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.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
