If you have children, tell their ages and how many times you cook and sit down to a dinner during a week. (and I don't mean you pop a frozen pizza in the oven)

I started my period last thurs 12th after 2 weeks of agonising if i was pregnant or not, it has been a strange period to say the least i have had a signifigant amount of clotted blood which i never get what is this? also my periods are normally every 28 days this one was 27 "think due to the stress" does that mean that my periods will be every 27 days now?? "sound silly i know" it is just my partner and i are trying for a baby and i like to know when my period is due and when i will be ovulating, will i have to change everything around now i.e ovulation etc, or is it due to stress?? advice would be most appreciated.

My girlfriend is about 37.5 weeks along and she is having contractions about 9min apart. She also has toxemia (we were at hospital for 2 days just yesterday and Friday)
Should she go to hospital again? They said yesterday they will have to induce labor no matter what sometime this week.

Anyone have experience in this? She is crying right now, I feel bad cuz I don't know what to do.

My boy (18 months) loves milk. A little too much actually. That's all he wants. I understand it is not healthy to over do it with milk because it inibits iron absorption. That being said do you have any advice for me. Thanks

I am 38 weeks pregnant. My last appointment was last wednesday and I was 1cm dilated, 90%effaced, soft and up-close. My baby has dropped and is ready in position as well. I have an appointment tomorrow and I was wondering if I am dilated more will they send me to the hospital? I have heard that when some women go to the doc. they find out they have dilated a whole lot more they will go straight to the hospital for labor. Why is that, even if they havent naturally gone into labor? and what will they make you do when you go to the hospital? will they induce? thanks! I am new to all of this and just wondering some experiences.
oh yeah, I have been having sex and walking to help out..I also have like a ton of the braxton hicks everyday, so hopefully it will be more.

The discharge didn't have any smell. Also a few days ago my nipples were a little sore, just the nipples though not the breasts. According to my ovulation calender I ovulated a week and a half ago. So what do you guys think?

We don't go back to the doctor until Tuesday. A couple of people have told me to give her a tad bit of nyquil to help her sleep. I don't know if that's a good idea or not. Has anybody ever given their little ones nyquil?

Especially if they are married and have to take care of him also. I'm not talking about ALL new mothers. But I see these women in the mall and grocery stores and they have gained what apears to be substantial amounts of weight. There must be a reason for this besides eating.

If a women who is 42 and had her tubes tied 17 years ago had sex in August and has had 3 normal periods since, pretty well know for sure that she is not pregnant?

Also she took a home test just to get me to leave her alone in september which was negative.

Is it safe to say this lady isnt going to have my baby?

Is it 100% positive that she didnt get pregnant?

Okay there's this guy I like, he just got out of a bad realationship like a month actually a bit longer than that ago, they both dated for a year and she ran off with another guy, how long should I wait before trying to ask him out

***Note: We've talked about going out some, in fact he said when he felt more comfortable about dating he'd like to try it, but still how long should I wait to say something about it?
