I've been reading up from 4-5 months is when it starts showing you are pregnant. Pictures would be nice to give me an idea.
Also if someone can lead me to how pregnant stomach's looks at 1, 2, and 3 months would be great also.

I've realized that lately I have doing some stuff that is considered unhealthy a lot lately, and all my friends think that I'm over doing it. I get drunk (and not just the wabbling when I walk drunk; the falling down, can't find my clothes, can't feel my feet drunk) two or three times a week. After every time I drink, I've almost always gone at least 24 hours without eating.
I also have sex (sober) two or three nights a week (not counting how many times I do it each night) and not counting all of my drunken mistakes.
I have very active physically and I watch my diet and take relatively good care of my body except for these little esapades. I drink ALOT of water every day, but my friends are still egging on me to tone things down, even the ones that are partying with me some of the time. Am I over doing things?

I am 37 wks and as of yesterday I am 1cm dilated 90% effaced, soft and up-close. The doc. said since I progressed so much from my last appointment a week ago it could be very soon. Today I have been on the run alot and didnt have much time to rest and I walked alot! I started having contractions..nothing bad, but I just had a really strong!!!! pain in my lower stomach. It started at my belly button and like it rolled down to my pelvic area. I have never felt a pain that strong before. Now my vagina is hurting. Was that a contraction? it only lasted for about 5 sec. and now my lower left side has a dull pain..near the lower left ovarie i would say. My husband has to get up early in the morning and I dont want to go to the hospital unless its bad so he can sleep. Has anyone else experienced this? Is that a contraction, is my cervix dilating because vagina is hurting so much now? I know your not doc. but some experience and advice will be appreciated! Thanks for all your help!

I'm about 5 months pregnant, and things are going very horribly with the father right now. I don't know why, but for whatever reason the last couple days I've just started to panic about being a single mom!! How am I going to do it?? How do y'all do it? I'm in the middle of getting a degree, but that's going to take longer now that I have the baby. How do you all pay for rent and car insurance and groceries and child care?? I can't imagine how hard it must be!!

I have a two year old and a four year old. I need to start going to the gyno everyweek because I am due to have a baby soon. Next week the doctor is going to start internal examinations. My husband is working when I needed to make the appointment and so are all my other family members. I am very open with my girls about stuff. My 4 year old knows there is a special hole for the baby to come out because she was worried the baby was going to push through my tummy. Is it ok to bring them or is this not ok?

I'm not talking about abuse, but things like reading your diary, breaking you up with a boyfriend, never letting you sleep over friends houses etc? I treat my mom terribly due to things she did 15, 20 years ago that I have just never forgiven. Did she really think I would just "grow up" and forget?

What do you feel are the pros and cons of being a stay at home mom or dad? My husband and I have a 19month old daughter, and my husband is the working one. The hours arent too demanding, so he still has a good ammount of time with us. I also work from home when I have the down time, because I enjoy it, and it help build a retirement income for us. We really love the situation, and cant fathom having to pay someone to raise our child for us. I know other choose differently, and thats ok. What have your experiences with stay at home parenthood been? Pros cons? How did you make the choice? Was your own mom or dad a stay at home parent, and did you appreciate it? Just wanting to hear from others in a similar situation as me. Thanks and god bless you all!

I s it reasonable for a parent to sleep on the couch and give their bedroom to their teen who is in need of privacy and personal space? they are currently sharing with a younger sibling.
