I just received a positive pregnancy test yesterday and it is my first pregnancy. I am very excited! I do have some cramping on my left side that comes and goes. I have not had any spotting or bleeding and my only other symptom is fatigue, sore breasts and a stuffy nose. I have an appointment at my doctor tomorrow for my first prenatal.....but I was wondering if anyone would know what the symptoms of a tubal pregnancy are?....just to set my mind at ease untill tomorrow? Thank you in advance!

I used to fast regularly. The longest I've fasted was for four days at a time which I did weekly. The spiritual breakthroughs I experienced were amazing. Since giving birth, I figure I will wait until my baby is weaned, probably in about 12-15 months, but if I have another baby soon, it will be possibly a couple of years before I can fast. I also used to do colon cleansing and other detox diets. I'm not really asking about that although I could REALLY REALLY use that now, I can see it in my eyes and feel it in my energy levels. I want to know your ELABORATED opinions on fasting while breastfeeding and not just "don't do it!!!" responses. If anyone out there has done it or knows someone who's done it, your input would be so valuable! I'm not planning to do it, just wishing and wondering. My baby is 3 months, supplemented with about 6 oz. formula daily and at the top/above her weight level for her age. Thanks for your help!

We are considering becoming foster parents. We are not rich so that is why I am asking this question- not because we would be doing it because of money- how much would they pay us. would they pay for daycare and schoolbooks? What is the average amount of money that foster parents get per a child? Again, I am asking this because I want to know if we would be able to afford daycare, food, clothes, books, toys,etc.
Thank you!

I really like Wendy Bellisimo's "Starlight" and "Sir Leapsalot" themes at Babies R Us.
Can any think of a cute mural I could have an artist paint on the walls I could do to go with either of these?
Thanks everybody!!! :)

i gave birth 2 weeks ago and feel terribly blue. I feel like the world makes no sense and i cant stop thinking about dying and that i have realised i will one day as will my parents and its becoming obssesive. I feel like nothing makes sense and that there is no real point in life when we end up dead with nothing anyway.

i love my baby so much and she is keeping me smiling.

any ideas whats going on or whats happening or can anyone relate to this problem?

I was told by someone (who is a nurse) that her doctor told her to drink a beer while breastfeeding and that the yeast causes more milk production. Has anyone ever heard of this before from a doctor?

Serious answers only please. I'm very educated and aware of the dangers of drinking while pregnant or breastfeeding. Thanks.

I have a pack and play and it comes with a bassinet- I don't know if it's a good bassinet or not- It's the all playpen, bassinet, and changing table combo by Chicco- should I have the baby sleep in there or in the crib right away?

How can I help my son to do better in school. He is a freshman and he just doesn't seem to care. He doesn't turn in assignments. I ask him if he needs help with his homework and he says no but he must because he is not passing. Last year I got him a tutor because I was so frustrated. Should I do that again? I told him he could not have a drivers licence until he is getting a c average and no video games either. Is there something else I should be doing? Is there anything a doctor could do to help us? I am a lost mother.

I had a miscarriage right before Christmas. This morning i woke up extremely nauseated and dizzy. And am still not feeling the best in the world. I can't get out to get a pregnancy test because the weather is all icy and cold. So I was just wondering if it is possible for me to be pregnant this soon or if I just have the flu or something....thanks for your comments

I am (exclusively) breastfeeding my 19 week old daughter and loving it. Only problem I have is that she Only wants to nurse laying down with me. I am larger chested and in the begining when she was small and I was very tired found it a lot easier to lay down to nurse her. Now she almost refuses to nurse any other way. I am a stay at home mom and most the time its not a problem I love to snuggle with her but would like her to be more flexible so I can take her out more often because right now I can only go out right after feeding her and have to come home again when she need to eat. If we're at a relative or friend's house have to ask if I can lay on their bed to feed her. She's Stubborn! :-)

Anyone else have this problem? How did you overcome it?

Refference materials/link would be greatly appreciated if you have any.

My daughter was stillborn at 32 weeks in May last year. I had heaps of tests, scans etc and have been given no medical or physical reason for the stillbirth. Only other factors in my life at the time was a stressful fall out with my manager at work. Is this likely to be the reason or is it "just one of those things"?
