....to get back into your pre-pregnancy clothes and how did you do it? My first two, I was back down to my "original" size within a year without much effort, watching what I ate and just regular everyday activity. I just had a baby five months ago and at this point I am just not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I am a SAHM now, where as I went back to work after the other two. I still watch what I eat and have taken up walking five nights a week (if it isn't to cold out) but the weight just won't go away. I know it will take time but anybody else been in the same boat, have a story they would like to share or give some great advice I am all ears. I just need a little encouragemnet at this point I am getting frustrated with myself.

My brother in law and his wife have two dogs. When we were staying with them my little boy was 2 years old and always wanted to play with the dogs. But the dogs are not used to children being around do anything he would try doing with them the dogs did not like it. One day my son went over to the dog and tried petting him. The dog bit his face, but only scratched him. I had a huge argument with my brother in law he was telling me that if I didn't like it to keep my son away from the dogs. I said to keep the dogs somewhere my son couldn't touch them. It's kind of hard to watch your child all the time. What do you think should they of kept the dog away from my son or me kept my son away from the dogs.

I mean in any sense, such as a strong spiritual or religious belief that makes you want a child, apart from other reasons?

My son nurses. My mother-in-law lives 2 hrs away. She claims I am "keeping" him away from her and using nursing as an excuse. However, my son doesn't stay overnight with my mother either. He wakes to nurse sometimes 4 times a night. If either party babysits for part of the evening, I am in pain from engorgement. How can I make her understand it is not personal? Leaving him for days at a time (1 night isn't good enough, she insists on a week) is not good for my milk production and my son wouldn't understand. Studies also show forced weaning is not good for the baby. What is a good way to deal with this?

I've been on depo for 2 years. Normally I get the shot the first day I'm supposed to but this month I had till the 8th to get it and I got it on the 7th. last month I was on antibiotics, dont remember if my bf and I had sex or not. well a week after getting this shot I started feeling sick, havent thrown up though. My breast are getting bigger, swollen and very sore and tender. You can feel the glands inside swollen as well. i actually saw a lil bit of liquid coming out of one, just a drop, but still. I took a pregnancy test and it came back neg. Could I still be pregnant though? does the depo effect the result of the test?

My wife's family is giving her a hard time about her decision to breastfeed our baby. They have gone as far as telling her that she isn't welcome in their homes if she is going to breastfeed there. When we told her neice (30-something year old with three kids) that it's natural, she said "We'll how about I just go take a dump in your yard...that's natural too."
The best rebuttal I've come up with so far is: "If breastfeeding in public makes people uneasy because the breasts are considered sexual, then bottle-feeding must be the equivalent of whipping out a dildo."
Do you have anything else that we might be able to use to get her family to understand it's not wrong to breastfeed?

My 12 month old is vaccinated up to 6 months. I've been doing a lot of research and when I think I finally have my mind made up, I find another website that sends me in the other direction. I am scared TO vaccinate but I'm scared NOT to vaccinate. My husband doesn't do any research, he just says we should do the same as we did withour 1st son. I'm really not sure what to do. Help please.

Im 6 days past ovulation. Ive been having a few things going on that have got me thinking.
1. Itchy Nipples.
2. Tired (I was in bed by 830 last nite which is odd for me)
3. I woke up in the middle of the night STARVING. (something else odd for me)
4. Watery Discharage (so much it feels like Ive started..sorry tmi lol)
5. Increases sense of smell.
6. Lower back ache.

Is it too early to have symptoms? Im not due for my period for another 8 or so days.

And Please dont say "Take a test and see" Bc thats obvious. Im just trying to get some feedback here. Ill probably take a test in a week or so..Just wanted to see if Id be wasting my money.

I started my period two days early and at first it was light, then got heavy, then lightened up then stopped and then it was light with spotting. I have been neauseous after everything I eat, and have been craving things. I have taken two pregnancy tests but both were negative and this last one it said a neg result will dissappear in 10min and a pos reasult will last 48 hours, my result is still on the stick. I tried to use an ovulation test to help me but the day I was supposed to ovulate nothing appeared on the screen.
