I had egg white stretchy mucus when ovulating (tinged with dark blood, whih i was told a good sign that the ovary released an egg). from ovulation day till now (DPO 10 or 11) I am still seeing clear mucus, but it is much less in quantity and doesn't stretch. My boobs are larger and tender ( noticed 3 days ago, which is unusual for me). My period is due in 5 days. HPT today negative (not a very sensitive test). Question : does the continuence of the somewhat ewcm a sign i am pregnant?

I feel like I am going crazy! I am 12 weeks pregnant with my first (after a miscarriage in May) and with the holidays coming up I feel like I am going crazy... I've been saving up my cash so that I can buy my SO (the father) some of the things he has been wanting, since he is always working and saving his money for us. I've bought him alot of things, and this week his boss came into town and bought him everything he has been wanting... meaning I have to take all my stuff back... and I don't know if its my hormones or what... but I am so upset over this. I've been crying for days. Is this emotional insanity because of my hormones? Please help! I feel like I'm losing it! Any ideas for how to calm down and not be such a crazy pregnant nagging girlfriend? thanks :)

My 3 1/2 year old daughter is moderatly delayed and she has a terrible habit of pinching EVERYONE to the point of bruises on me and my husband, when we dicipline her she does not seem to care and continues to do it more and more, with her delays I am not sure if she is getting what we are dicipling her for. So I am needing some advice on some ways to make this stop! Please help!

I'm really nervous about being a new mom at the age of 19 and I'm not sure I will always know what to do and how to tell if she has an ear infection or a cold or anything. what are some symptoms of common baby illnesses, and how can i help prevent them? i know she will get sick, but is there anything i can do to lessen the risk of something serious or chronic?

also, i wanted to put a plant in the baby room because my fiance and i like plants. is bamboo baby safe? or maybe even a flowering plant, like a gerber daisy?

for the 2nd baby? What's the age gap between the 2? How did you cope? Was it the right decision to have the 2 so close or far apart? How did you cope with the 2nd pregnancy running around the first baby? Just your experiences in general would be very much appreciated. My boy is 7 months and I think I may like another baby at some stage, but unsure of the 'timing'. I am 30 next year. Thank you all.

My son is 2.5 mos. and he has very strong legs. If you pull him up into the standing position, he will stand there for as long as you'll let him. (Holding his hands of course) My mom and sister had a fit the other day when I did this, though, claiming I was going to make him bowlegged. I've never heard of that. Anyone else? TIA

I got pregnant while I was living with my fiance. He is obviously the father of my baby and when I was three months along we slpit up. Things just ended up not working out and in the best interest of my son I left that alcoholic butt head. I'm not very big even though I'm 6 months along, and many men still find me attractive. I was going to wait until after I had the baby just cause I thought I'd be huge by now and figured nobody would want anything to do with me. I feel it's time to let go of the baby's father and move on. Some people feel I should wait cause it's morally wrong. Just wanted to hear other peoples view on my situation I'm in at this time. I also wanted to add in that I'm not ever going to put a man in front of what my child needs, I'm definatly going to be responsable in who I date, and in no way am I being selfish by wanting to date again. My son comes first!

I want to start TTC but I have been on Birth control for almost 6 years. Here is my problem I was on Depo for 4 years, 2yrs too long, the patch for 1 1/2 years and on pills fromthat point until last month. I have a 6 yr old. I am affraid there is something wrong with me but all the doctor says is your young and everything looks good. I heard it's always harder to concieve the second time around. What can I do to get pregnant other than have sex every other day, take prenatal vitamins, and drink lots of water? I heard that Geritol can help does anyone know anything about this?

Hi there! My first baby is due on December 19th and I still haven't even lost my mucus plug! The baby is also pretty high still..I'm so worried that I'll have to be induced. Is it normal to be nearly due and still not lose it? can anyone tell me when they lost their mucus plug, and how long it took after losing it before they went into labour? All replies appreciated..thanks..xx

I probably look about what a 7 month pregnant woman would look like but I'm a little over 37 wks!! I've gained 38pnds, though, I really don't know where that's gone because I've worn the same pants (small maternity pants) the whole pregnancy. He moves a TON and feels really strong, it's just that I don't want him to be really small and sickly, because I've read smaller babies have a harder time with illness and all that stuff. Anyone else have a small belly and normal size baby????Thanks!!
