sometimes when i change his diaper after he wakes up from his nap he has an erection...if i continue to clean his penis while erect, does this cause any sort of sensation for him...i don't want his first experience of sexual pleasure to be from his mother! should i just wait until it has gone soft again?

I'm not pregnant now, and don't plan to be for about 18 months-2 years, but my boyfriend and I are having a disagreement about what to name our future son. I like the name Cortez and he likes the name Isaiah. They don't really work together, so we can't use one as a first and the other as a middle. Both have some negative associations (the explorer Cortez and the newly fired Isaiah Washington), but we are firm in our decisions. Which name do you all prefer? (My daughters are Juliana and Olivia)

Ok, here is the situation:

You are sitting at a playground park bench with other parents while your kid plays on the playground. He comes crying to you and tells you that some adult guy just hit him. You go to confront the guy and this is what you tells you...

the guy says:
Your child was biting my nephew and wouldn't let go. I yelled for this kids parent but the playground was too loud and parents are sitting a good distance away. the guy also says he didn't wanna pull your child off cuz it may have taken chunk of skin off...guys says he kept telling kid to STOP! STOP! and had to resort to hitting your kid hard enought for him to stop...

my question is...
what do u do? Are u angry at the guy? or do u just turn around and discipline your child and tell the guy 'sorry' ?

I am breastfeeding my 11 day old son. I haven't stopped for anything, or been suplimenting with anything but I have been pumping. My left breast is about twice the size of my right one and my son is having a hard time latching on to my right one because there is no milk there it seems. When I pump, I actually get twice the amount of milk from the left one. Is there any way to make my right one produce more?
Thank you

I really like the name Soren, but also like Zoren or Xoren and can't decide.
The full name would be Soren Charles Schroeder, Zoren Charles Schroeder Or Xoren Charles Schroeder. What do you prefer???

1. I heard that most places kind of..."discriminate" against single people who want to adopt. If you had a nice home, a stable income (100,000 +) nice family ties, and a stable environment, what is there to pick at a single person for besides being single?

2. Do you have to be married to adopt internationally?


3. How hard would it be for an american to adopt Italian kids?
greek kids?


thanks guys

My seven year old is very well adjusted, and I try to keep her somewhat distant from my family. My family is very religous and fearful of the world (even if you spill water on the floor it is rather a panic, because you could slip and fall and end up in the hospital). Everything they do is from fear of something bad happening. They see everything as right and wrong. I am a single mom, so obviously I am in the wrong and my kids dont' have a 'proper' life. My auntie is the best of the bunch and the least judgemental and wants my daughter to come for a sleepover with her daughter. Her daughter is about 3 years older. BUT her daughter is very self righteous and very into the religion of what is right and wrong. I dont' like having her in my house because she labels us wrong at 11 years old! I don't want my daughter going, even though the break would be nice. How do I polietly decline?

I am married and 26 yrs old. My last period was in mid april. Since then I haven't had my period as of yet. We had intercourse in around May 24-26 dates. I did blood test and urine test at the lab. Both came out negative. I just checked with my doctor and she said I will have to do Sonogram since i am two months late for my period and I may not be ovulating. I just felt my tummy is slightly getting bigger but that might be bloating. I feel tired and have lower back pain sometimes. Other than that I don't have any pregnency symptoms. Is it possible am I be Pregnent even though blood test came out negative. Anyone have this type of issue? Should I just wait another month or take the sonogram?

To all you who have babies, or kids, what are the baby items you "couldn't live without?" We're trying to decide what we actually need from all of the swings, play pens, bassinets, bouncy chairs, etc. What did your kids love? Any recommendations? Thanks!

My daughter has been a great eater and latching on and everything right form the start. Just a day or so ago whenever she eats she takes a little at a time, and fusses after being latched on for about 30 seconds or so. Is this something i should be concerned about, or how to stop her from doing that, what can be causing it, Did you have that problem. Any sugestions please, and thanks for your response.

I wasn't able to take my temp right when i got up, so i took it about an hour later. I know that i cant rely on it, but i tend to notice that after an hour or so my temp will go down after i take it first thing in the morning (i take my temp a lot) and wanted to know if i could assume that my temp would have been higher if i had taken it when i first woke up. Does anyone else notice that their temp drops a bit just after they get up? Thanks for any input :)

Will eating pineapple & watermelon caused miscarriage? Elderly people always discourage pregnant woman to eat these fruits. How about those who are in the process to get pregnant (2-4 weeks pregnant)?

Please advise. Thanks a lot!!!

My daughter is 6 years old and I swear she has no concept of how loud she can be. I can't take her to a restaurant or anywhere in public without telling her 5000 times to lower her voice. I babysit a 3 month old baby M-F and 5000 MORE times a day I'm telling her to stop shouting while the baby is napping.
She isn't doing it intentionally, she just seems to lack volume control. I've started pulling her aside and making her sit totally still with no movement or no sound for 2 minutes (which seems like forever when we're sitting there and I'm watching the clock). I thought this could remind her to keep her volume down, but I don't really feel right about punishing her for something she isn't doing intentionally. Any pointers on how I can teach my daughter to control her volume? Because clearly, telling her 5000 times a day isn't working.

Well, Like in my previous question I stated that me and Hubby Are trying to conceive. Well We have been having regular sex the past few weeks. I ovulate July 1st. Michael went away today for the week, {Some family problem} So the last day we tried was on June 27!
I heard that semen lasts in the female reproductive system for only a few days, but I heard somewhere else it was 7??!! Can anybody tell me the cold hard facts of life.. hahaha
But yea, I'm all confused and upset now, because that means we'll have to wait.. AGAIN!! If anybody has Information that would be helpful, PLEASE feel free to write it!!
Thank you
