I haven't visited the forum for a while, but I wanted to thank members for my enlightenment regarding overuse.

Maybe I should have tried sleeping on my back more but as I like to sleep on my side that di...

<t>Hi Kelly,<br/> <br/> This is a really interesting issue. I'm lucky that here in the UK the seat belt comes across my right shoulder and therefore doesn't restrict my LOBPI. I'm aware that concessions have been made in the past for women who are heavily pregnant and I'm assuming that there may be ...
