I'm really sad about this. She seems to be doing ok. She had it taken out today. She has Polycystic ovarian syndrome and though high rate of miscarriage is known, I'm highly disappointed. Anyone has any words of wisdom and encouragement on this topic. :(

I love being a full time mom and housewife. Sometimes it's challenging, especially when my husband is deployed, and when my brain starts to feel kinda mushy from consistently being on a 2 year old level! But it's all worth it to me.

My question is this, am I the only person who gets offended by people and family who imply I am wasting my life or am lazy because I do not earn an income?

I could work if I wanted, and sure, the extra money would be great. But the price is too high as far as I am concerned. I work my rear off at home and I love it. How do you react to these kinds of people with tact?

My husbands parents and siblings live out of state(the same state). They are putting a lot of pressure on my husband for us to drive there so they can see the baby. Like, very soon after he is born they want us there. I think they should come see us. What do you think? By the way, we have 2 other kids who will be in school.

he is a twin and his sister talks more than him and the few words he does say are one syllables, like no, juice, etc... he acts very frustrated when i can't understand what he wants. his sister says small sentences like i can doooo ett. is that ok to not make sense to anyone else but me. they have some kind of "twin"talk they do, they understand each other buti'm clueless!! he is just worryin me since he's not putting 2 words togther like her, are there any sites that give info on thier devolpment, or does anyone have experence advice. i do encourage making them say what they want instead of freakin out, but he gets more frustrated. and does being a win have any reasons???

About a year ago I made mistakes, bad crowd. Though I regretted and apologized my parents were extremely harsh. Today they are proud of me, but I got so resentful that since then I've hardly spoken with them, I'm polite but distant. Now they want me to act as I used to before they punished me, want my love and trust back. My resentful behavior is driving them mad. But I can't see them as loving parents, can't get over. I don't do anything wrong, they are even proud of me. My resentment is my right. Why don't they leave me alone?

my daughter was starting to sleep through the night at about 5 months.. slowly she began waking more and more often screaming as if in pain, however, she stoped the moment i picked her up, and started again as soon as I set her back in her crib.it is not from teething because that was 6 months ago and she is still doing it! she just got her first teeth last week, and tylenol does not seem to help.so i don't see that as cause. she has been checked for ear infection...none found. we have tried letting her cry it out....she goes for 90 minutes and then sleeps just from exhaustion.I realy don't know what to do!
I have searched night terrors and it does not seem to be it either! I can't keep sleeping like this, and I feel so bad for her!
the cry sounds like a cry of pain, but all i have to do is hold her and she stops, which does not seem like pain, she would keep crying if she were in pain, right? if you have any idea at all, let me know. if you give me a name, i will google it
