on here? I have, sooo many times, seen men answer a question that they could not possibly know the true answer to, even if they were doctors (and I very much doubt any are). They may have wifes or girlfriends that they have talked to about certain areas of pregnancy, but overall, they seem to have answers that are totally incorrect and offer very bad advice. Most people who ask questions on here are looking for help with their pregnancies, and the mostly ignorant or stupid answers given by men are just no help at all!!

I started feeling sick a week ago now only 5 days after having sex. The doctor said it may mean that I am pregnant but would I really start feeling sick so soon after concieving, and if it's not pregnancy then why have I been feeling sick for a whole week but haven't physically been sick? Also I can't go on my monthly cycle as that is irregular!! Very confussed - don't want to get my hopes up as pregnancy seems to good to be true!!!

My three children were born through ceaserian operation because of small pelvic as being proofed through scan. so is there any possibility of having another child through normal delivery and if no can i still conceive based on operation which could be dangerous for i have already had three surgery.

how would guys react if God placed them in the situation of having to bear children instead of women for say, a decade?

I am planning to start a family in the next few months, but as I am a bit of a organised freak, I like to know as much information as possible.
I would like to know who many weeks pregnant it is safe to work up until. Government Legislation states that you can start Maternity leave 11weeks before the week that your baby is due, but I would like to know what the latest sensible date would be ie 34/36/38 weeks of pregnancy, so that I can plan ahead.

I have been in a relationship for one year. We are not married and I'm 9 weeks prgnt not planed. I have two grown boys from a different relationship. I don't get to see their father at all and once in a blue we communicate on the phone. My partner has strong negative issues with my oldest son and is very concerned about having to deal with my childrens father and is not ready for commitment with me and be a family. He feels pressured and unstable. He is not at all happy about bringing a baby into this world at this point in our lives. He is willing to assume responsibility for the baby but as for us he says time will tell. I don't want to be a single mom again. It has been very difficult for me raising two boys alone. Im very scared. I know I should of been more carefull but its too late for that. I am concidering an abortion but it is really hard. Especially that I do care for him a great deal. He cares to but not enough for a family. What do I do?

He is constantly licking his lips and the top one cracks and bleeds often. We have a cold winter, so the heat is on, but we run a humidifier in his room to help. I put Aquaphor on his lips religiously, but he ends up licking or rubbing a lot of it off. Any suggestions?

How long did you wait to, try again, after having an ectopic pregnancy? How long after your ep did you have a successful pregnancy?

Thanks ahead of time for your answers. Your input will really help me a lot.

I'm 37 weeks and I believe that is full term, but I read different opinions on this. I go weekly to the dr, who seems totally unconcerned by my recent symptoms but since this is my first baby I am worried about everything!!! I'm starting to dilate (1 cm) and feel constant pressure and cramping, like I'd feel if I was getting my period. I've been active and exercised throughout but suddenly I feel like I'm too tired and sore to continue my regimen. My dr said not to worry until I'm having regular contractions at 5 minutes or my water breaks. Are the cramps a sign that labor could be close, and if so, am I at a safe time in the pregnancy to deliver a healthy baby?

the young children of today seem to be out of control - with no one taking responsibility for them or seeming to care

where are the parents?
what are the schools doing?
what are the police doing?
what about the government?

there seems to be more focus on the bad ones and the children who do manage to behave themselves are being ignored.

they seem to have lost their sense of direction, only wishing to have careers in music,marry a footballer and getting their clothes off.

who is teaching them about values and self respect,and respect for others

He cries when he has woken up but he wont have his feed or bottle he just takes a little sip of water from his bottle and goes back to sleep and he does this every 2 hours. He doesnt sleep in the days so its not that he has too much sleep. He eats fine in the day but when it comes to the nights he's terrible. What is wrong does anyone know?

My 12 year old daughter is being bullied at school by 2 other girls, they are her age but there is allways two of them.
My daughter is not the type of girl who is violent and does not retaliate even though she has been kicked.
Me and my wife have been to the school on numerous occasions to complain and my wife has spoken to the mother of one of the other girls but it has not stopped.
If i get involved, i am affraid when i knock on the parents door i will not be able to stay calm if confronted by the father. I do not want it to come to this but i can not sit back and watch my 12 year old suffer.
She is getting good results at school and i am affraid this will suffer if the bullying goes on.

Should i confront the parents myself or would you suggest a different approach.

The school has offered my daughter counselling, this i think is a load of ****, why should the victim be counselled, it should be the bully.

Any sugestions please.
