pukaprat2 @pukaprat2 (442) • United States 20 Mar 09

expecting my fourth child

kimbos11 @kimbos11 (10) 1 Jan 08

treasurechest I'm sorry to hear about your night. It seems to me that two months is a long time to be taking Ibuprofen if you're taking it every day. I think I've heard that it can cause stomach problems. I would ask your doctor about it. Also, what is the reason you are...
