My baby girl is almost 4 months old. I always put expressed breastmilk in the bottle and she has no problem drinking it (I only nurse for a copule of time in her first month). However, around 6 weeks ago she started to fuss and cry during feeding. I look around for nipple, and change to next stage with faster flow. She settled for a few days. However, she started to scream and cry again 2 weeks ago. Even worse is that recently few days she refuse to open her mouth, refuse to latch and refuse to suck. I keep trying, but can only get 0.5 to 1 oz in an hour. She can skip 1-2 feeding (6 to 8 hours) without crying for hunger. I feel very heartbreaking and frustrated to see her crying. I'm worried that she may lose weight if she continue to refuse her bottle. Why does she refuse the bottle that she uses to love?? What can I do??

OK.

Let's say I marry a woman who is normal but her mother has bore/had children with defects. Then I have kids with this woman. Are there any chances that I will get defective children just because her mother had defect children except her, the woman I will supposedly have children with?

I am on my 3rd month of trying to conceive after comming off the pill. Last month I had a false positive and my period was 1 week late. How long did it take you to conceive after comming off the pill, being on the pill for at least 5 years?

I have a 26 month old daughter who seems very clever ( as most people tell me) but Im not sure if she is.

She can count to 10 by 1's and 2's (she learnt it herself)
She puts her cup, plate, ect in the sink when she has finished without being asked.
She puts her toys away before she goes to bed.
She can pick out over 15 different colours.
She only needs to hear a word once or twice before she can say it.
She always says "please' and "Thank-you"
She knows the names of most farm animals and all her other favoritre animals (eg: giraffe, monkey, elephant)

She can do lots of other stuff aswell. Is she clever or can most kids her age do these things?

Tell me what you all think? My husband and I are trying to conceive. On monday I started having a weird crampy feeling in my pelvic area, sort of a mild version of pms. Thursday night I started bleeding very lightly, it was a pinkish brown color. It continued today but it isn't steady or heavy like a period, it it is extremely light and off and on. Plus my period isn't due for another couple of weeks? What could this be? No smart *** answers please, I don't need any negativity right now!

my gf told me that she was pregnant and she dint know if the baby was mine, so after she went to the doctor, and they told her how many weeks she was. she tells me that shes 100% sure its mine. but I last time we slept I remember her taking her pill, and after that we fell out for a few weeks, but doing that time she was talking to someone from her job and they ended up sleeping together (or as she puts it he took advantage of her and she dint report it as rap I guess anything after 9:00pm don't count)
so now she mad because I don't believe her and she gets upset when I told her I still would like a DNS test just to be sure.
she said I should just believe her!
I feel guilty at some points I'm not trying to deny the baby (such a cute) but I would like to know if its truly mines and she don't get how I feel about it.
so do you think I have a good reason to get a DNA test ?

My husband and I hve been ttc for a little over a year now. We went to my dr. on valentines day and found out that i have PCOS and don't ovulate(I only get my period twice a year). My doctor gave me Provera to start my cycle. I will take Clomid on days 5-9. I was wondering if any one has had any luck with Clomid. I want stories of success and failures please. And if you conceived how soon did you conceive?

So far during my pregnancy I've lost about 10 lbs. I'm 14 weeks and 2 days pregnant. But I'm still getting bigger! I don't think I could possibly be bloated THAT bad. Half my jeans don't fit, and I'm showing without a doubt. My belly is even getting harder. I was slightly overweight before getting pregnant. I'm not sure if it makes a difference.

Has anyone else lost weight during pregnancy but their belly got bigger? Or maybe know what's going on with this?

I did a flip on a bar pressing my stomach on the bar....I may be pregnant (would be only 2 weeks if I am). Could this have hurt my baby? I am really worried, and what should I not be doing during this "waiting period"??? Honest, polite answers only please! Thanks!

My baby loves sweet potatoes and they are so good for her, unfortunately, they stain everything they get on, including her clothes, bibs, my clothes, towels that have been used to wipe her face (even the rubber coating on her spoons!!!). My normal laundry stain remover that works for EVERYTHING else (a product called 'Kids & Pets') doesnt even touch these stains. Ugh, frustrating, everything is getting orange splotches on it!!! Has anyone had any luck getting sweet potato baby food stains out? I would love some help!! Thanks
