I constantly see black teenage girls 15-16 years old, who scream at their poor babies things like :"wah the f%uck is wrong with you?" ,"Shut up", "Noone wants to hear you". And thse horrible creatures continue popping a baby after baby when they can't treat even one like a human being. I am totatly outraged. I know there are bad mothers of all races, but blacks have the most kids these days-constantly screaming and beting their kids. No wonder many of them end up in prison...

I just had a baby almost 3 weeks ago. My babys father, who lives in the same household does not understand why i am so tired and why i cant find time to clean up the house. He doesnt sleep in the room with the baby and i so he doesnt understand that i have to wake up and feed the baby and the baby only wakes up twice a night, so what it is that im doing that makes me so tired? I know what it is, but how do i explain that to him?

i fooled around with a guy who i absoultley hate.. i let him finger me and thats about it (NO SEXUAL CONTACT AT ALL) like we were fully clothed. i dont know if he had sperm on his hands. i feel like i would have signifigantly noticed but i didnt notice anything at all. would i have defenitley seen/felt the c.um from him
this all took place aug 5th

2 weeks or so after that i got my normal heavy period for 6 days (aug 16th)

basically stopped worrying because i felt NO symptoms at all.. like no sore boobs, morning sickness, headaches, dizziness.. nothing at all and to this day (september 18th, still no signs what so ever)

my period was due the 16th of sept but still hasnt come yet. i usually get my periods late (ranges from 2-5) but i am FREAKING out that i could be pregnant. but i dont get it! i had my heavy period enough to fill up like 7 pads last month. i dont know what to do im freaking out and crying! im waiting till about friday if i dont get it to actually do something.

Alriight heres the deal.. I have a 2 year old daughter that seems to be going through the "terrible" stage.. She cries and whines constantly and its hard to get her to sleep.. and when she does sleep she often wakes up, thus making me have to go through the whole process again.
Her mother was killed in a car wreck a few months ago, and Im just wondering, am I doing anything wrong, or is it just the terrible stage? Also any ideas on how to calm her?

I wasn't actually "breast" feeding, but I was pumping my milk for my daughter because she had to have open-heart surgery and I could not immediately breast feed and I had to strictly monitor her intake with a feeding tube, but I just stopped pumping and my breasts feel like they're going to fall off. How long will it last?

I have a 2 mo. old son I was breastfeeding him for a while, now I have stopped. There has been alot of stress going on due to current living conditions and finacial reasons. Due to that my milk supply decreased and I was very uncomfortable feeding my baby feeling stressed. I still pump but there is only less than 1 oz. comming out from both breasts. My concern is that my baby will have some kind of detachment from me or have some kind of illness that he will never recover from by not getting the right nutrients and vitamins from my milk supply. What are the disadvantages from not breastfeeding for that long and what are the things that I can do to increase my milk supply again??? Im worried.........please help!!!

I saw a question on here from last week and it ask what is the approperate age to leave children unattended in the bath tub, there were so many answers for the age 2 and 3....Does anyone else feel this is way too young to have their children alone in the tub...personally I think these people are totally irresponsible and should pick up a parenting book or something!! These parents need to get a clue and protect them...Accidents happen I wouldn't leave my little child unattended at that age...actually for several years after that, I rather be safe then sorry

HI there. I’ve been on and off antibiotics which interfere with my contraceptive pill and whilst me and my husband were very careful there may have been once or twice (with in the seven day wait after you finish your course) that might have been a little too soon. Anyway, having said that. My period has come a little early and its very very heavy, I feel nauseated, have no energy at all and have cramps which are not normal to my periods. I also have some dark clotting. Before this I had sensitive sore breasts and dizzy spells (like I had when I was pregnant with my daughter) but they have gone now. Is it possible that this is a very early miscarriage? Would a pregnancy test be able to show this or is it too soon. I have an appointment with my doctor for tomorrow but am curious to know if anyone else has experienced this.

full of terrorists, pedophiles, rapists and homos?
Isn't having a baby totally irrational in today's world?
Yes, you will satisfy your ego by creating a new life, but what about your innocent child?

My ex boyfriend and I dated for a year and 1/2 and got pretty serious we talked about having a baby and getting married. Well I started to see warning signs from throughout our relationship but they got worse. He was really jealous and he would spy on me sometimes. I felt really scared and felt like I really didn't know this person like I thought so I broke up with him a month ago. I just found out I'm pregnant. I don't know how far but it's got to be 5-6 weeks or so. Part of me wants to have the baby. I am 29 and financially stable & want a baby but I know how crazy this guy can be and I'm worried he would try and take the baby or just make my life hell. I know he'll find out because he's a stalker.My concern is just what kind of future will this baby have in this situation and my parent are old fashioned and they would disown me.
