"From Pregnancy to Labor and Delivery
& Beyond..."
August 2009
Hello Everyone!

Diane Ellen
Welcome to the AUGUST 2009
Diane Ellen Newsletter!

Hope you are all having a good summer!  Think we shall keep this newsletter short and sweet! 

Due to the condition of the present economy, many of us are working more jobs, longer hours, and finding ourselves more stressed than ever.  Some of our companies are requesting we take time off without pay or we have lost our jobs.  Bankruptcies.  Foreclosures.  We are tired, scared, doing our best, worried about our finances, families, and what the future will hold.  It is understandable that some of us are much more tense than usual.  Some feel less positive than usual. 

I think it is a great time to try and BE KINDER TO ONE ANOTHER.  MORE PATIENT.  NICER.  Whether it is offering an ear to a friend or co-worker who needs to vent their fears or simply holding the door for a stranger.  Let's try and help one another through these times.  Let's help each other avoid the negative feelings of fear and anxiety and try and encourage each other with POSITIVE demonstrations of LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, COMPASSION, and KINDNESSThis newsletter now goes out to over 830+ people!  Can you imagine if 830+ people tried to be even more loving, positive, and kind towards others today???!!! That's a lot of LOVE!!!

It's weird, but I just told my friend that in the last couple of weeks I find more people are saying "Have a nice day" to me.  Out of no where.  Strangers.  Why are they saying this to me?  Maybe they already know.  These small acts of kindness don't cost a thing! And after several people say it to me, I start to feel better and think---"Maybe they really do want me to have a nice day...Maybe I will have a nice day!" 

Let's share stories of GOODNESS, ACHIEVEMENTS, and POSITIVE OUTCOMES with one another.  Did something good happen to you, your children, your family?  Email me!  Let's share our good stories with one another.  Maybe if we "think more positive... our future will become more positive".  I think this is a just test of our endurance my friends.  For now, let's try and focus more on the POSITIVE that we do have:  a New Baby or one on the way, good health, good friends and family, good weather! (and everyone knows what i mean until November 30th!). That's in this issue:  MANY POSITIVE THOUGHTS FROM ME TO YOU...LOTS OF "CONGRATULATIONS" and a somewhat-scary story for one couple with a HAPPY ENDING!  (sorry...I really did intend on keeping it short and sweet! he-he...oh well..maybe next month!)

~With Love & Friendship,
Diane

P.S.  Keep in touch with me during the month on Facebook!  Just "ask me to be your friend!"




Preterm Labor Story has a
Happy Ending!
 

Welcome Baby Boy Lachlan Craig!
          

On June 7th, 2009, Amber and Adam attended my One-Day PCT Childbirth Class.  During the class, they learned that some pregnant women experience "preterm labor" where the body goes into labor prior to 36-37 weeks of pregnancy.  Adam listened very attentively.  Days later, Amber ate some hot dogs for dinner.  Shortly after, her stomach started to bother her.  She assumed it was "gas pains"/stomach ache due to the hot dogs.  She went to bed that night not feeling well.  She woke in the morning still not feeling well.  Adam learned in my class that it isn't exactly "normal" for a pregnant woman to have gas pains or stomach aches that are timeable---or in Amber's case about every 7 minutes.  Adam insisted on calling Amber's doctor as he thought she might just be in "preterm labor" as they "just learned in class the day before!"  They were sent to the hospital and found to be contracting and dilated!  Their baby was born the next day at 32 weeks gestation weighing 4lbs 5oz.  Although the baby had to spend some time in the NICU(Neonatal Intensive Care Unit), everyone is now home and fine.  I'll let Amber tell you the rest:

"Hi Diane.  Please feel free to share our story and add it to your newsletter.  If it wasn't for your class, we would never Welcome Lachlan Craighave called my Doctor and gone to the hospital when we did!  We were very fortunate that even though Lachlan came at 32 weeks, he was perfectly healthy.  Also, when we were leaving for the hospital the only item we grabbed besides my purse and car keys was your book.  We made sure we had it and as the hospital staff was trying to stop my labor we read up on every step and referenced the book like crazy.  So not only is your class wonderful but your book is amazing too :)  We brought Lachlan home on Friday, July 17th, and the fun has begun."

*THANK YOU, AMBER AND ADAM, BOTH SO MUCH for coming into my last childbirth class to share this story with me and allowing me to share this story(and pic) with my readers.  Perhaps this will help other pregnant couples understand just how tricky spotting preterm labor can be!!! 

FYI ~ WARNING SIGNS OF PRETERM LABOR (LABOR PRIOR TO 37 WEEKS OF PREGNANCY):
  • Contractions (your abdomen tightens) every 15 minutes or more often
  • Leaking fluid or bleeding from your vagina
  • Pelvic pressure (the feeling like your baby is pushing down)
  • Low, dull backache
  • Cramps...(WHY ARE YOU HAVING PERIOD/MENSTRUAL CRAMPS IF YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR PERIOD???)
  • Abdominal cramps with or without diarrhea (TIMEABLE GAS PAINS....THAT'S JUST WRONG PEOPLE!!!)
IN AMERICA, ABOUT 1 OUT OF 8 BABIES ARE BORN PRETERM!  CALL YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER(Doctor or Midwife) or go to the hospital right away if you think you're having preterm labor, or if you have any of the warning signs. Call even if you have only one sign.
