Pregnancy & Parenting - 9 January 2007

okay. this question is actually for my friend and im not sure what to tell her for that fact that im not sure so please help me give her some good wisdom. She took a pregnancy test the day after her missed period and got a positive result. Two days after she spotted and the next day bled almost as heavy as a normal period and then the day after spotted for the last time. What could this have meant??

okay, i'm really undecided about wether or not breastfeeding my baby. there are ups and there are downs. breastfeeding didn't work with my first baby, and i don't know what i want to do with the second one. should i try it first in the hospital and if it don't work, just go to bottle? i know the benefits and downs of breastfeeding. and one other thing too that made it hard the first time is that i have an inverted nipple....

My two month old has had diarrhea for the past three weeks, which is causing her to slowly gain weight. She used to be in the 90% now she is below 50%. We did not have any problem for the first month, she used to poop up to 10 times per day, yellow with grains, not up to 3 times per day she poops brown watery stuff. We went to two pediatricians and none of them had anything helpful to say, one checked for blood and said, “well at least she is not bleeding”. She is breastfed, I’m not drinking milk or eating any dairy products, as well as eggs. Any suggestions as to the cause of her diarrhea or a solution? Thanks.

When do people stop doing this? I have heard of people, up to age two, saying their child is 17 months or 22 months. Why not say that they are a year and a half or almost two instead?

and do I need to think about special schools?
I don't know kids, only my own, but I just asked a question about her thinking lower case g was a baby 9, ( cute, I know) and got 30 people telling me she's advanced! She is 2 and 7 months, she knows her letters and numbers, colors and shapes, animals, and is learning to spell 2 and 3 letter words, she's been potty trained for ages ( all I did was say no more diapers, we go in the potty, and she has ever since), I don't even know what else is relevant, but she loves to learn... so what do I do? I want her to enjoy her childhood, but also don't want her to be bored or frustrated when she does start school, any advice? thanks.

I need advise on how to help this and I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem....

I am 17 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child... I've been having braxton hicks for the past 2 weeks. My doc said to stop doing so much, however I really don't. My hubby has been an excellent help, that he does most the chores, and leaves me with the light cleaning. (Our house is always clean anyways, so he don't have to do to much.) I was thinking about doing more instead seeing as how taking it easy didn't stop them from starting. With my first pregnancy EVERYTHING was diffenrent.. I didn't even get braxton hicks with my son until around 8 months, but yes I am sure that is what it is.. I do know what it feels like... So, ????? # 1. What should I do from here?? So I be more active.. I am not lazy, but I have slowed down a lot compared to before. The next issue I am having.. I will have to continue in order to fit it in.

I know it is not popular, kind of a classic old name, but I love it! Do you have any middle names? (No popular names please!)

I'm 33+ weeks pregnant and I feel like I'm going insane. I sleep as much as I have since I've been pregnant, but around mid-late evening, I start getting really antsy (and bored and sometimes irritable). I don't personally consider it nesting, since there isn't a desire to clean or decorate. In fact, there's not compulsion to do ANYthing specific, just a sheer and utter need to be moving around, or at least doing something besides whatever I happen to be doing at the time. Any thoughts or ideas?

I hadn't been taking my iron like I should, and now I have been for the last week, but this actually started before I got back on the iron. Could the iron be exacerbating the problem?

I am TTC so I stopped taking my birth control (Seasonale.. you only get your period every 3 months) the beginning of December. I had a regular period starting 12/11. Now just last Saturday (1/6) I started bleeding really heavy and really painful even though I wasn't expecting my period for a few days . Before I started BC I did get really bad cramps and heavy periods but not for 4 days straight, it usually tapers off. (2-3 years ago) It's been 4 days of heavy bleeding, passing clots, and cramps and I'm wondering if it's like this because it's my first full month off of birth control or a chemical pregnancy.. I don't know much about chemical pregnancies except it happens sometimes before a woman knows she's pregnant. I'm assuming this is happening from not taking BC but is it something to get checked out?
