for the longest time my morning sickness wouldn't let up. It was so bad that I was just dry heaving the whole day. Now for the last two days I have no morning sickness and my BB's don't hurt at all. I'm not as tired as I was either. Is this normal or should I be worried? I'm 9 1/2 weeks pregnant.

I was discussing this issue with a friend, how much time do you and your spouse or partner get without having your kids around. The alone time she was referring to was time doing things like going out to dinner or drinks or a movie. Neither one of us has a set amount of time with our spouses away from our kids, and we don't feel it hurts our marriages. How much "alone time" do you get and do you think it is vital to a healthy marriage? Thanks!

The thing is there was some drinking involved, so it was on tues.. like around 8pm and i dont know if i came but even though i never felt like coming, im not sure cause we were kind of drunk. But then we talked about the emergency pill and were getting bad luck getting it because the 1's who sell it arent there yet, and today it will be my 3 day. I know it says before 72 hrs. but right now im eager to get it and i know it works like this. she takes 1 and then 12 later she has to take the second 1, but the thing is like to be my third day and last day for the pill, you think is still gonna work if she takes it like around 5 or 6 today, (right now is 11:14am) but then even if she does at that time, the second pill will be a little after the 72 hrs. you think their is still a chance of preventing the baby? bcos man after drinking we barely remembered wat we did and i think i did lets say, came. And shes barely 18 and im 18 and is that the age for considering abortion?

I pretty much know the answers I'm going to get but here goes....

Sahm's... Does that mean it's your job to raise the children and the other half basically brings home the money and doesn't have the child burden?

Working Moms.. Is it still your responsibility to raise the children or do you get 50/50 help?

I'm just curious. I work 3rd shift part-time and I take care of my kids and my friend doesn't work at all just takes care of the kids and the family dynamic is polar opposite so I just wanted to see others answers towards this.

Hey! Im 22, soon to be 23 and 5 months pregnant. Im not a "girly girl" and I am starting to out-grow my regular clothes. Does anyone know of a store, or online store, where I can get cute clothes that arent super girly? Some people have suggested I buy a larger size, but I dont want to look frumpy or "dirty". any suggestions?

We're ALL sick of "Am I pregnant" posts. In order to stop them, let's just stop ANSWERING them. Anyone with two brain cells knows that no one on yahoo answers is going to be able to magically determine whether or not someone is pregnant. So I propose that in order to end, or at least cut down on the stupid questions, we stop encouraging them. Whaddaya think?

Since female circumcision is illegal in the UK, I wondered if the labia rings could be tied together instead.

I reside in the state of Texas. My spouse is debating on whether he should sign his rights of his 6 month old daughter over to her mother. It is constant chaos and he is pretty fed up with it all. But his concern is not wanting to pay child support if he does sign his rights over. Would he have to still pay if he was to sign them over?

Can a girl get pregnant if she comes in contact with a drop of male's pre-ejaculation fluid that was already dry but made wet by saliva? Remember the fact that the case happened around a week before her due period and she has not have her period till this date.

Is there a site where you can input the height or weight of a baby to receive the measure as a percentile amongst other healthy babies?

My son is 3. And we have another son on the way in Lat Jan. 2007. And our 3 year old has never been away from us. He has never been babysat or in Daycare. If we can't take him we don't go. I don't allow his grandparents to take him anywhere with out one of us with him. My parents live 4 hours away and hubby's parents live 10+ hours away. He hardly sees them at all. We don't have any friends that have kids his age. ( Most don't have kids at all). He is a very healthy happy little boy. He is very attached to us. I think once he is ready for preschool ( Preschools here will not take kids who are not potty trained at all. And he has no desire to get potty trained yet) he will be able to part with us a little bit. I will do a co-op preschool so that I can be with him at times.
I have done mommy and me classes with him. And he dosen't play with other kids. He plays with me or by himself. People tell me that what I am doing is unhealthy for him. I don't understand why.

My son is 6, and we are in our first year of homeschooling... in a new city (Las Vegas, NV). I was going to sign him up for public school... but due to the nature of the schools here, we have decided to home school.

The complex we are in seems to not have many kids around for him to play with, and the few kids that are here don't ever seem to be outside.

What are some ideas where I can get him involved with other kids? Right now we have him in Spiral Scouts, and are looking into sports... but we would like to have regular meetings with other families... Any ideas?

Ok....have I lost control or is this normal? I have a 19 month old daughter who is throwing tantrums about EVERYTHING!! Screaming, kicking and yelling "NO" when I try to redirect her. I remove her from the situation and am consistent but it feels like she is getting worse and could care less about that. On occasion I have swatted her hand or leg and told her no and she just hits me back. Last night she flushed my cell phone down the toilet and I lost it and screamed at her and put her in her play pen so I could calm down. I am at my wits end and do not want to lose control and get on her level and scream and act like a kid myself. PLEASE someone with similar experince tell me how to get control back. She is so smart and talks very well, we have a steady schedule and do plenty of things together like read and play in her room or at the park when I get off work. I do not want to raise a brat.....help!!

I am 20 weeks pregnant with my first child...I have felt her move a few times but not to much...I had an ultrasound 4 days ago and you could see her moving but I could not feel it...I was just wondering if it was normal at this stage in my pregnancy to not feel her move...Everyone I know that has been pregnant says they felt their baby move on a daily basis between 10 and 16 weeks...Here I am halfway done and I do not feel her...Any advice would be great!!
