I'm 38 wks pregnant, I havent had mood swings or been irritable. For about 2 days I've been crying ALOT, and been in either an extermely bad mood or really really sad. I really want the baby here, and I'm wondering if maybe I'm starting to get PPD. I have no idea whats wrong with me, but I'm worried that all this saddnes and crying is going to be increasingly bad for my unborn son and i dont know what i should do or what to do...can someone help?

My daughter is ten months old and I believe she has a yeast infection. I called her ped. But they have not returned my phone calls. Something like monistat. I always heard you get yeast infections from sex. But I guess not. Could I try some or should I wait to hear from ped.

I have 3 sweet boys...My husband and I are toying with the idea of stopping at 3 or trying for that girl...We don't want to spin sperm....or anything like that....but I also think of Jerry Lewis having like 7 boys before having a girl....we're not going that far...

We definitely know that our 4th will be the last...but what are the chances of a girl...are some men just destined to make boys....??

Are there any good opinions for baby girl brews...??

What's wrong with putting a little girl ( 3 yrs) in a little simple puff sleeved black dress with a white collar? I bought one as a present for my little neice, but my mom says I should buy another color. I think it is really cute and sweet. I really dislike little girls in pink.

Im terrified of needles! i scream whenever i get an butterfly I.V.. I'm terrified of going into labor as it is, and petrified of getting the epidural. , i know im better off getting it than enduring the labor naturally and i know it'll help ease the pain from labor but what about the pain from the shot itself? I know theres alot of pain in my future but can sombody ease my mind about this? Can anyone describe like on a scale of 1-10 how bad theirs hurt and/or give me advice on how to get my mind off the needle and pain while its in progress?

My LMP was 07/19, so I would technically be due 08/16. During last month, my bf would just pullout. I've been having some cramping, but to no avail, no period. I was just wondering the possibilities of pregnancy...and when should I take a test to be sure...

I am 34 weeks pregnant and have the most extreme lower back pain I have ever felt in my life!!! The only thing that seems to give me some sort of relief is bend my body in half, I wish I could bring my feet to my head!!! Baths dont work, and I dont know what to do. I feel like crying it hurts so bad. My doc says it's normal that the baby is just in my pelvis. I think I am going to end up w/ back labor w/ this one. I did not feel this pain w/ my daughter. Please help I am desperate for some sort of relief the more answers the better. I can't imagine her getting any bigger I just want to rip my spine out!! It's right on my tailbone. My 4 year old feels so bad for me she keeps trying to rub my lower back for me, it's precious but not working. Please Help!!!

I am a housewife and pregnant with twins, and would like to know what are the specific duties of a nanny, and if I need to hire a housekeeper as well? Right now I just have a cleaning lady. I am disabled, so I need some help around the house.

I have a 3 year old daughter who is a pretty cool kid half the time. The other half of the time she is very mean to her older brother (age 5) and she is also very bossy and whiney. Sometimes I think she talks in a constant whine. I thought it was a discipline problem but then as different tactics I tried had little to no difference of outcome, I'm starting to think its a personality trait. I have noticed that it is only her brother that she is mean to. She seems to play very well with other children. What I am trying to do now is ignore the whining and tell her that I'll talk to her when she speaks calmly. Sometimes this works but its hard to know what to do. If only kids came with instructions, LOL. Is that the fun of it or what!?

My last period was 7/1 really light for 3 days. the past few days I have been spotting off and on have had horrible cramps so I thought I had started my period but everytime I think I start the bleeding has stopped. I've been really sick to my stomach and have been eating chewable maalox tablets like candy. I was at Walmart earlier and just on an offbeat thought I bought a pregnancy test--just a walmart brand cheapy because I thought it was waste of money since I have Polycystic ovarian sydrome and can't get pregnant without medical help supposably. I had a gastric bypass a year ago and lost 200 pounds but still weigh about 200. But the pregnancy test came back positive! I almost died. I went out tonight and bought a name brand test just to double check it. That test also says pregnant..I have another test because my hubby swears I am suppose to test when I wake up so I will do as he says but will be calling my Dr at 8am when the office opens.Can you get 2 false positive tests?
