My 7 year old is perfectly potty trained, but lately has started doing the nastiest thing EVER. Whenever I discipline him (no dessert for lying to me, for example), he says "FINE! Whatever!" and then, later, I'll find tied up Safeway bags all over the living room with something in them. I pick them up, and I kid you not, he TOOK A SHlT and PlSSED in those bags and tied them up, & tossed them in the living room for me to find. He's been doing this for a while! I consulted a psychologist AND his doctor about this, and they just said he was testing me. He still has his normal bathroom habits. He only does this when I discipline him. What would you do if your seven year old was DELIBERATELY doing this? When I asked him why he does this, he says "Because you're an asshoIe when you take away my video games or my dessert." ( <-- Lovely language courtesy of his K-8th grade school.) I cannot deal with this, I asked him to express his dissatisfaction with me in other ways. He's not a dog.

I should've gotten my period by now, instead I just have real light bleeding, what I think is called spotting. Some other symptoms of mine are: nausea, stomache cramping, foot cramping, fatigue, headaches, frequent urination, some breast swelling that comes and goes, among others. I took a test that came out negative a few days ago. And there's of course the factor of unprotected sex a couple of weeks ago. I've been doing lots of research that tells me these are all symptoms of pregnancy, but I'm hoping for some first-hand experience from someone. Also, other symptoms I should watch out for.

Question: Can having too much sex affect our chances of getting pregnant?

Answer: No. While many couples believe they have to save the man's ejaculate until the exact moment of ovulation, that's not true. In fact some couples become so obsessed with timing sex during ovulation that they actually hurt their chances of getting pregnant. Stressing over ovulation can wreak havoc on your cycle — not to mention your marriage!

It's a myth to think you should have less sex in order to conceive. All the evidence shows that the more you have sex, the better your chances of getting pregnant. In fact, having sex often ensures that the sperm in a man's ejaculate is as healthy as it can be. Storing it up can decrease its motility, so don't be tempted to put off intercourse until you ovulate, and don't abstain for more than seven days in a row. While it's true that the density of sperm in each ejaculate diminishes with frequent orgasms, all that really matters is that there is some sperm in the woman's fallopian tubes during the time of ovulation.

My dr said I'm have either threatened abortion or incomplete abortion. (I've been bleeding heavily with clots) He said if I haven't miscarry already there is a great chance that I will soon. IF I have miscarried then some parts are stil inside of me. He said there is also a chance that I will carry the baby the full term and give birth to a healthy baby. I am going to a specialist tomorrow and get an ultrasound. By the way I'm 7weeks 4days pregnant.
I was wondering if anyone had the same experience and found out the baby was fine?

I didnt actually have sex.

On friday night I gave my boyfriend a handjob and i put my hand on his penis and then i pulled his boxers back up before he came like way before and when he came his boxers were on. It would have been a good 30-40 minutes before I went home to check my discharge (long story) like having to touch myself. Then on saturday night Im scared because i touched my boyfriend over his boxers and im afraid that I somehow got sperm on my hands and I had to go to the bathroom 10-15 minutes later to check my discharge (long story) so now im afraid I may have put something in me. That happened on Saturday. Which pregnancy test should I like use? Im so scared that i put something in me.

I am currently trying to hold my ex wife in contempt of court for not allowing me to have my kids on my visitation days. The parenting plan is thurs 6pm to sat 6pm every other week. Today, as a procedure, i went over there to ask if i can have the kids and she let me have them until 7pm tonight but is coming to pick them up and she made me sign a piece of paper saying i would not take them to my house during those hours. The reason she doesnt want them at my house is because she is accusing my stepson of molesting my son, which never happened. Anyways, the paper had the date on it and i made sure she wrote it applys to today only, and that i would stay at my mothers until 7pm when she would pick them up. Now wouldnt i still have grounds to hold her in contempt being that i didnt have them my visitation and not just one hour?

I guess my body is just playing weird tricks on me, I am not sure. I went to the restroom and had more yellow tinged mucous ( I am assuming this is a piece of my mucous plug?) Was quite a bit but not the whole thing, anyways I started getting these really strange cramps in my back and my lower stomach almost in my pelvic area. I have had about 4 so far this hour and they dont stay long and are not regular but what the heck is going on? What is my body doing?
