Michelle answers:
You should go to your doctor and ask them. They can see if you have blocked tubes or tell him to do a blood test or ultrasound to see if you have PCOS. If you do, it can be treated. Serophene isn’t supposed to have any effect on people with polycystic ovaries. Also, if you have any family history of infertility or PCOS, inform your doctor too
Good luck,

Staphylococcus aureneus and Candida on my babys bottom!?
Hi!
I have a 9-10 week old whom has had a rash since 2 weeks old. only 10 days ago did they take a swab to shut me up. I had been trying to make them take a sample from stools, urine, swabs on bum, swab in mouth, ect.
They gave me creams that stripped the skin on her bum which they were not happy that i knew the exact details of what the creams are really ment for (micreme is NOT for babies even thou its given to heaps, it made my baby worse). After all that they did a swab that came up saying she had heavy growth of Staphylococcus aureus and moderate growth of Candida (which my mum says i have had and its due to sugar).
In my last month of pregnancy i had green discharge which the docs and midwife said ‘its fine dont worry’ but i did. When baby was born she had a bad eye all pussy it stopped aftwe weeks of natural treatment (once again the creams they gave made it worse).
The docs wont listen to me and im wondering if there was anyone whom had a child that had this and what helped for them.
She had water stools no solids since week 2. It shoots out across the room and no longer has a sweet smell to it. 100% breast fed baby sometimes expressed in bottle.
Many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ive been deff using the zinc/castor ointments i have 2 types ones a cream that rubs in and one doesnt just sits on top i have been using that one along with her just gotten oral meds which i will be trying out till monday with me watching her very closely.
Ill also be going to get myself checked (even thou i obviously have no matter what the doc says to me) from what we have here called family planning. i have a solution of drops to give her once her antibiotics are done to clear it out of her system. how long did it take for your daughter to overcome it when she was young? if it werent for natural health i wouldnt of been able to of had my baby girl (had a pregnancy go wrong cause i get so sick in 08/09)
Michelle answers:
You might consider seeing a pediatrician and allowing them to use their knowledge to fix your baby’s problems. Sometimes, “natural” cannot fix everything and medications are needed. Once the baby is well, you can go back to your natural lifestyle but you don’t want this to become a systemic problem because you don’t like the advice that was given. Your baby’s health comes first, your wishes are secondary.

panic attacks/heart palpitations?
heres a little about me…around 3 years ago i started suffering with panic attacks alot of councilling and i found the source of the problem, due to the fact i lost my 1st born 7 years before and never greived and my abusive partner, so since then have found a truley wonderful man who have been with now coming up 2 years, the panic attacks stopped, now recently i have had a baby he is 6 months old, whilst i was pregnant i started suffering with heart palpatations, went for all the test ecg- 24 hours monitoring-plus heart scan. came back that my left side of my heart was a little bit dialated, they wasnt worried went through child birth fine no problem it was a natural child birth aswell, had palpatations a few weeks after birth then they stopped, had to go back last week for a check up to see if the dialation was pregnancy realted, since then the palpations are back… could it be the fact of anxiety waiting for results, of the fact ive gone back to work as a night carer so lack of sleep, i have 5 children all under 9 yrs old and still take care of the family home, i do 3 nights a week, i dont drink caffinedrinks eg..coke coffee ect.. i dont drink often about once evry 8-10 weeks, my downfall is im a smoker about 10-15 a day…
whats going on there so scarey.. doctors in my local surgery told me there not life threatening there more annoying then anything eles…..
help…
Michelle answers:
You’re going to be ok. I have the same thing and all I needed to do was get rid of the stress in my life and quit caffeine. I see you don’t drink caffeinated drinks, so you are on your way! Watch out for medicines that contain it, too.
My dad gets spells of it that last for a few days and it exhausts him, but his heart doctor told him it isn’t anything to really worry about. He is on medication for the rest of his life and at some point, so will I.
If anxiety continues to be a problem (it is a huge contributor to panic attacks and heart episodes) talk to your doctor about meds for anxiety.
I really wish you the best. It isn’t fun at all!
Joseph asks…
Not VBAC Friendly…Help!!?
I had an emergency c-section (horizontal incision) in 2006 with my second child (my first was natural) because my cervix started swelling shut at 6cm (was told that they have no idea why this happened). I am now expecting #3 April 2, 2010. I am not very into the whole repeat c-section idea. Unfortunitally the nearest hospital that allows VBACs is just over 3 hours away. This is not feesable for me. I have a 5yr old and 3yr old and cannot afford to be driving there for every appt and then drive up there while I am in labor, there is just no way it will work.
I know that the hospital cannot force me to have a c-section but what should I do? Should I go along with my OB and schedule a c-section and hope I go into labor before hand? I feel like I will be missing out on a major part of the whole pregnancy experience by not going through labor. Has anyone else been in this position? Any ideas on what to do would be extremely helpful.
Michelle answers:
I’m probably wrong, but I thought that if you had a horizontal incision you can’t have a VBAC?? (SORRY!!! I’m thinking vertical!! Duh!!)
I’m in the same boat, I had an emerg c section and would like to try for a VBAC next time.
Is there someone near the hospital who can watch the kids or is there someone like family near who can watch your children while you go?
Could you arrange with your OB to have appointments with him but then have another OB deliver??
I’m sorry, good luck with everything!
