I have just recently started having trouble changing my 8 month old's diaper. He is incredibly strong. He keeps flipping over, screaming, screeching, and crawling away when I'm trying to change his diaper. I've tried giving him toys to distract him. I've tried holding his arms down with my legs. I've tried continuously flipping him back over. I'm trying to teach him the word "no", but he is not grasping the meaning yet. Nothing that I've tried has worked. I have reached the point where I dread the next diaper change soley because of the fight that it brings. I forgot to mention that I'm a stay at home, so this fight happens 10 to 12 times per day. I have changed many diapers in my life, but I have never seen a child fight this hard. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm so exhausted.

I am 52, my partner is 55. He had a vasectomy 25 years ago, but never went for tests afterwards. Because of my age and the fact that he had the operation made me pretty sure I could not get pregnant. I am having symptoms of pregnancy....could it be the onset of menopause and what are the chances of me actually being pregnant....has anyone been in my situation?

If you agree with biting back, tell me why but only after reading this above. It is for a school project. Thanks for your help.

I have a daughter who is 13 months and I am three months pregnant. They will be about 18 months apart. Any advice on how to prepare her or what to expect of the whole experience of bringing baby home?

My neighbor told me her dogs were sniffing at her belly before she even knew she was pregnant with her first child. My dog hasn't seemed to notice yet (I'm 15 wks), but my cats insist on staying curled up on my tummy any time I lay down. I've noticed it's especially true with the cat that has had a litter of kittens before. Anyone else notice their pets reacting strangely when they got pregnant?

I am 36 weeks 3 days and just had my first bout of false labor contractions (15 minutes apart, one minute each, for 3 hours). With other mothers- how long was it until you went into real labor???

This weekend I bought the following at Old Navy online:

13 shirts, 2 knitted yoga-like capris and 2 knitted yoga-like pants.

I paid $189 including taxes and shipping, so that is about $11 per piece of clothing.

I still need to buy 2 pair of jeans, 1 pair of shorts, underwear, bras and a sweater. That would probably cost me about $125. My mother-in-law said she would buy me all of that.

Do you think $189 was too much to spend on maternity clothes? I don't plan to buy anymore on my own and we are hoping to have at least 1 more child. (This is my first pregnancy)

What do you think?

that when you're pregnant everyone around you feels the need to butt in and tell you what you can and can't do, even if they have never been pregnant themselves?

My friends who have kids actually tend to leave me alone more than the ones who don't, probably because they understand how irritating it is. The WORST is when you've got somebody who has never had kids and thinks they're an expert on it because they had a "friend who was pregnant who told them everything." I just love how these types of people tell me I'm being overly paranoid because I say I won't go tanning or sit in a hot tub, but are telling me I can't eat Chinese food because it has MSG in it.

I guess I'm just venting. Anybody else have this problem? Or perhaps a solution to it that doesn't involve smacking people?
