My mom said right before I go into labor the baby will get really still. Has anyone found this to be true? My baby is extremely active.

Thanks!

Is it wrong to have a lot of children if you aren't going to be able to buy brand new clothes for them, or name-brand food, or separate bedrooms for them?

my brother in-law wants to do a vasectomy after he has his first baby which would be in a couple of weeks. He says his insurance covers it and that if in the future he wants to have another child he'll just reverse it. IS IT THAT SIMPLE? Would the insurance cover it at 100%?

My daughter is four and a half and I tall for her age. I am always getting stupid comments from people, like isn't she to old to want that (little people) or isn't she to old to be acting like that (just acting her age) and the rudest comment we have ever recieved was the other day, my daughter was looking at a book in line at a store and someone said, wow, she really should be reading by now! I get upset, but usually just ignore it, however my poor daughter ends up getting very embaressed & crying. I try to explain to her some people are just silly (nice word). But what can I say to people to put them in there place without blurting something stupid, any advice welcome!

Okay, screw pregnancy. I have another question. In the movie Gladiator, when Maximus' son is trampled by the horse, what is the location that that scene was filmed in? (The road with the trees on both sides of the road that the horses come marching down.) I know I asked this in pregnancy but the boys in the movie section are sleeping...Please help and I will answer some pregnancy questions (I am an OB).

My husband had the bedroom door shut, but it wasn't locked. It was time for our daughter to go to bed and she went in to tell him goodnight and saw him watching porn. He jumped up and just couldn't get it off the screen fast enough. I asked her what she saw and she described what was on the screen. I am devasted and so worried about her. He feels stupid but also says im over reacting and that she will be fine. Am I over reacting? I know he didn't do it on purpose I'm just so worried that my daughter's innocence may have been lost or something. Please help.

my son is 7 yrs old and he is one of the top 5 students in his class. except he likes to talk a lot during class, I have tried different things and nothing seems to work. I am a single parent and that maybe part of the problem (maybe). I hate being the disciplinarian all the time because it seems like every time he sees me I have to punish him. he keeps on getting in trouble with his teacher and I talked to him and he agrees not to talk, but the next week he comes home with another bad behavior note. any suggestions on how to deal with this problem... I talked to his teacher about his academic standards and she feels like he's fine and it all has to do with his age and it's normal. I'm running out of ideas...

Babies born with Milk Soy Protein Intolerance (MSPI) cannot tolerate infant formula that contain milk, soy or a derivative and thus are forced to use expensive formula that most insurance companies refuse to cover, even though the formula is used as a prescribed treatment. Formula that MSPI babies take, e.g. Elecare, Vivonex can run anywhere from $35 - $50 per can. These cans last 3 days at the most. If you are lucky you can sometimes find cans for sale on Ebay. Some parents are forced to use credit cards or take out loans to cover the costs of the formula. When our son had MSPI the formula costs alone were over $4000.

my daughter just turned 13 months old. i didn't think anything of this before until i recently saw a milestone chart. my daughter never points to anything. ever. she does everything else she should. walks, babbles....all the time, she says mama and dada, she usually directs it towards us. she doesn't ever try to get us to help her with anything either. this is our 1st so not really sure if she is too young to be worrying yet? anyone w/ experience have any ideas?

ok, here is the deal, i am with a great guy and he claims my two little boys and they call him dad. their sperm donor doesnt have anything to do with them, and the last time he contacted me was last may, on my oldest sons 2nd b-day. i dont want anything to do with him and the boys dont know him. he also owes child support, but he has skipped town. if he was to start paying the child support and wanted to see my boys, should i let him? i would prefer not to because he does drugs and loves to drink. he has never changed their diapers or given them baths and hasnt done anything compared to the guy i am with. so opinions are wanted!!
