Im 37 1/2 wks preggo, 5th pregnancy, 70% effaced, 3cm dilated. Does anyone know what I can do to start labor. And if anyone else have ever had five children, will this baby be before due date or over due?

Okay, I'm fourteen and I want to model more than anything in the world for the past 6 months and i recently brought it up with my parents. They said I couldn't do it, but I figure if I combine my six months of research and advice from people who answer, they'll change their minds. It's not like I want to do it for the rest of my life, maybe for a few years, just to gain experience and explore my options a little.

I know, I know. Everyone will tell me to 'have your child professionally tested...' Which is in the works right now. We are working with our insurance company to have my 6 year old tested.
I was just wondering if any parents out there have Apserger child with selected symptoms of Aspergers Syndrome and yet were still diagnosed with it. Is it possible or do they have to have ALL the sympoms. Dont write back saying to get my kid tested, b/c I know that. My son's symptoms are 1.non-understandable speech as a toddler and slightly delayed now. 2.very overemotioinal over something minor. 3.cares 'too much' about what we as his parents think of him, he always wants to please even though we dont require it. 4. diagnosed early on with develpmntl delays.
**I know what Aspergers is, so please dont email back giving me a vocabulary lesson as far as what the symptoms are, I KNOW. And that I should have him tested, I KNOW. AND YES, I LOVE HIM FOR WHO HE IS. SO dont accuse me otherwise

hello all, i have a question, okay i asked one the other day about if anyone thought i was really close to labor and i got some okay answers. anyway im 32 weeks (by the doctor's idea) and i am already 2 cms dilated (thursday at my appointment) i had asked them to check because i was having alot of pelvic pains and pressure, anyway this evening i had some very SLIGHT cramping. not like omg it hurts cramping, but it felt like a pinching feeling in my vagina area. could this be something i shoudl call my doctor about? or is it pretty normal? if its somethign i should be concerned about i guess ill go to the hospital tonite just let me know what yall think and if i get any symptons like contractions, bleeding, or leaking fluids ill leave right away, but im just curious. thanks

I'm looking for boy names. However, they can not be considered to be "cute" my fiance wants it to be a strong name that can be used in a corporate office. I want it to be unique. Any suggestions?

Im a plus size woman and im also pregnant. Clothing companies must not think that plus size pregnant women need maternity clothes. My wal-mart, sears, JC penny, fashionbug,motherhood, or khols dont carry plus sizes in there stores. I dont understand why? Has anyone else had this problem and did you feel left out sort of bc your not a size 0-18?

I had a positive OPK on Feb 7th & 8th (possibly on the 6th also). My husband and I had sex on the 7th, 8th, 9th and 11th. On the 13th-16th I had some unusual bleeding. It was mostly Brown, some red ... came and went usually would happen in the morning then go away by the afternoon. It kind of looked like the end of a period. I have PCOS and Lupus and very irregular periods. I had a miscarriage in October of 06 and my last "period" was Nov. 22, 06. I thought maybe it was a weird period and PMS but my breasts still hurt, im really tired and I didnt bleed enough for it to have been a period, but who knows .... Also, I did a pregnancy test yesterday that came out negative.

I am confused ... Please help

anywayz, i was just wondering why some people thing that just because someone is going to become a mother, they have to give up things they enjoyed b4? like going out clubbing. don't get me wrong, my bday is going to be the one and only night i do go clubbing, and prob the 1st night i will b away from baby as well. but honestly, just bcuz im bringing another life into the world, do it really mean mine has to finish?

i am 27 weeks pregnant and i just went to the bathroom a few minutes ago, when i wiped there was stringy yellow mucus like discharge on the paper. i had to literally pull the rest of it out to get rid of it. i know you can loose your mucus plug a little at a time so i was just wondering if it was sometimes yellow. i have had loose bowels today and a low dull pain on and off in my lower left side of my abdomen. im just a little concerned due to the fact that im only 27 weeks pregnant.
