Im concerned Im only on my first month & dont know if sex is safe for me. Just wondering why I had worst case of nausea, fatigue etc a few days ago and today I feel fine. Could it be because of intercourse? Is there something wrong?

My son is 8 years old, and I want to set up a reward system for him to encourage good behavior. Its getting to the point where taking priveledges away does not have a lasting effect on him. He loves to play playstation, computer games, and watch TV (which are the things id like him to earn). Every time I try to set this up and make a list, I get confused! I was thinking a point system, each point is worth 10 min of "free time" to be split up between those three things he loves to do. This seems so complicated to be marking every minute down and what hes used it for to see how many minutes he has left! I know lots of people use this system (or the ladder) but I am unsure of how to do it. Also, if I were to use the ladder system, where does he start on day one? at the top, bottom, or middle? Same with the points... should he have some points when we start? Im afraid if he has none, he will see it as too daunting of a task and not want to complete it (hes lazy!) Thank you!

Okay here is my question how does the doctor measure you? Is it true that centimeters means how many weeks or is it something different?

We can't get her to go back to sleep. She's been up for 4 straignt hours. She doesnt cry, she is calm, but she will not sleep when you put her down. She does like to be held but doesn't sleep when held either. What could be causing this?

I am on the pill and I was wonder could I get pregnant from changing the time from 7P.M. til like 10:30P.M. around the time I normally get in the bed and yes I know I should be using protection but I feel more comfortable not using one with the same guy I've been with for quite sometime now.

I wish someone could tell me if I shouldn't be doin that but if it comes to pregnancy, yes me and my boyfriend can handle it!So dont leave no rude, smart *** comments about being careful!

My mom had a favorite and it wasn't me. Messed up my self esteem pretty bad. Now I see that most of my siblings and friends have a favorite and it makes me sick. Should I say something?

Poor babies.

Our foster child, 5 years old/kindergarten, has been having behavior issues in school since he started in September. We're well aware of these issues because when he comes we ask him what "color" he was on (The teacher pulls cards when he disobeys,Green,Yellow,Red,etc..) and he tells us.

This past week, he was been lying to us about the color he was coming home on. This is absolutely unacceptable in our house, both my husband and I were lied to, and we let him do fun things all week because we thought he was behaving. This is rather humiliating, and no five year old can get away with this in our home.


I really want to spank him, but they say we can't do that. We used to give him hot sauce for a lying tongue, but they told us we can't do that either (they being social services) I don't know what else to do. We tried taking away privileges (early bedtime, write sentences, stand in corner) that doesn't work.
