i went into the clinic for a checkup and my doctor told me I was in preterm labor and that I was dialated to a 2. I was then admitted into the hospital for 3 days while they they stopped the labor. My question is, I never felt any labor pains or symptoms that indicated that I was in labor. Is there a good chance I will start labor again, and will i be able to identify it if I do start labor again? What are some signs besides the obvious ones? I am almost 34 weeks along and on bed rest now until I deliver.

I don't know if I am pregnant yet, I will know in a week or so, but still the ovulation tests show no ovulation. My last period was on the 2nd, and it says the 11-21st I should ovulate, but I still have not, and I don't think I will. Can you ovulate when you are pregnant? i don't think you can because if a egg is fertilized, another can't be released right?

I am 7.5 months pregnant and have heard of WIC, but I do not know much about it. Do you use that program? I read on the website that you have to have a medical note from a doctor to get it. Is it food stamps? What do you know about it?

We are traveling together for 5 hr flight. Should I bring her with me to the bathroom or do I let her stay in her seat? Should I bring valuables with me (laptop)? Do I ask another passenger to keep an eye on her?

The people at WIC say that if babies drink water it will shut down their kidneys, why would they say that if it's not true???

I am going to visit my cousin and her family in a couple of weeks and I need some gift ideas for her 2 kids. Her stepson is 4 and her daughter is 18 months. What would be good to bring them, but also easy to travel with? I was thinking clothes, but thats too boring. Books maybe, but does anyone have any suggestions for their ages. I know that they already have a lot of books so I don't know if thats even a good idea. Thanks in advance.

My daughter had to get a physical today with her pediatrician. She's 13. When the doctor saw her weight on the chart (109 lbs) she said that "her weight at this very moment is average but if she eats ANYMORE than whats she's eating now, she'll be overweight!" My daughter is 5'3 and wears a 14 slim in jeans. She can't get any skinnier without being anorexic. Unfortunately she said it in front of my daughter. Since the appointment, I've had many family members tell her to ignore the doctor because she's full of crap. But she seems very upset by it. So upset in fact that she was watching what she ate for dinner. How do I fix this situation, besides finding a new pediatrician?

He will only pee in the toilet but no poop. My sister works full time and he starts kindergarten. Still in pull ups!!! I think he likes his butt wiped to be honest but he can do that on his own. Also, he has ADHD.

I gave my boyfriend head but there was no fluid that came out when I was doing that. When we decided to have sex, he pulled out before he cummed. But there is still precum. Since it didn't come out when I was giving head it had to come out when we were having sex. I know it hasn't been a week since I had sex and I'm not really worried. I'm just curious. I've been reading where precum can get you pregnant but some says it can't.

I don't want no smart comments saying I should know this stuff if I'm having sex. I've had many sex classes in elementary, middle, and high school. They all say you can. But I'm reading somewhere you can't.

I'm just confused.

We're watching a show about a family that had twins and wanted "one more" (via in vitro) and they were "blessed" with 6 children. There are families with 18 children. How many children is too many children for one family to have? Is it anybody's business but theirs?

Does a baby always fuss when he/she has an ear infection. My baby has been pulling at her ear lately...not constantly but a lot. She's 3 and a half months. She isn't fussy or running a fever...could this be an ear infection or does she simply just happens to do this at times?

My sister's kid (6) plays video games that are rated M. (Resident Evil...etc). He also listens to violent music and watches horror movies. Would you allow your children who are so young to do this?

Ok this is weird. I went to the clinic this afternoon and I was told by my doctor that I was healthily 5 months pregnant and told to use prenatal vitamins. I found it weird because I didn't have any symptoms or signs what so ever. I was never nauseated nor did I crave for food or seem tired. What made me go to the clinic was because I thought that gas was makeing me very bloated when all the while I was pregnant. And not to mention an itchy abdomen but no stretchmarks. My doctor found it weird also that I didn't have any sign's and told me I was just lucky... Any explanation on how that could be???

I am having a baby shower for a friend. We are going to a pottery shop and painting a mirror for her. Everyone needs to chip in $10 for the mirror, how would I put this on the invitation?? I just don't want people to show up and be like Oh, we didn't know we had to pay anything, or to think it's more expensive and not buy a gift for her. Thanks

is it possible when FIRST starting birth control to have breakthrough bleeding..ive only been taking it for 8 days now...the blood is sometime slightly present when i wipe, once it was fairly decent enough to need a panty liner, but other than that i only seen it if i used a tampon to check for blood, its very little amount and in the same place on the tampon...
what im asking is it normal to bleed so little its only noticable when i use a q-tip to check for blood? its just barely blood on there..but bright red,sometimes a red/pink color
