Thank everyone on here for your help. I had many many questions over the past ten months, and now have a perfect baby boy. He was born on January 24th, and was 7lbs 0oz, and 19 inches long. My delivery went VERY fast. They started inducing at 4pm and he was born at 8:47. My doctor was amaized, and guess what no tears. it was perfect. I got an epidural, but it was not affective in time, I actually got up to go to the bathroom within 20 minutes of gving birth. Thank everyone for helping me threw this crazy pregnancy, and I will be on here for more questions and answers I am sure. If anyone has any questions for me please ask. I am fresh with answers. sr22racing@yahoo.com

My friend, Ella has 3 girls, and is having a girl today. ( She is going in for a C- section right now!). She is stumped on a name. She uses all gem ( or mineral) names for her girls. She has Jade ( 6), Opal (4), and Amber ( 2). Can you think of any more? Thank you!

I am secretly terrified of giving birth! How can I get over this feeling? It scares me too death. Yet I can't wait to be a parent. Any tips from mothers who were also frightened of child birth would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

My husband and I have always seen to it that our son has the best that we can provide. We don't leave him with sitters all of the time, and he does very well in school. He's got a roof over his head, food to eat, and more importantly, he's got a family who loves him. That's the way that it should be. By the way, he's eight.

My husband and I have tried for two years to get pregnant, and we are finally six months pregnant with a daughter. Ever since my mother has found out that it's going to be a girl, she's been taking low blows at me, telling me that she hopes I'll have a miscarriage, that I don't deserve another child, and that we're terrible parents.

To make things MORE complicated, though, for the past four years, SHE'S picked up our son after school (she volunteered for this, and we thought that it would be okay until now) due to the fact that my husband and I don't get off of work in time to get there before the after-school program closes. In other words, I can't just

I had my son 6 weeks ago and I stopped bleeding at about 3-4 went to doc's at 4 weeks for post birth apt, and I had infection, i took the medication and no pain now. But I find I have a lot of clear discharge (sometimes it pours out when I stand after sitting for awhile.)and sometimes along with pink blood, expecially after intercourse, is this normal? I am almost positive I had a period a few days after I left doc, but i only bled for maybe two days and it was a tiny bit of blood. What is going on?

My niece is due to start primary school in september yet she is still in nappies and refuses to go anywhere near a potty or toilet. I am asking for advice for my sister who doesn't know what to do.
She has tried many times to train her, using bribes, reward charts etc.
She puts her in normal knickers and her daughter just pees herself everywhere, doesn't seem to notice or care that she has done it. When she needs a poo she goes into a corner to hide.
She has asked the health visitor and doctor but they are not very helpful, just suggesting things she has already done.
THe longest she has done is 3 weeks of just peeing everywhere before she gave up and put the nappies backon.
We know the little girl is not incontinent as she can hold it in when people are around and go into a corner to do it. And she doesn't have special needs, she is very intelligent in most respects.
Is there anything we can do? Will she never use a potty?
By the way she is 31/2 when she starts school she will be 4.

I was wondering if anyone has taken the HPT test, had a negative, took the test apart and found 2 lines? I know when you take the test apart you will have the control line and often a purple-blue line, but have you ever seen 2 pink lines?(or blue depending on which test you use).

I am not looking for rude comments, just want to know from those of us who have wondered about it.

I ended up finding out when I picked him up from daycare (he told me). I was very angry, and still am, that the teacher did not e-mail or call me to tell me that this had happened. I was very concerned about possible lead poisening...until I looked it up and found that all pencils today are made from graphite. My question is, do you think it is extreme for me to send the teacher an e-mail or call her to tell her that I think I should have been notified when this happened. The other child, I heard, did get sent to the principal's office and I believe his parents were called. I am just really angry about this situation. Am I over-reacting?

My last email got removed for some reason!!

I slept with a guy on the Thursday night without using protection after starting a fresh pack of pills on the Wednesday night. I took the one on Thursday night 5 hours earlier than the one on the Wednesday night, and then took my Friday one 5 hours later. Im on microgynon 30 and take 3 packs of 21 pills in a row as the doctor prescribed this due to painful periods. I have been taking the pill for 15 months now and it has worked fine. I started to bleed a little a week before I was just to finish taking my pills and have had the odd bit of spotting on and off for the last few days. I have now finished the pack of pills and my period is due to properly start today. Could there be a possibility im pregnant? I havent really had any other symptoms. Im having cramping but thats it, and im eating lots and lots of biscuits but that maybe due to time of the month

Has anyone ever experienced this? My daughter absolutely hates to be laughed at. I mean, all the time, even if something is funny. She gets really upset and angry. She is always very self conscious when someone laughs. I can not count how many times she asks why are you laughing? Or if someone laughs at something cute she has done while out in the public, she will ask me "why is this person laughing at me?" Is this normal? I'm really concerned that she has or is going to have some sort of complex. She's only 4 - you would think a child likes it when you laugh. Anyone else have a child that absolutely hates it when people laugh?
