Take a peek inside the womb to see how your baby develops from week to week.
Welcome mommies from 1st Trimester Community (BFP to 13weeks). Your final stop is the 3rd Trimester Community (28w to 40w). Yay!
Found this site the first time I was pregnant and thought it was really neat to see how our LO's are changing week-to-week. Also, if you scroll farther down the page, there is a video that explains what in going on inside of us at the stage we are at. Hope you ladies find this interesting and helpful!View Thread

Do you know about all of your options with delivery? Have you thought about speaking to your doctor about the big day and all of your preferences?

- Comfort measures - Nonmedicine, pain medicine and water birth
- Pain Medicine - Epidural anesthesia, pudendal and paracervical blocks, narcotics
- Newborn Care Decisions - Banking your baby's umbilical cord blood, keeping the baby with you at least one hour after birth, delaying vitamin K injection and tests until the newborn calms, your visitation schedule

I have noticed that some of our members have had concerns about the changes in movement with their little ones. Sometimes it can be scary when that regular soccer player decides to sit on the bench and take a nap.
Here is a great article that explains your baby kicks! When you should feel them, how much is expected and when you might need to consult a doctor.
Hope that this comes as some help!View Thread

Pregnant Women and Vitamin D: Researchers say taking vitamin D supplements during pregnancy can prevent preterm labor/births and infections. Vitamin D is good for the immune system and bone health. The greatest effects were seen among women taking 4,000 IU of vitamin D per day.
