My sister in law, Told me to get like a Pilates ball (One of the HUUGGGEEE round balls) and sit on it, and rock back and forth, That it would help my cervix dilate....Is this true? Anyone tried it? Or even heard of it?

I just got back from my 38wk appt. and I'm only dilated 2cm, And he said my cervix was still pretty thick and long. *sigh*

I'm READY TO HAVE HER!! Lol!

We had 2 oops less than a week apart and when period was 8 days late, I took First Response and it came up negative. Still waiting to take second test, I am now 10 days late and feeling morning sickness, sore brest and severe lazyness. Classic signs of my first 2 pregnancies. When take another test to see if I am pregnant? I had to wait 6 weeks before my second child came up positive. Maybe I carry a low level of hCG?

Last week a boy took a pocketknife to school and threatned to "kill" someone, my daughter and her friends told the principal because they didn't want anyone to get hurt, The boy was suspened for a week. He came back yesterday and pushed my daughter, got in her face and said I know you told you brat(although he is not bothering ANYONE else and was bothering her for a while. He also said I have a weapon in my pocket-do you want me to show you(which can go either the perveted way or other way)
I called the principal today and he said he would take care of it.
I am proud of what she did because nowadays you never know BUT what else can I do? I want this boy to stay away from my kid- and I do not want my daughter harassed.

everybody in germany recommends to put 1 teaspoon or so in babyfood (selfcooked, jars...), the doctors, all the babybooks, all the recipes on the internet, all the baby cook books...
reason is so that the fat in the food comes out...which is important for the baby to get all the vitamins he needs, sorry, don't know how to explain it in a better english.
i asked my pediatritian here in the us, and he said, no its not necessary, it could go back to the lungs. but somehow i know its right what they in germany do and say in this matter. still i don't do it, because he said i should't do it.
and i never saw in the recipes for babys here that you put oil (best would be rape oil) in babyfood.
so how do you do it. do you ever use oil??? did you know that oil in babyfood is good for the baby???
thanks

My friend was pregnant (she found out recently after negative tests led her to an ultrasound) and shes about 2 months along refuses to go to the doctors for this but shes been bleeding like period blood with clots although she has no pain at all not even cramps. Was it a miscariage? or just the lining of the uterus????

I started my period last the afternoon of Oct. 1. For most of my life, I am exactly every 28 days. In the last few years, I sometimes have light bleeding on day 25, and then my full period comes on day 28. So I'm pretty regular. I have had very light spotting (only occasionally- like once every other day) for the last three days, but it's not like my usual spotting. It's so light I wouldn't call it spotting at all. I had unprotected sex on my two days after I started ovulating (I got the days mixed up), but he pulled out (not that that matters, I guess). I have been really tired (falling asleep at like 10, when I usually stay up until 1 a.m. or later), and somewhat nauseated in the mid-morning. I am also really broken out (my skin), and I've been thinking about babies a lot. (unusual, for me). What are the odds I'm just late b/c I'm stressed? (has never happened before...) I'm not on birth control. I'm 22 and healthy. Pregnancy test last night (after drinking too much water) was neg.

I have only had a few symptoms : Tired, and hungry but nothing else so I was wondering if there were any OTHER ways of finding out on your own before going to the doc.

If a woman with amnesia has a strong feeling that she has children somewhere who miss her and want to find their lost mom, can her gynecologist tell her for certain that she has not had children or that she has had one or two or more children.

There is a feature story on the MSN home page where a lady had a stomach ache and a couple hours later she gave birth to a healthy baby boy. What gives? How in the heck could you mistake a stomach ache for pregnancy?

Mind you there are some adults who also give kindergarden answers, and some children who post very adult questions, but there can be some very explicit questions on this site, and the children are readily exposed to that, so i wonder if yahoo will seperate the two, or do some of us have to be extremely careful of what we say?....... this goes for all who have ever posted a sexually explicit question.....

The night my husband and I found out, we went to talk to her mother and her step-father. I was told his gf was 15 almost 16 by her and my son then I find out she is just 14. I also found out this little girl has been dating since she was 12. My 17 yr old is nothing like any other boys his age. He goes to church, very active in the youth. Now, I am not saying he is a angel but, this little girl was his first and I knew no matter how much fussing or what, the fact still remained she was pregnant. Her mother, was laughing and cutting up with her daughter while my husband and I were over talking to them about this situation. Which, I felt was NO Laughing matter at all. Her parents were excited about the whole thing. Her mother and Step-Father have no biological children together so, it seemed to me this baby was going to be more so her mother's and step-dads baby. Since that night, my son who is supposed to be the father, is not allowed to call their house, go over there. Makes me wonder?

Ok, here it goes. My fiance and I have been trying to conceive since March 06 and it's now November. In august I had a period at the beginning of the month. Then on August 31st I started spotting and stopped stopping on September 2nd. Well, I didn't get a period the month October and I was due on the 2nd again. I'm due once again today. I took a test about a month ago but it was a cheap test for $1, and doctors say they aren't very good. I've been having symptoms and feeling weird, and no period. My fiance and I have had unprotected sex everyday almost for 8-9 months! Do you think I maybe pregnant? Im having liquid come out of one of my boobs so far, feels like butterflies in my lower stomach and like something is kicking me, tired, nausea. What's the possibility that I'm pregnant? Can a cheap dolar test come up negative and be wrong?

When you start your baby on baby food how long do you give them one thing (so you know if they are allergic) before you change to another kind?

If the father is not paying child support and is not seeing the baby, do you think I should just ask him to sign his rights away? Or is it better to make him take responsibilty and have to pay support or he will suffer the legal consequences?

I really don't want to deal with him forever and he is a stranger to my child. He is also a poor example as a father, one that I wouldn't want my son to emulate. However, I still don' t want him to "get off the hook", so to speak.

What would you do???
