I get my period every 20 days and it lasts up to 5 days. I was wondering if you can get pregnant two days before your menstrual cycle?

I have been TTC for 2 months, charting for 1 month. I think I ovulated a few days ago, and my falopian tubes are a little achy, and I noticed that last month too.

Anyone else feel the same thing?

My daughter will be 6 in Sept. I was considering throwing her a party. She has always wanted a girls only party. Is this possible and how? If i send invitations to school don't I have to invite the whole class(including boyz) same prob with daycare. Is there a proper way to do this without being rude, or should I wait till she's older and just invite all genders?

My friend just found out a few weeks ago that she was expecting her first child. She had a miscarriare only a month before getting pregnant again. Now she is to the point where she hasn't eaten in 2 days due to sickness. She is having horrid pains in her and coughing up blood. She doesn't smoke and she is only 18. Could this have anything to do with the pregnancy? Is it a side affect of another miscarriage or could this be something far more sinister? Everything was going fine up until 2 days ago. I'm trying to convince her to go to the E.R. but she is so worried and her fiance is just complaining about it saying its just another excuse for attention. He's the one that wanted a child but has been hoping for another miscarriage and even threatened to take care of it himself. Could he have done something or given her something to make this happen? I'm just so worried and want things to go well for her. Any advice on making her go to the emergency room?

To sing to your children that is, or if you can remember, as a child.

My son has to hear : "Walkin Cane" ( redone by the Knitters, but the original I'm not so sure), "You are my sunshine" ( which has many variants, such as "you are my baby ducky") and "silver Wings" ( as redone by the Knitters again, Merle Haggard orginally) everynight before he goes to bed.

Sometimes "Space Oddity" by Bowie will do the trick too, as well "Walking after Midnight" by Patsy Cline.

And yes, my little one seems to like a lot of classic country music...but he also loves the Violent Femmes and the B52's. Go figure!

not to get pregnant only to find out when you want to get preg. it isnt all that easy? Is it cause your trying not to? Is that the secret? It just seems harder than you would think to get pregnant. Has anyone ever gotten preg on the first try?

Ok my last peroid was 07/12/06, I'm now 2wks late. I seen my doctor last week and the blood work came back negative, but still no peroid. When taken a shower this morning and I turned to rise off the front of my I almost dropped to the floor because it felt like little pins going through my chest it hurt so bad. I called my doctor and he said it was my peroid coming, which I don't believe. I get spotting every now and then but nothing comes. I do have all the symtoms of being pregnant but I just can not figure out whats going on. My doctor will not do an ultrasound cause he said it will not show him anything.

Someone please help me understand what might be going on.

Thank you.

Hi, i'm asking this question on behalf of a friend, unfortunately i dont have children myself.

My friend is a single parent, has 3 children, a son of 16, a daughter of 14, and a daughter of 8, her teenage daughter is being very loud and abusive to her, and also verbally attacking her with very nasty words, she has also 'lashed out' at her mother, on several occasions, yesterday, she even took my friends mobile fone, deleted sum numbers, then took out the 'sim card', then took the 'sky-box' card, so the sky-tv cudn't be used, all because my friend 'grounded her', she then said to her mother, "if u dont let me outta the house by 2pm, i'm gonna rip up the cards !" this eventually ended up in a 'bad fight' between mother and daughter, and now my friend is at the end of her 'tether with this teenage girl ! To be fair to the girl, she has no issues with me, and is 'always' quite respectful to me ! Can anybody help ? ? ? ?

PLEASE !

In other words, sometimes I feel like my stomach is smaller, like it fluctuates, what's that all about?...I know sometimes its because I've just eaten, but it can be scary. ...like the baby dissapeared.Has anyone else experienced this.
Ladies , has your stomach looked really huge and then another time it seems smaller?

My 27 month old boy decided to drink a capri sun juice drink and spit it out on my kitchen floor. I have one of those simple swiffer wet mops, where all you do is put the wet cloth on it and sweep. Well, I made him wipe the mess up. But my main question is, will he take it as punishment or think, "Hey this is fun, let's do it again!"? Or, was that just mean of me to make him do it, because I don't think so. I told him that if he wants to make big boy messes, that he can clean them up like a big boy. I already teach him to help pick up his toys.
