Why do people insist on answering these questions inaccurately? Yes you can get pregnant from anal sex if the ejaculate runs out of her anus and into her vagina. If you decide to have sex, then you should wear a condom, no matter where you decide to stick it, unless you are planning to get pregnant.

Why do people answer inaccurately? Obviously they think they are giving the right answer, or just being mean, but really i don;t think you should answer if you don;t really know.

Maybe I am just being too hormonal, I am pregnant after all.

I was told that when a pregnant woman is angry or sad the baby can pick up on these systoms. it causes premature birth and sometimes children are born angry. so my concern is when we have sex does the sensations go to the babys brain via the blood stream. just wondering

I used to have my sister in law, and husband.
These days I have had it with her.

she will be hurt, we love her but keeping our distance these days concidering the amount of respect she has shown us.

I know there are a lot of questions about this here, but I haven't found any for this age group. I'd like him to quit using it before he's 12 months old. He's too young to understand anything like a soother fairy story. He only uses it on long car trips and during naps. I'm wondering if I should I go gradually or break it all at once? Any suggestions?

My 4 year old had a mild case of impetigo last month. She had about 12 spots on her back, hips and legs.Can she get this again or is she 'immune' from it now? I was trying to find this out online. I assume she got it from preschool that she attends, but I asked and the teachers said they hadn't heard of any other child there that had it. Any help is appreciated.

As soon as Wal-Mart decorated for Halloween we would go back there and look at decorations and such. I think when it hit was when they put this big dracula looking thing above the entrance to Lawn & Garden where all the Halloween stuff was when my daughter started to get scared.

We can not even take her anywhere to look at costumes for Halloween, not even the toy section at Wal-Mart where there are pretty princess outfits. I can not even walk into the store Wal-Mart now without her screaming, she associates Wal-Mart with Halloween.

My mother has this cute little Halloween man on her front porch, not scary at all, totally cute. My daughter will not even walk up the sidewalk they have, we have to carry her because she starts screaming.

Can anyone help or have the same situation?
We obviously are not going trick or treating this year :)

I kinda have a weird situation. My husband has a cold sore right now on his lip, I have never had cold sores at all in my life either! But anyways... I woke up this morning with a red rash looking thing on the areas that he kissed that night. It started off on my neck area ( a bunch of red bumps ) then like a couple hours later my chin and lips broke out... Its like where ever he touched I have this awful looking rash thing. I have two blisters on my lip that hurt, and I know these arnt pimples at all. Does this sound like it can happen? This can spread to other parts of the body... its just weird its in the spots that he kissed, and no where else? Please help me out here.
Oh btw, thats the only places I have them. Im not worried about anywhere else... like gential herpes or something. I just have had these on my neck and face for like a day now.

My 7 year old daughter was playing at a friends house, when thier 6 year old son opened the back door and their pit bull wiggled into the house and for no reason attacked my daughter! She has a horrible puncture wound on her leg and some cuts and bruises on her leg, hip and shoulder. That dog could have killed her! The owner had to pull the dog off of her! I am posting this in parenting because in the dog section everyone is against banning pit bulls. I would like to know what parents think. This is a family of mexicans (which I have no problem with) but when this happened, the adults jumped in their cars and left! The next day we heard them gossiping about it and they said that my daughter is a brat anyway....how should I deal with that?

My oldest daughter has about anything/everything, Ipods, CD's, gaming devices, etc...she loves being outside, very much into fashion, and totally grown out of "dolls", she's into sports, but a girlie girl, if that makes sense...any unique ideas out there?? Oh, i'm not all that interested in Gift Cards, Spa Packages, etc, she has two little sisters, so she'll want "real gifts" to unwrap. Thanks

My husband is studying for a test. Really he is NOT studying--he's procrastinating but every time he comes near me he wants me to ask him quiz him on information he doesn't even understand. So I sit there for about ten minutes asking questions then get frustrated. Is it wrong of me to not want to help him study? We have two boys (one of which is in school with FAS) and I feel like I'm constantly quizzing someone, making a PB&J, cleaning a diaper, or giving baths. It's not that I don't want to help him but I want him to help himself before he needs me. I don't know how to get the point across that it's not that I don't want to help him but that I have better things that need to get done. Does this make any sense? If you were in the situation what would you do?

I have a 4 month old thet had the stomach virus a few weeks ago and couldn't keep her bottle down. The doctor told me to start giving her cereal and bannanas and see if that stayed down. Well, she took both from a spoon fine. Has had no allergic reactions, and has digested it fine. I ahve since began giving her other foods since she did so well with the bannanas. Is this bad for her at this age. She is still taking her formula look normal, and has actually went up on how much she was taking. But I also give her 2 jars of baby food a day. Is it okay to continue feeding her solids?

My daughter is two years old and can say things like da da, ma ma, all done, thank you, what's that, pee pee, etc. When did your child make the jump and finally start being able to talk to you where you and any one else could understand?

We read to her, talk to her, all the things we should be doing I am just worried she is not where she should be...please help.

I'm trying to start my 7 month old son on a sippy cup. I'm introducing it slowly, substituting 2 bottles for a sippy cup a day. He refuses to drink from it. He chews on the spout and won't drink from it. He is getting a new tooth, but still I nkow that you are supposed to have your child weaned from bottle to sippy cup by 1 year of age and I intend to do so. (Especially since I've seen all too many kids who are 2+ years in stores with bottle in mouth.) I'm not going to go cold turkey on him unitl he's about 12-13 months old, but I'd love some advice on transistion and what more I could be doing.

My 2yr old son speaks very well. He has a good vocabulary and speaks in some complete sentences. He never had any stutter or indication of one. Suddenly, basically overnight, he has began stuttering. He'll repeat the first word of the sentence about 10 times before continuing with the entire sentence. Anyone have a similar experience and advice?

Like every 30min to and hour, more if you drink a lot of water? I went in thinking I was catching a UTI very early, and this is when I discovered I was pregnant...and no infection. Just a bit of pressure on the bladder and feeling like you have to go all the time. It's annoying. I never hold it, so I live in the bathroom it seems.

Sunday Morning we turn our back for 2 seconds and he got into our desk drawer and put some household staples in his mouth, he immeadtly threw up one of them, but I could tell he was havin a hard time swallowing whatever was left. We took him to the Hospital and they did an x-ray and said "Yes there is ONE in there and he should pass it within 72 hrs" well, we got a copy of the x-ray and it looks lke more than one staple. It looks like it is 4-5 of them stuck together in a row, like how they come, I could see how they ER thought it to be just one, but it is too big to be just one, they are only the little household stapler staples and the one in the x-ray looks to long to be just one. To me that seems like more to pass and more that could damage is intestines...I called the doc, but no one has called back yet...should I take him back to the ER or wait for the doc to call, or just let it pass...HELP!!!

My biological father last week told me that he would no longer be a part of my life if I continued to date outside my race (white I assume). Thing is...he's half white and half Puerto Rican and told me only to date white men. I like a variety of different people because when it all comes down to it, its only our character inside that counts. He said he refuses to have a mulatto grandchild. Yes the majority of men I date are black, and yes I did grow u in the ghetto (with only my mother, no father around). Aren't fathers suppose to be around regardless of who someone is dating no matter one's skin color?
