I liked when my daughter was about 5 months old and she was so happy and content just sitting somewhere with a few toys. And anything would make her smile.

I have one child and I know I do not want any more. My husband on the other hand says he may in the future. I feel horrible because should he come to me and say I think we should have more I will have to say NO. I have even thought about getting my tubes tied no matter what his thoughts are. I love my daughter but I can not handle any more nor want any more. I feel like this will doom our marraige. Some one is going to end up hurting the other and holding it against them. It almost makes me feel like I should say goodbye now. We have a great marraige he is my best friend but we just can not agree on this big life issue. I have been on the pill for almost six her sence my daughter was born and it takes my sex drive completly away. Once a month if he is lucky, so that could be our doom to. So either way I feel guilty. Is there a way to deal with the guilt? Do I just go and get tied? Or do I just assume this will someday rip us apart?

First Names:

i am 6 months pregnant ,from the fourth month i started having toothache.i was placed on antibiotics and pain reliever due to my pregnant state.i took the antibiotics for just a day and stopped because i know it can be dangerous to the foetus.the painreliever i was forced to take on occassions when the pain became unbearable.My dentist adviced me not to remove the teeth till after my pregnancy saying that it is very big and strong being molars the last teeth on the row.Finally he made a hole beside the decayed tooth and inside this was placed some medication for about 1 week which helped to relieve the pain.But this pain is back again.it makes me miserable and i wonder if i can continue like this till the end of my pregnancy.what do i do? Should i remove this tooth or continue bearing and enduring the pain.

I don't want to get too graphic, but let's just say I won't be eating any bagels any time soon. Or doughnuts.

Hi there, I am 4 months pregnant, and have a history of ovarian cysts. Simple ones that disolve on their own. Now that I am pregnant I have not had any...until this pain I am experiencing right now. which is directly in the center of my pelvic area, and down real low. it feels like a catching feeling when I move a certain way, or sneeze..just like a cyst..I have an apt with my OB today at 3:00 anyways for my check up...I will obviously mention it to him then..but just for some sanity right now.. anyone know what this is or go through it. For the record no bleeding or anything like that that would be abnormal.

Like people who are prone to being struck by lighting. Her most recent episode was yesterday. At school she hit three kids & spit at the teacher. And they imformed me that yesterday was a bad day for alot of kids. She is not perfect on other days. And she has alot of very good days. But on full moons it just seems like it more severe. And I know that it is not a coincidence. I have been studying her behavior for quite some time. She is developmentally delayed which causes me to pay more attention to how she acts to different situations. I have looked at different article that try to disprove this theory. One stated that people act differently during full moons because they know it is a full moon. My daughter blows that theory right out of the water because she is only 5 years old & I have never discussed this with her. Case point. Every time there is a full moon she has irrational behavior. What can I do about it? Is there any natural remedities that anyone knows about?

I am 6.5 weeks along and am starting to get queasy. I am curious: when in your pregnancy did you first get morning sickness and at what point did it stop? Thank you!

We have a wedge that is supposed to prevent him from rolling over onto his belly but he manages to willing himself onto is belly anyway. This is very scary for both my self and my husband. We are extremely worried when we go to bed. Our son sleeps in the same room with us and is no more than 3 feet from our bed. We find ourselves waking up many times in the middle of the night just to make sure he is not on his belly causing us to be very tired for work the next day. What can we do? Any suggestions are appreciated.

I am 37 weeks and for the past 2 days my hands have (a few times) turned red and started swelling, and itching & kind of tingling.

Also, my feet and ankles are really swollen, just since yesterday. I am almost always off my feet so I don't understand how they could be SO swollen. Should I call? What could it be??

Assume parent A works 40-50 hours a week.

Parent B is home with three kids, ages 4 months to four years, all day. This parent works 167 hours a week. (24-7)

A gets weekends off, B does not. A sleeps all night, B gets up twice to feed and change a baby.

B also does all the housework, takes off the trash, fixes all meals, including special meals for B's picky kids when they come to visit.

So the question is, why does A consider himself to be the hard-working parent and B to be a lazy person who does nothing?

I did not gain that much weight, I didn't even get a big belly. I was never that Hungery, I never got craveings. I thought I was getting to fat so somtimes I wouldn't even eat. One week before I had my baby I thought I had a hernia so I let it go. Then I couldn't take it anymore so I went to the emergency room and that's when I found out.

I just took a pregnancy test (and my period isn't due for a week, don't ask why I took the test), and just 5 minutes later I have a verrrry vague line, but it isn't really the pink that one would normally see on a preg test. Is it possible that an evaporation line could show up that quickly, or is it a very early positive?

I am just over 10 weeks and as well as feeling a bit travel sick all the time my stomach feels like it has been cleaned out with sandpaper and I have this foul metal taste in my mouth and throat. My midwife assures me this is all very normal but any suggestions on what I can do to reduce the symptoms??? It really takes the shine off being pregnant! Will it disappear in a few weeks?
