Pregnancy & Parenting - 2 October 2006

I am really in a rut right now and I need help. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex. My period was suppose to start a week after we had sex. I'm not sure if it will or not so my question is: is there a pill that I can take or a home remedie or something that I can do that can stop the growth of the fetus. Do i need to drink alcohol or take an over-the-counter drug. What do I need to do. There's no way I can get preg. What can I do before I even find out if I am pregnant so that it will not continue to grow? Please help me to miscarriage this embryo before it gets any further. What should I do.

She has been potty-trained well over a year and just in the past two weeks started wetting her pants quite often and just last night urinated in a box. Then today after she wet her pants again, I found her crouched down in a corner in her room and I think she was trying to poop in the corner. I don't know why she is doing this?!!

My 11 month old daughter was born with redish veins on her cheeks and eyelids. My doctor hasn't said anything about them, so I am not worried. But I was wondering if anyone else had children with these veins, and if they went away as they got older. I myself have a small purple vein around my cheek as well. Oh and what causes these veins? Are they broken capilaries?

I was wondering if there are any witchs/wiccan/pagan parents out there. Are you very open with your children about everything? I am 36 weeks pregnant and very worried about the future. I have a house beside my parents who are needless to say super christians. They dont know of my beliefs and I dont want them to. We have a great relationship right now and if they were to find out then it would destroy everything. Its not worth it. How would I go about teaching my son and being active in this position. We live in an extreamly small community and my parents know pretty much everyone, so it makes it even harder. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

My 15 month old son is very hyperactive and i find it hard to find any games to play with him because he loses interest so quickly but i have also found that i don't do enough with him and we don't have enough "us" time. Any ideas for games we can play in the house together?

My wife and I have enjoyed breath control for many years. Typically we use a Shopper's Corner bag for our play, which I secure over her head with a belt. She is not allowed to remove the bag until she has manually pleasured me, or passes out, as it sometimes happens.

Now that she is 7 months pregnant, I'm wondering if this is safe for the baby. Do we need to wait until the pregnancy is over?

Okay, I am finally dilated 1 to 2 cm. My OB said that if I do not go into labor by my next appt then I will be getting an u/s. Okay, that makes me nervous, but I know everything is fine. Baby's HR was 140 and he/she wasn't active so hmmm. I have gained a lb and 1/2. Okay, I feel really really stupid for asking this, but did any of you ever leak fluid after getting a vaginal done? I have noticed that the past two times that I have had that done, my underwear ends up kinda well, wet. Could it be from the KY stuff they use or what?? I really hope so. Gosh, I am so ignorant to a lot of this stuff. I also found that some of my mucous plug came out and it was tinged light pink so that was more than likely from the vaginal I assume. I haven't been timing my contractions at all because well, to be honest, I didn't know that the "period" like cramps I was feeling were considered to be contractions.

I notice a lot of questions on Yahoo Answers, from pre-teens, and early teens, asking about having sex at any age from 11-16 and so on, and asking if this is okay. Some of these questions are probably coming from people just trying to get a rise out of others; however, I do believe that some of these questions are legitimate questions from young children that really want to know about it. Although some of the times, the answers are from more mature people who discourage them from doing anything, some of the answers these children get are from people who are a lot of the times their peers or immature people, who encourage them to go for it. If I were a parent, I definitely would not want my child getting these answers. Do you feel that this is because they are not getting enough discussion from their parents about the issue of sex, and they don't feel comfortable asking them? What's the solution here? Stricter computer monitoring, or parents being more open about sex with them?

A WIC nurse told me it was recommended to teach babies to drink from a regular cup, instead of using a "sipy" cup, because sipy cups are like an extension of the bottle .... I find this hard to do.... Tell me: is it possible to teach a baby to drink from a regular cup, or should I use a sipy cup? Again, I know this sounds ignorant, but I'm a new mom and I keep hearing all these new opinions....

im 9 weeks and 3 days along in my pregnancy, and my morning sickness seems to be getting worse. I thought that in your 3rd month all of the awful side affects go away, no? the dizzy spells arent nearly as bad but my level of tiredness and sickness has reached a level beyond comfort. When will I be able to wake up and be full of energy and eat with out running to the bathroom and having my face down in the toilet?

When my girls were newborns I always wanted to keep them very close at hand. It was always so difficult having to move her from the swing to the baby carrier to the crib. It bothered them more than anything else. My husband and I would like to have another child I was wondering about getting a moses basket. However no one that I know has ever used one. I wanted to know from anyone who has, and what they liked and well didn't like about them. Give me your opinion, should I get one or not?

Hi I am currently 2 days late for my periods and have used two home tests that both came up as positive (they were both different brands and were both in date.) So I went to my Dr who did Urine and blood tests, today he said that they were negative, however I still have not got my periods and have been told it is very rare to get false positives on home kits and becasue I used two serperate brands I though the chance wouldd be even lower. Am I just hoping the doc is wrong?

Additional Details

18 hours ago
No - I did not show the Dr the results but he did believe me. He just said to try again in a few days but I have been trying so long I am impatient.

Additional Details

I am now 3 days late and took another home test 24hrs after the test my Dr did that said negative - Home test was positive again and this was a third brand. So not a faulty batch. So confused - I want it to be positive soo much.

It's not like when we were kids. Nowdays, you either live in a city or burb and you are paranoid about the happenings in the news and keep Jr. on virtual lockdown or scheduled to death...or, you attempt to give some freedom to the kid, and your neighbors call the cops on you for letting the kid play unsupervised in the fence because it's "unsafe". What to do?

Now they claim childhood obesity is epidemic. People moan and groan about all these big kids when most parents only feel safe when Jr. is slapped within view in front of the tube watching Batman or playing video games. They won't allow the kid to play outdoors and be a kid, or they have busybody neighbors that think a 6 year old is unsafe in a 8ft high steel fence with two dobermans and a rottweiler for playmates.

What kind of childhood are kids having these days? I would have suffocated, withered and died at the hands of a parent this day and age when I was a kid. I was raised in the country. Things were different.

I have never gone through the court systems with a minor. Does anyone know what will happen? She has been acting up a lot lately. She hasn't been going to school and I think she has been doing drugs. I set rules but she never follows them. I'm not sure if they are going to release her since that puts her back in the same environment with her sister and puts her in danger. Does the judge look at these things? The jail isn't giving me much answers. I can't afford a lawyer so she is going to have a court appointed. What should I do? Any help or advice is great appreciated.

Which will last longer and be more durable.
