Morning all.

Rose - I have the same problem with perms. I have straight hair (we're talking straight as a ruler). When I was young, my Mom hated my straight hair, so would do a home perm on it (I was about 12 or so). This is how it would play out. Day 1 - tight tight Shirley Temple type curls. Day 2 - nice wave. Day 3 - light wave. Day 4 - dead straight. My Mom would force me to undergo this twice a year, thinking it was the weather, time of year, brand used to get the curls in, etc. The last time I had a perm was when I was 16 - $60 in a salon (I just about had a herat attack, I was stingy even then) - it lasted 3 days. I went back to the salon to show them & they insisted I had done something to straighten it - perms don't come out that easily. At least that convinced my Mom it was just my goofy hair. Of course, then she bought me a crimper for xmas. At least that would last for a couple of hours - good through dinner & half way through a show. I never tried to dye my hair, I can only imagine what it would do to dye.


Lolcat - talk to the women's groups again - you don't want money from them (although that would be nice), you want them to use their media contacts, & they should have some. You want the story to be about the evil US insurance company (tied closely with the mixed up banking system that just went kerplunk) is causing you all this grief. & because of their evil greed, a 9 months pregnant woman is being deported. And she's American! And she's a nurse!

Did you ever contact the hospital board of directors? They should be informed of their billing dept which took its own sweet time contacting you about outstanding bills. If they took the insurance company info as the source of payment when you went into hospital, they should have known then that they weren't gonna get their money & should not have let you leave without presenting you with a bill. Their error, they can deal with the consequences. You gave them the insurance company's info in good faith - they should have informed you in a timely manner, not years after the fact. Insist on an extension to repaying the debt, which you are doing in good faith, even tho it's their screw-up. Maybe contact their fundraising dept & mention that their donors might not be too keen on this story getting out of how incompetent their billing dept is.

I'm off to go get some groceries, even tho I'd rather stay in bed. Got a weird pain in my right side. Had it for 2 days now. Can't figure out if it's related to this silly cough that doesn't wnnna go away (the spot hurts when I cough) or if I bruised a rib when I was tossing and turning in bed (I've been bruised by my comforter before, so who knows).

Have a good day all!

Is it normal to feel super nausous after week 30 of pregnancy?

For the last two weeks I've felt rotten. I'm having issues keeping weight on. She's still kicking like crazy, so I know she's alright, but I thought it was supposed to be limited to the first while, not the end. I definately did not get this with DS

Happy birthday Ricki911

Bg a friend of mine went through that with her pregnancy of a girl. She was nauseous for the first 4 months and then the last 2 and was throwing up throughout her contractions and labour, she felt worse for the nurses dealing with her than the actual vomiting as she was used to it by then Hope you feel better
