Pregnancy & Parenting - 7 February 2007

Im 15. My guy friend is 16. He is truly amazing. Sometimes I feel we are more then just friends. He comes up to me all the time and will talk to me. Like randomly comes up. We poke, tickle, hug, and talk to each other. I can tell him anything and he says I'm one of his only true friends. He tells me all the time that I'm special and amazing. He will stroke my arm and play with my hair. We have band class together and he moved to sit next to me. During all day rehersals he would push his way to sit next to me. I feel very comfortable with him. We went to the mall with our friend Katie and he followed me around the whole time. Katie and I separated and he came with me. We were even holding hands for a little. He wants me to come over his house and hang out with him. Im so comfortable with him and theres never a dull moment. Were always cracking up and having a good time. We can have serious conversations too. Someone asked if we were dating and we both responded no. Whats going on?

How do you teach a 5 yr old to sleep in his own bed??
I've made the mistake of letting my 5 yr old sleep with us since he was born....I realize my stupid mistake now, so spare me the "I told you so's". We have bought him a twin bed and can't get him to sleep in it all night. I have to go in and wait for him to go to sleep, then sneak out to my own bed. He wakes up inevitably at some point in the night and cries for me, at which I have to go back in there and start all over. Not getting much sleep. Help? Anyone else go thru this? Any advice would be appreciated.

Just wondering if anyone still has something that was special to them in childhood and will be passing it along to their own child?

When i was about six months old i was given a soft toy (a mouse).
It was my favourite toy ever. I carried that toy around like a baby through out my whole childhood (and being the creative child that i was i named it "Mousey"! lol).

I'm 26 and i still have that loveable toy! lol. Still in pretty good condition too (given how old it is). I've washed it and it is now sitting in my baby's nursery - awaiting the arrival of its new owner.

Did you pass something along to your child? Or am i just strange for holding on to a toy for all these years?! LOL

My cousin is having a baby, and wanted to make a carseat cover for her. The cover that I am talking about is the one that goes over the top of the car seat, you can either zip it or there is a hole at the top. If so is there a pattern that I can purchase? And what are the dimensions for the fabric that I will need?.

Im 15 weeks pregnant, last doctor appointment was on the 31st and my blood pressure was a lil high but I had just been scared out my mind before my appointment (a pratical joke by my baby's father) and the nurse had asked me did i rush to the appointment asking because it was a lil high so i just associated it with the scare. But anyway to get to the question, I have been having pains in my side the past couple of days and very bad headaches, I have one now thats out of this world. I have also been feeling really sick to my stomach and I thought the headaches were hunger pains and I've been eating and nothings changed, I have also been getting alot a rest but still nothing. I was just wondering if this has happened to any of you mothers out there and if so what was wrong?

My dad is leaving NJ and going to FL for 4 days. I only live with him. I guess I mentioned it to my mom (they're divorced) and she called up my guidance counselor at school. I'm perfectly fine with it and my mom knew this, so I don't understand why she would go behind my back and do that... but... my guidance counselor said she "had" to call DYFS even though I told her my neighbor's (who have a clear view of my house/driveway/everything) would be watching me and basically stalking and my grandma would be coming by almost daily. DYFS called my dad and said they "wouldn't reccomend it" but they couldn't do anything. My dad still mentioned "if DYFS comes by..." I want to know- is it legal?

I am eighteen, and I want to get pregnant. The only problem is, I am bipolar, ADD, ADHD, OCD, and I have Tourette's, and I take medications such as Lithium, Strattera, and Risperdal. I know that there are some serious risks involved with that, I'm not daft, but this is something I really want to do. Advice??

My partner and I wish to commence trying to have a child now as I have been off Depo for 18 months now and we have done all our planning taking vitamins and folic, giving up smoking in that time to stop any body cravings and so on in the hope my baby will be in a good environment for the next 9 months.

I am normally on a 28 day cycle and just want to clarify the best ovulation day.

thanks all

He has reflux so I'm slowly putting in more milk and less formula. But I have 4 cans of formula left but the doctor said to put him on milk now. How bad would it be if I gave him both?

She is 2 years old and I was told to put her on an iron suppliment vitamin. Well, she hates them. So I was wondering, does anyone know of any iron rich foods that would help? She will eat just about anything.(except vitamins of course). Thanx in advance.

My son is 6 months old and i noticed a few days ago that he has little bumps under his chin. they are not red or irritated and he doesn't seem to be bothered by them. Anyone knows what it could be??? possibly a rash from drooling or maybe an allergic reaction???

We are looking for something out of the ordinary with some kind of meaning. Perhaps a character from a story, someone from history, or an author. Any suggestions will be helpful! Thanks!

I am two weeks late for my normally regular period. I have a funny feeling in my moth and stomach that is really hard to describe. I get hungry a lot, but i fill quickly. I run to the bathroom twice as much now. I took maybe 4 HPT, and one dr urine test . They were all pregnant. Becuase I went to a free clinic, the doctor would not take me seriously and told me that there was no way that i was pregnant, so i demanded a blood test. I get the results tomoro, but i just wanted some female opinions. Please no smart remarks- only females wiht exp. thank you

I have a 15 yo and we have had problems with him in the past for Marijuana, but today he was arrested at school for PI and was high as a kite on Xanax. This was probably the worst experience of my life - he was passed out it the drunk tank and he didn't even seem to know us. He was actin like he was drunk, and it was really scay. I just lost it. I am scared to death and don't know what to do. I don't want him to end up dead, but I don't know where to turn. I hear this is the new "cool" thing that kids are doing. He needs help. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I appreciate any input
