My fiance and I are ttc. my period was supposed to start on the 24th but so far nothing. I ovulated on the 10th and we had unprotected sex on the 9th. I have noticed that my nipples are darker than normal and the skin around them has little bumps on them. I have been more tired than normal as well. I took an HPT last night and this morning and both were negative. what could be going on?

I've noticed lately an abundance of people acting appauled when I mention having another babby. I have a 9 month old, and I've been married to my husband over a year now. We have some financial issues, but were not sinking in a ton of debt or having things re-poed. I so much as look at a baby with interst and people say "oh no, girl, don't even think about it. All except my in-laws, (sisters) "it's about time for a baby brother dontcha think?" they say. Why would peple be acting one way or the other about when 'I' have children. BTW I'm 25 and my husband is 27. We have insurance.

I am 7 weeks pregnant with my first baby. :)

I am not experiencing morning sickness, but I feel yucky most of the time. I don't want to eat, but then I feel sick when I don't! And when I do eat I feel like the food is sitting in my stomach like a brick.

Did you feel this way when you were pregnant? How did you deal with it? What can I eat that won't feel so heavy in my stomach?

I have a 10 month old that crys ALL the time~ He just wants to be held-by me. It's so frustrating for me. Sometimes my mom will offer to watch him and once I call and check on them she says "Oh he's fine he has been sitting in the floor playing the whole time" The moment I get over there to get them (I also have a three yr old) he starts screaming for me to pick him up. I talked to my pediatrician about it and he said that I will have to let him just cry it out ..so one night my husband sat in the boy's room with them and I came into the living room and put on a pair of headphones (I can't stand to listen to him just cry). We did this for 2 HOURS!!! And he was still crying. I have never seen such a stubborn child!! I love him dearly and I am glad that he obviously loves me so much but... how am I suppose to get anything done? My husband works 12 hrs a day while I stay at home with the kids. I would love for him to at least once be able to come home to a cooked meal or a half way clean house! This morning he had no clean socks and I felt AWFUL but here I am again ...sitting here holding my youngest and not getting things done! I even try to sit in the floor and play with him and that doesn't work unless he is in my lap. Just this past week it has gotten even worse. Before he would at least sit in his high chair at lunch and eat but now he won't even do that. Even my three year old is starting to get frustrated when my husband came in last night he said "daddy .. he crys and crys and crys!!" How do you entertain your children while you are busy? My oldest sits and plays with his trains and cars .. always has. But I can't seem to find anything to keep the baby happy!? Suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated! --by the way I am positive that there is nothing wrong with him because the minute I pick him up he stops crying. And he is good if I am not around.

I'm pregnant and went to get check up.They had to take blood ,first the Medical assistant stuck the needle in without knowing where the vain was,then took it out and tried to fid another vain.Then she brouht another coehead like herself in and they both were looking for a vain in my arm.When I gave them the idea to take it out of my hand they couldn't do it either,onedidn't know how and the other couldn't tell which vain to take it out of.They became insulted when I volunteered to go to a lab and have someone there do it(I'm supposed to let them stick me until they find a vein?).I no longer felt comfy in there care.The R.N. finally came along and didn't want to do it so she gave me a lab sheet.She suggested if I'd drank more water ,they wouldv'e been able to do it!(Blamed THEIR incompetence on me!).Then told me she hopes she doesn't get me in labor because she'd have hell hooking me to an I.V.(now I feel safe!)..............This was an awful experience!should I switch offices?

My sons are 18 months old and 3. I see no problem being naked around them at all. My husband and I never close the bathroom door, hell we have some of our best conversations on the toilet lol. I sometimes bathe with my sons, they've seen me on the toilet etc but some of my relatives think the children shouldn't see me naked. I want them to know what a female body looks like as well as male. I don't think nudity's a shameful thing. so my question is, how do you know when you're supposed to stop? Has anyone here never stopped at all? Women are naked around each other all the time, trying each other's clothes etc and but both my children are male so i'm a bit unsure of this one.

My last period was on november 2 and I am late now. I took a couple preg test which came back neg. At first I was experienceing headaches, feeling sick, and abdominal pain but then it went away. I recently went to the doctor for a check up which went good, but she told me to come back next month for another test. Now I dont understand why she wont give me a blood test if thats the most accurate. But anyway, last night I was feeling a little stomache pain then I woke up this morning with a brown discharge. is that normal? I seen this a couple days ago but other then that I never seen that in my whole life. What do you think am I pregnant and if there was apossibility that I was could I be having a miscarriage or something?

I have a 2 year old and she is minded at a daycare while I'm a work. However, I would like to have a roster of teenage girls who would be willing to mind her on the odd evening when we go out. Where is the best place to find responsible babysitters. We live in North London

This would be the 3rd time now that my daughter has went through a spell of claiming she has to pee every few minutes. She doesn't say she hurts and when I've taken her to the doctor the test always come back negative for a UTI. I've caught her itching her genitals alot though the past 3 days which makes me wonder if it could be a yeast infection. However those are the only symptoms. Itching and feeling like she keeps having to pee. She looks a little red but I figured that was from wiping every 10 minutes. I asked her ped. and he said he really isn't sure but that it was probably just a slight yeast infection and give her lots of yogert. The reason I ask could she be playing me is that it never fails when we are doing something fun, she can hold it and doesn't complain about having to pee all the time. But as soon as bed-time approaches then she is right back at it and telling me every 5 minutes that she HAS to pee right now or she will pee her bed. What do you think?
