Steroid Shot for Lung Development

I have been on semi-bedrest since I was about 26 weeks for having contracations, not dilating just contractions!

Disc Protrusion / Herniated Disc

Hi moms, I was just diagnosed with a disk protrusion abultting the left root which caused severe back pain, I couldn't even walk because the pain radiated into my left leg .

When I ask him what is going on in school he tells me that "I feel like I am in a Peanut's...

Had Success in Treating Ezcema Without Steroids?

I am pulling my hair out as we speak - I've been on a strict diet for two weeks now without ALL theese and his condition is getting worst. He is oozing horribly at night and itchy - progressively in the past 4 days. Benadryl does not seem to help. Has anyone...
