My boyfriend and I have a 1 year old son and he wont sleep by himself...does anyone have any tips on how to get him into the habit of sleeping on his own in a bed, not a crib. He moves around alot when he sleeps so I'm afraid he's going to fall out of bed if he sleeps by himself. Would a bigger (twin vs. crib) size mattress be better?

Hey- I'm 17-years-old, and I've been thinking of getting the patch for birth control. I'm just wondering how well it works with everyone before hand. If it doesn't work too well, any other reccommendations? Thanks a bunch! =)

If you have ever gone to summer camp, have you ever sat on your counselor's lap?

It's kind of annoying when people do it... esspecially at my summer camp.

I have had two children...the most recent was 13 yrs ago. I remember breast feeding for about 3 months with each child. It was hard. It was demanding, uncomfortable and messy as hell (leaking all the time).

Now after all these years Im about to have another baby. My fiance is no longer in my life (cheating dawg). I have no help in this city, no family, no spouse. Just a difficult teenager I must contend with each day....and very very soon a newborn too

These days they tell you to breastfeed..and make you feel guilty if you dont...but for the first time tonight Im considering that maybe it isnt the best thing for me. Making up a days worth of bottles is so much easier...and then I know how much baby is getting.

I honestly dont think I can handle months of sleep deprevation (feeding every 2 hrs or so). Being on my own is hard enough.

Im afraid of falling to depression as it is. Maybe everything will be fine, but who knows

Its ok NOT to breastfeed right?

Things that would really make life easier. You know how sometimes you think to yourself- If I only had something to help with this task. What would it be?

Who should never have a baby...cannot be someone who has already had a child.

Do women usually start to show by 8 weeks? If so, how would a overweight woman be able to tell? Serious answers only, please.

Suppose someone had sex December 9th and again 22nd(yes, it was with the same guy...lol)
I still got my "period" on its due date (December 28th)...But my period was only 2-3 days long, and usually it's a week or even over sometimes. Yesterday, I also realized that I started having lower abdominal pains...It's not really a pain, it's more of just pressure on my lower abdomin. Could I be pregnant?
If so- would it be too early to take an EPT or First Response test?

I really need some baby boy names! I have only come up with Dylan and Jaylen. Are these too popular? I like Jayden but everybody is naming their son/daughter this. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks
