Caryn--pls clarify the 2 year PE period.

Postby claricemaala » Sun Feb 20, 2011 06:01 pm

I have read on other post that there is this "2 year PE period". What this one does is that it allows us to hold the baby longer on the subsequent pregnancy since the spiral arteries are dilated from the previous pregnancy.
If you have articles on this I would love to read them.
Thanks

Yes I did. I typed this before seeing the site. Did not know how to delete once posted. Thanks. Lots of great information. :)
