My fiance and I have been together for quite awhile. I am pregnant by him. We are staying with his mom and step-dad until we can get our own place. He has another kid by someone he hardly knows (it was a one night stand and she just so happen to get pregnant by him) I don't mind the kid, I accept that. But my fiance's mom invited Alex (his son) and his mom to spend the night last night, knowing that I had to go to school today and she would be all alone with my fiance. He doesn't want her around either, he can't stand her. He has explained this to his mom NUMEROUS times. So instead of staying at home this morning my fiance got up early and went and stayed at his aunt's until he had to go to work. Should he have to be booted out of the place where he stays because his mom has invited her over? Am I wrong for being upset? What would you do? please help.!. because now, I feel like never speaking to his mother again.

I know this question gets asked 10 times a day but all the other questions didnt cover exactly what I'm trying to figure out. I've been off birth control for about a year now...I've had abnormalties on my cervix twice with both times I had biopsys which both times came back normal i have a follow up for the most recent biopsy in March...anyway I was due for my period around 11/16 and I have yet to recieve it...I've never really kept up with my period and the exact dating of it so when i took the first few pregnancy test I probably wasn't even late yet gosh im rambling..okay basically im almost a month late..I have a pregnancy test and im debating whether i should take it or wait a little longer. I don't really have any symptoms rather than possible food craving..teeth have started bleeding and when i use the rest room i kinda get a small cramping...also, when i have to use the bathroom it almost seems like ive been holding it for hours when i just went is this sign or maybe a UTI?

My main ? is transitioning to milk. My pedi. said I can just give her milk or transition like 1/2 and 1/2. She still won't use a sippy cup even though we try many times a day. She loves a regular cup though. My pedi. said not to put the milk in the bottle, but I know I did with my other dd and I have friends who do it. Is it really a big deal? I am afraid to change to milk because she doesn't eat much food and she won't get the nutrition she needs but my dr. said she will eat when she is hungry. She told me to drop 2 of her 4 bottles and offer her milk in a cup and eventually drop all bottles. What ways worked best for some of you. Now I am going to stress about this. I had so much stress and worry about her development and now look what she is doing. In a few weeks or month she will be drinking out of a cup and I would have worried for no reason.anyway, I would love some advice on how you all did the formula to milk. I thanks Debbie

Did you have a feeling you would have your baby that day or did it just happen suddenly? Was it your first baby and how many weeks were you? I am 39 weeks now and so anxious....this is my first and I don't really know what to expect other than a lot of pain.

I am going to the doctor today and they are probly going to do an u/s, and I was wondering if you can see the baby then or just the sack. I know at 8 weeks you can see the baby, but not sure about 5 weeks. and also, Is the heart beating yet? Would I be able to see that? I have had a miscarriage before and for me to see a heartbeat is the most important thing, that way I know everything is ok so far. Thanks

She cries a great deal as she pushes, with no luck. It's only been 2 days, I know that's normal, but she was up 2 hours straight last night crying while she pushed.

My daughter will be turning 1 soon and I don't want to "go all out" for her birthday but I want it to be special. So could you give me some ideas or tell me what you did for your child's first birthday? What type of decorations, who you invited, what type of food you served etc.?
Thank you!

My girlfriend and I have been going out for almost 6 months now. She's 14 and I just turned 15. Were starting to get sexual but we haven't had sex. We think we should slow down and wait a little longer. But, every time we're together we just can't resist. So is there anything y'all can say for advice? Thank you

Long story short, I've liked him for a couple of years, he's in one of my classes now...yada yada. [we're 15]. k, he was my first major crush and all I can say was, I didn't know what to do so I'd always stare at him [at lunch, in between classes etc.] I always thought it was cute/funny, how he always [even w/his back turned] seemed to know I was looking at him, and how he'd turn around and look at me. That was the stupid me...like I said, now he's in 1 of my classes and he always looks at me now. I'm not gonna lie, I still like him, but now I'm kinda thinking he likes me 2. I can't really describe it, it's like the little things we do around each other, but in class i was reading and my teacher told me to put it away, and he was staring at me, and my friend was like why do you always stare at her do you like her? He has a very jokey personality, but when he said, yea I like her, it came out not as sarcastic as it should've been.

I just found out yesterday that my baby died five weeks ago in the womb. I will now have no insurance as i am no longer what they consider "pregnant" I can't afford another hospital bill i.e. a d&c. What can i do to make it miscarry...or is there even a way? What about blue cohosh. Does that stuff work?

My daughter started sucking her index finger when she was about 2yrs old. She picked it up from another kid at day care. I have tried the spicy and sour stuff you rub on the finger - she likes the taste. I have tried to use tape or band-aids she rips them off. I even go in when she is sleeping and try to take it out of her mouth, and she will pull and fight in her sleep. Her bottom teeth have started to become crooked. I want to break her of this...any ideas??
