....And I have tried everything. I tried the cry it out method several times but it just doesn't work for her. She literally throws up after crying so hard. As soon as I pick her up (and yes I know you are not supposed to pick them up) she goes right to sleep. She has never been able to self soothe and is completely attached to me. She does take her nap in her crib so I know it isn't an aversion to the crib itself. She never sleeps through the night even when she is in bed with me she constantly tosses and turns. She has a soft blankie that she keeps with her but as soon as I try to leave the room she goes crazy. I am not good at letting her cry and I even have some difficulty understanding why she needs to 'cry it out'. She is my 4th child and the only one we have had this problem with. Hubby is very supportive and tells me to do whatever I think is best. Does anyone have any better way of getting her into her bed at night? Thank you in advance for your help.

OK, so I checked yesterday and my IUD fell out. My question is, did you get your period right away or when did it start? I've been thinking lately that I might be pregnant, with most of the signs, but I'm not sure when it fell out. I took 4 test and all neg. in the last month (thinking the IUD was still in), but we all know it doesn't mean I'm not preg. I've been cramping for about two weeks, but no period, so I just wanted to know how long did it take you to start?

Simple.. yes or no, and state sources or how it's a fact.

If it's just a matter of your opinion, then i don't want to hear it. i want FACTS. Sources, etc.

When my son was born, he was full term, no problems, 8 lbs 14 oz, the hospital instructed me to give him a bottle after nursing until my milk came in because he was a big boy. Now that I look back I am kind of mad that I was so pressured to give him formula. I think that I wouldnt have been so engorged that first week if i hadn't and also i would have felt much prouder knowing that I did it myself. My son is almost 6 months old and is exclusivly breastfed with no problems, and is very healthy, but i am a little mad at the hospital for pressuring me at a time when i was vulnerable because it was my first child and i didnt know how things should work. Anyone else feel like this?

My husband and I have been trying to concieve for almost a year now and we have had no luck. I ran across this website online about Ovulex and we called doctors around our area but they didnt really know much about it. Does it work or does it take just as long? We really want a baby and if it works I want to try it? Has it worked for any of you?

I'm watching my friend's 6 week old and when I was burping her after her bottle she had like a tremor type thing where her head shook but her body stayed still. It was like she was shaking her head "no" real fast and it lasted for about a minute. She was alert and her lips and skin where of normal color, but do you think I should be concerned and call her mom or the doctor to be safe? She did this about 3 minutes ago and it's not something I would consider normal.

I have a ton of new clothes and hand me downs from my 1st child and two cousins. I keep finding things that the baby has already grown out of, but missed because they got to the back of a drawer or something. Any suggestions?

I posted this here because I know a lot of mom's scrapbook. Now my question is that I do scrapbooking on my computer and just save the finished product on my computer and then add it to my website. Where can I find cute layouts, templates, embellishments and so on that I can use online, I don't want to order any because I do it all on my computer. If anyone knows I would appreciate your idea's thanks so much.

Our honeymoon was during my ovulation time nearly 3 weeks ago.
Last week I started feeling dizzy, light headed, a little sick to my stomach, and started aching everywhere. Also had odd cramps in my lower abdomen and breasts are really sore around the nipple. The cramping continued for a few more days (pms like) and have since stopped.
I have been extremely tired also. It's been really difficult for me to wake up in the morning and I've been falling asleep really early. So, the time for my period has come and gone. Instead, I seemed to have increased discharge. I took 2 preg tests 2 days ago (one at night, one the next mornig) and they were negative. I thought I would probably start yesterday and didn't and the pms cramps have since subsided. The preg tests I took were the same brand (First Response). Should I try again next week with a different brand? I feel stupid going to the DR for a blood test when I haven't had a positive urine test.

Okay, I actually have 2 questions....first, my period was late and my boobs hurt so I got a blood test done and it was positive. But I don't feel pregnant and my boobs don't hurt anymore. Is it heard of to have a false positive BLOOD TEST?
My second question is, I heard there was a way to roughly determine how far along you are by your hcG? When I had the test done it said 69.9. My appointment with the OB isn't until the 8th but I want a rough estimate now! Hah, can anyone help?
