    Ambersky, do you know who your midwife is?

    Welcome Phynna!

    Saw my midwife on Monday. Things seem to be going well - baby nice and active, weight gain slowing down a little, thank goodness! Starting probiotics to lessen the chance of GBS, although I won't be testing. By the way, I saw a study which said that GBS was about 3x less likely to be transmitted to baby in a waterbirth. Good to know.
    Midwife said "yes, you're just at that nice stage of pregnancy, where you're not too big yet, and everything's moving along nicely...." I was like "right, tell that to my aching back and hips! I've been ready to be done since about 20 weeks!" Oh well. We're getting there. One day at a time.

    ooohh i wish i could go to the FOB screening in Kensington. it looks like i will be going there for some yoga classes when i get back. has anyone been there yet for other stuff?

    i wish BB would do a screening...just like they did with BOBB. it was such a cool way for new members like myself to 'see' the face(s) of BB without the pressure of intimacy that dinners have ITMS.
