The receptionist reminded me today that I need to come to my appointment with a full bladder, and that I was to drink plenty of water. Why is a full bladder neccesary for the 4d ultrasound, is this also with any type of ultrasound. Thanks.

I just asked a question about experiencing miracles. The main response I got from my questions was being blessed about having a baby growing inside of you and actually having kids. I think I have a problem and wondering if anyone shares the same problem as I do. My problem is when I see something that really turns my stomach, my knees go weak and as i call it I feeling spastic (without that sounding mean or calling anyone names). A year ago in November my partners sister gave birth to her first child and I will always remember when she was sitting there one day and she said "oh my baby's foot is stuck under my ribs, oh its a bit uncomfortable" the thought of that happening to me one day makes me shiver as i say i would feel spastic i think because things being inside me is fine but the thought of a babies foot being up here in that position makes me get goose bumps. I even quiver when my partner hugs me and his arm reats on my rib area. I dont think i will cope with a baby inside of me

How much should I expect to pay a babysitter -- high school age -- per hour to watch my 5 year old? We live in Hawaii, if that makes any difference.

Don't get me wrong, I know you are to NEVER let a baby sleep on his/her tummy, but he sleeps better that way. He's six weeks old and while he's on his tummy, he has his head turned to the side. Might I add that he can lift his head on his own and turn from side to side on his own . I swear this kid's been here before! LOL! Is it safe to let him nap on his tummy since he can move his head on his own??

Does anyone know if you are allowed to decide weather or not to have a cesearn or have natural. I know most women are scared of cesearn but I'm scared of natural especially after my last baby. The labor and delievry was fast but very painful. The doctor said I tore extremely bad so I was in pain for two weeks and had to go through labor my friend who had a cesearn was in pain for 2 weeks and didn't have to go through labor

I am 5 months pregnant with twin boys. My husband and I are having a delima on where they should sleep when they are born. I personally want them to sleep together, at least for the first few months but I read that two babies should never sleep together, and that it is a cause of S.I.D.S. That is somthing that really worries me so I of course do not want to raise the risk.

I do still think that they should be together though, after all when they where born will have spent 9 months together all the time.

If I do have them sleep together the first few months once they hit 3 or 4 months I plan to move them to seprate cribs in there nursery.

I just dont know what to do. I want whats best for my boys. There my first born so I'm pretty paranoid about everything.

I need ideas and sugestions from other moms or dads or twins.

Thanks

We just gave him a breathing treatment and well i guess my question is, is when i take his temp does it affect it weather he is screaming or not. I mean if he is crying does it make the temp go up even higher. and what is the normal temp for a tolder that is teething. PLease i need some answers Thanks

I am facing a 4 yrs old kid who will easily get angry when she was tried but still want to play and refuse to sleep. sometime she will angry for nothing. When she angry for nothing, most of the time I would try to talk to her and let her focus on other thing and later she will agree to sleep.
But someone told me i should punish her instead of doing all the talking thing. Beat her, she will know that it is not right to angry for nothing.

What do u think?

how can you enjoy sex? do you all take the pill? Without pill its horrible, you always think about getting pregnant I think.

But what kind of life is that, living with a pill. I'd rather have no sex at all. True love is ultra rare anyway I think.

July 2005, I had my tubes tied. Recently, I've had alot of abdomal pain. It started out as what I thought was just cramps, over the last 2 weeks it's gotting worse. It's a constant pain now. My period's are not normal, they're either really heavy or just spotting. more so spotting with heavy discharge after. This past week, my breast started hurting, my lower back. I get light headed, weak, just almost no energy. Sex, well it just hurts. A couple months ago, I had a pap test come back adnormal, do to no insurance and no money, I'm not able to get the rest of the testing done. So I'm concerned, Could this be, that I'm pregnant or just something to do with the pap test? Please if you can help me in anyway, I would be greatful. Thank you for your time! nicole

When shoul your breasts become sore if you are pregnant,before or after a missed period. I'm feeling really excited right now because, my period is suppose to come on the 18th of this month and my breasts are already sore! they usually don't become sore until 2-3 days before I come on my period. I've had a baby before and never really paid attention to what point in the pregnancy my breasts started to get sore. Did any one pay attention? I'm taking a survey all answers are appreciated:).
