Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do for short term child care while my sitter takes maternity leave?

I don't have any family nearby that I would trust with my kids and I just moved to a new community a few months ago and don't know anyone. We only have two neighbors in our area and neither of them have children.

Also, it will be during the school year, so using a high school student will not work either.

Any suggestions would be most helpful. My kids will be 5 and 1 at the time.

I had sex while on my period and I have to wait about 2 more weeks to find out if I'm pregnant but... I'm sleepy quite often, seem to urniate a little more frequently, breasts a little bigger, slightly bloated. my concern is these are period symptoms also. Should I take a test now (b/c I'm inpatient) or try to hold out another 2 weeks? ( Iam of age I just need another women's opinion) Thnks

I hate a cat and I am expecting to have my first child in October. My grandfather is really afraid that my cat will harm my baby. My cat isnt the curious type of cat though. She doesnt really come around people exspecially if it is loud, but I've been hearing things about cats harming babies. Can someone please give me some advice because I really dont want to get rid of my cat.

I gave her the advise to get an abortion, so she could have her life back again. She said she couldn't kill her baby. I would like your opinion as to whether this is killing or not when the fetus is only 3 weeks. This girl was going to go to college and make something of herself. Now she's going to have a life of sufferring. What would you advise her? I'd like to show her people's opinions.

Lust leads to sex/Intercourse. Even on pills or condom bursted, a girl gets pregnant. The best way to avoid pregnancy is not doing sex. How ever given the lust factor , sex happens.

Girls is pregnant- Boy looses his job- Boy does not have money to afford child neither the tension involved in the whole process.Even if child gets born, he will be born in all the tension, anxiety and hand to mouth life.

Infact girl also dont want child at this stage.Girl took all pills on time. Given the lust factor, girl also couldnt control and did intercourse passionately.

My only question: Whose fault ?

Boy's fault that he did intercourse

or


Nature's fault (Lust which nature/god have given to us)

I'm 14yrs and while I was little my dad practicly put me through hell and back.He's an alcoholic so when he split with his first girlfriend(I was probably 5,she later became my 4th grade teacher)he turned to alcohol.Same with his last which lasted I'll say 1 1/2 yrs.He lost his girlfriend and one of his friends and so he agian turned to alcohol.Even though he didn't live with us,I had to watch him go through all of this.There we periods where he was so bad that he couldn't get a job a was living with us,which stressed my grandma out to the point where I was afraid she would actually leave and never come back.It was that bad.He's still a victom of the bottle but he's back on his feet. Anyway,my real problem is that I am now terrified of guys.Mainy guys at school.I'm scared of them because I'm afraid if I get close to anyone,they'll hurt me like my father did.I just need to find a way to deal.can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

Is there any complication if a pregnant person travels via airplane for 6 to 8 hours trip. Is it okay any time during pregnancy or is it risky during certain periods of pregnancy?

I am 20 weeks pregnant, just received a call from my nurse about 3 hours ago - stating that my test was 76% - and that it was abnormal with a possibility for the baby to be born with down syndrome. She said an ultrasound or amio test are the 2 ways of finding out if the illness is 100 % present in the baby - with the amio being the most effective test. She also mentioned that abnormality in the test may not be anything because most test are abnormal but turn out to be nothing in the end.
I can not even concentrate at work - i don't know what the outcome will be - I have an ultrasound scheduled friday aug. 18th.
Has any experienced this or do you know of any friends who had to deal with this?

I find teen pregnancies very disgraceful. Who agrees?
In your opinion who is to blame? Parents, school friends, themselves, not enough info.
I find the whole concept of teens even having sex under 17 disgraceful!

I usually ovulate around day 17 as I have a 34 day cycle. I've taken an ovulation kit test every day for the last 10 days and there hasn't even been a faint line on the test indictating I was close to ovulating. I'm not pregnant because I've taken two pregnancy tests to see. Is it possible I'm having an anovulatory period? I've taken my temperature everyday and it ranges from 96.9 to 97.4 being the highest.. I'm usually pretty regular but now I'm worried.
