Hey Ladies (and gents),I'm noticing that my little one's bum is getting little red rashes with bumps. I know I'm not supposed to use diaper cream with CD but what am I supposed to do to treat the rash?See More

Sage is great! Hopefully it works out that dshe is on call. That is the one major downside to that group. You just never know who you will get. Jan Floyd is actually my favorite. She and I went through a very difficult birth together and I think that bonded us.

CMC Pineville is the best hospital in Charlotte for natural birth. Who is your OB or CNM? Let me know ifyou need anything.

When are you due? Where are you having your baby? Are you having a doula? Sorry if I sound nosey. I am a childbirth ed and doula so I love the topic!

The reason we are just targeting Purcell and Forrester is we hoped it would not get to the point where we needed to bring it to anyone elses attention. As of last night it looks like SB164 will die a quiet death and never be heard. We are keeping a close eye on it. If it pops back up then we will need to contact all of our senators. Right now it looks like we won and won't have to go that far! Yeah! Are you a member of NCFOM? If not you may be interested in joining. You can do so at www.ncfom.org.

Poison Ivy

Does anyone have suggestions for relieving poison ivy itch?  I'm new to holistic treatments, and hubby has a small case of what he thinks is poison ivy or oak on face and hands.
