Pregnancy & Parenting - 24 August 2007

I'm not pregnant yet, nor have I been before. I was just wondering, did everyone take some kind of prenatal class?
If you did, which did you prefer and why? Did it really help you out in the end?
And if you didn't, do you wish you had?

no other symptoms that would make me think that it's early labor or food poisoning.

So I'm a mother of two and I have the luxury of being home with them every day. I do, however, want to get out of the house sometimes just to have some "me time" but everytime I make arrangements to do something, I always feel really bad about leaving the kids. Even if it's just with their dad for a short amount of time. Should I feel guilty for this? And if not, how do I stop feeling so guilty?

I want to know if I was the only person disgusted by that story where a guy has been taking care of his brothers child since he was one month old but when he decided that he and his wife want to adopt him the state says no cause he is 2 fat !! who are they to judge someones parenting skills based on how much they weight there are skinny paren'ts out there beating, molsesting, and raping the hick out of there children...I was disgusted by this and I think it shows america at it's worst....does anybody else feel this way?

My daughter is 12 and in 7th grade. She just started junior high school. She hasn't communicate with me, her father, and sister for a while. I have another daughter that is 9 that communicate & tells me everything and treats like I am her best friend. My 12 yr old doesn't talk unless she have to and spends every spare second in her room with her door closed. She doesn't even join family reunions or activities. I talk to her that I am upset about it. She say she wants to be this way and feels embarrassed about being with the family and is afraid that she might be with the family more than her sister. She feels if she is older, she shouldn't be with the family more than her little sister because she doesn't want to be more dependent than her sister who is younger. I don't understand why. I have a little sister too and when I was 12, I always want to be with my parents even if my little sister doesn't. I never feel embarrassed about it. Why is my 12 yr old that way? What I can do?

Hi. My son goes to preschool and most of his teachers are friendly and civil, except one. His afternoon teacher is not friendly and I was glad she moved to another school because I was tired of her mannerism, but she came back to his school and works the afternoon shift. Anyway, this teacher I don't like, doesn't say hi to me (when I say hi to her) or answer my question "Hi. how are you?" she is not warm and open to me, even if I try to smile at her and ask questions about my son's day, she doesn't . So I had to stop asking her questions. But I feel that she is selective and open to other people. My son, on the other hand, likes her and feels comfortable around her. She acts friendly and outgoing to my son, but not to me. I know I'm suppose to be happy that my boy's happy with her but she makes me mad and doesn't make me feel good because she can't even respond to me saying "Bye. have a good day" or "Thank you" or what have you to her. I think it's rude and unprofessional. Help!

So today I kept smelling this odd odor on me and finally i realized it was my breast pad. So i smelled it and it had a foul odor both of them. I smelled a pad that hadnt been used and no odor so the conclusion is its my milk that smells bad. Is it possible that something is wrong with my milk? My daughter has been more gassy then ever tonite and thats the only thing i can think of. I dont know if i should not breastfeed her and give her formula?? Im lost but shes very cranky and what seems to be gassy......
