Welcome to StorkNet's Pregnancy Complications Cubby

According to Laurie Rich, author of When Pregnancy Isn't Perfect, each year almost 25% of expectant patients will have one or more complications of pregnancy not including c-sections. If you find yourself a part of these statistics, take a deep breath, try to relax, and then learn everything you can about your situation.       º  The Holidays Are Still a Time of Fun and Cheer--Even on Prescribed Bedrest Prescribed bed rest needn't isolate expectant mothers in their bedrooms or to one easy chair in the family room. With a little creativity, moms on prescribed bed rest can add meaning and joy to the holiday season not only for themselves but also for friends, family and the new little one on the way.       º  Special Offer to Join Our Pregnancy Complications Forum We are happy to announce that we are offering a free membership to our Pregnancy Complications forum at www.storknotes.com.
