She has just turned 10 and I know I need to have that talk with her. I need to know the best way to approach it without freaking her out.
Only serious answers, please.

My husband and I use the withdrawl method and it has worked for ten years the only time it didn't is when we tried for kids and I have three. (and I know we shouldn't but he knows best he says.) Any way I am seven days late and my periods come about every 30 days. I am very tired and my lower stomach hurts to the touch. I know I should take a test but it never works until I am 2months pregnant. And a month and a half for a blood test. So I just want to know what you think thats all. Thanks

Hi girls. I will wait till my period to find out everything, yet, I wanted to ask you one question. About 6 days after my ovulation (if to believe the test), that is 7 days after our making love, in the evening for about 5-7 minutes I felt quite a sharp cramps in my lower abdomen. The cramps resembled those that happen on the first day of the period. Could it be implantation? I don't know if women can feel sometimes implantation besides spotting (I didn't spot)? I know that time I was far from ovulation so it wasn't that crapming. I will appreciate your answers (but please no comment about using pregnancy test-- I will use a bit later).

Almost everyone else comes out with regular names, but the stars get goofy (the kid named Apple comes to mind). Regular folks get goofy too. Any examples of horrible kid names?

While I was pregnant, I got horrible pinkish purple stretch marks vertically ALL over my stomach. I had the baby 7 weeks ago, and they are still there along with my sagging belly fat. Has this happened to anyone who has been pregnant? What should I do?

If you get pregnant while on metaformin (for ttc w/pcos), do you continue to take it throughout your pregnancy or do you stop once you get pregnant. (I forgot to ask my doctor, and I am not pregnant, yet.....)

Well she is one of 3 children in the household. She is the oldest. The others are 2 and 1. It normally starts out right after lunch. We (my husband and I) decided that it would be best if they took a nap until the time that they were 5. Or could do what was asked of them without complaining. Well it seems as if everyday she argues over nap time and bed time as well. We have tried giving her play time instead of nap time..but then by about 5 pm she is the grouchest kid i've ever seen. But it takes 2 hrs to get her to lay down for a nap. I just need some advice I've reached the end of my rope and I don't know what to do? I don't think spanking your children is any way to solve problems. so please don't respond with answers like that.

My son is 5 1/2 months old. We've been giving him a little rice mixed with formula, but truth-be-told I haven't been too dilligent about it. It makes him constipated, so I'm not loving this, but he should probably be off formula before he becomes a teenager (lol), so... Is oatmeal less binding? When do I start other baby food, and in what order/how much/for how long. i.e. vegetables for a couple weeks then fruit? I appreciate the advice.

I just got this book called, "What to expect when you are expecting." Anyways, in the book it says this: this first month is approx. 1 to 4 weeks (i understand that) , the 2nd month is 5 to 8 weeks, the 3rd month is approx. 9 to 13 weeks, and the 4th month is 14 to 17 weeks. So I am currently 13wks does this mean next week i'll be in my 4th month?? I always thought once you turned 12 weeks you were just entering your 3rd month. Please help I am so confused!!!! Thanks.

My 7 year old child told me yesterday to turn the song on the radio because it made his penis hard and it made it vibrate. I didn't know what to say so I kinda changed the subject. Then he told me that when he sits next to his "girlfriend" at lunch it happends then too. Is this normal???
