If you saw a mother of two that needed help financially would you give her $1 to help her get back up on her feet and keep a roof over her kids head?

I've been trying to conceive for two months now. My period this month was expected on the 15th. I started feeling slight cramping on the 10th. On the 14th I started bleeding lightly and it lasted until the 16th. So, I only bled two full days but only lightly. And, now today I'm experiencing slight cramping and I feel it all in my hips.

This is weird because every period I had up until now (with exception to being on birth control) has started real heavy. I usually have to wear a pad and tampon to control the bleeding. And, my cramps are usually severe but not this time. I'm trying to get in to see my doctor but she is booked until the 30th of October so I need some advice.

So, what do you think may be going on with my body?

i haven't had a period this month just spotting and i have little butterfly feeling in the lower abdomanal area and it sometimes feels a little weird like a slight tightening every now and then not hurtful though and no cramping it feels different than normal im so tired latley and my boyfriend said with in the last week he has noticed a huge mood swing. if i was pregnant i would only be 3 weeks is it to early to tell on a pregnancy test by the dr. and is to early to have these different symptoms. the reason i ask is my sister and i had the same period day August 8,2006 and ended the same time and she is pregnant now and we both have some of the same symptoms but drs. told her she was pregnant but mine was a negative could i very well still be and it might be to early to tell cause isn't everyone different at when finding out or not please help me with any info its driving me crazy.

My son was born 8 weeks ago and weighed 6.1lb. He now weighs 14lb! He is breast fed with a bottle of formula at night and a little in the evening if he is still hungry after draining me!
Has anyone else had a child gain weight like this? I don't want to create a monster!! Incidentally he has only been having a bottle(s) for around 10 days, and his weight gain was rapid on just breast milk.

Don't really want pampering things as they don't normally get used. She'll have a million baby things already!

I am pregnant but still have my period. But my period this month is a bit strange, especially today. Don't read if you can't handle it in detail.... :) It's a brighter red than usual. And also has small clumps the size half a pinky nail. The clumps worry me. I was just curious if anyone had there period during pregnancy before and if this isn't something I shouuld worry about. I'm going to the hospital in a few days, but I just wanted to see if anyone had this before also?

Hi I am a 22 married woman. I had been taking birthcontrol for one month, this month would have made 2. But I quit taking it at the begining of this month because I kept missing pills. well I always have my period the begining or the end of each month. I get bad cramps and bleed clots so on so. But this month I had it at the first, and just a few days ago, like 5 I started having these brown clots come out of me then it changed to brown blood and now I have bleed for 2 and 1/2 days but just blood, not any clots like usual and with no cramps I usually get no headache or what not. And my breast NEVER get sore or tender when I have a period, But they have this time. They have been very Sore and swollen for 4 days now..I think it is really odd also where I just had a period 2 weeks ago? Could this be a sing of being pregnant? I want to be? Just don't really know. And yes I am taking a test Tomorrow just wanted some opinons... Thank you So much!

She's 13...her responsibility is mainly the dog (to take her out to pee & to walk her), she also is expected to keep her room neat (I clean it). She helps out in other ways...but I'm not overly strict about it...if I ask her to do something to help she does & a lot of times I don't have to ask...she does it anyway.

I'm mainly asking because she makes her own lunch for school, I pick up what she wants & she prepares it. My mother thinks I should prepare her lunch...I've told her that I'd rather my daughter know how to make a sandwich & be more self-sufficient.

Our system seems to work for us, what works for you?

My sons Dad is constantly telling him that he will come to get or see him on a certain day and he always calls and says that something came up.
What do I tell my son when his father wants nothing to do with him?
I always feel like the bad guy when he does this.

I am a grand aunt and have temp guardianship by the (parent) not the court of her 15mo old. Due to the state nor federal gov being involved I do not qualify for help with CCC. Unless it is an open case with DCF or I get realtive caregiver income. I want the 15 mo to play at a daycare with others. However, my budget has no room for $155.00 tuition a week. I would even be glad to be there when he plays. The father is ordered to pay chid support but dosen't. The mother just started a career in law enforcement and has not the extra income nor the availability for daycare or medical. Medical I am able to get for him through Medipass. Somewhere he should be able to play with other 15mo olds.

I just shake my head at times, she's growing up so fast & it seems like I'm in denial.
We openly talk & I explain to her that when she's old & grey she'll still be my baby.

At what point did you stop seeing them as kids (if you ever did)?
