The result is my one breast is now bigger in size than the other. My baby has been only on breast feeding for six months and now is 6 1/2. Will the breast come back 2 same size or no?

Was it an accident.... or planned out? What happened with your baby weight? Did you end up gaining more with that one since you didnt lose all the weight yet? Im just kinda curious... did you prefer it that way or wished to wait a while in between. Just anything you can add about your experience would be great!

My 4 year old son got a set of motorcycle print sheets. I know they are not a high quality material. He loves them, but says they hurt his skin. I've washed them several times.

I need some good, healthy meals for my 1 year old. I make sure to give him a balanced dinner but I don't want to repeat myself to death and give him the same thing over and over. He will eat practically everything but I don't want his tummy to get too upset. Any good ideas will be appriciated. We do give him Chicken Nuggets and Fish Sticks, however they are baked NOT fried. Again, any ideas would be appriciated.

Thank you!

He's 9 mos. old and I don't feed him when he wakes. I let him cry it out/give him his pacifier. I don't know why he continues to wake at that hour. After I let him cry it out, he usually sleeps until 6;30 or so, which is fine. How do I break the cycle of 5 am wake up???

Yet another pregnancy question. I'm on the patch. Which was due to come off Saturday. And the normal period begin 3 to 4 days after. The day it came off, my boyfriend and I had intercourse and the condom broke. He did ejaculate inside me. I didn't have a plan B but was told to take a full pack of birth control pills, as that is the equivalent. I did to be safe. Its the third day and I haven’t started my period, but I’ve been having menstruation-like cramps the last two days. How worried about pregnancy should I be since I "should" be starting my period and I took the pack of pills?

I'm due to have my baby any time. Like 98% of the women I've talked to have encouraged me to get an epidural. I'm terrified of having a needle stuck into my spinal column. There is always a slight chance of paralysis, right? I could possibly jump or twitch when they put the needle in me or something. Anyone else scared or was scared of it?

He is already 2-years-old. I think it's time for him to learn to fire a gun but my wife says we have to wait until he can fully walk. I say BS. Any thoughts?

When in your pregnancy did you start getting food cravings? And have anyone never experienced cravings with your pregnancy?

I know... I am obsessing, but I am soooo anxious to have a baby it's awful. I get Mittelschmerz almost every month around the time of ovulation with all of the other ovulation symptoms. I have heard that you can get the CM, the change in cervical position, periods, the whole shabang but still have anovulatory cycles. Because I am obsessed and consumed with my own fertility, I just have to know if I am really ovulating. What are the chances that I would get Mittelschmerz and still not ovulate??? :-D

I know people think it's cute when their child learns new words. I am a mother myself, but what I don't understand are the parents who think you actually want to have a 15 minute conversation with their three year old over the phone when you can barely understand anything the kid is saying. I love kids. I just don't want them calling me. Does anyone else feel this way or is it just me?

I am working with my 3year old daughter to go to the bathroom in the toilet, but she is having a hard time. She knows when she needs to go, but will just sit on the toilet (with a small seat), and nothing happens. Then when she gets off, and I put her diaper back on, she poops. I thought maybe it would be easier for her to go on a little plastic potty, so her feet are touching the ground. Have any of you tried both methods, and if so which way works better, or does it vary with each child?

I was just wondering. I know it probably depends on how far along the female is in the pregnancy. Can you all just give me some ranges?
