right?! same. That wording gave me major pause.

I have this same car, a recall notice went out last month, but all it said was to make sure your car was truly in park and that there wasn’t really a fix for it.

I’m so sorry. The only thing I can offer is that the pain gets better, and it gets easier to put one foot in front of the other each day.

I’ve had a great experience with it. It was recommended to me by my doctor while I was pregnant and hadn’t had a BM in close to a week. I was SO.UNCOMFORTABLE. In those cases, I have a cup of tea right before i go to bed, and without fail I get relief first thing in the morning, or right after my morning coffee. I…

Wow, I didn’t realize these were senna teas. I’ve had GI issues my whole life, and every now and again I need to drink Smooth Move tea (main ingredient: Senna) just to make SOMETHING happen (usually after i haven’t had a bowel movement for 3-4 days.)

I’m pregnant and my doctor said to me, completely unsolicited, “If you want to have a glass of wine here and there, go for it. Do I suggest you do it every night? No.” During my first pregnancy, my (different)…

Ugh, i’m not surprised. At the time my OB was at Rush. The only reason I was even able to get in with the doctor who did the surgery is because my doctor had done her residency under him and they were still friends. FWIW, during my second pregnancy I moved to Northwestern Obstetrics Consultants, delivered at Prentice,…

I had a miscarriage at 14 weeks and couldn’t find anyone who would perform the D&E I needed, except for planned parenthood. They couldn’t get me in for 3 weeks. After a few desperate calls to my OB, they finally found someone an hour away who would perform the surgery I needed within the week. Did I mention this was…
