as if she has a bit of milk stuck in her throat... She is only receiving breastmilk. What could this be? It doesn't seem to bother her. I just hear it slightly but I'm wondering if it's normal?

Okay, I am on the birth control pill Portia, which is the generic of Nordette. I'm taking this because that's all the pharmacy in my school offered, and I am fine with that. My question is, I thought birth control pills were supposed to DECREASE cramping? This evening, i've had some of the most terrible cramping ever, and it feels awful. Even when I wasn't on the pill, my cramps were never bad...they were merely a minor annoyance. But these are the worst. If some people use the pill to decrease menstrual cramps, then why do these hurt so bad? I never experienced any type of cramping with Nordette, and my periods were wonderfully light, and I assumed that since Portia is the generic equivalent, then it would be the same way. Does the pill increase abdominal cramping for some of you? Is that a side effect?

I am a second time mom and formula fed my daughter. I want to breastfeed this time but am clueless on what I should buy now so I am prepared when my child comes. Also, what is the best pump to buy without breaking my checkbook?

Do you think I look decent with glasses?
I don't want to go to school looking like a freak with glasses on. And yeah, I photoshopped the image a little bit.

I have a friend who just had her baby 3 weeks ago and she told me today that her mom told her to give her 3 week old Karo syrup and water at night to "relax her and get her to sleep through the night". I have a 6 month old and told her to NEVER do that, especially to a baby so young! The only time I've ever been told to use Karo is if the child is consitpated and even then I've been told to try juice diluted with water first. Her child was also 4 weeks premature. She insists it's ok because her mom said it was and that her mom did it with all her kids. Am I right to be concerned and how can I explain to her kindly that it is not good for her infant?

My mom and I have had some disagreements about how much I should be allowed to see my boyfriend. She made this rule that we could see each other one night during the week from about 3-9 friday for the same amount of time and saturday but only after 5. Then she says we spend more time together than a married couple? I feel like we barely see each other at all, she regulates how long we talk on the phone and how many e-mails we send, I feel like she's obsessed with my relationship. I'm just wondering, what's a reasonable amount of time for 2 high school seniors to see each other, week and weekend. We've been dating for 15 months, by the way.
