I'm trying see if both sides would ever give a little and agree on something with abortion.

Would you agree to this as law? A woman can only have an abortion under these circumstances: Raped, mothers life is in danger, or she was on birth controll
It would take no more then 72 hours to find out if she was raped or was on birth controll.

Would you still have a problem with that if abortion was never brought up again (no more protests or attempts to change the law)?

I was suppose to start my period yesterday ... in the late afternoon I decided I didn't want to wait anymore and took a pregnancy test.. I was almost positive it would come back negative ... then it started to change .... POSITIVE !!! I took 7 more because I was in total shock... and all came back with dark lines... Ok so I have 2 questions...
I miscarried 2 months before.. when I took the pregnancy tests then they came out with a faint + line... does the darkness of the line mean anything??
I bought these tests from the dollar store, a lot of people recomded them as being the same as an expensive test... is that true?

I had been going to the gym 2-3 days a week, doing cardio and little weights, but since I have been feeling extra tired and my pregnancy test was positive, I have not been back to the gym. I am guessing I am only in my 4th week (I see the doc a week from today). If I feel up to it can I get back on the elliptical or the bike? Thanks!

We have a 1 month old son, and when he first came home from the hospital his diapers when poopy would be yellowish in color, then we had a formula problem and about a week ago we changed him to Similac Alimentum and hes had diareah ever since. Could this be the formula change or something bigger. Hes not in pain at all, and hes been gaining weight. So now what?

My belly sometimes feels so full or bloated that it is difficult for me to hold a straight posture. I know I need to keep good posture as preparation for later in the pregnancy, but right now I always feel weight forward... normal?

My little one is 14 months. Sometimes she can stay up for 8 hours at a time--like until 11 p.m. Playing outside and swimming wear her out, but does anyone know of a good way to make her tired? She is so active and hardly seems to need any sleep! Help!

shouldnt you adopt a child so you can raise a child you really dont want or dont have the money to care for??
wouldnt this be a better solution to the problem then picketing the clinics?

If fathers are so overprotective with their teenage daughters, why do many fathers be extra extra overprotective with their first daughter and the first daughter have no friends and is so anti-social that people talk about her introvertness all the time and on the other hand, fathers are so so so lenient with their second daughter and the second daughter wind up getting pregnant at age 15 and dropping out of school at age 17? Why can't fathers protect their daughters equally? Why don't fathers do their job right?

daughter just turned 18 - she's got a car, a little part time job, and has the filthiest mouth towards me, her dad and sister. she comes and goes when she wants and if she doesn't get what she wants, she breaks our stuff. we're tempted to change the locks but are afraid of what damage she'll do to our house and cars. she has stolen money from my purse, taken things of her sisters, and my husband thinks she may have taken some of his tool from the garage. pawn shop? who knows. Any advice' suggestions are appreciated -

My wife always gives our kid (2 years old) a snack right before bed. Strawberries, cherrios, etc.
I'm totally against this. I think the body needs sleep as a time to recoup and the child body easily has enough energy to get thru the night. I know i function better if i don't eat after supper.
My wife said kids are different and need that input even before bed.
Any input?

I am potty training my 3rd child. He is 3 1/2. It took forever to get him out of diapers and to put on new underwear. We were so proud he made that step. I was able to get him to sit on the toilet, both big and little for a day. He did not go at all in the toilet. He rather go in his pants. Now I cannot even get him to sit on a toilet. He says it will take forever. I keep asking him every 20 minutes if he has to go and he says no, still going in his pants. I do not believe in rushing my kids when it comes to potty time, but 3 1/2 is getting way too old in my opinion. I did not have this struggle with my first two, and I feel like I am going to lose it. How to you potty train a strong willed child?
