Pregnancy & Parenting - 8 September 2006

my nipples are hurting. I have never had sore nipples or breasts at the time of menstration. Just to let you know i do not have an normal menstration cycle and i ovulate only rarely(took 10 years for my son) So here is the situation. I have had sex 11 and 8 days ago. Yesterday and today which would be day 10 and days 7 i have spotted a brownish discharge and today my nipples really hurt. Is this a sign of ovulation? period? or possible implantation and pregnancy? thanks all in advance for your help. Have A GREAT night

I have known my friend for many years. I like him and I keep getting mixed signals from him. At first it was "only friends" behavior, but now I am getting "I like being near you, and want to be near you" behavior. I don't know if he is messing with my head or if I am just imagining things. He is the only gut I see me having sex with and I don't know if I should. I want to yeah, but he may not feel the same way. I just wish I knew if he wanted to 'do it' with me. I think he does, he is always asking me over, we haved talked about sex with eachother all the time, and he likes my company. So I would figure he does, but he hasn't even mentioned about doing it. But I think we should, but I can't be sure. So that is why I need some help. Should I have sex with him or should I not?

Ok, so my Girlfriend and I had intercourse, she took the pill the day after. So, it should be ok. Now, we messed up and had intercourse again, the day after she took the pill. Now, will we still need to take another pill, or is the 1st pill still in effect?

is that normal or should i be worried. My mom tells me not to worry to much because with me (her first child) she gained 50 pounds. I have not got to much bigger anywhere else besides my stomach.

A lot has been said about pacifiers but did you know that they have been proven to reduce the risk of SIDS by over 70%? That is a HUGE difference. My kids all used them and they have no ill effects now. No crooked teeth or anything like that. Also, sucking on something soothes your baby too. It helps them to learn to self-soothe, which they NEED to learn. I just wonder why anyone would not want their child to have something that could save his or her life?

My baby is 2 1/2 months old and has always breastfed well. Now she feeds well for a few minutes and then gets very fussy and squirms a lot at the breast. I can manually express milk from the nipple, so I know there is a milk supply, but she acts as if she is not getting any milk, or doesn't want any more - but is still acting hungry afterwards. What do I do?

Just strolling not fast walking, with the dog, it's just you hear. You must gain weight and you must not excercise so is it ok, I would feel better if I could and I hate swimming and other excercise.

there is this boy who every once in a while hangs out with my friend who i hang with. he puts his backpack next to my friend's which is right next to me cuz i dont eat lunch. so when he finishes his lunch he goes and buys a coke from the vending machine (the machines are in the same room where i sit and wait for my friend to finish lunch)and he puts it in his backpack. i know i dont like him but every time he's around i get nervous and watch what i say and do. i want to say that its just because im not used to him and i dont feel comfortable around people i dont know but im not too sure that that is the case. why do i feel this way and what do i do?

There are so many girls/women in here everyday that are asking questions about being pregnant who don't seem to want babies or understand anything about pregnancy. No one is born knowing about babies, of course, but these girls seem SO irresponsible and naive. It's like they have no idea how they got pregnant or they act like the baby would inconvenience them somehow or they are in a panic over it. They don't seem to understand that pregnancy IS preventable. Why are they panicking now? Now it's too late. Does this scare anyone else?

I am about 38 1/2 weeks and have gestational diabetes and my baby's estimated weight from the ultra sound is 7 pounds and 10 ounce. My OB doctor really wants to induce me because of having diabetes. My due date is September 18. She wants me to get induce on September 11, but I told her maybe September 13, but she keeps trying to persuade me, so I told her September 12. But I'm not too sure if I want to get induce because I'm scared that I might end up getting a c-section, and this is my first baby. What should I do? Should I go ahead and get induce for my baby's health and the risks associate with diabetes, or should I wait until the baby is ready?

My BIL's wife is 32/33 weeks pregnant. She has had a lot of trouble throughout her pregnancy so far. She hasn't been able to take any type of vitamin because they seem to want to come back up. She has these spells where she would get really hot, sick, throw up, and then pass out. Her OB hasn't been able to tell her what the cause is and I seriously think she needs to be put on bed rest because she also has these spells while she is DRIVING! She has been fainting a lot out of nowhere. Her doctor told her it was lack of protein, but I don't know. I do not know what her diet consist of so I am not sure what the cause could be. I do know that she started out a bit careless about what she ate, drank, and so forth. Her hubby is quite picky about food and I know they ate a lot of fast food during her 1st and 2nd trimester. She actually got put in the hospital twice over her spells. Since her first time being put in the hospital, she claims to be doing everything she is supposed to be doing. Has any of this ever happened to you all?? If so, what was the cause?

Would it be possible for her to switch OBs this late in pregnancy because her's seems to be a bit careless on the whole thing. They do not check her urine everytime she goes for her appts =/. It really ticks me off because I know my OB would be so much better for her. He isn't the best there is, but the best in my area at least. TIA.
