My sister gave birth tonight to a baby girl, Silvia. She was breech so my sister had to have a C-section. This is the first baby between my sisters and I. I wish I could have been there, she lives 2 hrs away. I will post pics as soon as they put them in the I-Nursery.

This is so exciting!!! We are making another trip home this weekend to see the new baby. Now I am waiting on my sister Carrie to email me the pictures she took. I talked to Tammy, the new mom, and she is feeling better. She is waiting to see her baby, she really doesn't remember clearly the delivery because she was drugged. I believe this might be the first time she will hold the baby. :):):) Awww!! Just in time for mothers day too.

She is 18 inches, and is healthy.

I cannot wait for my own actually. We are getting married in October and are going to start trying soon after that. John had chemo a few years ago and was told his chances may not be as good. So we keep our fingers crossed. We are going to put our name on some adoption lists as well once we are married.

She is tiny. My smallest was 5 pounds 9 ounces and 19.75 inches, due to being 6 weeks early and trying to come out feet first lol. I think it is good to have smaller babies then they take longer to grow up lol.

Good luck on getting pg. That is great about putting your name on adoption list to, i think that is great. There are so many kids out there that dont have homes.

Actually, both my sisters were adopted, my parents did still do foster children. My sisters were some of the first children we had in our home. Carrie is going to be 21 in Sept and Tammy the new Mom will be 20 in June. We look like biological sisters so a lot of people would never guess we were not related.

My brother whose wife is going to make me an aunt was also my foster brother that my parents adopted when I was 19 and he was 4. When my youngest daughter was 4 and he was 11 he was chasing her around the church and one of the ladies said "You sure can tell that those two are related they look and act so much alike." I told her thank you and that it meant alot to me seeing that he was adopted and she said "He was not, they look to much alike for him to be adopted."

Tammy and Silvia are going home today. She has been put into the hospital's I-Nursery.

They spelled the baby's name wrong...but look how cute.

Sam's mom made the white outfit for the baby to come home in. Sam's entire family lives in Italy, his mom is in in her 80's. She will be going to Italy to be christened in August.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
