Get all of your medical records from the ER visits and visits to your doctor and take them to a different attorney. The more info you have the better the case you can build.
I know what it's like not to have insurance and not being able to get into see a doctor. It's really frustrating. Some clinics have financial aid available for those who don't have insurance. I know that many IHC clinics will do that. I would call around and see what is available.View Thread


It has done wonders for my swollen ankles and aching body. Not to mention a little weight loss. The past few weeks i've fallen a couple of times and going to the pool has helped soothe my sore muscles and joints from the falls and has helped me heal faster by taking the extra weight off my joints. It also helps calm the baby. My little guy moves around like crazy and it rocks him to sleep.
So go and relax in a pool and get some much needed relief from swollen feet and ankles.View Thread



Swimming in later pregnancy is very soothing for you and baby. It helps to take the weight off you and it sometimes can help baby go to sleep. My sister-in-laws all loved being in a pool while in their 3rd trimesters. Water exercises are also great for pregnant women because there is less impact on your joints and less harmful for baby.View Thread

I stretch every morning when I wake up and as far as I know it's fine. I had cramping pain in my 1st trimester and what you are discribing I would think that is what your pain is.
One thing you look forward to dealing with is swollen feet and legs. My doctor said that sitting in a swimming pool will help with that. But stay away from the hot tub. The hot water isn't good for pregnant women. It raises your body temperature and it affects the baby.View Thread

I have been eating out a lot because it's easier and because i'm sick of having to carb count everything I make. And I don't always feel like cooking.
I'll have to check out walmart for the diabetes cooking magazine. I need something because i'm tired of not being able to eat much.View Thread

Does anyone have any good receipes that are quick and easy and doesn't have a lot of carbs. Or know of a good website with some good receipes?View Thread
