Pregnancy & Parenting - 13 July 2007

My daughter is 10 months old and she's had this really red diaper rash that has lasted for almost a month now. I have tried oat baths, special cremes (Aveeno, Panaten, etc...) and I even let her bum air out but nothing seems to be working. After giving her baths it may seem to go away but then it comes back really red. What can I do to get rid of this stubborn rash?

I'm 20 weeks with my first and I still don't feel the baby move everyday, but I've heard this is normal. I had a stomach before I was pregnant, so I'm hoping this is causing me to not feel her move as much yet. I was just wondering when everyone started feeling their baby move everyday with their first pregnancy?

my mom is pregnant and she thinks she is 9wks pregnant but when she went to her ultra sound yesterday the sack that the baby is supposed to be in looks empty and the nurse said that the sack measures up to her being 6wk pregnant and that it might be to early to see the baby but most likey the nurse said she miscarried .... did she miscarry or is it just to early to see the baby
what does this mean

What can I do? He says no to everything and it is driving me and my girlfriend crazy. He says it about 50 times every ten minutes, and when we aren't in the room he screams it so he can be sure we can hear him. Is there anything I can do myself? to make him stop?

We're in the process of registering for our first baby, so we're both kinda clueless. Infant spoons were on the recommendation list. Why do infants need spoons? Don't they just drink from a bottle? Also, how old until they're called a toddler. Are they still considered infants when you introduce solids? Thanks!

I was just wondering, for those moms that have been pregnant more than once...

Did you have implantation spotting with your second pregnancy if you had it with your first? Or maybe some of you had it with the second and not the first? Or maybe you had it with both? Tell me your experiences. I know it's rare to even have implantation spotting, so if you've never had implantation spotting with any of your pregnancies, this doesn't really apply to you. I know symptoms can differ with pregnancies, but I wasn't sure about this, since it is kind of one of those things where it is how your body responds to implantation.

I had implantation spotting with my first and only pregnancy, and I'm TTC #2 and wondering what to expect. And insight would be great! Thanks! And happy and healthy pregnancies to you all. =)

I'm considering purchasing a stroller to acommodate a three year old and an infant. I'd like to know other mom's recommendations based on experience. Is a sit and stand better than a double stroller or visa versa? I'm at square one with this and really am trying to do my reserch before I make a decision on what I should get. Any help and insight would be appreciated.

It's a great name for a boy or a girl. Chewie for short. Why not. I'm sick of names like Luke, Ashly, Morgan, etc.

I am always surprised ( and a little saddened) when I hear that one of my daycare children has no pets at home. I feel that having pets is crutial to teaching children to be loving and caring of all creatures. Why would you have kids and then have them be the only kid in 'class' who has no pet to talk about? Is it because you had no pets growing up? Are you just not "pet people?"

I just had an ultrasound that showed he's head-down. I am 35 weeks and he weighs 5 lbs 11 oz right now, so is it really likely for him to turn breech or transverse for birth?

So, my boyfriend and I have been talking about me possibly being pregnant lately. We have had incidents like this before, but they were not so serious. I have not been on my birth control for over 3 months now, and we have unprotected sex all of the time. Lately i have been gaining weight, and my stomach is getting bigger. Does that mean I am pregnant? We are both excited but I think I am more than him. I dont really have any symptoms, other than feeling sick in the stomach and peeing alot lately, and my last period was only one day and was not like it usually is. Does anyone have any kind of answer that would help me.

As the pregnancy progresses, nipples' color is supposed to get darker and darker, my nipples were getting dark gradually during the first 4 months, now I'm 22 weeks preg but these days I noticed a lighter color of my nipples. Is it normal? Should I worry about the change? Does it mean anything wrong with my hormone and my baby?

First, I know the surest way to find out if you are pregnant is to take a home pregnancy test...BUT...

I am wondering if there are any old wives tales about knowing if you are pregnant? After all home pregnancy tests were only invented in 1977, before then women must have had little homemade tests and susperstitions to try and determine if they were pregnant or not!

My LMP was on June 7th,2007. According to my past cycles I should have gotten my period on July 7th,2007. My hubby and I had unprotected sex on July 4th but he never went inside but there was fluid from him at my entrance. I took a pregnancy test on the 10th or 11th of July and it was negative. I do not have any pregnancy symptoms, but nor do I feel like my period is even comeing.( no cramping, no bloating, no bitchyness lol)

I have had late periods before but this is the longest missed period I have had. My best guess is, that my mother in law was visiting for a month. She has been through menopause already. I know that womens bodies sometimes match up with other womens cycles if they are around them often. Could I have missed it because my body was trying to match hers. lol it sounds stupid but It's all I can think of. I am not stressed I am actually more relaxed than I have been this whole year lol. Maybe you guys have a more logical answer for me. Patience I know.

For the record i am 37 weeks and 5 days. Ok I went to the bathroom and I had to pee well I heard anoise like something had dropped into the toilet. I thought it might have been my mucus plug. I got up and my pee was orange and cloudy like it had blood and egg whites in it. I know that is gross but what in the world is it? Please don't give any bull crap I am a little scared here.

1. Why can't you sleep on your back during pregnancy, how should you sleep and why?

2. Which position is better for your baby on his/her side or on his/her back?

When our baby is born we want to breast feed our child but i wouldnt know how much the baby will eat so would pumping sounds better to know how much they are getting fed but i heard that your milk can dry up if you pump and if baby gets breastfed then your milk keeps forming?
