My husband and I are considering adopting a baby, but we are confused on why it is so expensive if there is such a great need for parents to adopt the children. AND what are the requirments of adopting?

Ok, last night when I was laying in bed, I felt a sort of cramp in my tummy. this morning when i woke up there was a very very small amount of blood in my underwear, it wasn't red it was a dull brown color, but there was nothing when I wiped. We are actually trying to conceive. Now it's later in the day and i'm still feeling a little bit of a cramp, nothing painful, it can't be pms i'm not due for another 2 weeks? Have any of you ever had symptoms like this at the beginning of your pregnancy? I'm going crazy here I could use some insight. No negativity please!

I have a very strange metal taste in my mouth! I have heard it was a pregnancy sign but I am just trying to get a personal input!! I had spotting a couple weeks back along with BAD mood swings, I did not tolerate the food of smell very well at all, started gaining a little weight, then I got REALLY sick to where I was throwing up EVERY morning and some nights it would even be really bad and I even had to call into work 1 morning which I never call in!! At first I was eating a lot and now my appetite has gotten smaller.. I was just wondering if this has happened to anybody else. I know I need to take a hpt to find out but I'm unsure when I should take one!! I did not have a period at all in January and December I had one around the middle of the month.. I had unprotected sex December 23rd, January 16th, January 23rd, and February 2nd. Which time do you think it would be more likely that I would have conceived and when should I test? & did anybody else get the metal taste when pregnant??

I am 37 weeks pregnant and every time i speak to my friends and stuff, i ask them how they are and stuff and chat about un-baby related things occasionally. This girl is about 13 weeks, and its all she talks about, she has already set up her nursery has written a list of what people have to get her, blasted her mother for getting stuff from a department store, not a baby shop, and has even dictated what kind of nappies to buy her. Most of our friends are keeping a distance from her now coz they are sick of it, but i think its a hard time for her anyway and want her to realise that she is gonna lose everyone if she keeps it up, how do i tell her without hurting her?

She's five month's old and I'm slowly weaning her. She had bad runny green poo the other day now it's thicker but with specks of blood. Is this a tummy bug?

I start my period at the very beginning of each month, but I haven't even started this month. So That makes me about 20 days late.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it but everyday my stomach gets this painful tight feeling in it. Im just completely exhausted all the time.

Ive been getting angry more easily and moody. I have headaches everyday. My fiance told me some pregnant women get acne and my face has broken out all over in the past week 1/2.

Im not sure if this has anything to do with it, but some of my favorite foods are just nasty to me and im eating foods I use to hate everyday. =/

I'm getting a test this weekend, but I wanted to see what everyone thought before I do.

Thanks everyone. =)

When we went to Sears the other day, my parents left me alone to watch my little brother (he's five) for a few minutes in the store. I've babysitted him before and I was grounded because me & my sister locked him in his room (he's really destructive, he could kill someone).

First, he went to the bathroom on one of the display toilets. When I told him to get off, he said "NO" so I pulled him off pulled up his pants. He then pulled down his pants and ran around the store with his pants down with me chasing him.

The security got called. When they asked me if I was supervising him, I tried to explain how my parents left me to look after him, but then we had to sit in the security office.

I'm now grounded for a month, and my parents, again, olny disciplined me but not my brother. Help please.

I know that drs will not let you go past 42 weeks but if they didnt induce you how long would the baby stay in there for? Does anyone have any idea? Wouldnt your body do what it's supposed to? Is it rare for women to get to 42 weeks?

I had sex on September 6 and took a pregnancy test on September 16 that came back positive. I was wanting to know if there was any chance I got pregnant and had a postive result so quick. I had had sex during the last week of August and I am thinking that is when I got pregnant because if it would have been on the 6th then that would have only gave me approx. 10 days to be producing enough hormones to show up in a pregnancy test.

my brother and i broke into our dads cabinet in the garage and spilled a bottle of something on the garage floor. we tried to clean it up but our mom found out. it smelled really bad and i'm not sure what it was. once she found out she sent us to our room. i have a bunk bed with with my brother. when my dad got home from work i could hear him yelling and he came up, opened our door grabbed my brother, yanked down his shorts and underwear and spanked him then he did the same thing to me after he was done with him. my brother is in 3rd grade and i'm in 7th. i can understand why he gets spanked but i am way to big. what can i do to not make him not do that?

my fiancee has an 11 year old brother. He hurt his fingers sledding and he got x-rays last night. Two buckle fractures in two fingers. They say that they are putting a cast on his hand? has anyone heard about this? i have never heard of casting fingers, neither has his mother. we were just wondering if anyone has any past experience. The fractures are in his fingers and they are not displaced or anything, just a simple fracture! Thanks so much, just dont wand him to spend 6 weeks in a cast if he doesnt need to! thanks, once again!
