me an my fiancee have sex without condoms. she uses the nuvaring. i still want to take extra steps to keep from getting her pregnant. i have been researching spermicides. I know about all the different types. I just want to hear from any guy or couples who have used it.
1.Was it effective?
2.Did it irritate you?
3.What kind of spermicide did you use and what brand?
Thanks.

I love the name Skyler Nichole if I have a girl. Should I spell it Skylar or Skyler? For some reason I think Skylar looks more masculine? What do you think?

My first grader, he is a six and a half year old boy, was doing great in school. As a matter of fact, recently when I went with him to a field trip like in Sept. or Oct. I asked the teacher how he was doing, if he was talking a lot in class or not. The teacher said he was doing fine.Yesterday my son brought home a note saying that my son has become more talkative lately.I went to go talk to the teacher and he says that yesterday he decided to go ahead and send me that note because my son was not focusing and doing what he wanted to do whenever he would give his back to him.He said that they were in the restroom and that my son was doing what he wanted to do, not paying attention.He said that he sat the classroom down and told the kids to start an assignment on Thanksgiving, he says that my son just went "blank" and was messing around his desk not doing his job.I told him that I had had a talk with him last night and told him that if he say him talking too much with one particular...

My friend thinks she is pregnant, these are her “symptoms”:
Fuller breast that DON’T hurt
Peeing more often than usual
She says now she has been feeling this weird bubbling in her very low belly near her pubic bone and sometimes on her side area, she has been feeling it for about two weeks straight.

Why she may not be pregnant:
She has been on birth control for a year and still has a period when she finishes a pack.
She has taken a test every 2 weeks or so for the past 3 months and all of them are negative.
She stopped birth control this month and took another test, it was negative.
No noticeable weight gain and her stomach doesn’t look pregnant or hard.

But she still thinks she is pregnant even without any symptoms. If it really was a baby moving shouldn't hurt stomach be a bump at least? She went to the doctor and he didn't even bother giving her a test because she never missed any birth control pills.

Could she be pregnant or is she just really wanting a baby?

My son is 4 weeks old today and he has a rectal temp. of 100.2 He is eating normally. The only thing is that he wants me to hold him all the time he won't let me put him down. So should I be concerned about this temp. or wait to see if it goes to 100.4?

I am a stay at home dad I neither I nor my wife have ever spanked our kids. (We discipline them in our own way but not through violence). The other day I asked my 13yr old son to watch his younger brother for ten minutes while I was in the yard. When I went inside I caught him with brandon(5yr old) over his knee and spanking him.
I was really shocked so I just yelled at him and sent him to bed but I feel that was not enough. What should I do?

her doctor wont put her on meds until she is 6. the bus drievers complain dailey that she wont sit down. the teachers sent notes home about her coloring on tables and ripping apart books. she is really bad at home too, smarts off alot and for only being 5 she sure knows how to say something to really piss you off. Ive took away t.v., grounded , and took the fun stuff away as well. she forgets all the time about general everyday rules like dont play on the steps and she just says"oopps sorry" and keeps on doing it until I yell. I am so tired and need another method to help me until she gets help from the dr. any suggestions?

My 9 month old is projectile vomiting ( not spitting up.. I do know the difference) at least 4 times a day and has been for about 5 days now. He is running a low grade fever that goes down right away with tylenol. He vomits randomly and every time he eats and has a bottle. I took him to the dr. Yesterday and they said that they couldn't find anything wrong, and its probably a virus. She told me to give him pedialite (which he keeps vomiting up) and that if his temp gets higer than 102 and he vomits more then 4 times that he needs to be seen. I don't know what to do! He has vomited 4 times already today and is very fussy and i think he is starting to get dehydrated, how can I help him?

My son is 2 1/2. I can not bring him out ANYWHERE or sign him up for preschool. I know what most of you are thinking...stop cursing around your kid, what kind of parent are you. But we DON'T. I am sure every once in a while he has heard something our of our mouths, but it is VERY rare. But says every curse. SOB, F***, G** D*** it, Shut your mouth. He even tells us we will go in time out. And he knows how to use every work correctly. How do I stop this. We have tried ignoring it completely, time outs, taking away toys and giving him different words to use likle Phooey, Silly etc. Am I doomed to have a rude horrible child???
