Lately I have been feeling sick in the mornings, not every morning though. Also I feel dizzy alot and I get really bad headaches and I'm always hungry and after I do eat I still feel hungry, Just curious if I could be pregnant or if this could possibly be caused by stress.

I have heard that it is possible to plan the sex of the baby you want to have and that it depends on the time you 'meet' your partner. Is this true? If so, how do you go about it? Can this work if one desires to have twins too. How can I have twins if I want to?

Thank you

when pregnant is trapped wind one of the early signs....i keep having sharp pains that feels like period pains but then i have to brake wind (sorry) :)........i have never had this before but as my period is late and ive also been feeling a bit sick i was wondering if anyone had trapped wind when pregnant....ive taken 3 tests that have all been negative, as my my period is only 3 days late i think it might not show as positive as when i was preg before it took a while to get a correct reading!

I took EC about 3days after having unprotected sex. About 2 weeks ago I started getting nasuea, fatigue, tender breast, loss of appitite, hightened sense of smell, and sudden headaches. All of which are unusual for me. I went to doctor and they said I was healthy. They did a urine pregnancy test and it came back negitive. I got my period on the 8th and it ended on the 12th. It was lighter than normal and I am still experiancing these symptoms. Is it possible I am pregnant?

Time and time again, I've heard the pleas and felt the sadness of middle children. I just feel I should spare this bit of advice. I know exactly how you feel. I'm a middle child too. To be honest, I've always felt out of place even in my own family and "different" from the other 2. This is called the Middle Child Syndrome. It's something I've never gotten over...It was worse in my teen years, I did alot of things to get attention; run away from home, smoke, bad company, etc. I'm 20 years old now and to be honest, the "middle child syndrome" has never quite left me. But I've learnt to live with it. You will too. It's easier to accept the things you cannot change then to fight it. Parents in general, love their children equally. However, each child is given different treatment whether they care to admit it or not. Often, the middle child is "neglected" in the area of attention.

its not braxtons or stomache muscle streching. i know its not labour as it doesnt hurt much. i wouldnt say its a pain more of an ache its been coming and going since last night lasting about 10-20 secs then going away again for any where from 5 minutes to a 1 hour. but i was only woken twice from it while i slept. now im starting to get back ache with it but it only last a while then goes its not there all the time.I know i can ring my midwife but i dont think its anything to worry about as its not painfull, there no blood or anything. i just want to know if anyone else have had it

My son is sick with an ear infection, so we won't be doing the usual play area/play group thing today. This is the 2nd day in the house, and we're both going stir-crazy. I hate to have the TV on all the time either. He still has plenty of energy to burn even sick!

Yesterday, we made ornaments for the tree. What are some other fun ideas for an indoor day?

I had recently took my baby for her routine exams and she is usually pretty good after she gets her shots, she doesnt usually get fussy during the next following days. But this time a few days after her shot she seems sick and in discomfort. I asked the nurse if the flu shot would give her side effects and she said no. I asked my Mom and she said she never accepted the flu shot for any of her kids and I shouldnt have done it. Im confused. My daughter does not seem happy at all and is not sleeping regularly either. I have given her some infant tylenol drops but they didnt seem to help much. Should I even go back again for the 2nd shot? Please help. 1st time Mother with deep conserns.

apart from the obvious diet and healthy options what else can one do to be aware of this and can you be treated for it while pregnant?

During labour, delivery, shortly post-partum, etc.

Apropos of a 'blighted ovum' (short form: miscarriage), I ended up in the maternity ward (!!!), having surgery.

Trying to get adequate pain relief before and after the surgery, and sedation so I could sleep the night I was there, was a pain. Not much, and it eventually showed up, but enough of a pain to leave me unconvinced that a hospital birth is the way to go if worried about pain relief. (NB: midwives -- here, anyway -- can prescribe/provide drugs.) Given that all that was, obviously, without any concern vis-a-vis a baby and the effect of the drugs on same, I'm wondering how often there's a substantial delay in getting pain control when needed and requested.

As it was, I was left feeling like I should apologise -- and did, and was less than thrilled with the reaction. There was a lot of "Of course you're going to be in some pain!" Yeah -- but I didn't expect to have the minimum done for it when in a hospital.

Comments?
