Guest guest Posted March 3, 2000 Report Share Posted March 3, 2000 Gretchen, I lived a relatively active life with CMT (cheerleading, dancing, etc.) until my first pregnancy. That threw me into a rapid decline. The pregnancy was difficult, though, as I wasn't able to keep anything down for most of the pregnancy and lost alot of nutrition. I was on meds for the nausea and also had my gallbladder removed at 20 weeks of preg. The baby is now a gifted 5 year old boy who knew every state and their capital at age 2, and now reads and writes at a 6th grade level, although he is in kindergarten! Relieved to know that the trauma didn't affect him, and he so far shows no sign of CMT (knock on wood!). I had foot problems by age 3 and walked tippy-toed by then. I pray every day that both my boys continue to stay healthy. Rhonda Subject: Kinds of stresses Hi everyone, you have all said from time to time that stress is a big contributing factor to the ups and downs of CMT. Can anyone give me concrete examples of these 'certain stresses', like whether it is work/career, the kids, husband/wife, dealing with pain, a car accident, a death in the family,moving to a new town, new house, whatever, etc? Thank you all for your insight! Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
