There isn't even a walmart! Not that I shop there, but to give you a basic idea. The population is approximately 2500.

I am 21 years old and currently in the U.S. Army. I am 16 weeks pregnant with my first child. Recently my platoon sergeant (some e-7 a'hole) told me if I was pregnant I would have been shown right now. When I go back home yea I see my belly sticking out there. Maybe he aint seen it. So now I am scared what if I need to be shown a little bit more. My last Dr. check up, they told me the baby heart beat is good and its growing. Things that should have moved (inside of me) during the pregnancy did! But listening to my platoon sergeant has me all scared now. Its to the point where he make another nco go with to my appointments. I been told it doesn't look like I m pregnant. I been told by other mothers give it a month. Shoould I be showing? And what should I do with this dumb platoon sergeant of mine?

His mom, Lorie, is trying to homeschool Chase for the summer. Lorie and Chase only get a disability check for Chase in the amount of about $600. Yes they are both on Medicaid and their medical bills are met. Lorie has never been able to work since having Chase. My daughter is a great mother and only I have seem some of the trials and tribulations she has gone thru for her son. What Lorie needs right now is teaching tools so she will be able to homeschool her son this summer.She does not have enough money to purchase materials after she pays rent, utilities, clothing for both and personal items. She has no auto. Chase is still in pull-ups and she desperately needs tools to help him overcome pull-ups. She needs tools or cds about how you get an austistic child to brush his teeth, because so far, Chase will not. She and I did not want this to sound like a hard-luck story, but in a way that is exactly what it is. Do you know anyone who can help Chase and his mom?
Thanks

I think a lot of people have funny labour stories. Mine was i was on my way to the hospital (they were going to induce me), my best friend and partner were with me. We were on the lift as they had a room ready for me. But lucky me my waters broke on the lift...in front of so many people...how embarrasing. I was laughing so much, my partner freaked out ! but 2 minutes of laughing and the pain started. I was screaming my head off, screaming for a nurse or someone, screaming at my partner. 4 hours later my baby boy was born !! (1st baby)
What was your labour story?

my 11year old daughter is being bullied at school. After going to the school twice in the last 3 weeks, my daughter was off school all last week with chest pains, and last night got inconsoleable that she had to go back today. She didnt sleep last night, but I am making her get dressed now, as I will go in with her and sort this out once and for all.....if i dont get what i want, i wont leave her in school, but this is ridiculous. She is a lovely girl and was very popular, but she fell out with 3 girls and now it seems most the class is picking on her. I know this as i have heard comments even when we were out shopping ojn Saturday, when some of the lads in the class spotted her.

My question is....what next. I am really worried now. My other children, who are older, have had a go at these people, but it hasnt made any difference....I just dont know what to do, this is killing me inside and I have no husband or partner to fall back on

My 6 month old baby used to sleep better at night. For the past few weeks he has been waking up every 3 sometimes 2 hours at night. The only thing that will get him to calm down is a bottle. I can't really do the cry it out method as my baby shares a room with us and my husband has to be up early for work. I'm very tired what do I do?

I'm so sick of strangers wanting to hold my baby's hands. Why do people do this? Babies always put their hands in their mouths and I don't know where your hands have been. That drives me insane! What is a really nice way of saying, "Lady, don't touch my kid!" ?

The other night i got too drunk, and my guy best friend asked me to his house. we occasionally hook up and hes asked me if i had wanted to have sex before and i would say no everytime since i was planning to wait for this guy in another country i have been in love with for over a year.

so basically we had sex, but i dont remember any of it.. and no we didnt use protection. the only thing i remember is telling him to stop because it hurt. my dad will go insane if i get pregnant, and the country where i live you cannot get any morning after pills without parental consent.

i just.. i dont know what to do.

What do you think? My 2 1/2 year old daughter pointed to a picture of my grandfather, who died before I was born, and said "grandpa". I never told her who he was either. She's always laughing when she's by herself and pointing as if she sees someone. I wonder if it's my grandpa, or her guardian angel.

Also, I have take some advice for answers to look at the old family tree for ideas. What do you think of Vera? Too old sounding?

Hi,

My son is 17 months old. He's never been a 'good' sleeper, but he generally sleeps all night without fussing now. My problem is that he wakes up an hour earlier than I really want to. I know, that's my problem, and I should get up, right? No - then he wakes an hour earlier than that! And then earlier ... earlier... seriously, I've tried that angle and he (and me too) winds up so sleep deprived it's pitiful. Right now I'm letting him cry until the time I deem to be 'morning'. But that's a really crummy way to start off every morning.

I've got the window blocked so nearly no light comes in, and a fan going constanly to try to drown out the sounds of the neighbourhood waking. I"ve tried varying bedtimes forward and backward. I've tried 'pushing' naptimes and I've tried cutting back on naps.

In short, I'm going nuts and hate my mornings. If I wake up before he does, I can't go back to sleep because I dread his wake-up time, then feel guilty for that!

I need suggestions! Thanks!

Ex-wife only has to pay $200 a month in child support. How is that going to help?

My ex-wife is suppose to pay me $200 a month but she refuses to do it. Why does she have to pay so little? If it was the other way around and I had to pay it would be a lot more. I have custody. I only make 450 a week, Have to pay 750 rent and electric, gas and water, 240 truck note, groceries, and incidentals. I always hear of others child support being a lot more and wondering if it is because I am dad is why I get the least amount?
