My husband and I trying to conceive, so I've been educating myself on different delivery options. I've heard both the horror stories and the miracles of epidurals. Are there other options besides epidurals for pain relief? Thanks in advance!

I have 7 week old twins and during feeding time one of them starts screaming in pain, as I have started taking note of what is happening I have noticed that he does this while he is pooping and he just screams the entire time, but as soon as he is finished pooping everything goes back to normal. Has anyone ever heard about this happening before? If so what are possible solutions?

My son has had some congestion for a few days and went for his one month checkup Monday and the doc said he just has a cold and to use saline drops. I started those yesterday and ever since he has been worse. He has no fever 97.9, but he is so congested and is sleeping very restless(I have been up since 3:00am). He is coughing alittle, mainly when laying down, and sneezing. What do you suggest?

am I the only one? I am no longer a virgin as I was sexually abused by my father (now sitting in jail) when I was younger. But i am not going to have sex willingly until I'm married. Are there any other teenagers who think sex is not a game. It's something that God intended for marriage. Please don't tell me I'm the only 15 yo out there with a brain.

has been evaluated as adhd of the attentive sort....did well in grammar school and from 6th grade on has gone down hill...I think he is more aspergers syndrom on the mild spectrum. I don't medicate but have made dietary changes. He has failed all classes in 10th grade, but his computer (98-100). He won't cooperate with counseling. Talking things away doesn't work..no matter how long it's taken away. We have been consistent and can't inspire him. He won't do the homework, school just thinks he's lazy and insubordinate. I'm at a loss. I've put three older children through (girls) and they did well. I'm sad that I am failing him. I'm not putting him through any more eval's so my opinion on the asperger's is not part of documentation. Any constructive advice would be welcome.
He's a good kid, but has bucked the system from day one. His social skills are weak and he lacks empathy for others. I don't mind the repeating of grade just want him to do the work.

Does anyone know what the going rate is for babysitting an 8 year old in Florida? I am a care giver now and I work through a company, but I have a friend that wants to know if I want to babysit his 8 year old little girl. He said that he is going to pay me, but I don't have any idea what to charge.

My son is 4 years old and we sometimes get strange looks from strangers when I feed him in public. What is a good age to stop breastfeeding? He really enjoys it and I don't want to deprive him. Thanks!

I have a 2yr old, a 1yr old and another on the way in Sept. I am in danger of going into preterm labor and was told by my Dr. to take it easy. My 2yr old just started daycare. This means I have to get up, feed the kids, make make my husband breakfast, get my daughter dressed and ready to go by 8:00am.Now mind you my husband stays in bed until 7:40 am while I am doing all of this...then has the nerve to ask me to iron his clothes for work. He doesn't understand why I am angry about all of this. how can I make him "get it"? NICELY! He turns into a mute when I start to yell.

It shows vaccinated children were more than twice as likely to have autism. We give over 30 vaccines to our kids. Autism is now according to the CDC 1:150 kids. It WAS in the '60's 1:10,000. Is there a correlation?

I hold my 4 month old daughter...a lot. When she's fussy, when she's not fussy, when she's content, when she's cooing...if she's awake, chances are good that I'm holding her. I do make sure that she gets adequate "tummy time" when she's awake and alert to make sure her motor development doesn't get behind.
The reason I ask is that I have a friend who has a baby slightly older...and she says she only holds her baby when she is feeding her. The baby seems perfectly content in her pack n play or bouncy seat, don't get me wrong...but her reasoning is that if you hold a baby too much the baby will become spoiled, clingy and dependant. I've heard the same thing from other people...and still others have told me that the baby builds a sense of security and trust with you when you respond quickly to his/her needs.
I love holding my daughter. I will admit that I do it for purely selfish reasons. BUT...I do want to know if this will affect her personalilty negatively

Every time my 15 month old sees his grandpa he flips out and starts to scream and cry. Is it possible hes just scared of his size? He stands 6-2 220, and everyone else that he sees on a regular basis is much smaller in size, 5ft - 5-8 at the most. Please help me out here. Its really bothering my father that he cant play around with my son. Thanks

How soon after birth?
How far of a distance?
How long did you stay away from home?
Any problems with baby?

Just curious, I'm due in a couple weeks and hubby is eager to plan a trip to introduce baby to relatives.

Of course, I understand, health of baby is a MAJOR factor and before we start to seriously plan something we will verify it's ok to go with pediatrician. But, for now, just curious what your experiences were? Thanks!

Dilatation and Curettage (D&C)Generally performed in the first or early second trimester. The cervix is dilated or stretched to permit the insertion of a loop shaped steel knife. The body of the fetus is cut up and removed from the placenta.
Prostaglandins Injection Performed during the second trimester. Prostaglandins, naturally occurring birthing hormones, are injected to prematurely induce labor. Oftentimes the baby is delivered alive.
Saline Amniocentesis (Salt Poisoning)This method, first used in Nazi concentration camps and now common in America, is performed during the second or early third trimester. A needle is injected into the abdomen, and 50-250ml of amniotic liquid is removed. This is replaced by a concentrated salt that burns away and deteriorates the baby's skin. Within three days the mother goes into labor and delivers a dead, burned baby.

My sister does that shaking thing to my wife and I can't help thinking that maybe she's just frustrated that she won't be able to bear a child due to her condition (she had menstruation problems and she had a cyst removed from her ovary last 5 years ago) so I can't help notice her frustration over my wife's womb. It's really bothering me.
