Pregnancy & Parenting - 15 November 2006

I've been training my daughter for a while now and over the past few days I havent left the house so i can concentrate on training her. So for the past 2 days she has been going to th potty or asking to go to the toilet without ANY accident **huge smile**

Anyway my mother (7kids of her own) and my aunt (2kids) have said that they think it would be best putting her to bed in pants instead of a nappy as it will only confuse her, and dont giver her anything to drink at night. BUT my mother-in-law (2kids) thinks shes too young to be going to bed without a nappy...


HELP... need more opinions

many thanks XX


Ps.. My daughter will be 2 in March

Between anxiety/nervousness & stomach aches.
My daughter who is almost 8 is already experencing anxiety and gets stomach aches frequestly. After a few calls from school i made her a Dr. appt about it. I also deal with anxiety and nervousness....just naturally that way. But, the doctor said that there is nothing wrong if there isnt something to go with the stomach ache...ex...throwing up, diahera, fever there is not big problem. My daughter does VERY well in school...she is being tested for the county's gifted children program right now and is in the 2nd grade and can read at a middle school level. She's got a younger brother, and a step sister. She has absolutely NOTHING to worry about. All of our kids are so spoiled and get every and anything they want including attention from me. We spend tons of family time together because i am self employed and can do that. I go eat lunch with them at school and everything.
What can i do to help her? She gets it from me i guess.

I had my last depo June 13, 2006. So in other words I was due for one Sept. 13 and I didn't get it. I was on it for almost 5 years and now I have been having symptoms of pregnancy. Never felt like this before except when I was pregnant. Symptoms....sleepiness, tender breats, back pains, headaches(never get them), stomach pains, heavy discharge. I took a test yesterday and it came back negative but according to a website if I would be pregnant it wouldn't show up til Friday or so. Has anyone else ever experieced this? Please help.

My 8-mo old son had a temperature this morning and I gave him Tylenol before I dropped him at daycare. They do not administer medicine at the facility so when it wears off in 4 or 6 hours he may need another dose. I did not do it, but I was thinking on my way to work, if I added the dosage to a bottle would that do the trick? Hmmm...

I never meant to intend that I would kill the baby or even give it up I was just looking for some sort of support for going through this while suffering the loss of my father. I love my children more than anything I just needed help with dealing with my loss. I guess I am too new at this site to know how to word things. My apoligies. I know god will help me through this I just really dont feel strong enough to do it.

my son is 10. he is very unorganized. i help him out as much i as i can but he seems to be losing homework and not finishing in class assignments. we had parent teacher conferneces last week and found out that in 2 classes he had incomplete assignments. the teacher gave us until the end of the week to make things up. we made sure we did. even tho he is very smart gets great grades on tests and teachers enjoy him, his unorganizational habits have brought his grades down to below an 80 in 2 classes. he turned in stuff for one class, but didnt for the other. he said he "forgot". other than holding his hand at school what can i do? my hubby decided he needed to be spanked i was not at home at the time that the report card came home with all this info. i would have taken his electronics away. my hubby said he did that too.

what should have been done? and what can i do about my son?

How long does it usually take for the birth control pill to be out of your system? How long did it take you all? I've heard sometimes it can take 3 months. Is that true????

One of my good friends swears she is pregnant. She sayst that she would be around 3 weeks....meaning she has not yet missed her period. She told me this morning that she has not yet felt morning sickness, breast tenderness (she says she never feels breast tesnderness around the time of her period) or any other symptoms of ealry pregnancy. I told her to wait it out, cause I have read that breast tenderness always happens in early pregnancy and that early pregnancy symptoms could also be early PMS symptoms. Is this true or am I wrong? I don't want to seem unsympathetic to what she feels but if she has no morning sickness, no breast tenderness and she is already 3 weeks....is she eally pregnant? what do i tell her the next time she calls? thanks for all your help in advance.

What would you do if your child had to pee and did not tell you untill the last possible minute and you had to rush them to the bathroom and they wet them selves?

Has this ever happened if yes please tell your story. How old was your child? How old are they now?

After this episode the patient can relate to you the sounds she made, songs etc. Does this happen or could my elderly mother be doing this for sympathy. She has a long history of hypochondriac behavior.

I'm a 14 years Indonesian old junior high student, that means I must wake up early in the morning exactly at 5:30 am, get prepared for school and catch the bus at quarter past six. Well, if you're from Europe or USA, you'll probably be surprised at the time i woke up because schools in Indonesia starts early, usually 7 am. When I woke up, i felt tired and unpassionate to go to school. I need some advice to woke up early without feeling tired.

My babysitter loves my 7 month old. She takes great care of him. It's hard to find that now a days. She watches my best friends son also. Those are the only two she keeps. She gets paid 60.00 a week which is great for us. My son is a very good baby. He hardly cries ever unless hes teething. He occupies himself and goes to sleep with out a bottle or anything. Now that he is going there she started rocking him to sleep, holding him the whole time hes there. (she told me all of this). Now I see a change in him. He has to be rocked to sleep and wants to be held a lot more. I brought this to her attention and she shrugged it off. She is still doing all of that. Well for the last 4 days my sister-in-law has watched him. She has taught him to say momma, feed himself, and shes breaking the cycle of wanting to be held 24/7. What do I do when I take him back to the babysitters? How can I tell my babysitter to stop spoiling him when she don't listen? I do not want my son spoiled. Any ideas?

She has a past history of anorexia and is not allowed to see her weight while pregnant.
Unfortunately a fill-in nurse told her her weight and she broke down crying.
Now the dr.'s agreed to induce her at 36 weeks so she doesnt stop eating in an effort to not gain more weight.
I am 33 weeks pregnant myself and dont know what to say to her-
personally I dont understand and I feel that the dr. and her are being ignorant???
Isnt it a little selfish to harm the unborn baby in a fear of getting fat?
AM i being mean?
I cant help but feel a little disgusted at the situation-
