    okay, so far I want to eat dinner at your house. I'll bring hard ice cream for cobbler.nm

    Gay guys can be your best friend and truly understand women. I love them.
    I would rather have any of the fab five for a friend than some PMS female who is jealous. There is nothing bad about being gay - well unless you are ULTRA "flamboyant"
    dinner tonight? I'm having fried chicken and macaroni & cheese. I'll make sure it's a whi
    I have my cholesterol checked! 
    Yes, a gay love story about men who also marry women and have children and betray them. HOW sm
    is that a GOOD THING????????????????  Good grief!  Oh, bad bad prejudiced society MADE them get married and have families to hide their true love for each other.  BALONEY.  If you want to be gay, then be gay.  Just don't give me all this angst.  Not when children are involved.  I saw the movie.  Phooey.
    Oooh, I just LOVE what's for dinner posts. sm

    Funny thing is, I just put chili together for tomorrow. Dumped it in the crock pot. put the crock in the fridge and will do a slow cook thing tomorrow. Yummy.  Must be cold and rainy where you live too.  All I could thing of was chili, baked beans or a big pot of hot soup. :)


    Tonight we had baked pork chops and oven baked red potato chunks. Very, very yummy and very, very easy.  Here's what you do:


    Dice up potatoes (with skins on) and layer them in a 13 x 9 baking dish. Add 1/3 cup cooking oil and 1 package of Lipton (or store brand) dry onion soup mix and stir it up. Then mix the other package of onion soup mix with bread crumbs, rinse off the pork chops, and roll them in the mix and throw them in a baking dish as well.  Put both in the oven at 350 degrees.  Potatoes usually take 35 minutes. Pork chops depend on the thickness. WICKED GOOD!


    Correction - Men and women cheat - men get caught - women don't

    I know more women who cheat than the other way around, and the difference is that no one knows about it unless THEY tell them.


    That is what I said if you'll read my below post.

    No, don't! This is fun! If you go away, I'll be too tempted to go back up and read those UGLY
    posts. I just know that then I will be rather more than irritated! If I read them...I can tell they're horrible...But if we're here, talking about warm milk, and who is who, and why is why, then none of us will have to go back UP and read those...other posts!!
    Read the WHOLE THREAD, from the begnning,then you'll understand!...sm
    It is very wrong to jump in right in the middle of a thread!
    You have to read what lead to this particular comment.
    Oh please. I forgot the "are". If I had known this was a typing test instead of a post
    You got the meaning anyway, which is why you got so sensitive and tried to change the subject.
    Oops! meant letters "are fading"
    Hey, what can I say... 4:45 a.m. Been up all night... shift just about to end in about an hour or so.
    You'll love this
    I got a forwarded email from my boss yesterday originally from a worman at the hospital I type for.  They want to "recognize their best dictators," and they want the transcriptionists' help in identifying them.  How stupid do they think we are?  They obviously want to go to voice recognition.  I have nothing against technology.  I just resent that they think we're so stupid that we don't know what they're doing.

    Been both, LOVE being an IC!! (read there is more)
    Hi!

    I just wanted to let you know that I have been in both positions, employee and IC. After becoming an IC, I knew I loved the flexibility and freedom that it gave, but was nervous about the taxes and such things as that. Believe me, after you change over to IC, you will wonder why you never did it before!! Hope that helps. Have a wonderful day!
    Women, especially women of childbearing

    age (especially this woman) prefer indoor plumbing and a bit of privacy rather than using a port-a-potty.   I met a woman recently, she and her husband built the house behind me.  She is also a master mechanic and does landscaping, all traditional male professions.  She is a bit rough around the edges and I would never have pictured her with the man who is her husband. 


    I know a few male MTs and if they aren't gay, they missed a good chance. 


    I read that, too. I love to cook, too, but I wouldn't want to be a chef or caterer.
    Working mostly evenings and complaining patrons. I don't know. There's this little yuppie deli downtown that I would love to open one very similar to. But would I want to do it everyday? Then again, I like gardening and canning. I could be a farmer and sell organic vegetables. Or I could sell homemade canned foods, but there's so much regulation there and worry about botulism. I also like writing. My true dream is to be a paid and published writer. I don't care about fame or fortune, just enough to be able to work a flexible schedule and support my family. My family says it's a pipe dream that everyone wants but few people get.
    pregnancy
    I spotted the entire 24 weeks until my youngest son was born. He had all of the things that come with prematurity, but is now a healthy 11-yr-old. I had a prior C-section and severe endometriosis though. In my case, they called it incompetent cervix. Is this your first pregnancy? If I were you, I'd take the others' advice and try to relax (off your feet) for a couple of days. I hope all turns out well for you.
    This is my 2nd pregnancy...sm

    My son is about 3-1/2 years old now.  PERFECT pregnancy..No complications, no spotting.  Everything was perfect.  That is why I am so scared this time.  I know all pregnancy are not alike.  Please pray that everything works out fine.  I really, really do appreciate all of the good thoughts and comments. 


    I will keep you updated on the progress Tuesday. 


    Pregnancy
    Not much advise, just possible congrats if you are pregnant. Those tests were always accurate with me and it seems like it may be saying you are. Maybe wait another day and try another test. Again, sorry I'm not much help. Sending good vibes your way.
    Pregnancy
    From my experience, with my own pregnancies & patient's pregnancies....the little faint line you are seeing is an indication of a positive pregnancy. The reason for it being so faint is most commonly because you are very newly pregnant (in a stage that most women never even know that they are pregnant yet). The line is faint because it is reflecting the HCG levels in your urine and it has found alittle bit, but not a lot. Thus a faint line appears. In a week or so, expect a much darker line. My guess is that you are probably pregnant and I would just retest in a few days to make sure. Also, keep in mind that not all women are able to get reliable results with the at home tests. Several patients in the past have received negative readings on their at home tests and came into the doctor's office for a serum pregnancy test to find out for sure...Many were pregnant! The HCG hormone doesn't always show up for all women when they use at home tests. Best of luck to you and your family!
    One way I knew with my last pregnancy...
    My breasts were VERY tender...even before I realized my period was late. I stopped at the store on my way home that very night, did the test as soon as I got home, and voila...baby #3 on the way...any symptoms of pregnancy besides being late on your period? That's a good indication of yes or no...good luck!
    Illness/pregnancy
    These are supposed to be treated the same - 12 weeks leave - my mother-in-law got sick last year and when she could not go back to work by the date that the hospital specified (she's a nurse) they terminated her from her job - and she had worked at this place for 20 years. I would seek legal advice on this subject before telling anyone at work.
    Seafood and Pregnancy
    No, they shouldn't because of the risk of food poisoning and/or mercury content.
    same with tuna and pregnancy......nm

    What you "should" be paid and what you "are" paid

    sadly are two very different things.  Good luck on demanding more..because someone else will just come along and take it for what they offer and they know it. 


    Try Fact Plus pregnancy test
    My OB-GYN used to use these in her office.  She said they were the most accurate.
    I only used a hand pump for last pregnancy sm
    But I WAH and never really left my son. I used an Avent Isis - a really great hand pump.

    Now, for working moms, they recommend a dual electric pump - if you are nosy and want to check them out, 2 of them are called Medela Pump In Style and Ameda Purely yours. The electric ones are supposed to (hopefully) get more milk faster, as both sides can let down at the same time. In addition, it cuts down pumping time doing both at once.

    I am pregnant again right now and don't plan on going electric if I can help it :) I'd much rather feed right from the tap!

    I had similar problem with my first pregnancy.

    I had more bleeding than you, but no cramping or any other issues.  It was in my first trimester.  I can't remember how far along I was, but it was fairly early.  Anyway the first thing my OB/GYN asked me was had I had *ex and I had a few hours earlier.   She wasn't the least concerned, but of course I was scared to death.  She told me not to have any "activity" for a while and I was a cough potato the next day or two just to be safe, but my son is 15 now and I had no similar problems throughout the rest of the pregnancy although I was having "relations."    I think she said a hormone in the *perm could cause the bleeding.  


    Think positive and take it easy.  Let us know how it goes. 


     


    Positive serum pregnancy
    Yes, it happened to me spotting on tissue only for 2 days, son is now almost 20. Doctor first said she did not know if it was a viable pregnancy, told me to go home and take it easy for a week, I did just what she said. Bleeding stopped by the next day. Good luck to you.
    I spotted from week 10 through 17 of my second pregnancy. (sm)
    My daughter is now almost 10. I'm sure everything will be fine. I will be praying for you.
    Positive pregnancy test
    Indeed I've had that experience with two months of bleeding/spotting with a positive pregnancy test, the result of which was a lovely 11 lb 9 1/2 oz, 26-inch long baby boy born by natural delivery with a smile on his beautiful face. The lovely boy is now 6'4" inches tall and the love of my life. My prayers go with you for a successful outcome.
    YES, if the pregnancy or delivery was complicated...nm

    Has anyone ever had a positive serum pregnancy test and...sm
    then started bleeding or spotting without any pain?  I had 2 positive urine tests and then started spotting or having a period but not as heavy (only sign of blood was on tissue).  I have been doing this for 2 days, so I went to the ER today.  Serum test was 154...I have to go back in 2 days in which time they say it should double if everything is okay.  Has anyone had experience like this and came out okay? 
    Yes, I had a period, no joke, for 5 months of pregnancy.
    Doc didn't understand, baby was healthy, born on time, no complications.
    Well I DID have bleeding with my ectopic pregnancy in August, so it is possible.
    An early ultrasound at the hospital was incorrectly read at the hospital as intrauterine, but when my OB/GYN did another ultrasound, it was ectopic.
    That I can understand. A planned pregnancy is a much different issue
    nm
    Is the patient pregnant? ITP is usally intrauterine pregnancy in OB.

    Has anyone ever been late for their period but got a negative pregnancy test
    my boobs hurt, my stomach is swollen, I throw up all the time, anyone else ever thought they were pregnant and had this happen?  I'm 4 days late and the test said no... So I would think that the test would be correct.. I have never in my life have had sore breasts I feel like I'm nuts ...
    Yes. I was pregnant anyways. The home pregnancy test was wrong.
    Then the doctor told me to have a D&C because he couldn't find the heartbeat on ultrasound, so he told me it was a miscarriage. Actually, my ovulation was off. I refused to have the D&C and my son was born 7.5 months later.

    Are you trying to get pregnant? Are you using birth control? Sometimes you can feel pregnant or even have a blighted ovum or early miscarriage that won't register with any pregnancy hormone. I had one at 10 weeks. Swollen boobs and water retention can be caused by hormones or stress. I would suggest to just relax and see what happens in the next week, then try another PG test.
    i stopped reading at the unwed pregnancy part
    statistics have shown that teen pregnancy has gone down in the past 30 years. Most unwed pregnancies these days are by choice by grown women. In 1996 I was 25, wanted a child and was not married, so I made the decision to have a child on my own. Is that a bad thing? Now, I own my own home, my daughter wants for nothing and is a straight A student, and I am by no means rich or come from money. I work hard and have instilled good values in my daughter. I don't see that as any part of some explosion of bad behavior....sorry but I have to disagree with you. If you are offended by what you saw/heard/smelled that is fine but to judge these people as "bad", well that's for a higher power to decide, don't you think?
    She had an ectopic pregnancy. They were showing everything that happened in the past. Next week it

    I am only 40---starting to early....I found that pregnancy kills brain cells - nm

    Good luck and be sure to do your exercises when it is time.
