This thread is like the best birth control reading ever.

Both of mine were all natural too. J and my mom were begging the nurses to call an anethesiologist for me, but I refused. DD was born 20 minutes after they broke my water and DS was born in 1 push--I went from contractions being comfortable at 9 minutes apart to no minutes apart and the nurse was yelling for me not to push. Dr ran in, caught him and that was it! I got to cut his cord, nurse him, cuddle him, everything, before J came into the room! He missed the whole thing-and the sad part was that he was in the hospital! The loud speakers apparently don't work in the cafeteria ;)

Had something to put on here but got distracted by the 5:00 news and the miners. Must not have been important!

Now I remember! They had an earthshake in Oklahoma today. The lady at the grocery said her daughter is in Oregon and they have been warned to get supplies. They are expecting a 9.0 earthquake. Any of you Pacific Northwest residents heard this?

Sorry, I forgot you weren't there! I feel I take you all with me everywhere. The grocery lady said her folks live in OK and just had an earthquake. Then she said her daughter in Oregon said they were reporting that the ""geographical signs" were pointing to an earthquake.

All I can find is that no one thinks we are prepared. Especially for the coast-apparently no one is prepared for a tsunami. That reminds me, I need to get some groceries....

Actually, I just wanna make sure I'm on the right side of the Interstate bridge if it happens. I do NOT want to swim the Columbia River to get home!!

The Oracle is being serious (yeah, occasionally I am not trying to be phunny).

A quake of 9.0 severity in a populated area would be devastating. Quakes of that magnitude in recorded history have all been subduction megathrust quakes where tectonic plates slide. The last one on that scale in North America was a 9.2 with the epicenter south of Anchorage, AK, in 1964. The Pacific plate slid under the North American plate by 23 meters. It could have been much worse, but the movement happened kilometers below sea level under Prince William Sound.

If a 9.0 magnitude quake hits in Oregon, Rachelle's home may well suddenly have a beach front on the Pacific Ocean. Assuming the tsunami does not wipe it out. :huh:

Our 7.2 quake was a slip/thrust of the Australian and Pacific plates, but it only moved three meters! Nevertheless, it was under land and comparatively shallow (15 km) so we have pictures of a hedge torn apart and growing beside itself for three meters

We had a 5.0 aftershock yesterday, the biggest in a while, and the first one I have 'heard' since I have been back. What a rattle and a clatter as the shockwave hit the western side of the house :o They said we may have them (aftershocks) for two or three years!! There have been over 1400 so far.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
