I've read so many conflicting things about this. Has anyone had any experience using one later in the day? Any one that can help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Ok, do you ovulate before or after your period? Just curious... my husband and I are trying to get preggo and might be now but I was just wondering when to start (AND WE WANT OUR GIRL, so if you have and "suggestions" or "positions", let me know, anything will work, even if its just for fun!) THANKS!!

My cousin gave birth in the taxi on way to hospital, the taxi driver luckily was an ex paramedic so he could help as she was on her own.

My daughter (18 m/o) has diaper rash ever so often she is always changed often and is allowed to run around without a diaper sometimes, but she still gets them every once in a while. When she does have them it just breaks my heart to see her in pain. I went out a bought the Huggies sensitive wipes I hope those will be gentle. I havent switched diaper brands or soap so I am not sure what causes it. What cream have you found to work the best for your child? I have the DR Smiths and it seems to work well, but am almost out and may try something different. Thanks for all your help!

My one month old daughter can flip herself over onto her stomach. I just purchased the movement sensor for her crib that sounds an alarm if the baby stops breathing for 20 seconds...do you think its safe for me to allow her to sleep on her tummy with the monitor on?

I'm a mother of two daughters and would love to have a son next. What kind of diet should be taken specifically. Is that the time of ovulation always works to concieve a boy?

She recently lost her mother and she cries and moans while she's sleeping. The only way she calms down is if i hold her. She is only 2 years old so it is hard to communicate with her and find out what she's seeing in her dreams. Any suggestions?

There seems to be such an overwhelming number of parents here who vaccinate their helpless children under the mistaken assumption that they will be immunized.
Anyone else here dissagree with this goverment-population-control hoax?

I'm 23yrs old and I'm 12 weeks pregnant. My boyfriend has decided that his life is changing directions and he's moving to another state. I'm so scared, and all I do is cry all day. He's given me until January to find a new place to live. Has anyone else been in this situation? Where do you find the strength to face the day?

What was the worst punishment you ever received. The worst I ever got was when I was10(now 13). My twin brother and I skipped school and went to see a movie, it was rated "R". Well, guess who was shopping at the mall? Our mom. She saw us and brought us home. This is was she did. She pulled both of our pants down. We now had bare butts. She took a belt and slapped our bare butts for an hour. Then she made up an enema. Our mom used to keep these handy for our family in case of constipation. She made us get up on the table and lay on our stomaches. Then she put them on high speed. It was also not the warmest soap water. We had to stay on our stomaches during the whole thing. We each received two quarts. Then she made us hold it for 30 minutes. During tha thirty minutes this is what she made us do. She made us jump for 10 minutes. She made us run for 10 minutes. And she made us sit with of stomaches laying on our legs for 10 minutes. This was my worst punishment ever. We will never forget.

Heres the thing...I stopped taking the pill 3 months ago had 2 normal periods last one was 15th October and then next was due 12th November it never arrived, my bf and i have been having unprotected sex all month and if we conceived would've done so around the 27-29th Oct. I still have had no period i am now 2 weeks late and pregnancy tests say negative. Felt and was sick for a week the day my period was due and have had some different food cravings,going to loo more, sensitive nipples but nothing else. Was pregnant once before when i was 16 and didnt know for two months until i had really sore breasts i suspected a little earlier but pregnancy test didnt show till 7 weeks or so, most people saying sore breasts happen bout 6 weeks in, so am wondering if i will have them in the next week. It is stressing me out so bad not knowing just wondering if anyone else has a similar experience or can offer an opinion for what they think, I know i must wait and take another test in a few days. x

Give me you honest opinion on these names.

GIRL- Annaliese Marie "Elise"
I am German, and I've always wanted my daughter to have a German name, so I found the one I like out of lots I didn't like -Annaliese!!!! Marie, for the middle name is a 5 generation name, so I know this name will stay. I know the name throws you off at first, but that's not what she will be called....she will be called "Elise". Short and Simple. Of, course there probably won't be 5 Annaliese's and Elise's in her class, so that's good.
BOY- Jackson Carter "Jack"
This name goes back. I had a fedish w/ the naming ordeal when I was younger, and my mom was always suspicious of why I loved names and so I would ask her if she liked all these names. And she fell in love w/ Jack. I fell in love w/ it too! It's a simple name with a strong feel....and ever since we made a promise that if
If I had a boy, I would name him Jack. So, my husband decided on Carter. So Jack Carter was to short, so we made Jackson Carter.
