My kids are 9, 5 and almost 4. I feel terrible I ever played into this. I would really like to tell them something like "the spirit of Christmas is in all of us and we are like St Nicholas in some way". I just don't think there is an easy way out.

I'm having the hardest time staying asleep. I'm 11 weeks pregnant and I know waking up to go the bathroom multiple times is normal. But I'm having trouble finding a comfortable sleeping position. I'm not big at all so I can still lay on my back and stomach but I just continue to flip, toss, turn all night. Any suggestions??

I took depo for 5 years, stopped taking it Oct 13th (that's when I was supposed to get my next injection), Cycled Nov 13-16, noticed ovulation jell-slime-stuff around the 30th-3rd, had sex the 30th, 2nd, and 4th (among other times), took a test on the 14th that came out negative- and haven't had a period since... Though it could all be affected by the depo since it's supposed to take 12wks to clear out of your system (and yes I know it can take longer... much longer!)... But I've got this wierd thing where I can smell EVERYTHING even from a distance, and my boobs are sore... What do ya'll think? Pregnant? Not Pregnant? Wait until the 1st and take another test? Thanks!

I sent my daughter to daycare with out a diaper rash. She came home red as can be (it isn't on her bottom it's all on her front)
I was told she had a BM and wasn't changed for 30 mins which is not good to if you smell it you should change it asap!
My daycare director is saying she had to have a rash before she came in and it didn't happen in one day.
My daughter does have skin allergies does that come into play to make it red faster?
Thanks

Personally, I rarely got smacked growing up (im 19). I think its wrong (no matter what), if you feel you have to do that, you have poor communication skills, and your parenting skills are probably lacking also.

Its a week after the end of my last period so is it possible i could get pregnant if i have unprotected sex?

2006-12-19 06:02:01 · 20 answers · asked by Laura E 1 in Pregnancy

He won't take a pacifier. The pedi recommended Domeboro, which I tried but can't get him to soak for more than a minute. He won't keep any kind of wrap on his fingers. I use Aquaphor several times a day also. This all helps, but still isn't really fixing it.

my lil brother made his girlfriend pregnant and hes only 12 years old , what should I do????????

I've read that babies in the womb practice making fists and grasping and working their little legs and hands, and while doing those activies they can pinch and even scratch the walls of the uterus with their fingers and toe nails.

Obviously its nothing of concern, but Ive never heard anyone say that they've felt such a thing.

Anyway, my question is if anyone else while pregnant was pretty sure they were being scratched and pinched.

At night I swear I can feel this little guy move his foot clear across my belly and its like his toe nail is scratching the whole way. OUCH!

Or I might feel little fingers working, and pinching in there. Its unpleasant, but kinda neat.

Anyone else remember that when pregnant?

(Iam nearly 36 weeks)

I read all these questions from teenagers and young adults about sex, and they have no idea the consequences or that having sex totally changes your life. do any other parents out there wonder what happened to the art of parenting? My mom had me at 17 and she made sure that I wouldn't make the same decisions and that I would have better oppurtunities than she did. I worry for all these babies in the world having babies or getting STD's because they haven't been educated. Maybe I'm just blowing off steam but I am curious to see if anyone shares my opinion.

LMP 22nd Nov, next 1 due tomorrow (20th Dec). Had sex 3rd, 4th and 5th Dec knowing that I should ovulate around the 6th Dec. Been feeling bit sick on and off, really tired and sore nipples, heavy feeling in breasts. Used First Response test on 16th-negative, repeated this morning (19th) and theres a faint line. Ive read through the leaflet but cant find anything about if theres a faint line. Am I pregnant?Any sensible opinions please. Thanx.
