I've been showing some signs of pregnancy and want to know what you think. My nipples have been very sore for the past 5 or 6 days. Been tired alot, and visiting the bathroom alot. Some cramping as well. I'm not supposed to start til the 18th and I was wondering, if my nipples are sore because of PMS would it have started getting sore that early before my period? Also I've never had them be sore before because of a period. And usually I will only start cramping a day or maybe two days before my period and they are really regular. So could it be pregnancy? We've been trying for over a year now and I really want to be pregnant!

I'm 13, my breasts are a bit more developed than those of most girls my age. My mom is very caring and makes me wear bras like in this site http://www.anita.com/de/en/0,1,104,1478,39236__products-detail.htm They have 4 hooks in the back, are good bras but most girls my age wouldn't like them. They make me sweat but it was mom decision, her law. I did everything I could but she didnt back off. Though this makes me mad,she's a wonderful mom, I avoided fighting to much and ended up promising I'd always wear them as I was told. I lost the battle, not even mom's friends couild convince her. And my dad told me to listen to her cause she loves me. I know, but hate those bras. Since I lost the battle, mom won't really back off, I'd like some tips on how I can get used to those bras, especially when it's hot. They make me sweat. and have 4 hooks in the back, kinda hard to put on. But it's my mom bra law.

my three-year-old loves the show charlie and lola on disney channel- and she's taken on the accent!! My husband has been calling her Madonna. Every time I tell her to stop talking like that, she looks at me like I'm weird!!! lol There's nothing wrong with having an accent, it's just SHE DOESN'T REALLY HAVE ONE and it's kind of funny for her to speak with it! I'm at my wit's end- WHAT DO I DO?

My husband and I are going to try for our first baby this month. I am hoping we conceive the first month, but I know it can take a few months. I just went off the pill, so I am nervous it may take a long time!

Did you get pregnant the first month of trying? If so did you just go off the pill?

How long did it take you to conceive?

P.S. I am in my mid 20's, healthy and my doctor said I can start trying right after stopping the pill. :)

for those that have children but arent with the mother/father. when you need the other parent to watch the child for the night or the weekend and you have a date but you dont feel comfortable telling the other parent thats what you are doing, do you have a hard time finding an excuse or do you tell them the truth? do you find it hard to tell them that you have a boyfriend or girlfriend and that you have no desire to be with them in anyway again?

My husband's dad was born with the last name "smith" but his parents soon divorced and he changed his name when he turned 18 to "Johnson" because he was raised by a man with that last name. Grandpa "Smith" was out of the pic for a while, but not by choice. He is now back and active in our lives but our name remains "Johnson." Grandpa "Johnson" was abusive and currently out of the pic. My husband and I are pregnant w/ our first and would like to give the baby the "Smith" name, but ours is still "Johnson." Eventually we want to change it, but don't have enough time before baby comes. Can we name the baby "Smith" and have our name "Johnson"?

How old is too old to be your child?? My 13 year old son is very disrespectful to me and my husband. He curses us out, spits on us and even beats us with our own personal collection of whips and chains. I have asked him very nicely on several occasions to stop disrespecting us but he refuses. Should I take a belt to his behind or just accept as a boy being a boy? Please help me I need your advice??

My husband and I decided to start trying to conceive this month, and we are so excited to possibly get pregnant.

Well, I calculated when I should be ovulating and its going to be around Thanksgiving while we are visiting my grandparents out of state. We are staying in their extra bedroom and I am embarassed to have sex in their house.

My husband said we can be really discreet and have sex on the FLOOR so the bed won't make any noise. We want to have a baby ASAP so I don't want another month, but I don't know if this is okay to do.

I don't plan to tell anyone we conceive on vacation so I don't have to explain myself! lol

What do you think? Try to conceive while visiting grandparents for 10 days, or wait another month?

Can anyone give me some advice on how to potty train my little boy please? I have read other q's on here, but I need to know the basics.
He is aware when he is going & when he needs to go (when its seconds off!). My job is flexible, but involves us travelling quite a bit, so most of the books i've read that involve staying in for the week aren't practical. The only attempt so far we've had is that we went out for a walk in the woods (trying before we left) without a nappy, He let me know that he needed to go, but as we couldn't get home in time resulted in an accident.
This didn't bother him, but now I could do with some advice (especially for preventing accidents outdoors) - I dont really relish the thought of carrying his potty with us everywhere!
Any advice is very much appriciated.
Nick (and Josh).

My son will be 18 months in a couple days and hates to eat. I know it is probably only a phase but I am still concerned. If any one has any tips please offer. Serious Only Please.

So far we have tried giving him different options each day and he picks never really eating anything. So my doctor told me give him 12 months food from the jar so he can get his proper nutrition. To do this I have to hold down his hands and fight and I feel horrible (but he does eat it). It seems the only he will eat is cherrios and those cheese fish crackers. Anything else just pokes and throws on the floor.

If anyone has experience this and have any tips I'll take them.

Thanks
