I was wondering if there is any truth to the old wives tale that if you have alot of heartburn during pregnancy, your baby will have alot of hair? I havent had any until the past week ( Im 33 weeks along ). Does that mean my unborn daughter is growing hair?

My period ended on Jan. 17th. The last time I went to my GYN, he told me that he suspected I had PCOS. I have never been officially diagnosed with it. I read on the internet that sore nipples and breasts are a symptom of PCOS. I just don't know if I have PCOS or is there a chance I'm pregnant. I am married, have 1 other child and do not use any protection. I have been TTC for over a year with no success. HELP!!!

This question is for parents. I know every book and magazine says that newborns should only have breastmilk or formula for the first four to six months. But I was wondering when did you actually start giving your babies things like jar baby food and rice cereal?

My husband and I plan on getting pregnant in September -December. I have now started counting my days, but I am not sure how to know when I am ovulating. I am going to try to use the shettles method (we want a girl, already have 2 boys), so I have to know exactly when I ovulate in order to do what the book says. Can somebody please help me on this and give me some tips on how to count my days to find out exactly when i am ovulating. Thanks!

Why is it that my parents treat me differently than my brother? We are only two years apart, I'm 15 and he's 17, but they treat me like I'm still in middle school when he does whatever he wants without any questions asked. but when it comes to me goin out an doin things they are always so skeptical. Also, they demand way more from me than they do from him. Like,they only accept straight A's from me but they let him just slide by with c's in every class. Another thing, why am I the one that has to watch my little bro while he goes out and does whatever the hell he wants? I don't get anything in return for it either. I've confronted my parents about it and they just give me some excuse like "your the responsible one" or "you don't do anything else for us so you can consider this your chore" but that second one makes no since because my other brothers don't do a friggin thing! I mean for god's sake; my older bro never even comes home! Please tell me what I should tell my parents!

I decided to find out and I am having a boy! THis makes things a lot more complicated and expensive for me(I live in a 2bed and I have a little girl already) but I am nevertheless really excited!
I have 2 questions:
1. In your experience how does raising boys differ from raising girls? What do I need to be prepared for?
2. I have three baby names so far, Ethan, Jude and Aaron. Anyone got a favourite out of those or can you suggest some more?

I have always loved the first name Jill but am getting some flack (We don't like Jillian so that's not an option). I like Jill Elizabeth, Jill Victoria, or Poppy Jill for my daughter and would love to call her Jilly! Thoughts?

My son in 28 months old and he is still glued to his pacifer. I can not break this child from this habbit! His Dr. says that he will be okay until he turns three, but i think he's a bit old to still have it. Any suggestions out there on how to wean him?

ok to start off i was given the progesterone challenge by my doctor a.k.a provera challenge and about 2 or 3 days after stopping i got my period, not only did i get my period but it was really heavy and i had alot of cramping I'm not sure if that has anything to do with not having my period for a year befor the challenge, anyways my doctor told me i should try using progesterone cream, my husband and i would also like to conceive..My question is if i'm not sure when or if i'm even ovulating can progesterone cream help me with that, and when would be good to use the cream without interupting my ovulation and how long am i suppose to use it for...I heard it's either good to help with pregnancy but also gets in the way for conception to occur. So i am not wanting to use it befor or during ovulation but after ovulation. also i have had quite a few miscarriages already due to low progesterone. when would be a good time in the cycle to start using the cream and for how long. thanks

Ok... it's driving me Nut's!
Everyone keeps saying it's just me... But things taste different to me.

Like KFC (before they decide to change the oil.) Doesnt taste the same.

HoneyCombs really messed up a good thing. I had a bowl one week and then the next I got a new box and it said they were smaller. But it was like they were completly different... they taste goey and soaked up the milk differently.

Then we got the Pink Breast Cancer Awarness M&M's for my shower and I was helping seperate them and put them in Tulle. I ate a few... and Yuck they tased spicy or something... it was weird.

I noticed a few other things too.

Is it just that Im Preggo or are these foods different???
I wanna know.... If it is me will my tastes come back to me after the baby is born?
If it's not just me... will you tell my Hubby Im NOT Crazy?

I always get sore breasts a week before my cycle, but this time they haven't stopped hurting since my last one. I am not suppose to get it till the 30th and I have had this soreness for almost 4 weeks now. I haven't noticed any other signs that point me to being pregnant but at the same time I really haven't been looking for them, till a couple of days ago. I took a pregnancy test the other day and it said that I wasn't pregnant, so I don't know if I should go by that or wait a couple more days and try again.
Thanks for your time and help.

(and this is a little gross...but...) i've had a lot of gas. i dont have a cold, and its been this way for about a week and a half...i WANT to be pregnant, but i've also done my best not to trick my body into having the symptoms when i'm really not preg at all...i'm just sick of feeling like crap. what do you think?

My periods recently have been all mixed up as i was til about 3-4 months ago on the pill, my period was 30 days, last month it was 26 and not this month it has been 31 so far.
Wen i go to the loo to do a number 1 i wipe myself no blood, nuffin on my liner, i decided i would insert a tampon just to makesure i didnt bleed when i was out, stupidly i inserted it wrong, wen i took it out just on the end was slight reddy/pinky colour, then wheni inserted another one, there was a darkred colour on it(bout size of a 5pence piec) not a lump, just thats hows much blood there was.
I dont know whether to class this as im on myperiod or what? i would not have known that i was bleeding of any sort if i was not to put the tampon in.
I do not bleed when i go to the toilet, as i said above i would not have known of any bleeding if i wernt to put the tampon in.
Any Ideas

My son is 2 months and is rolling over. Not all the time but at least once every two days. I thought my husband helped him the first time until i saw it for my self. Is he too young for this?
