and i am 36 weeks pregnant with our second daughter... my daughter has been sleeping through the night for a while now but it seems this last month she's been waking up like every night wanting to be held and cuddled and she takes horrible tempertantrums and screams at the top of her lungs if i don't pick her up i thought at first it was her teething she's gotten like 6 teeth all in a 4 month period but now im wondering if all this telling her about sissy in mommy's belly and sissy coming soon has had some affect i believe children understand alot more than what we give them credit for what do ya'll think? has anyone else been through this (im sure everyone has) and if so what did you do?

OK here we go. I'm 9 weeks pregnant and am having some major anxiety issues. I think for the worse. I'm worried that something will go wrong or is wrong. My first appoitment went very well. I saw the baby :-) and the heartbeat. However, I am scared that when I go back they will give me bad news and or tell me there is no heartbeat. I'm so annoyed by all this. And I have no idea how to make this go away. Has anyone else been in fear that there baby is gone or won't make it or something will go wrong?? HELP! G

I have an 8 year old little girl and I can't seem to get her to be quite in school. She has no problem finishing her work, but she is constantly in trouble for talking. I have tried punishments, ie. grounding, taking away privalleges, spankings and I have also tried possitive reinforcement, ie. awards, get to go to do something fun. But non of these methods seem to work. The teachers always tell me that she is a good student and would be even better if she could refrain herself from talking. Any advise?

My partner and I are trying to have a child. I did Artificial Insemination last week and I am suppose to start my period on the 21st. I hope I am pregnant but I have been having symptoms and I don't know if it is because I might start my period or could I be pregnant. However I have noticed that I am bloated alot (I cannot buckle my jeans) , my breats are bigger and tender, I am getting cramps, and moody. . I have done some research basically it goes either way. I can be pregnant or I could start my period. Are there any other sympomts I should be looking for? I did the insemination the day I was ovulating but could there be a chance it didn't work and if so why? HELP! Any advice can help.

I think that my two year old may be slightly color blind. Mostly it is him mixing up blue and green. he consistently can tell the difference between red and yellow and pinks, and white and black, but when I show him blue and green side by side he just looks at me as if I'm stupid.

I'm due very soon..August 29th YAY :-) and I'm terrified of breastfeeding. I have very very sensitive nipples and, frankly, I'm nervous about the pain. It is VERY important that I breastfeed since my mother and paternal aunt both have breast cancer (breastfeeding reducing my chances of getting breast cancer) and I know that breastfeeding my baby will be best for her nutrition as well. Does anyone have very sensative nipples and still breastfed? How did you cope?

Where is the line? How much is bleeding and how little is spotting. I am 6 wks pregnant. I started spotting 2 days ago. I was passing clots without heavy bleeding. The bleeding has gotten a little heavier to where I have to ware a pad, but its not filling the pad up. I went to the doctor yesterday and they did an ultrasound. The baby is still there. I haven't heard the heart beat yet. And they said that I was two days off, I should be 6wks 6days but I'm 6wks 4 days. Thats according to my first ultrasound last week and the one they did yesterday. The nurse said that the sac had changed but she didn't know what it was doing, it could be good or bad. I could just be one of the women who has a period during pregnancy because it started at the same time I would have started my period. And when I'm not pregnant I do have clots during my period. They took my blood to check my hcg levels and I won't know anything until tomorrow. Has this ever happened to anyone? What happened?

My ex told me he would take me to court over our daughter if I ever get a new boyfriend. (We currently have no legal arrangement.) Meanwhile, he goes out and does whatever he wants, with whoever he wants, and it's ok. He says he he would do it because he wouldn't be able to handle me being with someone else. What do you think? ( I mean, other than the fact that I got involved with a total loser...)

I had to take the plan b (emergency contraception) a few days ago because the condom we were using didn't work. I took it two hours after it happened (I know you're supposed to do it within 72 hours), and did the second pill 12 hours later like you're supposed to. I guess I'm just wondering...would it be a good idea to take a pregnancy test, just to make sure, and how long should I wait before I do that? I've never had this happen before and I'm not sure about this stuff. Thanks!

Hi, I just wanted to know which month is the deadline for abortion.

these 7 1/2 months have been good for me: My weight gain isn't too bad, although I may call the Guinness Book of World Records for my humongus belly, I haven't been overly emotional, but I always see women blaming so much on hormones. When my 1st child was born 13 yrs ago I was walking on the clouds. I know every one is different, but please share your experience and were you hormonally overwhelmed after the birth of your baby?

Why does society put such a huge pressure on people to have children? I feel that if one does not want to have children then it is okay not to have children. Family, friends, and people should not put the pressure on to change that.
