Since my cycles start as early as day 23 to the normal day 28 it is hard to predict ovulation. Dr. put me on clomid days 6 to 10. I think i ovulated either day 16/17 since on day 18 my temp went up to 98.6. Started spotting on day 24 (temp went down), day 25 temp went back up and has remained. The spotting stopped. It's day 28...no period. And all 4 of the hpt say negative. What's going on??

I am just curious to know what your childs first word(s) were and how old they were when they said it? How long before they were really talking?

My son just turned one. He says "MaMa" "DaDa" and "YumYum"

i have an eight month old son and iam 7 months pregnant i am considering trying a bit of swimming to relax me as i have a constant sore back and legs. anyway my question is should i take my son with me or leave him with his grandma for an hour? would it be wise to take him and get him used to the pool, before i put hi in swimming lessons? it's an indoor pool!

There are only 6 kids in the whole school with allergies and NO ONE can take nuts "of any kind"!!!!!!!! Personally, I think it is obsurd.

Hi, I think I might be pregnant, but I'm not sure so I'd appreciate your opinions.

I have been pregnant 6 times in the past so I usually know when I'm pregnant, the sysmptoms are always the same, mood swings, sore boobs, skin changing etc etc
Before anyone says do a test, I've done three ... all negative BUT I know from experience that tests dont work with me until I'm as far gone as 10 weeks.
My symptoms are (in order of when they came on) tiredness all the time, nausea, then 2 weeks later, ever so slight tender breasts, now - I've retained enough water to fill a swimming pool. I'm normally a size 10/12, at the min I cant even get into size 14 clothes. I can feel a swelling in my lower abdomen... but surely I shouldnt if I'm only a few weeks pregnant.

The reason I'm so confused is that my hubby and I only started trying a week ago, yet these symptoms came on before that! My last period was earlier than expected and lighter than normal... yet, heavier than spotting!
Any ideas?

I bottlefed my babies, majority breastmilk, but never nursed directly. I cannot imagine loving them anymore than I already do. Does anyone beleive that bottle/formula feeding parents do not love and bond with their children like breastfeeding mothers do? I can't get it. Love is love. I understood what their cries and babble meant before they could even speak...half sleep, down the hall, three rooms away, I could decipher the cry that meant "I'm poopy" from "I'm hungry" or "Hurry!! I'm poopy and hungry!!"

I looked into their little eyes and could read their thoughts as I held them and fed them their bottles. They read mine too. We shared telepathic laughter, baby smiling with milk oozing down their chin. I have taught my youngest simple games and silly sounds that we alone share, our special things we do. When she sees me, she goes "bbbbrrrrrrrt gooo!" and I go "gooooooo bbbbrrrrttt!!" And we burst into laughter. She's nine months
How can anyone negate a mother's bond with her baby?

I'm 13 and others have said that I'm growing too quickly for my age. While most other girls my age are staring at boys and gushing over boy bands, I'm writing a song or a story that will terrify them. While most others are concerned about touching up their makeup during lunch, I am thinking of questions that no one but God could truly answer. While others are out hanging out with eachother after school, I am at home searching the Internet for the few of my questions that can be answered. But the ones that can't that are based on beliefs (such as "Where did we come from?") continue to haunt me. Don't get me wrong... I have my outbursts where I just want to be a normal teenager, but they never truly last. Do others think of this, or am I the only one my age?

I know once you read this you will prob. think that something is wrong with me or that i am not grateful... NOT TRUE. Bad as it is...im ready to have this baby and these last weeks are dragging. My mother in law is driving me insane and dont realize she's doing it!!!! She calls and say "did you have MY baby yet", oh I cant wait to see MY baby, when my baby is born, you better get in line cuz im holding him first, what else do we need for my baby. (not to mention, I barely got to buy anything for my baby cuz she went and bout everything you could possibly need!!!!) Im appreciate her and all that she does, I do....but how do you deal with a mother in law who you already know is going to be there every second and wanting to hold the baby all day. Did I mention she was moving in with my husband and I in october. Help....how do i not let this affect our relationship, which was good.

It felt like the baby moved down or something but I'm not really sure. Also when I came home I went to pee and when I wiped, I noticed a white discharged mixed with a snot like discharge. What could this be? Did I lose my mucous plug?? Is labor starting soon?? Someone help me out. This is my first pregnancy.

Alot of answers that say my body is not ready yet, let things go on their on and so forth. Reason for question is because my baby is measuring at 41 weeks, head 38 weeks, stomach 31 weeks, legs 31 weeks. OVER the 90th %tile. Maybe i can get some different answers? Yea, he wont come still until he's ready but he weighs 8lbs 8 oz now. Midwife concerned about nerve damage in the shoulders so talking about doing a C-section. Would really like to go natural, but if there is anything to do to help go natural, i was willing. Sex....been doing that 3 times a day for the last week and a half. Cleaning....took things up to the nursery I just should never lift. walked....not much. It feels like he is seriously going to fall out when I stand. But still....I'm open to any other suggestions.
