My sister wants to name her first son who will be arriving in April Alezae....Now i love the sound of the name and the fact that it's unique the problem is that there is and Alcahol bottle called Alize same prounciation but the different spelling..If it were not for the Alcahol (which is the problem).. we would defiantly use it... Due to that it sounds cheap/stupid you know what i mean ..What do you guys think? Whole name will be Alezae Alexus Williams. If not do you have any unique suggestions?

I am going nuts!
My son is over 3 and a half and has been fine going for a wee without accidents for at least a year now, in fact he skipped the potty altogether and went straight to using the loo, however, try as we might, no matter what we do, we just can't get him to poo anywhere but in his pants. I don't understand because he gets upset when he has an accident and has to be cleaned up but nothing seems to discourage him from doing it, he'll sometimes even blatantly denied he's had accident even though the room stinks!! We have tried EVERYTHING anyone (including our health visitor) has suggested, and nothing seems to work. Even when we set him on the loo he'll say he doesn't want to then 5 minutes later he'll have done it in his pants. I'm at my wits end! Please if anyone has any CONSTRUCTIVE advice I would be very grateful. He starts school next January and I have visions of having to send him in nappies as there's no sign of improvements!

My four year old daughter eats her meals unbelievably slowly, sometimes sitting with a mouthful in her mouth for ages and ages. She eats the meal eventually but yesterday it took her an hour to eat a slice of toast?
Its really frustrating cause you keep reminding her but nothing happens - any advice?

i've been married for one year and plus, and me and my wife were using withdrawal method for nearly ten months, we did not encounter any problems, but since it is not adviced to use withdrawal method we decided to buy latex condoms and use them since pill and most other methods causes weight problems and we do want children in the future. People says Withdrawal method is not good, and not effective but i think Withdrawl method is pretty effective, I read a article and it says most of the sperm in pre *** is dead, and little amount of sperm is not enough to get pregnant. Thats why, when a person is having one testicular removed for some health reason, that person can't make a girl pregnant. So if that much accuracy is required to get pregnant, Don't you think that Withdrawal method is pretty effective than we think when practiced properly? What does everyone think? how to increase the effectiveness of withdrawal method? will keeping an eye on ovulation and using withdrawal is effective?

at the moment it doesn't seem to be too serious, but i'm concerned about it becoming worse. i was bullied at school, and i don't want my son to suffer the same. the main problem is down to one of the other little boys. as in all classrooms, there is usually one boy / girl who is the leader - very self-confident, loud, and likes to be 'in charge' of the other kids. this little boy has decided that he doesn't like my son, and therefore thinks that non of the other kids should like him either. as a result, my son is being left out of their games and being called names. my son is a nice boy who plays well with other kids and shares. the only reason why he's being singled out is down to this other little boy. normally, i wouldn't hesitate in speaking to the teacher about this, but i have the added problem of his teacher being the mother of this other little boy. how can i deal with this? i don't want this problem to continue when he goes to primary school in september.

Quick question for women who are pregnant or have been pregnant. Did any of you experience one boob a lot more sore than the other? I am finding they are both tender and sometimes nipples feel on fire(!) but it is always that the left one is much more tender than the right? Is this normal?

I have been trying to concieve sine november, doing all tests to check ovualtion and charting temp with no luck. I have been on the pill for several years with a few gaps to due to problems. I did not have a period at one point for a year so went back on the pill and then when decided to come back off in novemebr as ttc. I am now having reg periods 33 days apart but nothing and seem to of tried everything and have tests from doc for me and partner with no issues apparently. How long did it take you to concieve? I am a healthy 26 year old. Also just bought fertilaid has any one tried this? Sorry about all the questions just very impatient.

cheeky behaviour from your child. Any advice how to stop mouthy behaviour--aside from corporal punishment? Really pushes my button to hear long drawn out "Sorrrorrry" While giving you that look, parents you know what I mean?!
