Ok. Some of you have answered my ?'s before, so I must tell you that I took a hpt last night (8 days before period is due). It was negative. Of course I know it was probably too early, but my symptoms are still the same (feeling bloated and heavy, sore breasts, slight pain in one or both sides, tired, etc.). I understand that these are also pms signs, but I usually don't get these until a couple of days before period. Do you think I just jumped the gun and tested too early? Do you think there is still a chance I'm pregnant and just need to calm down, wait it out, and test later? Sorry, I'm just so anxious about getting pregnant.

Ok, i'm 2 1/2 months pregnant. When my boyfriend found out he was happy about it and accepted it. We had started to make plans and everything was going good. Just over a week ago we told his mom that i'm pregnant. She seemed ok with it and kept saying "I hope it's a girl!" A couple days later my boyfriend went over there to help fix her lawn mower and when he got back he was really distant to me but I didnt really think anything of it, I just went to bed. He came in and layed down and told me he can't handle having a baby and wants me to get an abortion. I flipped. I can't do that. Then him and I worked it out and I wasnt going to get one. On Sunday we went to his mom's place and she asked him if we were keeping it, he said we are. Then she started on me saying im ruining his life and everything he had planned for himself. Im being selfish keeping this baby, and all I want to do is play house. Also she is saying that I planned this to trap him. Now he wants to abortion again......

or we also like Malachi qorbon turnbull CAILEAN aidan turnbull or Cailean Azariah turnbull . Cailean is scottish thats my husband heritage. i wanted to include this bec. his mother died last year and his mother was realy proud of this. we could spell it this way (collon) but i think cailean is more unique. what do you think of these names? most of these names came from the bible.
If its a girl we are going to name her Mckenzie Joanne , Joanne is after my husband sister that died couple years ago.

My wife died 7 years ago.We had a daughter Madeline(age 7)and a son Jeremy(age 2).A few years ago I married again.My new wife had 3 kids.Now the children are Charles(15),Madeline(14),Rose(12),Jeremy(9) and Alison(7).They all get on really well with each others.A few days ago I caught Charles and Madeline kissing and touching each other in Madeline's room(the girls share one room and the boys share another).According to law they are brother and sister but actually they don't have common parents.I asked them and they told me they love each-other and they have the right to be a boyfriend and a girlfriend.Anyway I don't know how should I react.I think it's wrong but can I prevent it somehow?Or maybe they will like eahc-othe for a few months and then will stop?Tell me what do you think.

My baby girl just turned 5 months, I wanted to know what kind of feeding schedule moms have them on. I know she is supposed to be drinking 6-8 oz of milk. She will only drink 3-4 oz of milk and then 1 hour later wants 2-4 more. I need help getting her on some kind of schedule. She is gaining her right weight and healthy, but I am fixing her a bottle almost every hour. Help please. She has started rice cereal, loves it, but then quits drinking as much milk

I don't feel that I have a bond with my 4 year old son. From the day he was born, I haven't really felt a connection. My heart was set on having a girl but when it turned out to be a boy my heart was broken. Now he drives me crazy and we don't get along very well. I feel nothing emotional for him. Does anyone else feel the same way?

Today was the 1st day of back to school for my daughter (4th grade) and she was fine all this morning and up until I walked her to class and hugged her, at which point she broke down into tears telling me that she didn't want me to go and felt like she needed to vomit. I told her that she had to go to school and before she knew it I would be there to pick her up. I calmed her enough to go to class (which she HAD to) and am wondering this question.....should I suprise her by showing up to her lunch today or do you think that would make it worse for her? I really don't know what to do, I wasn't expecting this kind of reaction from her!!

how long after a missed or delayed period should i take a preg. test? because i know first reponse is suppose to detect 1 day before your missed period, which i dont know if its true. do you think after 1 week of a missed period, a preg test would give me accurate reaading??? i have been cramping every once in a while for the past 3-4 days. i have been stressed out and under a little depression for the past month. do you think this has something to do with it??? if im not worrying about pregnancy, i always find something else to worry about. its frustrating

I've been helping my spouse take of his child for years now. This summer when the mother dropped him off I barely recognized him. He has gained 25 pounds in five months. Is this weight gain normal for a child? He is 5 years old and 70 pounds now. I know some little boys are stocky (spelling) but this is all flab. When he is with us we try to incorporate some exercises and healthy eating. However when he gets back home the mother resorts to bad habits. He now has asthma due to the weight and everyone smoking in the house. To top this all off he has made comments like "mommy feed me too much junk food and I threw up" or "mommy told me not to worry until I become an adult" He starts school soon and he's getting worried that the other kids will start to pick on him. We have bought up these concerns to his mother who only responded with "It's genetics" or "I can't control who smokes in the house". Can this type of behavior be reported to CPS or does his mother have to right to do this?

Can you tell me if this normal or not. I started my period on the 15th of this month and yseturday when I changed my tampon there was a big blood clot on it, then while I was peeing I passed another blood clot about the size of a half dollar. I actually felt it come out of me. I know women have blood clots when they have their period but is having that size of a blood clot normal? My period will be regular for awhile and then go irregular, I get it sometimes 2 times in one month. (My period before this was on July 15th to the 21st, but I also had it on June 30th -July 5th) Feburary and March I never got a period and then in june I had it April, May and June and got it on or right around the 3rd. What is the blood clot thing all about. Do you think there is something wrong and if so what do you think it could be. I had an utrasound done in March when my period didn't start for the 2nd month in a row, they found nothing wrong w/me. Is there something their something they are
