Pregnancy & Parenting - 20 December 2006

I'm rather petite and am having trouble finding one that fits. I tried a wrap type one, and one by infantino. The wrap one is way too complicated and is in a stretchy fabric that after 5 minutes it's too stretched out to hold the baby. The infantino one would be good, but even with the straps in the smallest position my baby is still too far from my body.

I'm just interested in forward facing and tummy facing, not a cradle / nursing type position.

You check your pockets and pull out a binki

You have a poptart in your purse because you know the second you get to the mall your five year old is going to say "im hungry"

YOu have everything under the sun in the diaper bag...

(Give me some things for all ages all the way up to grown up children )

my "friend christina" had a baby on friday 3 months early and lost it about 4 hours later.she left the hospital later that night. one of her friends found out and said "you cant have a baby that soon and they would have done some tests to see why..im tired of all this..and if u were 6 months u would have looked like a watermelon". christina explained that she was only 13 and wasnt going to show very much. how do christina and i explain to her friend that she did have the baby and she didnt have to look like a watermelon to be 6 months pregnant. also what could have happened to make christina have the baby early?

I talk to a lot and sometimes, they say very mean things. I'm social and I'm still attempting to get a girlfriend.

What's the point of talking to the opposite sex when they are mean to nerds, like me?

My 18 month old son is in daycare 2-3 days a week from 9am to 4pm, so I pay between $50-$75 per week for child care. I just want to make sure I give the right amount of a bonus. Last year I gave her $100 and EVERYONE told me that was too much? But if I lower the bonus this year will it look bad? I really like her and she is great with my son! Should I just give what I did last year? It really makes no differance to me I was just wondering what the average bonus is?

Sorry to be a little graphic, but I've been getting kinda painful cramps for a few days now (on and off) kind of in the vagina & rectum...
No constipation or anything, and they do eventually go away, but sometimes the rectal cramps are so bad I can't stand up. Happens mostly in the morning when I'm about to get out of bed, but also at other times.
Has anyone else had this? What is it? I don't really think it's anything serious, I mean weird cramps and pains happen all through pregnancy, but is there something I can do to relieve this a little?
Thanks so much if you can help me.

Is it true you're not supposed to go to the dentist while pregnant? Why is that? I am due for my 6 month cleaning and just found out I’m pregnant. I'm 6 weeks. Is it too late to go?

Most women ovulate around day 14 but I don't ovulate till day 19 or 20. A fertililty specialist (we've been trying for 9 months) told me it can hinder conception. Just curious why. I'm still ovulating....shouldn't that be enough?

Okay, my kids are 1 1/2 and 2 1/2. They are both going through a phase now where each wants what the other has. I've taken a toy away from both but realized it wasn't fair to the one who had the toy first. Is it best to let themselves work it out together or is it best that I ALWAYS intervene? I've tried both and for some things, it is best to let them work it out in most some circumstances. My mother-in-law is completely against it though. I'm hearing one side from my mom and one side from his mom and it's driving me insane. Are kids capable of working problems out at this age or am I just imagining they are?
