**A little bit gross, beware..

I am 27 weeks and have been getting yellow stains in my underwear. It looks like urine stains, but smells really bad. There is no itching, and last time at OB they said I did not have a yeast or a UTI. I shower, put fresh underwear on with a fresh panty liner and within the hour, the liner has the stains and it smells...

Could this be amniotic fluid? Anyone else experience anything like this?

She has been ptty trained since november, and I have shown, helped and explained to her how to wipe, and why it is so imprtant to wipe well, from front to back, and we wash our hands when we are done. She complains that her "pookie" hurts, and won't let me wash it without a fight, and she won't let me look at it or touch it. What should I do, could it be a yeast infection, and if so, how do I treat it? I am afraid to take her to the doctor, because if she won't let me touch it, she won't let them, and once she had to have a catheter in the ER, and she threw a mighty fit, because I have taught her so long that strangers aren't suppose to touch her private area, and she told the nurse she wasn't alowed to touch her. It was the most horrible pain I ever felt, because there was nothing I could do to help her, or calm her.

My husband and I have been TTC for four months now. I had my tubes untied 5 mths ago and I am 31 years old. My period came on time (Feb 24th), but only lasted one day. I didn't notice anything different about the flow - only that it just stopped after one day. I have had no spotting, bleeding or discharge of any kind. My periods have always lasted 4 - 5 days and my cycles are always 27 days. I had my annual pap smear one week before my period and it came back normal. My question is...has anyone else found out that they were pregnant after having a period that lasted only one day? I have two other children and I had no bleeding at all in early pregnancy. Because I had my tubes untied there is some concern of tubal pregnancy - so the early I find out that I am pregnant the better chance of catching a tubal pregnancy before it can cause damage.

I got my exgf pregnant and treated her very bad afterwards, I broke up with her then began a new relationship. I ended up getting involved with her neighbors daughter and married her, now my wife is pregnant with my child. My child's mother put up with all my BS for the sake of our son, I would hardly give her any money and gave her a very hard time about everything she did. I eventually crossed the line and the police got involved, I have no issue with saying it was all my fault. She is a great mother and has turned her life around, I like to think my tough love had something to do with it. I also have no job. She works for a major company and I hear that she is dating a stock broker. I am oddly bitter and jealous. I have not tried to contact her in 6 weeks and am consdering taking her to court so I can see my son. btw I did not sign the birth certifcate.

I probably sound like a real jerk, but I am who I am and I want to see my son. is it wrong to push a custody suit on her?

I'm 33wks pregnant and my fiance is sooo attentive. I should be happy right? Except sometimes it DRIVES ME CRAZY!

Every night when he walks in the house he asks how i am, puts his hand on my cheek and forehead (to make sure i don't have a fever), strokes my belly, asks if i'm hot/thirsty/hungry/tired/sick etc - even if i say i'm fine he is all over me with "Oh my poor baby this is so hard for you" etc.

Every morning when we wake up he asks if i'm hot/thirsty/hungry/tired/sick etc and comments that he feels bad that i'm so tired (even if i don't say i'm tired). He is just so ... concerned.. ALL THE TIME - even without needing to be.

Sometimes i can't handle all the extra coddling - he acts like i should be wrapped in cotton wool or something. "You shouldn't carry this, you shouldn't lift that, sit down i'll get you a drink" etc

Am i being unreasonable? Should i just be happy he's so attentive or am i entitled to get annoyed with it sometimes?

I am 19 weeks pregnant and have had higher blood pressures so my doc put me on meds and they seem to be coming down a little bit they averge 130-140/90. They did find some protein in my urine initially as well, which i had to do a 24 hour urine for but havent gotten back the results for exactly how much protein im spilling. Anyone else have similar pressures or protein while pregnant and if so how did it work out for you? I worry about everything!!!

I am a very loving, emotionally and physically available mother for my 3 year old son. So how come everytime he's with me he tells me he wants to be with his grandma, father (we're separated), aunts etc.? It really hurts my feelings. He doesn't do this to anyone else when he's with them. For example today, I took him bike riding just me and him for a few hours. We had so much fun and bonded so much. We got home, I gave him a bath, read him a book and gave him a kiss goodnight. He then blurted out his daily, "I wanna go to Softa's (grandma) house." I just don't understand. I mean I'm a good mother and I do discipline fair. I don't abuse my child. I show plenty of love to him. Isn't a child supposed to be attached to his mother? I don't react when he tells me these things so he's not just saying it to get a reaction. I keep it to myself. I know it's sometimes normal for them to feel close to someone else, but this is crazy. He never wants to be around me, he's always complaining. Help!

Hi. Im 32 weeks pregnant today. My doctor is not the best. My insurance limits my choice. Well I know that you all might not be doctors but Im curious to what you think. Who knows maybe some of you women have gone through what Im going through. Well this is the deal. My blood pressure has been kinda high the last 6 weeks. (around 140/80) Well the last two weeks Ive had the worst swelling from my knees down and my hands. I wore flip flops for two hours and had bruises for 3 days. Its that bad. Ive also had really bad head aches. Well I went to the doctor today and hes running some blood test to see if anything looks funny. Do you think that im in the first signs of preeclampsia? Im off my feet 90% of the time and Im staying away from salts. Oh and this is my first pregnancy and they havnt found protein (besides a trace) but i almost always have blood in my urine. (dont know why) If anyone could tell me their thought if would help. Thanks alot!!

Ie you pretend you did not do all the same things when you were young.


Or pretend as a girl you were this innocent 17 year old virgin


Not some groupie or party girl dating all the guys doing it in cars, cinemas, clubs, etc...


Then grew up


As for guys only into one hting...


Takes two to tango so the girls were just as much into sex stuff as the boys... more so... girls get it easier.


How many wnet clubbing and had a good time?


well the clubs I was into were all very safe... in one saw one fight in 14 years and thats only as someone was dumb enough to touch the butt of a fiesty tomboy girl who floored him, twice her size who out moshed the boys in the wild most pits.


how many all snuck into all the r/18 rated movies, drank underage, smoked, smoked dope etc.


As it was pretty much all I knew.

This other mother and I have taken turns taking each others kids and my 20 month old daughter is being tormented by this 4 year old demon child that I have volunteered to take. This boy already has an extensive vocabulary that consists mostly of filthy words and he teases my daughter who barely talks or understands why she's being pushed around

I try to separate them but he seems to be a sadistic four year old who won't stop. He even calls me names until I put him on the "stairs" and then told his mom I was "mistreating" him. She assured me she didn't believe him but has been suspicious looking around me.

I would never mistreat a child, but what do i do with this manipulative brat!?!

I only have one child and I am a younger mother than this other mom who already has 3 kids...what do i do?
