You know, the ones you look back on and go "Man, those were the days". What are they specifically about how old do you think you were? As I watch my 2 year old grow it made me think of these tings. I remember...

Grandma taking me to lake at the cemetary to feed the ducks when I was about 4-5.

Playing outside by the AC unit wondering why all the air was blowing OUT instead of in and why is was hot instead of cool when I was about 5-6.

Helping Grandpa pack the truck for a weekend visit to the lake property when I was 4-5.

Good times,,,,,,,so less complicated.

constantly? My friend has a 4 month old and ever since she was about 1 month old she has constantly, and I mean ALL the time, arches her back almost making a C shape, with her belly sticking out. Will this affect her posture and body if she continues to do this?

I had the most tramatic experience yesterday. I'm 6 1/2 weeks pregnant. I had felt some mild pain my lower left side and the doctor did an ultrasound just to check where the baby was. Well she couldn't find the baby, not even a sac. She got me an appointment at radiology 7 hours later (the longest 7 hours of my life) for a more detailed scan to see if they could locate the pregnany in my tubes. My HCG's were over 24,000 so we knew there was a baby with a beating heart somewhere. She had also told me she felt a mass on my left side, perhaps in my tube. She talked to me about surgery for an ectopic and what would happen and all that. Well last night after a 25 minute scan where the tech didn't say a word at first, just looked really serious, she finally looked at me and saw I was upset, and then turned the screen around and showed me my baby and it's beating heart in my uterus. I couldn't believe it. I shareb this to remind people that doctors are not always correct and to keep hope.

I just read a small part of taking charge of your fertility on line regarding taking your basal temperature.Now when you take your temp 1st thing in the morning if you are going to start ovulating is it going to be higher?then the other days? Also can I use a digital or does it have to be a certain kind? Sorry I am new to this checking your temp thing?
Is it the kind of thermometer you have to read the lines because i really don't know. I have been using the Ovulation strips for 6 months and nothing so i thought maybe this will work?Any help would be greatley appreciated Thank-You

One of my friends said that one can guess what they are going to have based on the pregnant womans sibilings and the expecting father's siblings. So lets say I have a sister and my husband has a sister. She believes that we would have a girl. Do any of you buy this?

I'm TTC and have been charting my bbts. My period started a few days ago (albeit it's been lighter than usual) but my post ovulation temp has stayed high. Shouldn't my temperature dropped by now? Could I be pregnant?

I have taken two CVS Early Pregnancy Tests. On both i recieved a very faint blue line. It showed basically immediately. I am 6 days before my expected period. However i know i ovulated early so i took the test earlier than recommended. Do you think there is any chance these are both evaporation lines? Or true positives? Any one recommended CVS tests? I am hoping for ++++++++++ It seems to good to be true!

I just want to know if tinned spagetti loops (the ones in a tomato based sauce) are bad/good/ok for my 1 and a half year old daughter? She loves them and i tend to feed them with her meals on a daily basis, is this ok? its not always every day but most days she will have them with one of her meals.
Thanks.

Drives me nuts! My son is 17mos. He does it with his food and his toys. I tried to ignore it. That hasn't worked. I've tried to tell him no-no and that hasn't worked. Do I just have to wait for him to out grow it?

Okay so I'm still a virgin, but my boyfriend did touch his penis (he reassured me that there weren't any bodily fluids on his hands) then he fingered me. I know that getting pregnant by this method is close to impossible, but still likely. If I bought a pregnancy test right now (even if my expected period date is 5 days from now), would the results be accurate?

Or do you think the baby will be too big?

I know this question doesn't really have a "right" answer. I know it just depends on the individuals. So, this is just a hypothetical/opinion question.

If there is a couple that already has two children and they are at in impasse about whether or not to have one more child...

Should they stop at two, knowing that one parent feels like their family is incomplete? The partner loves the children that are there and knows that they could be happy with just the two, but will always wonder about and mourn for the third child that could have been.

Or should they go for one more, knowing that one of the parents isn't 100% on board with it? That partner also loves the two that are there and is a great parent, but doesn't want to disappoint the other parent and knows that they will grow to love a third child just as much as they love the existing two.

What would you decide?
