Do you feel like you need a refresher on the Do's and Dont's of pregnancy?? I seriously feel like a moron...I can't remember hardly anything except take tylenol and heat my lunch meal LOL.

I have forgotten some things (DD#2 is going to be 5 so it has been a while since I've done this) but I just pulled out all of my old pregnancy books and have been reading them again as a reminder of the do's and don'ts. My doctor also gave me a pamphlet listing common questions and the answers.
I dunno if I've forgotten anything, but, you could say I'm probably paying less attention to the details of pregnancy this time. Not reading into every little symptom, only verifying w/ the "book" my OB gave me when necessary, etc. Also, I was reading a bunch of pregnancy books last time, and this time I'm not. I'm still focused on DD for the moment.

DD is 12 so I've forgotten a lot. Common sense stuff I remember, but some things have also changed. Drop-side cribs were still the norm when I had her!
My DS is only a year and a half and I don't remember much. My last pregnancy really tough, and I am hoping this one is a bit smoother. I am thinking that maybe that's why I don't remember too much. Maybe I blocked it out :-) I got out my Pregnancy week by week book for a refresher.
Re: 2nd (or more) time mamas...
Right! I just hope this LO will be as easy as DS was...especially the breastfeeding!
That's funny because I DO remember how to handle a newborn. It's the fetus I've forgotten about.
I have many different thoughts and worries this time around.
Me too! Although breastfeeding didn't go off as planned the first time. I am hoping that is something that goes better this time.
Well that's good. Hopefully you all can help me out when the time comes
