Ok...I know everyone will say go to the doctor or take a test, but I just want to know if this sounds like I'm pregnant. Ok my husband and I are trying for a baby, we had a miscarriage awhile ago and started back up trying about 2-3 weeks ago. We had sex and then about 1 day later I started to spot, then it stopped but lately I have been feeling like I'm stuffed(when you feel after you eat to much), I keep getting headaches and my body is tense. I just feel overall uncomfortable. Any advice???

I posted yesterday about morning sickness and how I was throwing up 2 days in a row after eating breakfast but felt fine otherwise. I did indicate if I did ovulate it should be too soon for morning sickness. Well this morning I tried cereal and did not throw up so I don't think I am pregnant. Here's my situation. I do believe I ovulated as I had a lot of EWCM and the twinges by my right ovary, now I'm dry down there which usually happens after ovulating by my temperatures are super low like 97.3. I'm already on day 28 of my cycle. The longest cycle I have ever had is 45 days and that was only once, usually it's 38 days like clockwork. Is there anything I can do? I want to do our FET cycle and have to do 3 weeks of BCP first but obviously can't start that until AF shows. This is the cruelest trick my body has ever done to me. It was enough going through my failed IVF, why give me pregnancy symptoms to give me hope????????????????

Why do people tell you to go to the dentist before you are pregnant? Are you not alllowed to go while you are pregnant? My husband and I have been trying for a few months. I have already seen my doc and I am taking vitamins. We are trying to do everthing right. Well, I read online (getting ready for a baby forum) to go to the dentist. I am scheduling my teeth cleaning. Also, Does the epidural hurt? When I think of having a baby it scares me because I am terrified of needles. Also, I heard if you move or jump you could be paralyzed. Is there any one else pregnant or trying to get pregnant thats terrified of the epidural?

I like to keep things neat and tidy down town. Am I going to be thought of as strange when I go into the office for an exam or when I deliver? I just don't like the "natural" look.

the world to me. My six year old son wants a trampoline and I said yes to him. I know that I give my children a lot even though they are really young. Some might say they are spoilt but I dont see that as I was an only child and got laods. My hubby goes mad as I always get them things. He is one of Five and had to wait till birthdays ans christmas. Well my question is should I get the trampoline even if my hubby said no? I did say yes to my child an his birthday is not till March so he cant wait that long. I even suggested it to be part of our other son's birthday present but hubby said he was to young to get a trampoline at 1 years old. My son wants it really badly. What should I do. Please dont be horrible with your answers. Thank you.

NEW YORK - "I was SHOCKED to see a giant breast on the cover of your magazine," one person wrote. "I immediately turned the magazine face down," wrote another. "Gross," said a third."
A poll of 4000 readers said 25% were outraged. WHAT??

I'm engaged to a wonderful women (Jane - not real name) who has an equally wonderful 5 yr/old boy (John). Unfortunately, the father (Bob) of this boy has been out of his son's life for the past 4 years - no visits, no cards, no calls, no child support - NOTHING. From what I heard of Bob, he was (maybe still is) involved with drugs and other destructive activities which is one of the reason the marriage ended. I know, I'm only hearing one side of the story, but Jane is a very open person and I have no reason to think that she is lying.
John is starting to ask about his father. Why he doesn't visit or call and wondering who Bob is. Jane is struggling with explaining to John what happened. Why Mommy and Daddy didn't get along? Why they move back to her hometown from NYC. John wants to call his "Father" and to know why Bob doesn't want to know him.

I'm not looking for legal advice, but how do you explain this to a 5 yr/old and not have him think he did anything wrong?

Hiya.
My friend is 7 months pregnant with her first child. She is 18 and has had a turbulent pregnacy. She's been bleeding constantly for the last 7 months. The midwife has told her that the baby will be premature.
She has recently moved in a flat and wants to decorate it. In my opinion I don't think this will be a good idea because her womb is already weak and by stretching up to paint, this may cause her womb to rupture or something along those lines. Myself and another friend are now painting her frontroom and bathroom (whilst she is away on holiday) as a present. How can I explain the dangers of decorating whilst heavly pregnant. (If indead there are any.)
I would greatly appreciate any help on this matter. Serious answers only please.
Information websites may also be helpful if possible.
Thankyou in advance.
