My 5 year old little girl, who has been potty trained since she was 2, is now starting to have "accidents". She didn't do this until she started kindergarten this year. She is very intelligent and understands that she should not wet herself, but she still does it! I have taken her to the doctor and nothing is physically wrong with her or her kidneys or bladder. She has not been sexually abused or anything like that. I just don't know what to do! Does anyone know why she may be doing this and/or what I can do to get her to stop. Thanks!

Everyone keeps telling me that I need to watch what I'm eating and to make sure I'm only eating healthy food. I do eat a lot of fruit and I'm taking my prenatal vitamins, but honestly, I am not thinking about eating health food, just something I might be able to keep down for longer than two minutes. Should I be concerned? I've lost about 15 lbs and am continuing to lose weight. I'm not eating absolutely horrible, but chicken nuggest sound good often and they seem to be the only protein I can keep down. My next appointment with my dr. is in early November and I think if I'm still this sick I'm going to ask for anti-nausea pills. She asked me if I wanted them last time I was there, but I thought I would try to ride it out.

I am due any day now and I am having some issues..lol. I dont know if its a protective instinct or what. I have been with my husband for 5 years now and married for two. This is our first baby together and I feel that it is so special and sacred. I already have this feeling that I dont want certain people to hold him, or let him be in a car with certain people. Im so afraid that he will die in his sleep because I read that white male babies are more likely to die from SIDS and that scares the pee out of me! I just feel like Im not going to get any sleep because Im gonna be starring at him to make sure he is breathing. Also people (such as parents and In-laws) are already telling me how to raise my baby and this drives me crazy! I just want to say this is my baby and I will take care of him the way I think he should be taken care of! Lol am I going crazy or have you all went through the same thing?

We have a 2yr old and a baby on the way. We both work full time. I never feel like I do anything well enough, like the house is never clean enough etc, etc. I don't even really care if I have any friends outside of work, because I just want to come home and spend all my free time with my daughter. It never feels like there are enough hours in a day. Do other families feel the same?

Some of my son's tubs of playdoh are really soft and sticky, ( they are less than a year since they were given to him) they don't smell bad, but they are so hard to play with because it sticks like mud to all the tools and moulds. The others are ok, they are still easy to play with and can still make shapes and balls with them. I don't see an expiry, should I just chuck the lousy tubs away in case its dangerous to use? Or can I just mix them together with the others to make it less sticky? Will that help? thanks for any advise!

My baby is going to have a baby... I am devestasted. I am mad, upset, hurt, angry, scared, numb, and feel like the world that I knew is gone. I know that she is should be the focus right now, but I am having a hard time dealing with my own feelings. How could she go and do this? Why??? Why me??? Why her??? Can I kill the jerk that is going to be the baby's father??? Should I send him to jail. I tried to keep them a part, I should of tried harder to get him sent to jail when he would not stop seeing her, but she keep seeing him too. So it wasn't all him, but he is an adult and she just turned 16. I just need to get this off my chest. I don't know that there is going to be any real meaning to this or logic. What are we going to do? Am I ready to raise another child, know that she is not. I screwed mine up so badly, I don't want to screw someone else up too. Maybe it would be best if we gave it up for adoption. But she doen't want to do that. I don't know that I could do that.

I am a day late for my period, but the day before i was due, (thursday) i took a pregnancy test and a very faint line filled in the plus sign! Also, i had a tiny spot of dark brown blood in my underwear on thursday(day before period was due) and another smaller spot of dark brown this friday (the day i was due) Everyone said if there was a second line, even if it was faint, then im pregnant...is this true?? Any thoughts???

We started my son on rice cereal 2 weeks ago. Last week we moved to oatmeal when he tolerated the rice fine. He's still gobbling it all up, so we're planning to move to stage 1 foods soon. He is currently just getting cereal once a day. 2 things: do I need to increase the number of times he eats solids per day and do I need to keep giving cereal at the same time I am giving him veggies or fruits?

I don't know what i'm having, but my husband and i already have jacob picked out for a boy's name. but in case it's a girl, we can decide between Autumn or Samantha. what do you think?
oh, and any suggestions for a girl's middle name? I like simple and traditional, but not extremely common. Thanks.
