Thank GOd I have family who offered to let me stay with them. I am feeling a little rejected and hurt but life goes on. How much time should I spend at their house visiting the new baby.

Hey everyone,
I'm a little new to this whole chat thing. I got married in June '06 and in August me and my husband decided that we wanted a baby right away...we love children! I went on the pill in April of '06 and went off the pill in August...so that would be almost 4 months on the pill?
Anyways...I finished the packet on the 6th of August and I finished my period the next day. It is now September 18th and I haven't gotten my period yet, I'm not worried, I don't think I am pregnant...I tried a HPT...but it was negative. I did ovulate 2 weeks after my period. So...I guess this is just all new to me....So if anyone has been here....answers would be nice. Also, I have been having really bad sharp cramp pains in my lower stomache for about 5 days...maybe my period will arrive soon... Advice would be very appreciated at this time.

I have a c section scheduled for 10/5 and you can bet that I am NOT going to shave my legs again until the baby is at least a month old. I don't care if my legs get hairier than my husband's, I'm not going to do it. I don't even have to contort myself as much during sex as I do to get smooth legs right now.
Just had to vent a bit...it was worth the point loss. Thanks.

We have a 10 month baby-girl. I'm looking for proffesional answers, is it ok for her to see me and my husband naked? Is it ok from now and on to go to shower with her? I heard some people do that, their kids see them naked all the time, (which didn't seem nice to me). And one night we were having sex, and i couldnt hold my tounge while having an orgasm and she heard us and woke up crying and looking at us, but we stoped at once, I am so worried that if she saw us, will it affect on her anything, is she gonna remember it as a bad memory or trauma. PLEASE HELP.

They irritate the living daylights out of me. I just came in from talking to a neighbor I try to avoid because her hooligan 3 year old son has the tendency to break into my house and take things. Anyway, despite her childs behavior, she found it necessary to give me a lecture about how my 6 year old son should not be allowed on the trampoline because they are dangerous for kids under 8, and how she'd never allow her kids to have a trampoline...and blah blah blah....yes sir, yes sir, 3 bags full.

It makes me think about the cyber personalities I encounter here who beleive all of us who have ever used formula for our babies should be crucified and stoned, along with the more traditional methods of parenting that are always taking a sucker punch up here (ie: spankings, firm talks, loss of priveledges, manual labor, increased chores).

She also beleives I am abusing my son by making him pull weeds for an hour after homework for not cleaning his room and smart mouthing me. Whatever.

My 3 year old daughter wines all the time about nothing. She has an older sister that doesn't live with us, so she is basically an only child. Can anyone give me some pointers?

My ex-husband decided that from the 2nd week of sept he did't want anything to do with our two boys who are 4 and 3. I do receive CSA (which took along time) from him but he doesnt want any involvement. The reason behind it is that, my eldest has now started primary school and I do live quite a fair way from it, which yes cost me money but its worth it as it is a good school. His excuse is that it would cost him to much money to take them there and back. But I even offered to take them to school so he will only has to pick them up.
Ive always let him before now to have them from monday afternoon to early wed afternoon (his choice because he was paying CSA) but he said that he wants them when he wants them, which is unfair to especially to them and also I don't want him to be a part time dad. To be truthful I don't think he is that bothered. Basically I like some advice I am at my wits end and because of this my eldest is lashing out at me. Which is being sorted.

My 15 month old daughter (weaned at 12 months) has suddenly become really picky with her food. She won't eat anything really except for drinking her (formula) milk, and sometimes a bit of water. A girlfriend suggested I try making the formula with full-cream milk instead of water, to increase the fat in her diet (ie. 200ml milk, 4 scoops powder; and we have already introduced cows milk into her diet). I am skeptical about this, it seems excessive and unnecessary. My daughter is not about to fade away, and I am sure this is just a phase, but I would still like to get some other opinions on this double-whammy milk concoction. Would this be worth thinking about if she continues to be picky like this? Thankyou in advance for all you thoughful help.

Hey does anyone know why you have your period while pregnant? I am about 5 weeks pregnant, took 4 urine preg test (positive) one at the doctors office, of course i missed my period then about 2 weeks later i got my period. Lasted 3 days, and im kinda worried, so i got an ultra sound and a blood test for the HCG i got the results back for the blood test and that came back positive as well, but it was low. I just want to not be nervous anymore because i want my baby to be fine, and want to know how many of you went through this.
