Pregnancy & Parenting - 2 November 2006

I am 39 weeks pregnant and my baby is still moving around ALLOT, i know this is good, but a friend told me that when labour is near the baby will go very quiet for a few days before labour.
Does this mean I am still weeks from labour or can your baby be active all the way up to labour?

I have a 28 day cycle. On day 14 where ovulation begins, if you try and conceive, and lets say "the egg was fertilized" on that day, then on day 28, would this be the time where you would "miss" your first period. Or do you have to wait for the next month?

Serious answers only please.


I'm currently 13 weeks pregnant without insurance. Also, I live in Pennsylvania. I have had prenatal checkups and bloodwork and stuff done, but my mother-in-law in paying out of her pocket for everything.

My husband and I already applied for Medicare/Medicaid through the assistance office, but we got denied because we slightly make too much money.

At my work, pregnancy is a pre-existing condition and it won't be covered on my insurance if I picked it up.

The only other thing that I have done so far is apply for something at our hospital called the I-Care Fund. It only pays a % of laboratory work that you get done at the hospital such as bloodwork, etc. And they are going to pay 40% of the laboratory fees and a woman at the office said that it might cover the labor, but she's not sure.

If anyone has any other advice on what I should do, please tell me. I feel really bad that my mother-in-law has to pay for everything.

OKAY... so I'm LACTATING. Are you supposed to this early? Okay, and I know, TMI, and this is a gross situation, but I will tell you anyways. We were gonna have sex, it was foreplay, he started to, you know, lick and suck my nipples and then he spit something out into his hand and started to gag and make a face and I just looked at him and asked him what the hell his problem was. It was a clear, weird fluid coming out of my breast. Could it be infected? Yeah, I'm a class A moron, so I don't have a clue, but apparently SOMETHING is coming out of them and lol, I think there will be no sex for the rest of the day as a result. Ha ha, he still gags everytime he sees a milk add or a happy cow commercial, so I think that's it for today. But okay, seriously tho, is there something I should be doing or is this a normal thing going on in my system? *lol, I still feel so bad for my poor baby... he's still gagging, so I better throw the milk carton away... :-\*

I have a 3 and 4 year old and some nights, it's a pain to get them to pick up their toys. I am tired of picking them up myself. I would like to be able to do my dishes or something while they are picking up the toys. I've helped them pick them up, pointed toys out, I've even threatened to get rid of some of the toys, all to no avail. Any ideas???

We have adopted a child since birth and we love her dearly. She's now one year old and we're worried when the time comes when we have to tell her the truth without hurting her feelings. If you're also an adopted child, how did it feel when you learned the truth?

I'm reading a book called "Toilet Training in less than a day" by two doctors, Azrin and Foxx. I'm wondering if anyone out there has ever tried this method, and was it a positive experience? My son is almost 2 1/2 and I think he's ready, and any advice on this particular method would be helpful. Thank you!

I have a child who's 11 years old. While she's a loving child; I discovered that she gets defiant when she doesn't get her way. My problem and I'll admit, it's my fault; that we have bonded like "sisters" so to speak. Therefore, she took advantage. She plays both sides of the fence (going to grandma when she is turned down by me for certain things) lying and talking back.

I am at my wits end with her!! Several times I have exploded with regret. I don't know what to do!
