I'm trying to give my friend some idea of what to look for while she's pregnant, (she's about 4 weeks) and what tests they do and whatnot, thanks. :)

My baby girl is a little over 4 months and weighs about 13 lbs and is 25in. She is in daycare and I nurse her in the mornings, evenings, night and during my lunch hour. She takes 2 4.5oz bottles (expressed milk)from her day care provider. So in all she is getting exclusive breastmilk at least 6 times a day somedays 8 (she might get up twice at night). My question is that when I go in during my lunch break and in the evenings after coming home, she wants to nurse for over an hour. She sleeps at the breat while actively sucking! Is that normal. When she gets up in the middle of the night she will only drink from one breast and generally for 10-15 minutes only. Is she getting enough milk. She does have 4-6 wet diapers and at least one poopy diaper per day. I guess she must be getting enough but just wanted to know from other moms if they have seen this wildly different nursing times. She is in the average percentile for weight.

I've heard that there are certain foods like peanuts that babies should not eat because it can result in getting them sick? I'd like to know some of the foods to avoid. Thanks.

I teach the Crawlers class at a daycare. I'm trying to come up with a cute survey for new parents to fill out. So far, I have favorite color, favorite cartoon character, favorite sports teams (college and pro), favorite song, book and their pet's name. Obviously, the kids are too young to care about any of that, but I thought it would be a cute survey for the parents to fill out for them. What are other cute questions I could ask?

This is a silly question, but I'll ask anyway.

Is it normal to have a pouch belly at 14 weeks(actually I will be 14 weeks this Saturday) ? My belly is not firm, it is soft...before I was pregnant I had a pretty firm tummy....so this is different for me....My legs and everything are still the same size....how was it for you? Thanks!

*this is my first pregnancy and first baby...it is all so exciting.

today is day 16 of my cycle and its the first day that i am noticing egg white mucus on my underwear
-i have light sharp twinges in my lower abdomen
-and my breasts have sharp pains around the middle..
so i am sure i am ovulating either today or tomorrow. plus i always ovulate on day 17 of my cycle.

last month i had the same symptoms plus a little fever too..
i also felt nausea through most of my lutheal phase but i wasnt pregnant.

now this month im getting the same symptoms again...
ive been feeling nausea.. and have a fever.. breast tenderness.. and lower abdominal pains... but last month i had all this and was not pregnant..

do you woman feel all this when you ovulate too? isnt nausea a little odd for ovulation though?

My grandma says that it means the baby is trying to make room for someone else, usually a younger sibling. Is this fact or fiction in your experience?

I'm 18 weeks pregnant and have no one to help me paint the nursery. If I cover my nose with one of those masks so I don't breathe in the fumes and take my time so not to exert myself, would it be safe for me to finish it??? My belly is starting to get big and I know I won't feel like doing it much longer. What should I do? Husband won't do it and my friend bailed.

i am 40 weeks pregnant, everyone asks me if i am having twins,the ultrasound i had two days ago said that the baby is around 10+ lbs. yet my doc wants to wait for another ten to 14 days. i am having health problems like traces of protien in my urine,high blood pressure, trouble breathing, constant swollen hands and LEGS not just feet but my whole legs. i just want to know if it is ok to get induced even though my cervix is closed, would it be the same as if it were open? i've been induced before, with my first child but i was 1 centimeter dialated.

should i demand to be induced or should i wait it out?
