Pregnancy & Parenting - 22 December 2006

I'm having this trouble with my 10 month old. She discovered a week ago that she can climb into the sofa. And I can not do anything else but to watch her. The second I turn around....she is up again. Should I remove the sofa from the family room? Where are we gon'na seat then? If that was the solution no house in the country would have a sofa by now..........what to do????

Mu hubby and I have a little girl. (Which by the way is what I had hoped for in round 1). Now I am pregnant with a boy. We have chosen to have him circumsized. Where can I find information on how to care for a circumsized penis. I am really nervous about this and would like to read up in advance. Also, any personal stories or insight you can provide would be helpful.

my oldest child is almost 4 and last week she mentioned she had a friend who had a green shirt and hat, purple pants, and brown shoes. But then she said that he was dead. Lately she's been obsessed with death so what she said didn't take me by surprise. and to tell you the truth, I thought she was talking about the host of Blues Clues. So I just listened. Well, I guess on a seperate occasion she told my husband the same thing. Well, tonight, she mentioned her "friend" again, however, this time, it seemed more real. She said taht he was dead becasue someone put a gun in his mouth. this shocked me because I have NO idea where else she would have gotten that image. Also, we have never taught her any religion and so it shocked me that she said that he was up in the sky now and she can't go with him b/c she's not dead like him. I am thouroughly freaked out & don't know if she is dreaming or if it is a spirit. I'm a skeptic but does NE1 have same experience? Suggestions? Help!

I've met so many spoilt rude children in the past, as well as very unresponsible parents. I think maybe that BOTH parents, should pass some sort of test, or maybe obtain a license before they even think of having children! Or even better, the age people can have children!
We have to pay bloody taxes to the government here, only to be spent as benefits on pathetic useless young couples who aren't even bothered enough to find proper jobs!
What do you think though?

He cries a lot!!! Sometimes we don't even know why. We really can't go anywhere with him cause I'm afraid he'll hit someone a total stranger~ again. He doesnt eat anything but toast, waffles, fruit and milk. When he gets mad he bangs his head, throws himself on the floor back and forth. He is getting help but I can't really say it's helping. I'm loseing my mind slowly but surely. Does anyone have any pointers on the no eating and banging his head? He doesnt talk either. They are teaching him sign language.

We are driving 7 hours with my 6 month old to be with family for Christmas. He really doesn't like riding in his carseat much, we are thinking of leaving at night instead of day in hopes that he'll sleep...I want to know what others have experienced. Thanks!

Pretty, funky middle names would be appreciated, because Darcy is a more traditional name.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Why are American parents NOT circumsizing their sons anymore? All doctors agree that circumcision helps STOP the spread of HIV & STD's, and that it's cleaner for men and the women they're involved with?

This report from the CDC states clearly that Circumsized men have "signifigantly lower risk for HIV".

Why would you want your sons to NOT be circumsized? ..
What about the next generation of girls who will pay the price for not having this simple procedure done??

I posted this Question before and it must have upset some people--but this is a legitamate Question. If this Question upsets you, then Answer this question like an adult; not some immature child --just because you can't understand medicine & science.

I have always had a regular cycle that lasted between 26-29 days. I am 8 days late. Never been this late before. Every period I have I get cramps and a backache before it starts. Now I am noticing brownish blood with a tiny tiny bit of red in it. I havent had ANY cramps or PMS symptoms. I have had tender nipples, usually when I get my period my whole breast is sore. Is this supposed to be my period???
