Both my daughter and son in law have to undergo further blood tests because both of their earlier blood tests show them both to have borderline haemoglobin. I would assume this means to be a bit anaemic. Presumably the baby would be O.K. Has anybody else heard of this and is it something to...

Thank-you for answering my posting Kimbot and Becky. That has certainly put my mind at rest. I wish you both all the best for the remainder of your pregnancies and the births. Angela

It's worried grandma again, asking anyone how much weight on average should be gained in pregnancy. My daughter is approaching 18 weeks pregnant now and although I haven't seen her lately, she tells me people say she looks thinner, although her boobs have grown and she does have a little bump...

:roll: Many thanks Ashley for that advice. I shall tell her to do that. Best wishes for a healthy pregnancy and baby. Angela

:( I am a grandmother to be for the first time and have posted here before. My daughter Melanie is now 4 months pregnant and has suffered from heartburn from almost the day of conception ! I don't live near to her, so I worry a lot about her pregnancy. She has had appalling heartburn...

As a grandmother to be (my first grandchild due early August), I find I am probably worrying myself unnecessarily and seem to be more anxious than my daughter is (maybe it's her calming pregnancy hormones kicking in!) She is 3 months pregnant and has only had two medical checks. The first...

Thanks Laura for welcoming me to this site. I will be posting some questions on early pregnancy very soon. Kind regards Angela

Don't know whether a grandmother to be can use this site, but I'm sure you will soon tell me !! If I am accepted, there are loads of questions I want to ask as I seem to be more worried about the pregnancy than my daughter who is expecting my first grandchild. Before I go wittering on...
