We have call waiting, forwarding, and cell phones
So she's not tying up the phone. I also walk by her door & listen so I know what they're talking about. Sould I set a limit?

I am going to the bathroom every 30 minutes or so, and when I go, it's very little. I know I don't have a bladder infection because I am taking antibiotics for the bladder infection right now and I'm on my last pill (and my symptoms went away after a day or two on antibiotics.) It really is a different feeling, I've never felt like I had a really full bladder with an infection before. But with whatever is going on right now, it feels like I have a ton of liquid sitting in there but there really is hardly any. I have a tilted uterus and I know it sits further back that most people. If it's the baby at 14 weeks, I don't honestly know how I'm going to handle it when the baby gets bigger.

Hello.........I am looking for anyone who has insight on what I am dealing with....

My daughter had a wonderful pediatrician but the ped. had to leave and start her own pratice (we miss her!!) Anyways, they sent a new doctor to replace her. My daughter who is 15 months old had to get her last set of shots by the new guy. As he was doing her well-baby check up he said something about the folds of her "little girl parts" (inner vaginal folds) not separating corrrectly on their own. It was very hard to understand him, being that he was of a foreign accent. I asked why this would happen to her and all he said was "Just because,... I will give you a prescription for it." I was confused but went along with it anyway. Also this Dr. was very rough, all through the examination my daughter was crying when he looked at her vagina and he didn't care!! He even teased her when he was done, she wanted her little puppy toy and he kept on holding it out of her reach. She just kept on crying, of which she rarely does because she is such a happy baby. I was unnerved and shocked and had to hold back my own tears because I didn't know what to say.
As we went to pick up the prescription, the pharmacy was confused as to why the doctor would prescribe this medicine for my daughter, initially they thought the cream was for me!! Because, come to find out, the prescription was for a medicine called "Premarin". I know that this medicine is an estrogen enhancer and is usually given to women going through menopause!! Not to mention , it cost $75.00 for a tube of it. Of which I couldn't afford!! The dr. only wanted me to use it on my daughter 3x a week for 2 weeks (that's only 6 times!!) and the tube was bigger than the average toothpaste tube!!

So, does anybody know what is going on? I am being bias because it's my first child? Can anyone help me out? Please email me, my email is drgnfly@avci.net

Oh, by the way, my daughter has been examined multiple times by her previous pediatrician for her regular check-ups.....and they never mentioned anything like this before.

THANK-YOU so much for taking the time to read this.

I was 4 weeks pregnant and I misscarried today. I not only feel like I lost apart of me but I feel I lost apart of my husband and most of all my child. I was not prepared to be a mother when I first found out I was pregnant but I acclimated to situation really fast. I had a love for my unborn child that I cant explain. Now I want back what I once had. I know I can always try again but I dont know if I should wait until I feel financially prepared or if I should try again. The question is, when will I ever feel financially stable. I may find myself waiting forever. I am 24 and I have been married for almost 2 years but I have been with my husband for 6. I own my own home and am a year away from getting my bachelors in Business Management. I feel I have all the crudentials I just want to be able to give my child the world. Am I ready? Will I every be ready, and if so, when? What should I do?

and how long does he/she sleep? My son typically goes to bed around 9 and then gets up at 5 or 6 for a bottle then will go back to be for another hour or 2. He is 4 1/2 months old and I know I'm lucky that he sleeps that long. I feel like his bedtime is late but I don't want to be up at 3 am with him either.

I haven't gained any weight, but things have definitely shifted. Even my comfy pants don't feel comfy anymore. I'm not quite 7 weeks! I don't want to waste money on maternity pants now if I'm just going to need bigger ones later...but seriously, when do you need to start shopping for different pants?

My mother-in-law wants to babysit our baby for a whole weekend. I'm breastfeeding and not sure how much milk I need to save up before I can let her babysit. I'm not even really sure how much he's supposed to eat a day since I just let him nurse until he's finished each time and have no idea (in ounces) how much he is eating each time.

XX = Male, XY=Female. This is purely determined by a Male only. OK. Biologically When X is produced and When Y is produced by a Male? Is there any specific eating habbit will produce X only or due to over sex one (male) will get Y only? I invite answers from any of the Medical Practioner and from people who read stuffs in books. Any site explain this basic concept please also refer. TNQ.

My little girl is drooling so much that the back of her head gets wet with saliva. She put her whole fists in her mouth and knaws on them. She isn't eating as much in one feeding so I'm feeding her more frequently. And she was just crying and crying tonight for reasons I couldn't figure out. I tried to feel for ridges and I thought I felt some bumps butI don't know if it was perfectly smooth before so- I don't know what to compare it to.

Could she be teething? I thought it was too soon but, I think she may be.

She is 7.5 years old. She still believes in Santa and the Easter bunny. She wanted me to go to bed before she fell asleep (so she could hide her tooth). I think she was seeing if the tooth fairy is real. Should I come out with the truth or let it go unitl she proves it?

Not that it really matters what sex but it is interesting! Thanx

My Husband and I have been trying to conceive, (as per previous question) well, I have been have these weird cramps when I get up from sitting, so I decided to take a pregnancy test and it came out positive. Can it detect it this early or should i just wait until closer to when my pregnancy should start? Please only serious answer, keep your smart remarks to yourself, Thank You.

Why are there people who ask us if they are pregnant? Are we doctors? And most of the time 90% of the advice is just to go take a test. I'm pregnant with my third child, I have never had the need to seek out advice on line to know whether or not I was pregnant. I went to the store and got a test or I went to the doctor. I'm not trying to be rude to people but is there anyone else besides me who is tired of seeing that question day after day by different people?
