I recently found out that we are going to have to start paying for my daughters daycare. At first we didnt have too cause we didnt make enough money. Plus i was a single mom and qualified for the Tea program which just pays for her daycare. And now im freaking out cause its like were getting married in less then a month!! {september 22nd} and we have to start paying for the daycare! It's 85 dollers a week!! even if they dont go that week. Like if there out for christmas break they still get the 85 dollers even tho daycares not open! Its not that i dont think they deserve the money cause they do and proably a lot more! It's just i dont know how were going to swing it. With rent, electric, car payment,insurance,gas for the car, cable, cell phones, groceries, now this...!!! Its aggervating cause its like were not supposed to get married or something cause everything bad keeps happening to us!!! yikes!! HOW DO PEOPLE AFFORD DAYCARE??!?!?!?!??

My daughter is 3.5 years old. I also have a 10 year old and have worked with children my whole life. Bearing that in mind, please DO NOT answer this question with, "Thats normal, deal with it" etc. My 3.5 year old talks SO MUCH that it is becoming a problem. From the minute she wakes up to the time she is practically forced to go to bed, she talks, NON STOP. I have a feeling that she may be hyperactive. Several things seem to make me think this. She is on the go ALL DAY, does not ever slow down or stop moving. She is CONSTANTLY touching, grabbing, talking, tapping her foot, squirming. ALL THE TIME. She WILL NOT ever sit still. She is a VERY light sleeper and distracted VERY easily. She cannot play by herself. My mother inlaw is afraid I am "labeling" her. I seriously believe that itis better to catch this early and be proactive about it. Has anyone else had this issue before? What worked? I limit her sugar intake but I feel its more than diet. Any suggestions? Thanks!!!

Hello, what happens if I had intercourse about 24 hours before ovulation, right before my CM changed to watery egg white? Would that increase my chances of having a boy or a girl?

Thanks everyone

I am breastfeeding my 7 week old daughter exclusively and at my 6 week checkup my ob prescribed ortho tri-cyclen LO. It contains a low dose of estrogen and the pamphlet warns that it might affect the quality and quantity of breastmilk. I've had an oversupply of milk from the beginning but I'm still nervous about taking it. Should I ask for a progestrin only pill? My period also returned right away so I am also concerned if a progestrin only pill will be effective enough.

My fiance and I have the same first and middle initial, E and M. When we marry we will have the same initials. I want some ideas for when we have kids one day. This doesnt mean they will have the same initials for sure, its just for fun to see what people say! (I know its silly, but fun - no need for opinions, im just curious about what's out there)

could anyone give me a down-to-earth answer as to what ovulation is? is it during a woman's "period"? or is it before? or after? I mean this in the reference of actuall "bleeding", to further clarify things. Does ovulation occur after the "bleeding"? or before? And what is ovulation? is it the release of a fertile egg? or the development thereof? Please, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I'm a guy, and yes, I know how strange it may sound to you for me wanting to know such things. Thanks in advance.

My husband and I are trying to have a baby after a miscarriage last Oct 20 due to blighted ovum ( I had a d&c by the way). My period started Aug 1 and we followed the every other day sex since Day10 of cycle. My cycle is usually 28 or 29 days and I was wondering if the signs I am feeling right now are preg symptoms or sign that my period is about to start. My breast aches since my fertile days then it subsides and now its aching again and my nipples are sore. I have lower abdominal pain (usually on the right side) and backpains. I have mood swings and feels sick every afternoon. I know I just have to w8 till my period is due but can't help to anticipate that I am actually pregnant. Your insights will be very helpful to me. Thanks so much.

Don't women realize that if they are sexually active, they risk becoming pregnant?-- no form of birth control is 100% effective all the time. [Short of sterilization]. Also, you can get pregnant if your boyfriend "pulls out." So, if your period is late, go see the ob-gyn.

I've seen a lot a guys who have messed up childrens lives to get back at the mother. I think it would be easier on every party concerned just to keep your mouth shut.
