i went to the doctor explainig that i havent been able to concieve and that i dont ever recall getting pregnant and that i was producing breast milk not alot just like a drop and its mostly from only 1 of my breast and he explaind to me that i have something called Galactorrhea.

he told me that was preventing me from getting pregnant and that i was going to take a medication called BROMOCRIPTINE a substitue for PARLODEL that it was going to stop me from producing the breastmilk and then id be able to get pregnant even while taking the pill.
any one kno of this being true

the problem now is that i went to another doctor to get a second opinion and he told me to get on birthcontrol so i still havent takin todays dose should i stop birth control and take the pill or how long should i wait for this.

So I asked earlier if the chance of getting pregnant by someone if they are not hard is slim...good answers. I know that it needs to have *** on it but I didn't know because it did touch me down there and it did go in about an inch. maybe.....i don't know either way are you sure that the chances are slim? I am 23 and I'm not slutty my boyfriend and i were broken up, and I have already seen the other guy in the past. I guess I'm just worrying too much....But i just want to know....help

Everyone tells me how incredibly cute AND smart my daughter is and they all swear that she is the Gerber baby. I was never one to involve any of my kids into anything like that but I feel that I may be passing up a chance for her to try this thing out. I just want her to be able to do it for fun and am not really worried too much about the money part and don't want her to be a kid actor who's life has gotten all messed up. Anyway, with that said, where should I start. I live in a small city. The closest city is Detroit and that's about 45 minutes away. When I search online, all i get is people saying I have to pay to sign up, etc which is a scam.

My baby has been getting a little worse at night everyday but last night was really bad. I couldn't get her to stop crying for almost 3 hours. She's also been really gassy. I had colic as a baby could she be getting the same thing? How can I help her calm down? I feel really bad since everyone in the house needs to wake up early.

To those reading the pregnancy postings, there is an answerer touting herself as an OB/GYN and giving her email address to answer medical questions. She has admitted in her response to a separate question:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Akw3ZAOjMCj86KISTjQ4mzfsy6IX?qid=20061019121029AAWIAzr
that she is just a high school senior (if that is even true).

Please be careful and do not follow her medical advice without your doctor's confirmation that it is true.

Out of curiosity, is there anyone on here who would accept medical advice provided by an answerer, claiming to be a medical doctor, without first confirming it with an independent search of the internet or by asking her own doctor?

I love Elmo but why can't you find the T.M.X. Elmo in stores? And why are people paying huge bucks for them on Ebay? Is it so necessary to have one by Christmas? If I find one in the store great, I'll buy it but no way am I pay $100+ for one! I think the retail price of $40 is kind of a rip off.

My niece is 3 years old. She picks up anything and everything and it goes right in her mouth. Before anyone says anything negative she has something wrong with her and we have not gotten a diagnosis yet. I stand over her all the time yet she is so quick. Today she picked up a field mouse that one of the cats killed and put it in her mouth. I washed her up real good and used hand sanitizer. I also put some mouth wash on a q tip and cleaned her mouth real good. I believe I did everything right, but is there anything else I should do? Is there anyway to get her to understand that she shouldnt do this? I have tried everything that the doctors told me to do, but it dont seem to be helping any. Other then this she is the sweatest lil girl. Thanks for you help in advance.

I have had unprotected sex with my boyfriend many times. One time I messed around with another guy and we didn't have sex because he couldn't get hard. It was down there and we tried to but couldn't. Is there a chance he could be the father? We didn't have sex but it was down there. No real penetration we just tried to make it happen by sort of pushing it but it didn't work. My boyfriend on the other hand has ejaculated inside of me.........i just want to know if theres a chance....help?

There are so many questions on here from young girls and women about thinking they are pregnant and they aren't married and they don't know what to do. And there are a lot of them from girls and women who don't know the basics of reproduction, like about ovulation and menstrual cycles and when you can get pregnant. Hence all of the "Could I be pregnant?" questions that are posted. Are people not taught basic reproductive health? And why are so many young people already sexually active? And why are so many people getting on here and saying they use the withdrawal method and think they are pregnant? What is going on? I knew about ovulation and menstrual cycles and that the pull out method is not effective by the time I was 14. And I never would have dreamed of having sex at such a young age. Are we failing the young people somewhere, that they aren't learning these things?

Ok.. Now...before I go any further I want to make sure it's understood. I love my daughter NO MATTER what her decision is.

The question and search for advice I have is.. My daughter (14yo) has voiced that she might be more interested in girls than boys. As long as she has love in her life Yippee for her!!! However, I'm now leary to allow her to spend the night at her friends houses because I don't want her to get sexually active too soon. Am I being a bad parent?

I love her and want her to have a social life in highschool.. but what am I to do?

HELP!!

The American Pediatric Association recommends that children 2 years and under watch no TV at all. This means no Baby Einstein, PBS or anything else.

The average 1 year old watches 6 hours of television per week.

How do you feel about allowing your baby to watch TV? I see a lot of questions of people allowing their babies as young as 4 months old to watch TV.

What are you feelings about this?
