I currently work full time and im finding it very difficult coping with my child who is under a year old. I see very little of my daughter and wish to now work part time. What are my rights? Will I be sacked if I fail to work full time?

My son is seven months old. As many parents know, at this age they are really curious about everything and figuring out how to do many things. He can crawl, sit up, and pull himself up on to things. I'm really proud of him but here's the deal. No matter how close to him I am, he still falls and knocks his head. We have linoleum all around our house...with a few area rugs here and there. When he plays I put him in the living room with a comforter and an area rug underneath--so he doesn't hit his head too hard. Lately he's hit his head pretty much everyday, I don't know what to do! Am I supposed to not let him roam and develop? Am I supposed to hover over him every time he plays? He's a very active and big boy (he doesn't fit in the Pack n Play anymore) so I don't want to make it so he can't play around. Does anyone know of a way I could stop him from falling--or hitting his head? Thank you for your responses!

I'm 15.I have a boyfriend(he is my school-mate).When we are out of school(at home or at his home) he is a very good 'boyfriend' - we kiss and hug each-other...we feel good.But when we are at school(during the break) he is just like friend,he doesn't want to look like we are in love,because he is ashamed he has a girlfriend and thinks if the others see that,they will get at him.I don't want to hide our relationship,I think if someone loves me and I love him,we shouldn't hide our feelings.It's like we are in love out of school,but we are not in love at school.Please,help me,what should I do?

I know this sounds silly, but I'm 4 months pregnant...my DH and I have been married for a year, together for 5 yearsbut the problem is I am afraid to tell my mother and father...my mother has said to me and others on several occassions that DH and I are not ready for a baby our dog is enough...we (me especially) don't have the patience...of course I know this is not true! The other thing is that I am an only child...and I think for them once I got preggers, my being a baby to them was OVER! But does anyone have any advice on how to tell my overprotective and worrisome parents...I am so afraid and everyone in DH's family knows and are constantly pressuring me to tell, which I know I have to, but I am terrified!....thanks for your help!

I am almost 40 wks preg. (on 9/20) and While at my weekly visit yesterday they noticed I had protien in my urine & elevated BP (also headaches & vision disturbance) - so they did blood work & it came back that I have PREECLAMPSIA. Therefore, if I don't labor between today & tomorrow they have me scheduled for a C-SEC on thursday morning. Has anyone been diagnosed w/this late in pregnancy & what has been your experience & outcomes for both yourself & the baby. I guess I'm just a little scared/nervous cuz I wasn't expecting this ... thanks for your answers.

I am of the view that any changes made to improve the health of our children (and therefore our future nation) are positive and should be embarked upon at any cost.
I reacted with total shock when I read a news article today about 2 mothers at a british school who are taking orders over the school fence for burgers and fish and chips, and then delivering them to kids in school. Apparently this is a protest at the new healthier menu.
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/18092006/344/bu...
I have given my 4 children packed lunches for years to try and encourage healthier eating, prior to the school dinner improvements.
I hadn't ever considered that some parents would hold another view.
I think they're bonkers, and infringing upon the rights of other parents to feed their children healthily. Their only right is to choose the diet of their own children.
What do you think?
I'd like to find out and then email the results to the school suffering the protest.

My son is almost 4 months old and I'd like to get an entertainment item that he can sit in and that travels well. We have a swing which is fairly portable. But I've been thinking about getting the Fisher Price Take Along Hop n Pop, or an exersaucer. Which products do you all suggest?

My son is 8 and still using pull-ups. He is also blind and has cerebal palsy. When I mentioned going online and the vast amount of info, his teacher also expressed intrest. She has many children with autism and toilet time is one of the most difficult areas to master. Thanks for any and all answers.

My last period started Aug 7th. My cycle is usually 33 days. Usually a couple of days before my period starts, I'd have cramps or boob tenderness. But this month...nothing. I was supposed to get my period on/around Sept 9th. Lately, I've been getting headaches and a little nausea but not enough to actually make me vomit. I've been feeling a little tired but then again it might be because I'm working 2 jobs. I took a test this morning...negative. Anybody have or had this same symptoms???
