I'm 17wks and the doc never said anything about this. Could they have done it on my first couple of visits when blood was drawn and just didn't tell me because everything was fine. Or would they have done a special test and told me what they were testing for???

He hits himself repeatedly or plays with his hands just to stay awake. Any suggestions on how we can get him to sleep? Yes, we do a bedtime routine every day, but he still fights it.

My daughter is 6 months old and I haven't been using a highchair..the reason is I am living with my mother n law in a one bedroom apartment and its very small so I don't want to have a huge highchair in the way...well my mother keeps telling me that I need to get one now and if I don't use one she won't develop right.
I have seen some of the booster seats that you can strap into chairs...just wondering if anyone has used these and if they liked them?

My stepdaughter has ringworms, can my baby catch them from her? I'm not really sure if they are contagious.

Today, I had an appointment with my nurse and finally heard my baby's heartbeat. It's the most wonderful thing ever! I am 13 weeks pregnant and i'm so happy! At first, I couldn't believe it was the baby. Thought it was just my heart pounding so hard for being nervous but I guess not. Has anyone mom ever felt that way the first time? I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

-This is my FIRST PREGNANCY. =]

My son is 2 and skinny and his pants always fall off and not all brands have that adjustment inside the pants to make them fit. He is tall so he needs the length but when I buy him clothes that fit his height then they are too wide in the middle.

i mean if you have kids when you're really young
its harder to provide and if you wait until you're more established you run the risk of having problems. when do you think is the best time to start a family.

I have a 2 year old daughter that I am really looking forward to being able to take school shopping and dress up on the first day of kindergarten and take a picture of for her scrapbook. But with alot of schools around going to uniforms, I am afraid I might not have that chance when she is 5. I personally dont like uniforms. I think kids are individuals, and if there is not competition over clothes, they will still compete over other things, like who has the coolest packback, lunch box, etc. Her first day of school is a milstone in her life that I dont think the school system has a right to take away from me. Just like my mom got to enjoy my first day of school. Can a parent fight this? What if they don't agree with it and just send their kid to school in regular clothes?

I mean the kind that ask stupid questions like, "I'm 13 and my boyfriends 22 do you think this is a problem?" I don't get it where are their parents? When I was 13 I was worried about holding hands at lunch time. These kids are growing up way too fast. Do you agree

I'm 16 years old and I have never met my father but I finally tracked him down and his mother said that he just got married and he didn't want to speak to me because he never told his new wife that he had kids. What up with that?

I'm in the process of potty training my son. We've been working on this for about the past 3 days. He is doing ok but the main problem is that he doesn't want to tell me when he has to go he wants to just go ahead and go by himself. The problem with this is that he is having a lot of trouble getting his pants and underwear pulled down. Also for some reason he thinks he needs to take the pants & underwear completely off before he sits on the potty. This is causing him to not be able to sit down before he goes and he is getting very frustrated. Do you have any suggestions that might be helpful???

One week before your period. I know they say to try during ovulation time...2 weeks before and after. But is it still likely, one week before your period is due?
