she doesnt want to be admitted, this is her second child and she wanted to have the first at a birthing center. She had complications and wasnt able to. Now its her second and her water broke this morning. She doesnt have strong or consistant contractions and is only dialated 2. If she doesnt get some good progression to her labor, she'll have to be induced and wont be able to have her baby at the birthing center again! any ideas?

*because the water broke already, sex is out and a lot of walking is sort of out. she is leaking so its hard really to walk.

My 6 month old has been breastfeeding since the day he was born and now all of a sudden it hurts when he eats and the pain is in my nipple and they just down right hurt. It feels like he is just biting them over and over again but he has no teeth. I have gotten to the point where I am considering switching him to the bottle but don't wanna do that because I breastfed my older son for 18 months. What could be causing this pain and how do I switch him to a bottle if this pain doesn't go away, we have tried giving him a bottle a few times in the past and he wants nothing to do with them. I have no clue what to do all I know is that I can't handle this pain for much longer.

I've heard that putting soap in the mouth is considered corporal punishment. Are there any safe and effective alternatives?

She is under 18, we are not married, she took the emergency contriceptive and is now 4 days late, we took a test and it came up possitive, she wont tell her parents, because they will kick her out. The thought of being teenage parents is pretty horrible but so it the thought of termination of the pregnancy.

I'm not sure how to react or what to do, so far i've just settled her down abit and told her we will get another test and have a look tomorrow to make sure its certain, If she wants to keep it or adopt it, i said i will support her, but termination would I suppose leave her life intact apart from the mental side, but i dont have the money to just hand over, then there is the moral side to termination. Anyway any help is appreciated.

I'm so worried about my sister because 2 years ago she had an Ectopic pregnancy and had to have a tube removed.

She has now got pregnant again and so far it is too soon for the doctors to tell if its Ectopic, they'll do another scan in 10 days, but i'm soo worried that something bad will happen between now and then i am so nervous and having bad sleeps i dont want anything bad to happen to her. Do you know how many weeks ectopic pregnancies are likely to occur?? she is currently at five weeks

I'm sure this is on every pregnant mothers mind, but i can't seem to get it off mine. I know what happens when a woman miscarries before 20 weeks, but what happens when a woman loses the baby after 20 weeks when it's concidered a still birth? Same things as a misscarriage? I'm scared that my body will not let me know when something is wrong. My pregnancy is great so far. I didn't bleed, or spot any time during this one, or the first one. But just something that sits in the back of my head. I'm trying to enjoy my pregnancy. Thanks for your information!

I recently had to have emergency exploratory surgery following a tubal ligation gone bad. My mother-in-law brought my very young children into my ICU room while I was still intubated! I'm furious that she thought it was appropriate for them to see me like that. During my hospital stay, on two separate occasions, she said to me, "I knew B.K. should have been the one to get snipped. It would have been an outpatient procedure and none of this would have happened." She also mentioned this again three days after I was discharged from the hospital. I recently found out that she said the exact same thing to my mother the day it all happened! I was literally moments away from death and she thinks its cute or funny to say things like that? I just don't get it. I'm terribly upset about the whole situation. Am I over-reacting? Should I say something to her? If so, what to say and how to approach her in the first place? I fear that its too late to say anything, but I am truly upset.

My husband's father had two brothers and his mom had two sisters. They both had one boy(my hubby) and one girl. Do you think guys get their sperm gene from their father or mother or it doesn't matter at all and there will always be a chance for either a boy or girl? Have you had the same sex child or one or more of each?
