Pregnancy & Parenting - 20 November 2006

Its my first baby and I really don't want to go overdue, especially as it will mean Christmas in hospital!

I've had no labour signs or symptoms at all. A few Braxton Hicks. Baby was 3/5 engaged last Weds but apart from that nothing!

If I was going to be on time or early do you think I would have started having cramps/a show/waters leaking or any other symptoms?

( I haven't had anything at all and it really feels like baby will want to stay there for another month. I'm so tired and fed up I don't think I could handle it, but I've been told I won't be induced until I go 2 weeks over.)

Please only answe if you are familiar with PCOS.
I have PCOS, and am having a very hard time getting pregnant. I read that adding soy to your everyday food intake will help produce estrogen. Is that true? And also, will the added estrogen help me produce everything else that I need to inorder to hopefully become pregnant? PLEASE HELP!!!!!

What is the best thing that you have found to put on a child's nose if it is sore due to a cold? I hate seeing him walk around with a yukky nose, but everytime I wipe his nose he just cries and cries and says it hurts. (He is 3) I am using a wet baby washcloth so that it will not hurt so much, but doesn't seem to help a whole lot!

He is 8, is this normal? Also, what can I, or his teachers, do to help him remember his things without constantly harping at him?

I had my first son last year and with him I put on about 45 pounds, which the doctor was not happy about. Since I have had him I had lost alot of the baby weight but not all of it, so im still a little over weight. I dont want to blow up this time around like I did the first time, and I know the doctors say the bigger you are when you start our your pregnancy the less weight you really need to gain! Now im not huge now, but I just want to know good diets, and exercise routines for me to do to keep my weight gain to as little as possible!

I have been trying to get pregnant for a year. 6 months ago I was pregnant, but lost the baby when I was 11 weeks pregnant. I have been trying again for the past 2 cycles. I am really hoping to get pregnant this cycle, but don't know if I will or if I will be able to carry a full term pregnancy since I had a miscarriage. I need to order the dress before I would find out if I am pregnant this cycle. The bride knows all of these details and told me to figure out the dress part.

In the city that I live in if your child acts out of line in school or out in the streets the police and immediately called in and the child receives an on the spot beating. I have seen on more than one occasion children being beaten bloody and bruised for stealing, lying and doing other unruly things. Many parents have complained and even tried to sue the police department but all the city says is this is our rule and if you don't like it move. Should the police be allowed to beat your child senseless??

Thats my name (my mother and father read The Lord of the Rings and loved that name and named me it) and I was thinking of maybe naming one of my kids that someday. And do you like the name Meriadoc (but I'll call him Merry)?

Ok, first.....I'm married, I'm 28. We have a 4 1/2 year old little boy, and a 2 1/2 year old girl. I'm currently pregnant with our third (also planned) and last. I have an appointment for an ultrasound next week to check my due date/date of conception, but lets see what you think.

LMP was August 11th
*negative* pregnancy test on September 26th
*positive* pregnancy test on October 19th

When do you think I conceived?

I live in Elbridge NY which is a little village. Very small and friendly. It's not a wealthy area. I have just started to watch the boys today. The mother is a single mom and I know how that is trying to support your kids, I have been there myself. I have know idea what I should charge. I don't want to under charge but don't want to do it for free either. I thought about $2.00 an hour for the first child and $1.00 for every child after that. That would be $3.00 an hour. Would that be to little or to much? Anyone opinion would help me out alot. I am not doing it to get rich or anything, I just wanted to have a little extra cash in my pocket.
