My breasts have been sore for 5 days now and I'm not near enough to my expected period for it to be PMS. I take birth control but I think I may be pregnant. Should I go off the pill or wait until my missed period?

Ok I'm 14 years old and I was wondering why like all teenagers are soo against abortion. I am pro-choice. All my friends are like "If any one i know got an abortion I would never talk to them again" Thats soo stupid, abortion isnt "killing" like I know if I got pregnant right now I would take my *** to the nearest abortion clinic. Do you know how many kids out there are orphaned and alone. Why would someone want to bring any more unwanted kids into the orld? So do you agree with abortion? No I'm not pregnant, I'm just asking. Ad girls what would you do if you found out you where pregnant?

I would feel like I'd want him up at the top, not seeing whats happening down there.

Saturday we got a new puppy. Today, 3 days later, she woke up w/ red bumps on her face, red hands, feet, & legs; none on her stomach or chest and only a little bit on her lower back. She stayed at my mom's house today, who also has a dog, took some benadryl, and was fine. Tonight, at our house, she has broke out again. So... is she allergic to dogs? Or maybe just our dog? Is it possible to grow out of? What else could it be? I've haven't changed anything else.

hello,
i have an 11 month old son who has always been a good baby but recently he's not sleeping much at all, which i think might have something to do with teething he's getting his 5th tooth! anyway he's just started getting into everything and is getting around on his own which means i am constantly chasing him all over the place.
i am due in 5 days with another baby and although i have help from my fiance when he's not working im still finding it kind of hard and worried im not going to cope with 2 babies.
this pregnancy wasn't planned but very wanted and i'm planning on going on the pill afterwards, but was wondering if any parents out there might have had the same experience as i'm having and if u have any advice? will it get easier....
i love being a mother and look forward to raising my 2 boys, but my fiance is worried i'm not coping because i'm constantly being brought to tears when i feel i'm not doing anything right with my son. i can't stand seeing him cry!

Once my son grew too big for infant/newborn-type sleepers, I encountered a pajama nightmare. Every single pair of pajamas I find is seemingly made to fit like a second skin. The problem? My son cannot stand them. The minute I put them on, he pulls and pulls at the sleeves and the legs in such a way that it's obvious the tightness is uncomfortable for him. I do NOT understand the idiotic reasoning for the way these pajamas are made. Supposedly "snug fitting clothing is less likely to catch fire." (At least, that is explanation The Children's Place gives.) Well, I'm sorry. To me, there is a difference between "snug" fitting and so tight you feel like you're being eaten alive by a boa constrictor. Are there ANY pj's out there for toddlers (he wears 18-24 mo clothing) that are not made this way? If so, please, please tell me where I can buy them. I would be happy to order them online, if need be. They don't have to be loose, just loose enough that he can breathe.

My baby's umbilical cord fell off today, he has a very small hernia which I read that if it is small it will go away in a few days. Its also still kinda gooey and a little bloody, is this normal, I read it is for the next couple of weeks, but I would like to hear it from someone who knows. Also I have just been giving him a sponge bath, can I give him a normal bath now, and can I put the diaper on normal now (where it covers his belly button)?

My cousin wants to have a baby but her man doesnt want to have one right now so when they had sex, her man came in the condom and when they were done she saved the condom to insert the sperm into herself. Does that really work?

Its a strange,annoying phenonemon. Any arguement with a teen can end with them nicking off to their room and leaving a hole in the wall. It doesnt take much strength to do it, so i dont see how it can relieve much frustration. Why do that?

Not a technical book about parts. Looking for a book about privacy, but not any of the books about strangers, safety, abuse...etc. My daughter is 4 and I have two younger boys...just want her to be more modest. She is good about closing the door when going to the bathroom. But occasionally when I am changing a diaper or something, she might strip down...willy nilly. In fact, at her 4th bday party, she got an outfit she liked and decided to change in front of everyone.

Ok.. I have been TTC for a few months now, and every month I get my period :( This month.. its different though. My ovulation date was Oct. 30th and we did have sex on that day, and every other day before and after that since my period has ended. My boobs are really sore and my nipples seem a lot bigger. I have been really hot lately, especially in the morning. I have been dizzy and pretty hungry lately. Extremely tired.. it grows day by day. I know that its too soon to take a test, since I'm not due for my period for another week and a half to two weeks from now. But from what I have told you, based on my symptoms and stuff.. do you think I could be pregnant?
