When told you were possibly having a too big baby did you choose to induce early or just let nature take its course. Good outcome? Would you make the same choice if you had it to do all over again?

Should I trust my mother in law's house?
I feel uncomfortable leaving my daughter over my mom in laws house. She's have younger children, a boy who 11 and a girl 13. Before I was married I'm pretty sure I saw the girl (8 at the time) with her hand down her cousins(a boy, 5 years older than her) pants. To me this is not normal. I told hubby and he told his mother and he said she handled it (whatever that means). The girl has told her mom that she was touched unappropriately before, not sure if anything was done about it. Now I am uncomfortable with my 2 year old and my 5month old going over their house alone. I have bad dreams of daughter being molested over there. hubby is not worried and doesn't think anything will happen. what do you think?

I mean, did you have symptoms, or anything? Or, did it just hit you as a surprise when your results came in?

LMP on 11th Dec 2006. Had sex on 19th Dec 2006. Still no period.
Home pregnancy test done on 19/01/2007 & 23/01/2007 shows negative. Is it possible that I'm pregnant and its not showing? Has anyone of you tested negative and later found out that u r pregnant after all? I'm really hoping that I'm pregnant...

My daughter is in the 2nd grade and she has a little friend that is a boy and she has been having lunch with him. She talks about him a lot and smiles when she talks about him. I have talked to her telling her that he is just a friend and that she is too young. Yesterday she tells me that she wants to get him something nice for him for Valentines Day and that she hopes he likes what she gets him. Im standing there ready to explode but I cant do that because then she won't tell me anything I just told her that he is going to get what all her friends are going to get Valentine cards. How would you deal with this situation?

I haven't had a period since May and I had 2 positive HPT's in July, and a positive blood test 4 days later, and my belly has gotten big and every time I go to the doctor they give me pictures of a baby. Could I be pregnant?

Okay, I know I wasted my 5 points here, but it's better than screaming at all the girls that keep asking the same question over and over and over. Do they know how ridiculous some of them sound?

Where can I find a time out chair, other than the "fun rocking time out chairs".

My idea of time out is not brightly colored and toy-ish looking chairs and that seems to be all I can find online!

Any help?

Well I have a one year old boy and I am pregnant, due in september. I plan on keeping the newborn in a bassinett for the first couple of months and then I was thinking about putting the baby in the crib that my one year old is currently using. Do you think 2 years old is to young to have a toddler bed if it has side rails? Should I think of a different plan? Also I was wondering how am I going to deal with a newborn and a 21 month old? Is it hard? I am just a little nervous and would like some advice.

I am about 7 weeks pregnant and everything seems to be going alright. My husband and I had intercourse last night and after we were done, we used a towel to clean up the mess. I have never had spotting before, but there was a little tint of brown on the towl from the left overs. Is there something wrong? Should we take it easy?

NOW, read this question very carefully and be sure to answer only if this applies to you.

I am NOT asking if you think ear piercing is good or bad, I'm asking IF you have your baby's ears pierced WHEN did you do it and how was the experience for you and your baby? Where did you have it done? Did they do both ears at once or one at a time?

And I might add that simply because I am asking this question does not imply that I am piercing my baby's ears nor that I plan to, it's simply a question so please take it at that.

Thank you in advance for sharing your story

Is it true that when u are pregnant and u have a child they know if what u are carrying is a boy or girl? For example I am pregnant dont know the sex yet,but my 6 yr old girl thinks im having a girl and my son who is 1 1/2 cannot stop from climbing on me and everytime he does he lifts my shirt and lays his head on my belly,he kisses,hugs and sleeps on the belly all the time..does this mean i could be carrying a girl,since boys dont like boys? I heard this before and was wondering if its true..(he does this with my sister who is carrying a girl but he just always kisses her belly) any suggestions?

Since they already have a VERY good idea we are planning this:

Should we tell our parents of destination wedding upon first meeting; they never met before .... tell them of our plans at first meeting?

My fiance and I have recently decided to have a destination wedding and not invite ANYONE, including our parents.

My parents divorced over 20 years ago and still HATE each other. Both have re-married since then. My fiance's parents are still married and would really like us to have a TRADITIONAL wedding, as would my mother and my grandmother.

While they have an idea of our plans, we are thinking of having them (my mother and stepfather and his parents) meet for the first time for dinner and announce our wedding plan.

We think that they are less likely to get overly upset in the presence of future in-laws, and this will allow them to let the news settle in for a little while.

Is this an ambush to spring it on them like this, or a good idea, so we don't get a guilt trip?

I need some ideas for his Valentine box- they are going to choose the top three for prizes, and parents are allowed to help (Since my son is only 2) does anyone have any cute ideas for his age that I could use? I don't really want to win, just don't want to embarrass him.. Do you know of any links I can look at for ideas?

I have been nauseous for about 4 days, tired, trouble sleeping, lower abdomen feels like it stretching/widening, urinating frequently, constipated,breasts feel bigger, and dizzy. I have heard that you can be pregnant and still have a period, but I am unsure. I have taken a test and it is negative. The whole month before my period began, I felt like I was pregnant (swollen boobs, tired, etc)
