Can any of you experienced BBT charters look at my BBT chart and tell me if I ovulated???? I had a miscarriage Aug 4th at 6 weeks since then I got a positive OPK, Ferning with a saliva test and EWCM but my BBT is all over the place.....Please help me figure out if I have already ovulated....Also for the last week I've been waking up in the middle of night which I think might be throwing my temps off. I usually test at 5:30 but for some reason I keep waking up between 3am and 3:30 to go to the bathroom.....Thanks in advance!!!

I think that people should make a place where teens can go and live. All teens think they are responsible enough to go live on their own. Well I think that they should make a town or whatever where TEENS can live with NO parents and see how hard it is. I'd like to do that. I think it'd be fun. Who agrees? Sort of like Kid Nation...but more for teens. We would have jobs and houses of our own. I think that would be AWESOME. Adults ALWAYS complain about how much of a pain we are and how irresponsible we are. I think we should prove them wrong. Just an idea and my opinion.

I found out I was pregnant 3 days ago at 9DPO, I have been taking a test everyday since and they are all positive. I am due for my period on Sunday. When will I be safe from a chemical pregnancy or am I worrying too much?

I know it's normal to have a little blood but I just happened to look in the toilet before I flushed and there were tiny chunks of dark red blood. It doesn't look like a mucus plug, but I have slight cramping... is this normal? These chunks are tiny by the way, like no bigger than a pen cap.

and moms somehow just *managed*?
I see and hear so many things now about sahm's with nannies, parents needing *breaks* every few days, for goodness sake, how do these people think women managed in past times, when often they had 7 or 8 children, and housework was a damn sight harder than it is now!
I'm not old, don't get me wrong, I'm only 34! It just gets me bothered when so many women overcomplicate parenting to the max, and seem to forget that women have been doing it for thousands of years with a lot less help than they have!
What do others think?

If the first day of my last period was July 16th and an online calculator says im 6 weeks along(technically only 4 weeks with something growing) but the calculator counts from the last period then when I am looking at a pregnancy chart to determine what week of pregnancy I am really in and how big the baby is at this point would it be a 4 week or 6 week?

I'm having a bigger tummy, which I don't really know it's just fat or anything. It starts to make me worry, bcoz some of the symptoms hit me, in within a month after my previous period.

I'm thinking of starting a part-time service business where I'd go to a person's home whose about to have or just had a baby. For a fee I'd prepare and prepackage meals with your food(2 weeks worth), do basic house cleaning like sweep & mop, dust, clean toilets & tubs, take out trash, (even clean linnens for an extra fee) for $300 (more or less depending on how big the house is). I could expand the service, for extra fees, to shop and run errands. If it's postpregnancy I would even help with diapers/babysitting for a while while mom sleeps, for an extra fee. During this time, the mothers/parents are usually exhausted and don't have time to think about cleaning and cooking. I think this would be a great service to offer, but is there a damand for it? Some people don't have family or friends that can help with these things. Would anyone out there consider a service like this for themselves or purchase the service for a loved one?

If two married people are decent and contributing members of society but simply cannot tolerate and have a strong dislike for kids,can they still be considered good christians?

I've made a checklist with his daily responsibilities, so forgetting is no longer an option. He has to complete 5 days worth of checklists to get a prize. He is still having trouble brushing his teeth, even with the incentive. Any ideas? I don't want him to lose his teeth at an early age or ever for that matter.

She's my step daughter and we see her every two weekends. For her school holidays we have her for a whole month and me and my husband, have been trying to help her to stop wearing diapers at night.
Her mother insists in keeping her a baby. She still takes a bottle and pacifier and really acts as much younger.
She's been trying hard but she often had accidents and we always end up with her bed wet.
We do not give her drinks at night and make her go to the toilet before going to sleep.
We also talk to her and explain that we will not get mad, but that she has to learn for her own good.
She is a little girl living in two families, with her mom in a rather difficult environment (living also with grandparents) and with us.
I'd like to help her more, so if you shared your experiences it would maybe help us help her.
Thanks in advance.

my son is such a great kid. in school he has the hardest time because all of the kids pick on him. all i want is for him to find a friend. he ends up getting in trouble alot because he is tired of being bullied and ends up hitting the other kids, which gets him in trouble, but the "bullies" get away with it. any suggestions on how to help him through these tough years? he is going into 5th grade and he also has complex patical seizures which doesn't help his situation.

My son just started kindergarten at a Public school on August 16th. Everyday but one, I have been told by his teacher that she's had problems with him. And this morning a little girls mom came up to me and said he daughter told her that my son spit in her face!!! I cann't handle being told everyday that my son is bad. He's been a defiant child for about the past four years. I have tried everything I can think of. He was in therapy but, that was going no where and fixing nothing! I am seriously considering taking him out of that school. and homeschooling him. My sister in law thinks that he needs school for the social part...but I am planning to sign him up for soccer as well as Boy Scouts! I did home school him for like 6 months but I got further along with my 2nd pregnancy and was just too tired to do it! But, I am ready to do it...any laws or tips for the State of Kansas on homeschooling will be extremely helpful!!!

My mom and me babysit. And we watch my niece and my nephew as well. My newphew (Lucas) is almost 9 months and he won't do anything! He can't even sit up by himself! You can sit him there yourself and he'll sit up but then he goes back down as if hes to lazy. He only rolls where he wants to go. And its like he has no desire to crawl or do anything. How can we help him to crawl and do some new moves. I know that he'll be ready when he is but goodness almost 9 months! I try putting him on his hands and knees but he just slides right back down. All he does is roll roll rollllllll where he wants to go! Help!

I'm 13 weeks pregnant but they say the breast vs bottle decision is one you need to make early. I had a dream the other day where I was breast feeding and it has made me really want to try but I know it doesn't work out for everyone. What does everyone else think??

My five year old is soon starting Year One of School and lately I have noticed she has being wetting and soiling her knickers , sometimes in the house and once or twice when we were out and about. I have tryed talking to her and finding out what the root of the problem is but she says she doesn't know why she does it. I have a feeling it is due to her not wanting to miss out on anything and leaving it to the last minute therefore she cannot hold it in any more. I am so worried and embarrassed for her and what will happen at school about being teased about it. Any (serious) suggestions please?

I know everyone wants a baby but I would like a few extra prayers sent our way for encouragement & for peace that it will happen soon. We are in our 14th month ttc with our first child & have been married 4 yrs and we are strong in our faith. We believe every prayer spoken is equal to 10,000 & doesn't go unheard. We have wanted this baby so badly anyways but now we feel we definately need to conceive. There have been some issues with our close family members on both & everyone is kind of pulling away from each other. Plus my grandpa has passed away & my husbands grandma is really sick. We always wanted them to see their great-grandkids. We feel if we could just conceive and bring a new life into this family they will see the true meaning of life. Is that crazy? Things are just going on around us we can't control but they all do have one common interest and that is in us having a baby. So if you pray please pray for us or if you wish on a lucky star or whatever just send it our way!!!
