Hi,

I am nearly 6 weeks pregnant & i found out for the first time today that i have a 'mild' Prolapsed Uterus.

Most of the information i've found on this is about the condition after pregnancy,not during.

If anyone has experiance of this i would really appreciate finding out how it affected their pregnancy.?What if any extra care needed?etc

My Dr couldn't even tell me if it means i'll have to have a caesarean,i will have to wait until Monday when i can speak to a Midwife.

So my blood tests came back from my glucose test, which was all fine, bute they are saying I am borderline anemic?..
Before you all go crazy, I do have a follow up with my doctor, I work in a medical facility for radiology, so our nurse just got the blood results for me to check them out that's all. She says Im border line anemic...I will get the explanation at my appointment, Im just asking you all in advance for thoughts before I get there.

I have take 2 home pregnancy tests yesterday, both positive. Then went to the dr and the test came up negative. Was confused and bought another home pregnancy test (different brand) and both of those came up positive. What would make the dr one come up negative. I did do the blood test but will not have the results until Monday the earliest because of the holidays. What do you think pregnant? or not?

I had a 4th degree episiotomy with my 1st child. (that means I actually tore into my rectum!) I didn't suffer any long term complications and I felt ok after a day or 2. So to me it was no big deal. Well today I went to the doctor ( a different one that delivered my first) and he told me I was a candidate for an elective C section if I choose it. Because of possible complications if I tear again. I just want to know what other people think about this. I am leaning toward taking my chances and delivering vaginally.

If something were to happen to me, I would want my kids to go to my parents, not their fathers. Is that something I would have to go through a lawyer to do? Like a will?

The fathers dont have any kind of custody or visitation rights right now.

Looking for some ideas for my 3 year old boy. He has a room full of toys - but would rather play using his imagination. He pretends EVERYTHING. Any ideas on toys that can expand his already large imagination??

My 4 year old dug out his full Tigger costume from last halloween and has been wearing it everywhere. He only takes it off to have a bath and sleep and even that is a struggle. Todays the second day of wearing it...daycare, pre-school and when we've gone out. Should I take it away while he's sleeping tonight? And why is he doing this?

I want my little girl to represent where she came from, and I feel like an honorable tribute to my beautiful daughter would be to name her Welfare (bc we're ghetto and live off of welfare) or Cracky (after me at one time being a crack-whore). What do you think? I love these two names...they instill so much respect in my soul.

My 16 month old just started walking a month ago, and she seems to always trip over things and bonk her head on something. As soon as one bruise on her forhead goes away, she gets another one.

Did that happen to your toddler?
And does it seem to happen more right before you've scheduled a photo session?

Nearly 38 weeks pregnant.

Last night couldn't sleep so came downstairs and whilst sitting on the sofa I had a trickle then a small gush of water (about a teacup full) from down below.

There was no pain or further fluid loss.

I went to the hospital to be checked this morning and midwife said that there were no waters leaking, my cervix was completely closed, baby's head not engaged (last midwife I saw said it was 3/5 engaged) and I had either imagined it or I had "wet myself" (I know I hadn't wet myself! I had just been for a wee a few minutes before this happened!)

I feel like I'm doubting my own sanity here!

Don't know what to do! No pains or contractions yet. Baby not moving much. Should I go back to the hospital or leave it another couple of days?

My daughter (3yrs) goes to Head Start which is Federally funded.
The school bus has broken down so many times this year and she (along with many other kids) have had to miss school because of it. This week alone she missed 3 days and the next 2 are holiday. That makes a week of school just this week alone.
The school said even if they were given a new bus they couldn't accept it because of their funding. Who should I write to? Would a petition work in this case? Does anyone have any info that would help me get something in motion to help our kids? Thanks for any help.

No mom is perfect. Most moms feel like they are lacking in one area of motherhood.

Me, personally, I feel like I don't have enough one on one time (playing) with my oldest daughter.
