My son turns one on December 20th. I want to make it special, but I don't have any ideas. We live in a small town so there aren't alot of venues we could rent out. Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

PLEASE-No bashing, as potty training is unique and individual to every child and every parenting situation. I admit I do bribe my son every now and then when I just KNOW he has to go potty, but refuses. My bribe ranges from a food item, to a sticker or a token toy. I know that food should never be used for bribes to get a child to do something, but quite frankly it IS the easiest. Anyone else do the same? BTW, I do NOT bribe my son all the time-no way! Only when he is being extremely stubborn.

I have just started my 8 month old on a schedule due to school and work going on in the house she needs a more of a schedule now. But the thing I'm having an issue with is I put her down for 2 1.5 hour naps do I start timing the naps from the time I lay her down even if she is not asleep or do I wait till she falls asleep and start timing. Like right now she is just playing in her crib. Is quite time as good as a nap at that age

I had a miscarriage 7/31/07. Bled for a week, it was like a period. My levels that day were only 13 so I'm assuming it was back to 0 in a few days. Last night I had my husband go buy a pregnancy test because I was feeling bloated and it came back positive, more darker than the lines on my last pregnancy tests. Is that a good sign? I havent had a period since the miscarriage, is there anyone who this happened to that ended up having a perfectly fine pregnancy? I'm trying to be happy but I really can't be that excited and I don't want to tell anyone because I'm scared I might miscarry again. (I was only 6 weeks when i miscarried and I wouldnt have even known I was pregnant if I didnt take the test, I would have thought my period was just late).

If you miscarry before 20 weeks do you have to have the fetus surgically removed? What about for twins? Reason I am asking is because my husbands ex wife made up this excuse (may have been true but she is a nut though) so he couldn't see his son this weekend...she said she and her husband were pregnant with twins and they both died so she had to have them surgically removed. She said she didn't tell anyone about the pregnancy because this might happen and it did (why tell anyone after??). I know she couldn't have been more than 20 weeks! Just curious because I do not buy it especially after the way she rants about NEVER having more kids mainly bc her son was born with a disorder her other children may have too.

My husband and I have paid in full for a trip to Orlando in November and plan to ride on a LOT of rides. We have been trying to get pregnant and I just want to be sure that if we did conceive before our trip, I wouldn't do any damage.

Hello. I am 12dpo/28cd and I've had a dip in my temperature this morning. After ovulation, my temps increased and fluctuated around 97.6-98.0. My coverline is 97.3 and today I checked with two different thermometers few times and read 96.6, 97.1, 96.8. I checked at the same time that I check every morning. Husband and I did come home late and didn't sleep till 2-3am. (I normally check at 6am). Also, we sleep with the ac/fan every night so I don't know if that made a difference.

My cycles can range 31-34 days so I still have few days until my period starts. Most of the charts that I've seen on fertilityfriend.com and tcoyf.com, the temp dips below coverline and period started. I have NO signed of period starting.

Do you think today's temp was a fluke, implantation dip or period will start in next few days?

I was listening to these old ladies talk about how it is unsafe to have kids so close together. I got pregnant again when my daughter was 4 months ( had a c-section) and I am just curious...Will this affect me or my unborn child because i didnt "have time to heal" ?

I'm very new to charting- am probably going to start next month.
I know that the cycle day that a woman ovulates is different for each woman, but I was wondering if ovulation days tend to be regular the same way that periods can be regular for a woman? For instance, if you find that you ovulate on day 16, do you always ovulate on day 16? Or does it always vary each month? And if it varies, how much? Is it usually within a 3 day time period, a 5 day time period, a 7 day time period?

And also, does having a regular menstrual cycle tend to give a person a more predictable (regular) ovulation day as well or no?

*I don't think I worded my questions very well, but hopefully everyone will understand what I'm asking* =)

Thanks in advance!

Usually my wife's period lasts for six/seven days. Three days before, period started for her. But, it seems that her period is stopped today (NO bleeding today). (We had intercourse yesterday). Does that made my wife conceived? We're very confused. If she is conceived now, does having intercourse aborts her pregnancy? Please clarify my doubt. We need a baby...

I dont think I ovulated. I seem to usually ovulate between CD18 and 23, and this month, right around when I was supposed to ovulate, I got sick (so frustrating!) so my temp chart has a few gaping holes in it and make it difficult to pin down exactly when I ovulated. Well, my temp went up after I was sick (yay) then the next day went back down to ALMOST what it was pre-ovulation (its .1 degree above where my coverline would be...I think) And it was at that today.

Does this mean I might not have ovulated?
Is it still possible that I did ovulate?
Could my cold have caused this?
If you dont ovulate does your CM still reflect a normal cycle?

heres my chart:

Im feeling so confused. I thought I really had this charting thing down, and then it throws me for a loop again.

The trouble I am referring to is pain and bleeding during sex, my last period lasted way longer than it should have and was alot heavier (more clots) too. Every since my last period, every time we have sex I start again for the whole day after. What could this be? Any words you could give me would be appreciated.
