t>1. How long have you been EPeing (or how long did you)? 10 weeks<br/> <br/> 2. What is/was your long term goal? I had hoped to nurse for about 6 months.<br/> <br/> 3. If you are no longer pumping, did you reach your goal? If no, why not? No. Having a 28-weeker, I had to pump (of course), and then...

<t>I just want to add that I, too, really really really wanted a girl.... and got my little miracle boy. <br/> <br/> I was rather prepared for it, because there is only 1 girl in at least 3 generations of my husband's family, so I always figured that I had no chance! lol<br/> <br/> In fact, during t...

<t>No, you definitely aren't alone in that. I think that women with easy pregnancies are SO lucky... my only problem is when they don't REALIZE how lucky/blessed they are.<br/> <br/> The other thing that I didn't mention is that I, too, feel more spiritual, etc. I have always gone to church & th...

<t>Sarina, <br/> <br/> I have no idea about whether that is "the pain" or not. As I said in my post, the only pain I had was in my back...and it probably wasn't HELLP related.<br/> <br/> All I can say is that it scares and worries me to hear that a doctor (esp a high risk ob) isn't listening to you....

<t>hey hey hey!!! I have a question about that pain!<br/> <br/> The day I went into HELLP, I had the worst back pain I have ever known was possible. It hurt so much that I couldn't stand it. Most of the day, they were trying to get me on my left side, but my back hurt so bad I could hardly lay down....

<t>Can I just wrap up all the previous answers, and add a big DITTO? [8D]<br/> <br/> * A greater sense of understanding about life and death situations. I have always wondered how people feel when they are dying. My MIL died of cancer when she was 57, and I have always wondered why she didn't fight ...

<t>I was just wondering what the current thinking is on a possible link between pree/HELLP and lupus?<br/> <br/> One of my mom's friends probably had at least pree, and more likely HELLP, about thirty years ago. She had severe morning sickness (as I did), and was diagnosed with gall bladder disease,...

<r>According to a report from Beth Israel hospital in Boston, they have discovered the cause of preeclampsia.<br/> <br/> What do you at the Preeclampsia Foundation think of this announcement. Is it for real, or just something that is going to be debunked in a couple months or years?<br/> <br/> And i...

<t>OOPS! Posted this in the wrong place to begin with!<br/> <br/> Anyway....<br/> <br/> <br/> I'd be interested in joining a WV chapter. Although I currently live in Washington PA, I'm originally from WV, I work in WV, and I had Aaron at Morgantown.<br/> <br/> Sharel<br/> <br/> <br/> Sharel & Ke...
