My son's hearing is fine we have had it tested. He just seems to have selective hearing these days. Is this a stage most 10 year olds go through.

We can stick our head in the sand and pretend that kids aren't having sex and then scream about the evils of abortions. Maybe if we'd at least teach them that "pulling out" ISN'T a form of birth control there would be fewer abortions.

I am satisfied with our relationship so far. He takes gr8 care of the baby. And for the past few weeks he has been sending me fresh flowers. But when he comes back from Iraq, he will be stationed in Tennessee. I stay back in Iowa. I wanna be with him. I want us to move to the next level. Would I be making a bad decision by moving in with him? So far away?

On July fourth I had unprotected sex, I started my period on time on July 17th and it was normal for about two days and then was really light. I am now two days late for my period this month which is very unusual(I always start 28 days after the first day of my period). I have had unprotected sex twice since the fourth but he pulled out both times. Could I be pregnant? We were not planning on getting pregnant but we are ready to take care of the child and take responsibility if I am.

My guy's grandmother said that her daughter started to walk before seven months. I find it hard to believe bc my seven month old just started to "walk" using the furniture for balance. People said even that was some what early. Has anyone really seen a seven month old running around?

how long will it be before my boobs start hurting after having sex (without a condom and im not trying to get pregnant) if I am pregnant? I think I might be due for my period in a day or two because my boobs just started hurting and I havent had any other symptoms of being pregnant and I took a pregnancy test just to be safe a few days back to make sure I wasnt pregnant and it came out negative.

I got and IUD the copper one late June I had my period in July on the 10th I started. I am late and it's going on 9 days. How long should I wait until I take a home test? If I am pregnant how much of a chance will I miscarry if I have the IUD removed? I have two kids and am running out of birthcontrol options. But I don't know if I want to get my tubes tied yet. I'm 28 and would like one more child but we're not ready yet. Any answers or information will be greatly appreciated.

I have a stepdaughter who is about to turn 7 and I really try very hard to have a good relationship with her. Now before I get people jumping down my throat I know that divorce is hard on children and they often are confused by all of it, but she is horrible. I honestly don't know what to do. My husbands family put her on a pedastal and I think it is making her worse. She has a 5 year old brother who is precious and they treat him totally different. They bow to her every want and she knows how to work them. They will completely incovience everyone to make sure she gets what she wants. And the little boy just gets put on the back burner. He has no choice but to do so . his sister demands ALL the attention. She is sooo bad that when she throws hers fits and gets her way she will smile and say Thats what I thought. She tells me and her daddy that we are going to hell because my husbands isn't married to her mom any more!!!! I am to the piont where I don't want to be around her !!!! HELP!!

you say you dont trust anyone (a man you just met) to be alone with your kid(s)/baby after just meeting him for a few weeks, however, is it not the same as leaving the child with a babysitter that you just met for a few minutes?
Not sure if babysitting has changed but when I was a kid and mom and dad wanted to go out but no leave me alone they might have a teen come and stay with me. A teen they didnt really know much about.
