Thanks!

She scoots to get around and she does it very fast. She has never crawled normally. Any suggestions on how I can get her to walk? She cries when I try standing her up and we had x-rays done to see if her bones were okay and they were. Help please. Only serious advice please, no jokes, this is a very sensitive issue. Thanks.

The other day, I walked into my 9 year old daughter touching herself. Is it normal for them to do that at this age? Isn´t she just too young for this?

I had an abortion a year ago, I didn't want to but my parents were extremely disappointed and my dad told me I was getting one (he thought he could actually-legally- force me too, which makes me reallly mad)

My boyfriend and I have been thinking about having a baby. I know it's crazy but I feel it will fullfill me. Were going to make our decision tonight, I just wanted some opinions.

PS I am pretty good at predicting common replies that I'll get, so if you can please avoid telling me the following: babies are not "dolls", they're a huge responsibility (trust me I already know that), you're too young.

Does anyone else do this? DH says it's funny - I just find it plain annoying! Also, if this is a problem now, how's it going to be when I'm closer to my due date? (I'm only 28 weeks now - can you imagine what it's going to be like in another 12 weeks??)

For example, today when I sat down at the computer, my belly hit the desk on the way down. Or when I turn, I sometimes hit my belly on a nearby table or chair. It doesn't hurt, but it's getting to be really annoying!

Does anyone have a similar experience? Any tips to avoid this?

Im 15 weeks pregnant and had a few questions, How should i be feeling at this stage? I dont have any pregnancy symptoms except eating more, is this normal? and then i was wondering if my chance of a miscarry has dropped yet? I seen the heartbeat on ultrasound at 10 weeks 5 days? When is the soonest i can find out the sex of the baby? and can you tell if its a boy or a girl based on how you look or feel? i have two boys and this pregnancy has been sooooo different...is this normal? Like my skin is breaking out, things like that. Did anyones pregnancy differ from sex to sex? Thanks so much? oh and would i be considered 4 months now?

My daughter will be 5 in a couple of weeks. Here lately she has really been on this kick that we are being mean to her when she doesn't get her way or when she's misbehaving. Even when we aren't REALLY being MEAN to her. Some of it is a little jealousy of her 16 month old sister, but is this just a normal phase that will pass or what? It is driving me crazy-HELP!!!!!!!!!

We've tried giving him time-outs. He says 'sorry' then gets back up off of his chair and does it again. He's not normally a brat, but when he gets into one of these moods, he's a handful!

The first day of my last period was Nov 26 and I usually have 30 days until my next one. I'm usually regular and never late. . I had a conception on dec 20 and i thought i wasn't ovulating and won't get pregnant if we did it after ovulating days. Today is dec 29 and i haven't got my period yet which i should have it between the 25-27. Am I pregnant? Should I take the test? Btw, I notice that i have light spotting.

I lost my mucus plug last night, but it didn't have any blood. Does that mean labor will be soon. I have been contracting for 2 weeks now and on medicine to slow them. My cervix is soft, but not dialated. I feel like I am carrying a bowling ball between my legs and have pains down there. What should I expect? Should I call and tell my doctor about my mucus plug?

I want to do my first marathon in August. After that, I would like to get pregnant during the fall. Do you think the running will be too hard on my body and keep me from conceiving for a few months?

He added: "But behind a desk so it's safe and you get lots of fun; all the excitment and lots of gadgets to play with..."
Is that a career path I should let him consider, really?
