Pregnancy & Parenting - 4 February 2007

my son is 13 he wets his bed, and pants during the day and night. i took him to the doctors last night. he is ok. the doctors did alot of testes on him. and they could find nothing wrong. i am sick of wet clothes and bed sheets.since there is nothing wrong would it be ok to put him in diapers. the doctor said he is acting out by wetting on purpous. since he does that i want to put him in diapers and treat him like a baby. i figure if he wants to actlike a baby then he most defenatly can be treated like one. thats fine right. i figured why put pull ups on a 13 year old if he wets his pants on purpous. why not diapers and rubber pants.

When you go out to eat, how old does your baby have to be to sit in the high chair? Currently, my baby is six months and a couple weeks. He sits up very well, but is he too young to sit in one?

Just took a test yesterday-positive, I think i'm roughly 6-7 wks. I started spotting just a little and have some cramps. I'd been do a very strenious excercise routine the past month and i had to take a painkiller for a kidney problem i have about week ago. I've had a misscarriage before so i'm alittle worried w/this one.

ok i haven't had sex for the past 2 months, i was on the pill a month before but when i got my period i took one active tablit from the pack and then decided to stop usin the pill. so that means last months (end of december) i got my period twice ( i no shouldn't have done that).

anyway now its into feb and i haven't got my period. is it because of the pill or could i be pregnant even though the last time i had sex i was on the pill and that was 2 months ago.

if i were 2 months pregnant would i be sick?

I have been scanning Baby Names for the last couple of days. And I've seen posters get nasty about the names and the spellings, like these people were naming them. They are asking for opinions, not a death sentence. And for those who think that names are all about ENGLISH spelling, not everybody on here is f/ the US. Think about that when judging other people's spellings and pronounciations!!! Then maybe get a life!!!!

The other day, I was washing my car, and my neighbor was gossiping with another neighbor, while her 1-year old baby was left unattended dancing and running around the street. Then, the baby tripped, and started rolling on the floor. To my horror, a car appears, and nearly hits the baby. Luckily, I ran in front of the car, and it wasn't speeding. I told the mother to learn to be a better mother, and guess what she tells me? "Mind your bussiness, this is my baby" Not a single thankyou. I wanted to slap that biotch smack on the face, and call a social worker.

I tryed an ovulation kit this cycle, but never detected an LH surge. My husband and I had sex the day before I had marked may calandar for ovulation. But I never got the LH surge to tell me I ovulated. I am supposed to have my period today. I have noticed alot of opaque runny discharge. I have also been sensative to a couple of things smell wise that normally wouldn't bother me. I am not looking for to many signs as I don't want to be one of those that asumes the headache and breast tenderness is pregnancy every time. I also don't want to run out right now to get a test either. I would like to wait a week since my period so were so irregular, but I was currious if anyone had an opinion on my current state.

My 2 month old son has been constipated for a few weeks, but we discovered that he is lactose intolerant and resolved the constipation by changing his formula. Now he is afraid to poop...when he has the urge, he will clench his little cheeks together and hold it because he is afraid it will hurt again. Does anyone know how i can get him to relax and just let it out?

Tomorrow is my 1st Dr's appointment. What kind of paper/documents are they going to want? and I should bring? Also if and when they do an ultrasound to check the baby's heart, can I eat/drink before going for my ultrasound? I heard before theirs not suppose to be any food in the belly, to see the baby clear.

My daughter is 2 months old and has started chewing on her fingers, leaving them swollen, and red. I've tried putting mitts on her but she somehow manages to pull them off. Is there anything else I can try?

What I really need is tips on how to stop these kids from fighting and yelling. I'm babysitting for a 10 year old girl and a 12 year old boy. They fight, yell, and make threats to break each other's treasured belongings. They are easy to babysit while separated but when you put them together all they do is fight.
I don't know what to do because there are nearly old enough to be left home alone so they don't feel like they need me so they have little respect for me. They haven't done anything too bad yet, but I'm afraid they are getting worse. I was hoping to get better at controling them before that happpens though.

My sister and I are very close, and she won't get offended or tell me to mind by own bussiness if I tell her about her baby. She also wants to know how to stop her baby from being so violent.

My daughter tells me to shut up at times,
other times she'll call be stupid or idiot.
I don't know how to handle this, I've been
trying to ignore it but it's starting to get to me.

What should I do?

I know they say not to cosleep, not to put blankets or stuffed animals in bed with your baby, not to smoke around your baby, etc. How did they come up with this? My cousin did none of the above and his daughter still died at 3 months because of SIDS. I coslept with both of my daughters and neither of them died of sids. How do they know for sure though?
