I'm exclusively breastfeeding and have been for 3 1/2 months and I eat fish at least 3 times a week. Is that ok?

My son sometimes since he was a baby just is sitting there acting fine and then out of nowhere his tummy hurts and then he's on the way to the bathroom to throw up (if he makes it that is). Then immediately after , he's fine . He doesnt even act sick. I try to ask him what he ate earlier and it's never consistent with the same things. He doesnt eat too much and is not a big junk food eater at all. If anything, he loves spinich and broccoli believe it or not.

Anyway have a kid like that or have any suggestions?

I was wondering if homosexuality is really a biologicial issue, or could have a majority determination basedon the parents influance on the child? After reading this, http://medsocial.com/safe/viewblog.aspx?blogaction=viewblog&show=681 it got me to thinking. My parents fought alot and my father was distant and my mother over nurturing, and I am homosexual, stuck in an abusive cycle with other men, so this makes sense to me.

He grunts when he is eating like he is starving and even when he is not eating , he is grunting and kicking and waving his arms around. Also sometimes he just screams like he's in pain while i feed him or lay him down sometimes. It drives me crazy especially since i just started back to work and he does this through the night too.

the night. She wakes up for a bottle 3 times a night and she is almost 1 yr old already! I can't let her cry it out at night because she will keep my son up. I was wondering if I let her cry it out during the day with her naps will it help with the night time.

I recently had my baby via emergency c-section. i was so adamantly against the idea of ever having one, and God thought it would be funny to give me just that. I've been emotionally wrecked ever since over the whole experience, I feel like a bad mom, not a strong woman, and that i really didn't give birth to my child, because to me, the doc cutting me open and pulling my baby out of my stomach required nothing of me. he did all of the work. i am just destroyed over this and don't know what to do.

Seems like whenever an adoptee says that they feel like they were bought and sold they are told otherwise. Besides the fact that adoption is a multi-billion dollar BUSINESS - how is it I'm not supposed to feel like a commodity when I come on Yahoo (and other sites) and see "what is the easiest country to adopt from," "what's the quickest way to adopt," "how does one unadopt," "where can I find a birthmom," "I want a healthy boy," "I'd like to adopt a girl," "I want an infant"? How are we supposed to feel like adoption was in our best interest when clearly it is about the interest of the adoptive parents?

ALEXIS OR ALEXIA? I like Alexia myself...If I have a girl I'm not going to use Alexandra or Alexandria so you guys don't have to bother to mention those =] Thanks so much! Also if you could have any other name in the world what would it be (serious answers lol) or what is your favorite name (girl names)?

My father was adopted and refuses to get his medical records and birth records even though my sister and I have begged him to. It's important to us for our own medical reasons and if we have children. He will not get them for us. Is there anyway I can get his records without involving him, as there is no way he'd help?

parent have the right to keep an older sibling from seeing their younger siblings? I am hoping to get custody of my younger siblings aged 7 and 5 if my mother and step father happen to die in the near future. I looked up child custody laws on the Internet and from what I found it seems like the courts never give custody of younger siblings to the older sibling but there is custody for grandparents. I don't want my siblings going to their grandparents because they will keep me from seeing my brother and sister and I don't want them to be thrown in foster care either and have my sister get pregnant by the time she is 12 or have something else happen to her if they were to get thrown in foster care. My step father smokes so I figure he should die soon enough. He smokes around 3-5 packs of cancer sticks a day. I haven't found any legal advice or help on the Internet and I know if my step father doesn't die and my mom does that I'll never get custody of my younger siblings.

My daughter is in the second grade and please don't flame me for saying this,but I am SICK AND TIRED of her school ALWAYS sending home notes that they want parents to give money for this,that,or the other. The other day she brought home a paper that the school wants new mats for their gym walls,and the school was asking parents for donations of $25.00 or more.

Now,I don't know about anyone else,but we live on a very tight budget and we can't give money constantly to every little thing because we do have bills to pay like everybody else. It wasn't enough that we had the school supply list from you-know-where,and now they are asking EVERY WEEK for money for something else?

I don't mind sending money for field trips or something like that,but when did all of us parents become a bank? We don't have any family to help us out with anything,so we live on a very tight budget like alot of other families do. How do you feel about this,please share your thoughts and feelings about this!

Man i am good! I have a son in 1st grade. He came home with a spelling test with a 40 F. I started looking at it and I was confused because the works looked spelled right to me. Maybe a letter or two backwards or something but they were right. I wrote a note to the teacher explaining how i felt and he changed the grade to 90 A and wrote a note saying he was sorry, he just couldnt read it untill i said that and then he looked harder.

I was so happy i stuck it in his school memories book to look at when he get's older.

My first day of my last period was Aug.18th. I had sex on the morning of Aug.30th and again in the afternoon of Sept. 2nd. I believe I ovulate every 30 days. Could it be possible that I may be pregnant? I took a pregnancy test on Sept. 11, 12 & 13th and they were all negative. I'm confused, because I really feel pregnant. I have headaches and full - sore breast with veins now showing, along with cramping that I have never experienced before. It's almost like it's coming from my lower part of my abdomen off and on. Am I just taking the pregnancy test too soon? Thanks for you help.
