Pregnancy & Parenting - 23 August 2006

I took Plan B about a week ago...I don't keep very good track of my period cycle, though i think I should be starting it about now...I could be wrong though.
Usually before my period, I have some spotting that I didn't have when I was taking birth control. Is it possible that the Plan B would have the same effect on my hormones, or whatever it is that controls that, as the birth control would, or is it possible for it to make my period a bit different than normal?

and give the harshest/cruelest/most biased answers are usually the ones who never have verified emails? It almost seems like they can dish it out, but they can't take it. Anyone else agree?

Our little boy is 6weeks old. He's breastfed only and is putting on nearly a pound each week!

He feeds CONSTANTLY though! My poor wife feeds every two or three hours without fail - she hasn't slept properly in ages, I've fed him breastmilk in a bottle to give her a rest but she's just exhausted.

We suspected that many of his feeds were comfort feeds as e doesn't always take milk and cries unless he's on his mum!

Tonight.... we gave him a dummy - we had sworn to ourselves we wouldn't... but instantly he started sucking away and then fell asleep!!! Little Jack never sleeps!!

He seems to have a real need to suckle - feel guilty though!!!!!!

This sounds really strange im sure but it seems to me like I am over excited for my baby to get here. Im 36 weeks pregnant and I cant wait to see my baby girls face. Its almost like Im obsessed with her arrival. I sit in her room and look at all her stuff for hours. i talk to her everyday and shes all i think about and worry about. I know that there is the nesting phase of pregnancy but Im way past that and I know that its normal to be an excited mother but overly? I just dont want her to be distressed because Im obsessed with her. I cant imagine her being here. i already love her so much and it doesnt seem possible to love her anymore when shes here but I hope I calm down a little. Does every woman go this crazy?

I caught some teens swimming in my neighbors pool last night. They are out of town and I am keeping an eye on the house. They are kids from down the street, 2 guys and 2 girls. I don't know their parents but I do know which house one of the girls lives in. My question is this: I was a teen once and should I just let this go? Or should I let the parents know what their kids were up to. I really don't want to be a stick in the mud. Also, should I tell my neighbor about this?

Can anyone recommend a sippy cup that does not leak? I have tried several brands including Avent with no success.

My cousin had the surgery a couple of years ago, and has kept all the weight off, but she still can't eat very much at a time, and she just found out she's pregnant. How will this affect the baby?

Has anyone had any weird menstrual cycles while breastfeeding? With my first child my cycle did not resume until I quit breastfeeding. However now with baby #2 I had a short period 1-2 days last month and I am going on 8 days this month. Should I contact my OBGYN or is this one of those issues not to worry about.

Is it ok to take a First Resonse test 1 day before your missed period in the evening? Or should I wait until tomorrow in the very early morning? Will my pee be different in the evening and will it be less effective?

My outgoing toddler is now very shy
It started around 20 months old after the first night he stayed with the grandparents
He was very outgoing then sometime after this event he has become shy and very cautious of people,particularly strangers
he is now 2 years of age
Is this seperation anxiety??

Thanks for any advice

I was reading about the benefits of reading to your baby as soon as he or she is born.

Experts say babies should be read to as newborns because it helps with their educational development.

Did or do any of you read to your baby?

What do you think about reading to a newborn?

I haven't been able to leave my 1 yr old with a babysitter for even an hour (though my parents watch him all the time)... I just can't imagine leaving him with a stranger, but maybe I do need to do this -- at least the person who watches babies while moms take fitness classes at my club??

How do mothers handle having people out of the family / strangers to the kids with them for an extended period of time? Is it not as much of a risk as you hear (and I believe it to be...)?

Any suggestions for the first time we do decide to have a babysitter? (I'm thinking do this only when the baby is old enough to talk and tell us if something was wring)... thanks!
