my daughter in law has endormetriosis and was started on the lupron injections, she has since found out that she is pregnant and has been told this CAN cause damage to the fetus. She is 7 weeks so that would mean that she was about 1-2 weeks when she got the injection. Please help us find out about this

I did it for my wedding shower and kind of started a thing with my family. I kind of think it's useless (giving someone something they may never use). On the other hand, I don't mind buying something small like travel size fragrant hand lotion or something.

When you ask a question that only a women would know and a guy says something silly like "I'm a guy how would i know" or answer in a rude or ridiculous way?

MY son is 12 and my daughter is 14, they both want to live with him in this trying time. (We are divorced) I see how stressful it is for them and for their father who is always very sick and cannot parent very well at this point. I'm worried for my children and having to care for their father and themselves as well as depression, and whatever else they may be feeling. I am not sure how to handle this situation.

My husband and I both have a full time job and my sister takes care of my son while we work. He is 2 yrs and 3 months old and we are trying to potty train him already. We haven't really had a hard time because he actually loves to go "potty", the only problem is that its really hard to try and get him to use the potty when he is only with us like for 4 hours a days when we work. My sister isn't much help when it comes to teaching him and we can't afford to take him to a day care or have someone else take care of him. Any ideas on how we can manage to teach him during the time we see him during the week and weekends?

I am a new mother trying to breastfeed exclusively, but the soreness of my nipples is intolerable at times, and it prevents me from breastfeeding solely.Is there anything I can do to soothe my nipples or make them become accustomed to this discomfort.

I don't think the school is providing enough education for him. Our school ranks a 2 out of 10 in the state. Not good. 10 is best of course. Is there anything else I can do to encourage his gift of learning? Does anyone else have gifted children and do you do anything extra or do you depend on the school for the entire education. I have bought him work books for the summertime. For instance, if he goes into 3rd grade the next year I buy him the 4th grade book because the 3rd grade workbook is already too easy!

He's also talented with music. I don't have money for lessons, do you know of any web sites to help him with it. I do have a bit of musical history but that was a while back.

Just for info: He's 8, in third grade, reads at a 8th grade level and his math is at a 6th grade level.

Thanks!

Because with an only child you are able to somewhat spoil them and let them live their life

While with 2 children, they can each have a companion but you also have to deal with fairness, fights, etc...

And with 3 children, you will have a middle child, fights, fairness, more kids to buy for and pay for college...but you'll be a bigger family instilled with more family value and a more interesting time.

I have a one month old that I have been breastfeeding. Now, my right breast is noticably larger than my left one. I have been having him nurse off of the left breast all the time now and only pump my right one twice a day. I still can't get them close to even. Any suggestions?

My 19 month old daughter constantly undresses herself including her diaper! I went into her room this morning and found her naked. I lay her down for a nap and she sits in her crib and "talks" to her toys and I peeked in on her she was naked again sitting in the corner of her crib with her toys. Any advice on how to keep her clothed. She usually sleeps in pants and a shirt or shorts and top in summer. I use to put her in the zipper sleepers,but she just unzips them :)

My husbands mother had all boys, my mother had one of each, so is there a chance we can have a girl or does that mean we are most likely going to have boys too?

My husband and I are sick and tired of this bad *** kid in our neighborhood. We have lived in a gated apt complex for 1 yr 1/2 have an issue with a paticular bad *** kid! About 7 or 8 mo's ago we caught him sticking his hand inside one of our cars trying to take something, my husband went to his dad and he was disciplined. After that we kept finding stuff on our cars. White out on our SAAB, tape on our keyholes and bricks under our tires! (BAD *** KID) But since we never saw the kid do it, we could not blame him. Yesterday it snowed and my husband caught the boy throwing snow onto out cars. So he went outside and yelled at him. His mother was near by and apoloigzed, yelled at her son and made him apoligze. Now she wants to file a complaint against my busband for yelling at him>???? What would you have done in this situation? My husband said that he wanted to scare him ,so that he would stop what he has been doing.
