Pregnancy & Parenting - 17 July 2006

I was thinking of letting my parents know we are expecting at a family get together. Maybe I will do it at Christmas so I can give them a present.

What are good ideas to surpise new grandparents?

Hi. I was just writing because of my sister. She got married a little while back. She got pregnant with her first baby she has ever carried. About 6 or 10 weeks along. Well she happen too have a miscarrage last night. I would like to send her a letter of encouragement through other voices. If you have been in the same situation or have good advice for her would you please put it on here.
I have been asking God to give her baby back. No more worrying about me anymore. My time is gone and she is the one who deserves that child.
Please put your notes on here for her and I will send it too her when the last note is written.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for your time.

I am five months with twins and I am suffering with so many things, but the most annoying thing is that my nipples stay hard, extremely hard and sensitive 24HOURS A DAY! I hate it! Even putting on shirts without a bra causes me to feel icky! Are there any pregnant women or former pregnant women that had this happen to them? If so, what did you do to relieve it?

My 2 mo. old is on Zantac & Nutramigen, still spitting up excessively. Sometimes its like a fountain when he does this. He eats about every 2-3.5 hours, 3-4 oz. He is gaining weight good. We have tried adding ceral but it seems to cause him some pain with cereal. He is colicky, which it seems to have helped that a little. We hold him up for quite some time after eating, he even sleeps in a car seat some or his swing, upright with no movement and he continues to spit up even 1-2 hours after eating. I feel sorry for him becasue it seems there is nothing I can do to help him. Any ideas. I've heard about seeing a chiropractor, what do they do? I have not seen a Ped. GI should we?
Thanks!

ok so my best friend called me fri to tell me that she is pregnant again, she has a son that is 3, the guy she is sleeping with is homeless (eeeww, what a looser) the father of her son is not around at all, nor was he ever (i helped raise her kid...i was his nanny for the first 2 years of his life, he even started callin ME mommy, it got too creepy so i just couldnt do it any more). but im angry at her because she is very irresponsible (in my opinion) how are u just gonna get knocked up by some bum, and she has already decided to get an abortion (i agree with her there, but dont u think that she should have thought about BIRTH CONTROL????). i hope that she doesnt decide to keep this baby. how smart is that to have a baby with someone that is homeless, someone that is a junkie, someone that cant help in any way shape or form.....aaarrrrggggggg im just so bothered by that.

ok but do you think that im a bad person for thinking that she is STUPID for letting herself get knocked up?

OK.. he has been having issues lately (see my other recent questions if you like..) I am supposed to get a stool sample from him. I have 3 vials from the doc, but my problem is he is having such watery diarrhea that it soaks into his diaper on contact, and the samples are not supposed to come in contact with urine. Any suggestions on how I can do this? I was given a hat, and watch for when I though he was going to go, I put him on (he was on for 10 minutes) RIGHT when I took him off and got his diaper on he went.... Its like he waited to get off the hat. Please any suggestions/ helpful hints anything would be appreciated!

I am pretty sure that I ovulated on the 5th of July. I was too impatient and did a test 10 days later (One of those ones that you can do five days before your missed period). It was negative. Is it at all possible that the test was wrong? I have read so many sites that tell you that implantation happens 6-10 days after you ovulate if you conceive. In my case if I did conceive then the hormone would have shown up by the 10 day. IS this correct?

Okay I have a question, my last period started from June 13th-19th. I was ovulating and my hub and I made love, henced conceived the baby on June 25th. Now it is July 17th. I already took two pregnancy tests last week on Tuesday and Friday, and both were positive. I still dont have me period yet so i can know for sure i am pregnant now! Also i have been getting more bloating/indigestion and sometimes during the afternoon or before bedtime I feel some nausea. I have not been throwing up. I feel nauseous slightly but some ginger tea and tasting a lemon, really help me. I am more wanting to ask how many weeks am I really? and then do any of you have the bloating/indigestion feeling? I can take Tums at night as that helps me also.

My daughter has real bad diaper Rash. I've been putting cream on it and it don't seem to help. The rash it looks like the sore that you can get between your legs from sweeting and your leg rubbing together. Her rash is to the point where you can really see that its bad. Does anyone have any more ideas on what I can do for her.
