Is it just me that gets scared for my own children everytime a 12 year old posts about being pregnant? What is our generation (parents of these 12 years) doing so wrong? Is it that we dont think our kids will be doing things like that so we dont talk to them about sex and the consequences. Is it that we dont realize that kids are exploring more "grown up" activities then we were at that age? Whats going on?

I am trying to potty train my daughter, but it seems like we aren't getting anywhere, she likes to wear her panties, but it's a struggle to get her to go all the time. What can I do to motivate her and get her potty trained.

Okay so I wanted a new phone for my birthday. I couldn't get one because my contract wasn't up. That was 5 months ago. Today my mom's phone broke so she had to buy a new one. The phone she bought was buy one get one free. She gave the other phone to my brother. Okay, so before you say it I know that its a whiny question. Now considering that I haven't done anything bad lately nor has he done anything good AND I asked for a new phone for my birthday, is that fair.

The g/f "oopsed" me into parenthood by "forgetting" to take her birth control. She said adoption or abortion wasn't an option, so I tried to be supportive. But this kid is a little bastard: it cries and whines and stinks. I wasn't cut out for parenthood. What does one do in this situation?

would you be mad if you said that you are going to get your son a guitar for christmas so thats all he talked about? Cause my mom said she'll get me a guitar, because I still have the guitar i started with 3 years ago. And so i asked her if 500 dollars was too much, all i wanted was a yes or no question and she flipped a b i t c h on me. so would you be mad in this situation?

I am 28 weeks and I have been doing alot of research on natural birth. I have a very high pain tolerance and I hate not being in control of my body. My doctor asked me if I wanted the epidural and I said "No". He followed with "Yes you do". This is my first child and I understand that labor hurts like the raging fires of hell, but that is a risk I am willing to take. I am in no way afraid of needles, I just dont like pain medication of any kind. I know I dont want the epidural unless something goes wrong. I am not stupid or crazy and I have read other peoples answers. I am still kind of upset about the doctor trying to push the epidural on me. I want to breastfeed and I am afraid it will have an effect on the baby. I know every woman is different but I dont even take Tylenol for a headache. Anyone have any good advice or stories about natural labor?

I am 5 months pregnant and my boyfriend told me the other day that he has wandered if I got pregnant on purpose. I was on the pill and that was the only pre-caution that we took, I DID NOT and WOULD NEVER EVEN CONSIDER getting pregnant on purpose esp. before I was married. He said that he thought this because we were having trouble at the time & trying to figure out if we really wanted to be together. He had thought that maybe I got pregnant to keep him around. How can I get over the hurt of knowing that he could think that I would do something so horrible?

I have had alot of pregnancy symptoms for 3 weeks now, like nausea,cramping,sore breasts and they feel fuller,mood swings(crying more),light headache,very tired,and indigestion for 2 weeks. I have been on ortho novum 1/35 for 8 months and never had a problem. I haven't missed one pill either.My periods are always 4 days and the first 2 days are usually heavy,but this month it was one day only and very light. I had my one day period on Wednesday and I went to get a blood test on Thursday and it was NEGATIVE.
This is my second pregnancy and I so feel very pregnant now. My first pregnancy my HCG levels were very low at first(they kept sending me to the hospital for ultrasounds).
I have started my new pack of pills and I still feel the same pregnancy symptoms.
Does anybody relate?
