After a miscarriage?

Suck pacifiers and bottles and wear diapers. Is it me or is that the weirdest thing. I would like to think that age 2 the parent would start weaning their child off these things and getting them out of their comfort zone, but maybe I'm wrong.

I feel bad for doing this. But anyway. But when my 10 week old daughter is at daycare and I am at school I barely think about her. I feel bad and dont no why. Is it ok to feel bad about this? I s it normal not to think of my daughter alot while at school?

Well my son is only 5months.. and is colic. He is exteremly tired but just is really fussy in the middle of the night. Its kinda hard to explain.. He like spaz's out. His arm always are constinly moving and his feet, but he is tryin so hard just to stay sleeping. He doesnt want a bottle or anything. YES he does sleep with me. i know horrible habit, but he will not sleep anywheres else. Ive tried everything too. Ill read him books, sing him songs rock him everything, and once i lay him down, hes right back up. He just doesnt seem to be comftorable or something. I dont know what to do for him. It kinda seems like he still doesnt havve control of his arms and what hes doing.

anyone have anything like the same kinda problem?

i don't know things have been messed up. i've been getting into arguments with my dad lately over stupid stuff really. and i admit my attitude hasn't been the best. my dad's been through a lot. just last year we lost my mom and newborn baby brother, not to mention, a few months after they adopted me (5 years ago), their oldest son died from leukemia. he had been sick for a while. now he's a single father trying to support me and my sibs, and sometimes i want to try to do all i can to help. other times, i go all psycho-maniac and i can't help but think i'm being more of a burden than a help to him. what can i do to be a better daughter?

Ok,have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years. Did Clomid last cycle days 5-9. Developed massive cysts on both ovaries. Pretty sure I ovulated (did not test but had all the tell tale signs). I am now officially 10 days late with two negative HPTs. Has anyone missed a period with Clomid before?
I am having slight nausea and alot of discharge but the mind is a funny thing so I don't want to get my hopes up. Dr. won't blood test for 7 more days. . .I am going crazy!

My fiance and I were talking about it the other day.

I got mine when I was about 8 1/2...just out of 2nd grade. My cousin got hers about that age too but my friend didn't get one until middle school....Just wondering, did we just get ours earlier than most people, or is this average?

And also, did your aprents make a big deal about it? Hers did, mine didn't. She was totally unprepared but I knew what was going on with my body..Is this how you felt?

I previously had an EP where the + was a VERY faint line. I just found out I'm 3 weeks pregnant, and the line was bolder even before my missed period. Could this mean that it's not an ectopic pregnancy this time around????

My daughter is 20 months old and a few weeks ago she was showing intrest in potty training, so I started training her. Well she's been using the bathroom some, so I switched to pull-ups and she used them pretty well until a few days ago. She stopped telling me and her soon-to-be-step-grandmother that comes over and her cousin that lives with me when she has to go to the bathroom and dirties the pull-up and doesn't tell any of us, so we have to smell it. And it's a hassle to change her. How can I get her to get back on track? I've tried everything from rewards to praise, what else should I try? She has a Dorah The Explorer (her favorite character) training toilet and now I'm lucky if she even sits on it!

Since my younger cousin got her gcse results and found out she has achieved 2 A*'s 3 A's and the rest B's is it wrong for me to feel envy over her because i got C's and D's basically i more or less failed! Is this evil to feel like jealous of her??

What happened to you?? I mean when did you first realize something was wrong? Did you have contractions at first or were there other symptoms? Did they stop your labor effectivly for a period of time?

Just curious to know other peoples stories.

I keep seeing "You got your period but it's still possible to be pregnant". Your period is when the lining and egg of the Uterus is bleed out. How can someone still have their period and be pregnant? It doesn't make any sense.

I am currently TTC, but the fact that I'm on my period throws me off. Is it a possibility or am I having wishful thinking?

If you had read my questions before, then I'm sorry for repeating, but I feel like it has gotten worse.

I was on my period for 35 days. It was more pink than red. Sometimes nothing but the normal color of pee would come out. It started to get heavier towards the last 2 weeks, but it finally stopped.

5 days later, its back on again, except this times, much heavier (not completely heavy, but it is actually coming out looking like blood now.) I have been on this one for 10 days now.

I have taken:
chlamydia---negatice
ghonorrea---negative
pap smear--normal
pregnancy test-negative
thyroid test---normal

my fiancee has taken:
chlamydia---negative
ghonorreah--negative
HIV---negative
AIDS---negative

so none of those are it. I was also prescribed the birth control pills and have been on them for almost a month now.
It doesn't lsound like it's working, does it???


PLEASE any possible scenarios of what might could be wrong with me?!?!?

My daughter is now 2 and a half. She is nearly ready to be potty trained but we're gonna hold off about another month until my husband gets back. But she knows when she has a dirty diaper. So every time i even go to check her, she runs away, and its VERY hard to even get near her to change her, she struggles all the way until her diaper is off. So i'm asking all you experienced moms out there for some help. I dont know if its something i'm saying or doing, but i need your help. What exactly would you say and do from checking her diaper all the way to getting it off? Give me everything you'd say and do, and i'll try it all! Thanks so much!

The last 3 days or so, My 2 year old, has been insisting that he go pee in the big boy potty.. Which I am ECSTATIC about, Well, I had put a diaper on him, so he could take his nap, And he peed in it, and them started screaming bloody murder, grabbing his crotch area, saying ouchie, ouchie...So I took his diaper off, and he had peed in it.
My question is, Do you think it's his actual pp that hurts? Or just that he didn't want to have the wet diaper on? His pp isn't red, and doesn't have any unusual bumps or anything, But he was very cautious when he sat down on my lap (after getting his diaper off and being put back into underwear) like maybe it was sore? I wouldn't be concerned, But he's uncircumcised, and I've heard it's caused problems and later they have to be circumcised?

Any help? Please?

I'm going to make him a doctors appt. tomorrow regardless...But, Just wanting some parent to parent advice and/or info beforehand. :)

Does anyone have any suggestions on some things I can do with my baby at home... she usually kicks her kicky toy, watches Dora, and Handy Manny, swings in her baby swing, tummy time on her tummy time mat, sits in her bouncer, and bebe pod, and we read... I'm sure she is getting bored with these same activities every day...I need some new ideas.

I was messing around with my husband about 9-12 days from the start of my period. And at first he just put his penis against my vagina, lightly (he didn't go in). Then he put a condom on and didn't go in all the way and then we put a blanket in between his penis and my vagina. And he came with the condom on while the blanket was between us. But without the condom on he didn't ejaculate. What is the chances that I am pregnant? I am feelings sort of weak and aches and not myself.

I'm 37 weeks pregnant and 2 cm dilated. The doctor wants to induce me at 38 weeks but i'd rather do it more naturally. I've been reading alot of info on the "red rassberry leaf tea" and the "balck cohosh". As anyone used them or know anymore information? I've read alot of mixed things for both so I'm a bit lost on what to do.....
I was 3 weeks overdue with my son which is why they want to induce as well as this one is causing ALOT of pain for me.

At first my HCG Levels were going up but slowly; however within a couple of days it jumped from 498 to 1808. I should be at about 4-5 weeks pregnant. At first docs thought that this was an ectopic pregnancy but they have ruled that out. I've had about 4 sonos in the past 2 weeks and nothing is in my uterus. I am seeing 2 OBGYN Docs, one says that I best just take an injection to dissolve whatever is within me and then my body will juat absorb it. The other says there is nothing to do but just wait and have blood test for about two to three more weeks. I'm scared I've been bleeding for the past week but have no pain. Doc said if I was to bleed and have pain, I'm actually going thru a miscarriage but there is no pain. I had actually been bledding before but it stopped. Is this normal? What shoul I do? I really want to go thru w/ this pregnancy since this is my first after 3 years of marriage.

For you ladies who have given birth: What do you think about these celebrities having "planned" c-sections? I am talking about the ones like Angelina Jolie who did not medically NEED a csection, but had one anyway for convenience?

He seems that he hates to eat. It's been like this since the beginning. We don't mind too much that he doesn't eat. He eats what he needs. But how do we stop the screaming? He is already small (in weight)-10%, he's 75% in height.
