Pregnancy & Parenting - 14 November 2006

I believe that I conceived on the 28th of October. I am having a ton of prego signs. My period is not for another two weeks, how accurate would a preg test at this point? If the hormones are there enough for me to feel pregnant, shouldn't there be enough for a test?

Did you lose weight when you were pregnant because you changed your eating habits or started exercising daily?

I plan to change my diet to be very healthy and walk daily once I am pregnant, I was wondering if I should expect a weight loss.

Im 22 and married. My husband is 22.I've never had much of my own family and I REALLY feel like I am ready to have a baby. I'm not so sure about him. He just threw my birth control away, we are using other protection. He knows I want a baby and he is shady about it. He said if we get pregnant then we will deal with it. I can't help but want one badly but i want the feeling to be mutual. I've bought dogs to help my urge to have one but it's not helping. I really don't know what to do because it's driving me crazy... I WANT A BABY!

Due to a mix up and lack of communication my 10 year old son walked home from school to an empty house then went missing.

I came home from work and could not find him. I went to the school and they called the police who started a search.

My son turned up 1 hour later safe and well in a house down the street.

The Nan their had taken him in as she was worried about him and he had been playing with her grandson. ( They are friends and no each other and we are friends with the family )

She had a left a message on my answerphone but I was so distraught I didn't think to check it.

Has anyone else had a similar experience. I just want to share others thoughts as I'm in a terrible state even though he was returned home safe and well and wondering what all the fuss was about.

Serious answers only please as I have already beaten myself up more than anyone else possibly could.

hey guys i have a 20 month old daughter and she's pretty well mannered the trouble is when i take har to my friends place their kids are kind of nasty they'll pull her hair or slap her or bite her earlier i used to think she must be doing something to those kids to provoke them so i started keeping a check on her and trust me i felt really sorry for her because she usually would not even touch their toiys leave apart hitting or boting someone, whenever she sees those kids hitting their parents or screaming she is kind of surprised because she has never seen these things happening in her place, i tried telling my friends about it but they just laugh and say FORGET IT...i hate those kidss bullying my daughter i also don't understand what should i be telling her to hit them back to bite them etc etc(which i actually don't want to do). poor thing never even cries and complains she'll just sit quietly and sob today one of them really tortured her and bit her so hard that it started bleeding

I met another mom at the park and we exchanged numbers to arrange a playdate. Her son and my daughter (both 2) have met a couple of times, but they don't seem to click. He's very hyper and she's laid back and she seems frustrated and irritated by him. I don't want to hurt the mom's feelings, but I don't think it's working out. How can I gently tell her that it's not working out? What should I do if we see them at the park?

He totally matches the sign of Aries. He started crawling at 6 and a half months. He is always the center of attention. He is starting to walk and he is only 7 months old. So I am going out of my mind with him. I am a stay at homw mom. My husband is doing contract work in Iraq. So if I can find our compatability maybe it will help me to entertain him better or just keep him happy. Nothing seems to keep his attention more than 5 minutes. So help.

The situation worsened today and my aunt and i got into another argument, which i beleive will lead to the house being sold and my aunt and cousins moving to their own spot. (my husband and i would just leave but we are still a little BROKE and this baby's not going to help). I am very worried about the possiblity of a miscarriage. I am going to be seeing the doctor on Thursday.. btu i want to know if i should be worried if during both of these areguments I had a "gush" of discharge while being yelled at by my aunt... and I experienced some kind of sharp pain directly after, when i began to calm down again. Also, if i do have a miscarriage... what do you think is the chance it could have been caused mostly by this situation?

I was wondering. I don't have children yet, but hopefully soon. I plan on breast feeding my children.. but sometimes I probably will want a break. like let my husband get up in the middle of the night and what not. so I was thinking of pumping breast milk for those ocassions.. however i would want to pump enough for a while. So ehre is my question.

1. can you freeze breast milk?
2. If so, for how long?
3. How long is it good for in the regular fridge?
4. do you warm it up like normal, in the microwave or on the stove?

When it comes to a c-section shouldn't I have a choice? I'm 12 weeks so I have a ways to go, but at my appt. this morning my doctor said I'd have one like I didn't have any other alternative. I had an emergency c-section with my middle daughter and a perfectly normal delivery with my last one, why all of a sudden a mandantory c-section? Do I have the option of saying I don't want one?

I am pregnant and would never imagine drinking during pregnancy. However, I went to see a show the other day and witnessed a pregnant woman take a shot of whiskey. So it got me pissed off and now I am wondering if the bartender could of told her no.
