Pregnancy & Parenting - 17 November 2006

I feel so yucky. I have been lightheaded and stuff so it's hard for me to take a shower. I don't feel like cleaning or anything and it makes me feel so lazy. My sex life is suffering too. I know this is all common during pregnancy and I know or think my hubby understands but I feel so bad that I can't be a better wife. You have any thoughts on this?

Nothing mean please...

Does anyone else understand what I am talking about? I feel like we do the same things over and over. Does anyone have any suggestions about some different activities or how to get over this worry? Thanks!

I'm not due for another period until the 27th. I've had mild headaches and little spotting a week after my "period" in the beginning of the month, and now nothing..other than the nausea for a week. I haven't gotten sick yet, I would if I'd allow it, but that's not a feeling I want to have!! It's all day and I've taken medicine for it, but it hasn't helped. It's way too early to test for pregnancy. Has anyone experienced anything similar? What was the outcome?

My ten year old son just got home from school and has a $100 bill in his hand. He said his friend was handing out 20's, 50's and 100's to a few people (the bills are real). He said he made the money doing yardwork. The school is having everyone return the money to them. Having just spoken with the school secretary regarding this issue, I learned that the kid giving out money had well over a couple thousand on him!

We don't lilve in a high crime area. Our streets are safe and the child who brought the money is not one to get in trouble. The average home in my neghborhood goes for around $200k. We're a suburb of Chicago, not a rich neighborhood! Where would he get this money??

I'm so curious as to what's going on, but I'm afraid we'll probably never find out.

Anyone got any ideas?

My daughter has always been very independent child. About a week ago she started freaking out everytime I left a room. She follows me constantly, cries if she can't get to me, and has started climbing into my bed at night. She says it's because she can't feel me at night. I've tried talking with her and assuring her I'm not leaving, having her express her feelings as best she can, and validating how she feels, but this is starting to become a problem. I can't leave the house without a major fuss! It's heartbreaking but I also can't give in to her. Any ideas?

I recently got off the pill (a little over a month ago). My partner and I had sex around my ovulation time but we had protected sex. However, during our session, we realized the condom broke. Lately, he has been sick then i got sick off and on which is rare, but I didn't think much of it. He sleeps just about all day and I tend to find myself falling asleep at work. I've had cramps off and on and my period is a day or 2 late. His mom has had dreams of fish (superstition that someone is or about to become pregnant). Please help. It may be that I'm just paranoid. Thanks.

She acts like the cold doesn't even bother her even when it is 40 degrees out. And then she gets sick. I have even tried duct-taping and safety penning her clothes on her but she is too smart!! She knows how to get it off anyway! HELP PLEASE!

My son is 18 months old and bites his sister who is 4 constantly and with no provication. He bites her so hard he leaves his teeth marks! I have tried everything I can think of to get him to stop. I've tried time-outs, telling him no, and when that doesn't work spanking him and gently biting him. None of these things have gotten him to stop and I don't know what to do now! Help!!

If you have, have any of you had luck with it, and how long did it take you to become pregnant after you began taking it?

I'm 37 weeks pregnant with my first baby and live in Wales UK.

I often feel surprised when I watch American TV programmes on childbirth at how different things are over there.

Here in the UK all babies are delivered by midwives (obstetricians only attend high risk deliveries), midwives also provide all your ante natal care unless you have problems which make your pregnancy high risk.

Women are often encouraged to have water births, use milder painkillers like Gas and Air etc. C sections and epidurals tend to be reserved more for problems and prolonged labours etc.

In America it seems everyone automatically has an epidural, a drip in their arm, a bed-bound delivery and "vaginal birth" is considered something that you're lucky to achieve! And all babies seem to be delivered by doctors in a highly medicalised enviroment.

Is it really like this or is this just how the TV shows portray it?

BTW I have to say your hospitals are much nicer than ours!!
