what is the worst tantrum you ever saw in public? the worst tantrum i saw was at cvs this girl who looked like she was about 4 or 5 really wanted these lisa frank pencils she was crying and screaming soooo loud at the top of her lungs. she wouldn't let go of it. her mom was saying give it to me and i'll put it back. she continued to scream. my mom told me some people shouldn't have children. another bad tantrum i saw was this boy throwing himself on the floor at target.

My 11 month old son recently has had watery (really loose) stools for the past 2 days. I know that it is diarrhea, but I don't know how to treat it. Should I feed him the same? If so, do I need to stay away from solid foods and just give him milk? What about Pedialyte? Should I give this to him. This is my first baby, and he has never had diarrhea before, so I am new to this. Please help me if you can.

by how many weeks you are pregnant, are the weeks counted from the first day of your last period, like at a OBGYN or is it from conception?

I am currently 29wks 3 days pregnant with my first child. In 8wks i am going to commence maternity leave for a year.

I am looking forward to a few weeks of being at home before baby comes (assuming baby isn't early) - i could really do with some rest and relaxation! lol. But i'm a bit daunted by being at home for a year.

I have always been very work-orientated. I enjoy the mental stimulation and i'm accustomed to the long hours and stress that comes with my work. Pre-pregnancy my work hours could be anywhere between 60-75hrs p/wk. As i've progressed in my pregnancy i've reduced them significantly to between 40-50hrs p/wk due to tiredness!

Thinking about being home for a year.. well i worry about adjusting. I know it won't be easy (looking after a newborn) but the mental stimulation won't be the same either.

How did you, or are you, adjusting to leaving a demanding fulltime job to staying at home to raise your baby?

Thanks alot!

I was asked by our church to pump and bring bottles to church and we will never go back. That is the last straw.
Women in public tell me to stop descreetly feeding my child under a cover! They either worry that their disloyal men will break their necks trying to sneak a peek, worry that their uneducated kids will ask them what I'm doing, worry that they themselves did something wrong by not breastfeeding and feel guilty, or worry that, eventhough they have clevage hanging out and have painted themselves and their tiny, cheer-leading outfit clad, daughters up like two dollar prostitutes, I might send "the message" that I have breasts. Lol Hilarious. They go to the beach in their bra and panties, but I'm offensive draped in a tent?
Los Vegas tells women not to breastfeed ??? Victoria's Secret tells women not to breastfeed while they display mannequins in thongs and push-up bras?
I'm motivated now. Where do I protest?

For the first two days of my period I am so light (barely spotting) that I hardly even need to use a panty liner, but then the third and fourth day I flow normally and then it dies down. So, my question is when do I count as my first day of my cycle? the first day I spot or the first day I flow? I'm trying to get pregnant (it's been 7 months now) and don't know when to determine for ovulation.

I'm 19, I don't have much of a passion to do anything with my life other than becoming a husband and father. I don't want to be a doctor or a lawyer or anything like that. I'd be content with just a manuel labor job and some benefits so I can provide. I have a fiancee. Building a home and a family is all I want to do. I understand the responsibilities and all that so please don't give me a lecture. But I mean, is it "normal" for a 19 yr old to want a family and want to provide of that family?

My daughter is turning twelve and we are having a bowling party for her. For the first time for us, it is a mixed gender birthday party where she invited 10 friends, 5 girls and 5 boys. I'm unsure of how to handle the goody bags, what are good ideas to include for both boys and girls of this age? Are they too old for goody bags? What should I do instead?

The other day she freaked out because she saw that my arm had 8 cuts on the underside. She knew that I had done it to myself and she freaked out about it. She had me backed into a corner and then I started crying. I lost it. We talked for about two hours straight,and she thinks that i suffer from depression,even though I assured her that I was fine.
She wanted me to go to a doctor,but my father told her not to send me to one because it would do more harm than good.
I want her to stop worrying about me so much. This happened last night and she is still really upset.

For several months now, i've been having my period every other month, i'll skip a whole month, but i'll still have my period on the 22 at the end of the month when i do have my period. How do I know when i'm ovulating? I've been told that you ovulate half way between your period, so would that mean that I ovulate when i'm suppose to be having my period? Or still the 14 days after my period. This month, if we go by ovulating every 14 days, i had sex with my partner and a few days later too. So would there be a chance that i'm pregnant now?
