I have two childern, 3 year old girl and a 7 mo old boy and we just bought this house and it is one level because that is what I wanted because I was scared that one of the kids would fall down the steps or fall out the window, or the house would catch on fire and I wouldn't make it up stairs to save my kids.So, I thought with getting a one level that would make it better, but now I am afraid of my little girl getting up in the middle of the night and going out one of the outside doors or someone breaking in and taking one of them, I have three locks on every door that leads outside and to the garage, it is so bad that I don't ever sleep with my husband I am either in my daughters bed with her or in the floor in my sons room. How can I get this negative thoughts out of my head? And do any of you think like this???HELP!!!!

I am a native english speaker but I want my baby to only hear spanish in the house hold. I am majoring in spanish so I don't think this would be too difficult of a task. I read that your child can learn english from the school and else where outside the home. I want to know if this is a good idea, and how to go about doing this? (The father is hispanic also)

WIth my first two babies I had so many crazy dreams about them. Things such as, what they looked like, how they cried, the labor, and even horror dreams about people taking them. This time I haven't had any dreams yet. There is a lot of stress at home with reconstruction of the house, not being ready for the baby yet, and the possible threat of my husband losing his job do to lack of work. Do you think that this is odd or just normal?

My friend is in a terrible state. She has a bf and had a fling. She had sex with both men 5 days apart. Her OB says she's pregnant and couldnt say who may be the father. Her bf doesnt know about the fling and thinks the baby is his and is willing to give-up school to earn a living for the baby. The fling is nowhere to be found. My friend wants her bf to be the father but afraid he might not be the father. She is confused she wants to get rid of the baby. What to do?

In the last 3 months we have only had sex about once every 2 weeks....we used to do it 2 or 3 times a week. I feel really insecure about my body and his lack of interest is really affecting my self esteem.I don't have the confidence in myself that I used to have. What should I do?

My daughter wakes up in the middle of the night crying for me to hold her, which eventually leads to her sleeping in my room. She doesn't sleep in her room for longer than 2-3 hours. She has never really slept all the way thru the night when she was an infant except for maybe a total of 5 times. I have tried letting her cry to sleep but that doesn't work either. I have run out of ideas. Please help!

I am under extreme amounts of stress from outside circumstances. My Dr. told me that my daughter (37 1/2 weeks) slowed growing because of my increased adrenaline levels. Well, this revelation did nothing to calm me down. Can you suggest anything to calm me down? Both of my other pregnancies were exactly the same down to birth weight and length. My third had been on par up until this point. I am so worried about the effects of my worrying.

ok, my boobs hurt. im done with my period, not due to start again in a while. and my boobs are sore. yeah, i know, go take a pregnancy test, but I'm not late yet. in fact, my cycle is so screwed up from having pneumonia. I had a 3 week period because of it, which my doc says is normal. I finally started to go back to normal this month and had a period, although it was kinda light. And my boobs arent big at all, so its not like they are hurting from that. So what do u think? I have an IUD, so my chances or pregnancy are only 0.1% and its not something I can screw up like the pill. I had an ultrasound in the beginning of the month, to make sure everything was ok after my long period from being sick. And everything was fine. So yeah, has anyone had sore boobs really early in pregnancy? Or am I just reaching, cuz I want to be pregnant? (I'm married, already have a child)

Ever since my nephew had teeth, he's been biting my daughter (there the same age). Some people would tell me it's because he couldn't talk for a long time so that was his way of getting his frustrations out? I don't know...he stopped for about 8 months now and just bit my daugther tonight so bad it broke the skin on 2 fingers. I was LIVID!!! I was so mad I couldn't even speak. The thing that made me the maddest was my nephew said it was bcuz my daugther pinched him (which I find very hard to believe) but even so, even if she did, he should've been given a time out instead of being consoled by his dad!! I'm so mad I want to talk to my sister about it, but I know she felt really really bad :( What should I do, if anything?

My 5-yr old kid peed on his bedroom floor today. He has been toilet-trained for a couple of years. He has done this a couple times before; once he peed in the empty laundry hamper and once in the cat litterbox (at least that kind of made sense!). I was pretty upset since the bathroom was unoccupied and there was no reason why he did it. He didn't have an explanation. Has this ever happened to you? Should it be something to worry about? I just made him clean it up and went on with the day.
