My daughter seperated with her husband 3 years ago, my son in law moved 9 hours away and see his children maybe once a month. When he doesn't get his way, like the food that he likes, he gets very angry and refuses to eat. He tells his mom that it's her fault if his dad is not with them and calls her bad name.

Please help! I just began seeing a psychotherapist for postpartum depression because I was continuously crying, becoming an alcoholic, and just could not get a good bond going with my darling, wonderful newborn. I'm not blaming my husband for the postpartum, but the lack of bonding I feel, truly is partially his fault. The only decisions I've been allowed to make concerning my baby are what she can wear so far. He even went so far as to not allow me to put a bow around her head when we went out because he said it looked uncomfortable and that I was wrong. I've worked with children since I was a teenager and have been a teacher in a preschool for 5 years, all ages. I also have a four year old son from a previous relationship. Regardless, he ignores any and all suggestions I offer and I really do make them suggestions, not demands. I feel completely out of control. I hate myself and my depression just makes it worse. I am the one who takes care of the kids most of the time. Help!

Financially I have hit rock bottom. I have a 2 yr old daughter and the courts mandated I pay 275 a month for insurance for her. Her daddy isn't steady with paying the child support. With my bills I have 200 dollars in the hole. My only extra I can drop is cable so I would be only 100 in the hole. I was given a choice to move an hour a way from my work to live with my mother or move 10 mins away from my work to live with my friend. My mom has no extra room for me and I would sleep on the couch the days she is home. The baby would be in her room unless her boyfriend was over then we were both on the couch, I would have to pay a lil less bilss. My friend has no child but one small dog. She has an extra bedroom and she is already established. I would be about 300 to the good when bills are caught up. I would have to share a room with my daughter but wouldn't be able to take everything like I have at my own home. I would have a tv in my room. What do I do here?

With the birth of my daughter this past January, my husband stayed home from work for a week after she was born. After she was born we had to stay in the hospital for 2 days, then after coming home we had visitors every day for the rest of the week! It was exhausting! I was so tired and just wanted to spend time with the baby and on top of that I was trying to learn how to nurse her, which is hard to do when you have a house full of people! Plus by the time my husband had to go back to work we didn't get to spend hardly anytime alone with our daughter because we had visitirs every day! We are hoping to have another child soon, and I was contemplating asking people to not visit for the week after the birth. In the hospital is fine, but when I come home I don't really want any guests. Is this ok to do, or is it rude?

I just can't comprehend that young girls MY age, thirteen, are getting pregnant. I mean, getting pregnant at an age as early as thirteen? It's completely absurd. Why do young girls feel the to do such immature things for their age? I was skimming across the adolescent category and the majority of the questions said; "omg im 14 and pregnet wut do i do??". Raped and molested, that's a different story, since the victim had no control. They really should pay MORE attention to these situations in school, then maybe young students would realize the extreme consequences of having sex at such an early age. What really bugs me is when the person says; "i had sex i really regret it it was a mistake i kno.." Didn't they very well KNOW the consequences? Why is that AFTER they have the sex, they realize it was a mistake? I simply don't understand, it's so ridiculous. When reading about these situations, it makes me want to be even more responsible...

I'm currently 19 weeks preg and I've always wanted a little girl called Rheia [Ray-Ah] Dawn, but my family seem to think it's a stupid name and my Grandmother has said, half-jokingly, that she's going to call her something else. My dad just laughs everytime I mention it and my Mum keeps suggesting names like Beth and Eve (I have friends who have girl's named most of the names she says, and I don't wanna have a kid with a realyl common name).

Rheia is the mother of Zeus and the other Greek Gods, but I just thought it was a pretty name that's neither girlie or tom-boyish, and Dawn after my best friend who died when I was little. They don't disagree with the Dawn part, they think that using my friend's name is very touching, but they really hate the Rheia part.

Do you think I should stick to my guns or change my naming choice because of my family?

Well my mom said I can get another cat...(after an ETERNITY of begging) and I don't know what to name him/her. I need some suggestions. My other cat is named Tabooli ( I did NOT name him!) and I was thinking another T name, like Tessa or Tucker. What do you think of those names and do you have any suggestions ( they don't have to start with T)...


Thanks!

I had my little boy 3 weeks ago and recently the pain has come back on my left side and so has the cramping. I was just wondering if the pain is supposed to last this long. Also, the dr. prescribed me 40 lortabs and I was wondering if they would refill or if they cut it off since it is addictive. Thanks.

getting a negative early home pregnancy test, then going on to test positive later?

I just need to hear that there's still hope.

I'm 11 dpo and of course tested negative this morning. I have dull, mild , constant cramping, feels a little like burning in my abdomen. I had super sore nipples for a week after ovulation but that's gone now. Last cycle I had pink and brown spotting that I mistook for implantation bleeding 4 days before AF.

I'm going crazy wondering if every little twinge is early pregnancy symptom or PMS. Any personal experiences would be appreciated. Thanks

If you read my other question about my older sister and I, she just had twins, and her husband left her not long before the babies were born. So I've been staying with her to help her with the twins. Well... he just called yesterday, and told my sister, Jamie, that he wants to come home and help take care of the kids. But the reason he left was I caught him with another woman, and he got her pregnant!!! What do you think my sister should do?

I start my first cycle of clomid tomorrow. I was wondering about your experiences with clomid. How long did it take to conceive--if you even did. How long were you trying to start with? Any multiples? Any side effects? Thanks :)

last period: june 12th
Baby Dance days: june 21st and 29th
next period: around july 9th

we just started trying. i been feeling funny since the 21st just like my body is not me. i just can't get comfortable. like the only way i can sleep now is on my stomach. i been having to go to the bathroom frequently even when i haven't drunk anything. this is not like a little twinkle but like a full bladder. my stomach been feeling queasy like i have to throw up but it don't come. i usually don't get heartburn but lately i get it. i find myself not intentionally but walking around holding my lower back like i am several months pregnant or something. people keep asking are you. my stomach is looking bigger than usual.

i am due to get my period around july 9th. last night i had some mild cramps and this morning when i went to the bathroom when i wiped myself i saw like a small pink tinged color on the toilet paper. it was just that one time.

do you think i am?
