Does it have to do with nutrition (ie. more for the baby) or is it just an issue of comfort?

When you first found out, was it through an ultrasound? How far along were you? Was it the very first ultrasound they took? Or was it though the heartbeat doppler?

I took a blood test today and today happens to be day 9 after ovulation. Whatever my result is (I'll know in a couple hours) will it be accurate?

both my kids are born in august, just one year apart.. 1 & 2 years old... before i had my son i was in the process of getting my daughter off the bottle, she got off the pacifier fast, but the bottle is harder because everytime he has a bottle, she wants one.. now im trying to get both of them off the bottle but they wont drink anything other than water in a sippie cup...they will only drink milk in a bottle. i cant even get my son off the pacifier, if he doesnt have it, he cries like somethings trying to eat him, i swear....

I know every baby is different, but my 4 mo. old has not rolled over yet and she doesn't seem to be anywhere close. She lifts her head for a few seconds at a time, but she never uses her arms (only her back or torso) to lift her head up. Is this something I should be concerned with?

P.S. I will be asking her doctor about it on Friday, I just wanted some opinions from experienced parents.

Thanks!

Ok, I am 38 weeks preggo. About 2-3 weeks ago i was 1 cm dialated and 80% effaced, and at a -1 station. The last couple of days i have been having bad cramping, like really bad period cramps. They are not timeable, they just come and go. I have also had all loose stools. The baby seems like its not moving a lot either. Could this mean labor? Should i call a doctor?

2-3 cm 39 weeks membranes stripped yesterday. i was feeling light period cramps yesterday and today they are getting stronger but i can still handle them. i do have pain in my back more and when i walk it feels like my back is about to fall off my shoulders. this is my second pregnancy and totally diff from the first one... how many cm do you have to be for them just to keep you there? and how fast do you dilate? if i just was seen by my doct yesterday would it be a waste of time to go in today for about 45 min - and hour and get checked to see if i dilated anymore?

I heard of a 12 year old who is pregnant. I think the parents should be allowed to make their kids get abortions. I feel some law should be passed. I know it''s sounds irrational but the parents will suffer. In essence, they will be having the child. I believe you can only work a certain amount of hours under the age of 16. If the parents don't thoroughly support these fast kids the government (you and I) will. I feel that you should have that power tp forcwe your sexually active rightfully immature kid to have an abortion. Parents are left powerless. I have no kids but God forbid my hot in the pants daughter gets knocked up at 12, I want her to ABORT or throw her down a flight of staircases. There are so many reasons one being that I want my daughter to have and live a life second being the financial cost. I know it's WRONG but....what do you think parents?

My 15 month old is very hard to get to sleep, even when it's completely obvious he's tired. I think a lot of it is that he wants his daddy, but my husband often doesn't get home till after the baby is sleeping, I try holding him off and keeping him awake, but he just cries and wants to be clingy, yawns and rubs his eyes the entire time, and most days he won't nap. We have a bedtime routine, but it's not working, and I notice that on days when my husband makes it home, bedtime goes a little easier. any ideas?

I'm 7 weeks, almost 8 weeks and my family already knows. I’m so excited I want to tell everyone! Do you think its too soon, What’s the harm in telling everyone right now? I've had absolutely no complications so far.
