How do I show my fiance' that I truly care?
I am 36 weeks pregnant, and it hasn't been the easiest of pregnancies. My fiance' Nic does all he can do to hang in there, and he helps me out alot with odds and ins from tying my shoe to cleaning my house, to shaving my legs lol yep he does it all. I want to give something back to him...what should I do? We are on a budget with the new baby on its way and all so I can't spend a ton of money but I want it to be something that Nic will remember. Please help! Thank you:)

I am currently expressing from both breasts and feeding the milk to my 3week old son 3 ounces with a bottle. He seems to get hungry (voracious) every 2 hrs or so and his stools have changed from yellow cottage cheese consistency to a mustardish runny poo which he does with a big passing of wind at almost every feed. He is gaining weight really well. Is this normal?

I was wondering how much does birth control pills cost at the free clinic?What about planned parenthood?I was on birth control to regulate my period but our insurance ended . I wont go back on it since we dont have insurance right now and there is no real reason to be on birth control other than to regualte my periods.But if i do become sexually active(hypothetical question)before we get new insurance or if im not included on it after we get it i would like to know the cost and where to get it the cheapest and easiest.Im 17 by the way and sorry for asking a odd question.Thanks for answering.

Im the only child AND indian so this complicates things lol. Im getting my licence/car in about a month so i can drive to see him and vice versa and im getting a job.I maintain good grades in school but i dont think that responsibility is convincing my mom. What should i do? thanks!

Just vote on your first instinct, no need to explain or suggest other names. I can't change the middle name even though it's not my fave.

I had a ultrasound yesterday and she said that I had a egg sack still in the placenta. I never heard of an egg sack at this age. It looks just like another head to me. Nothing is connecting to the egg sack from the embryo. I have terrible morning sickness and gaining weight like crazy. Does it sound like it could be twins to you? Please only serious questions only. Thanks a million 80)!!

last year, i was a straight A student. i landed 1 b because i wasnt on top of my science quiz, and this year, i decided i want to be a teachers assistant, rather than being in home ec like last year. my dad is mad at me because he thinks im taking the easy way out. so, this week, in PE, were doing running, and my allergies are flaring up, and i dont breathe so well because my throat is full of mucus, and i need a note to be out of running so i dont pass out, and now, i just got out of a yelling session from him because im "taking the easy way out"

FYI being a teachers assistant is a pass/fail, and makes my other classes have a larger effect on my gpa,

im also in algebra, (highschool class)

my parents expect me to have straight As otherwise they will tighten down, and restrict me, no tv, no laptop, nothing. and im really starting to snap under the strain.
home ec wasnt my thing it was good at it, but i didnt like it.

IS this truly fair? do they have the right to do this?

Anyone else have newborns take forever to eat? I have twins, so yes, I realize it will take twice as long. However, each takes up to an hour, sometimes more to eat. I seems like sometimes they want to eat, rest for 30-45 minutes, then eat again. So, I am feeding them all day! They were born preemie, so I know I have to take that into account, but just wondering about your newborns eating habits. Thanks.

What are some tips for keeping your child dry through the night? My 2 year old son is fully potty trained during the day but still has to wear a diaper at night? Any tips would be helpful! Thanks so much!

Her middle name is set(my grandmothers name) and of course I can't change her last name either.

i work in a pediatric clinic and on a daily basis there are atleast 10-12 children on ADHD medication. why do parents always think adhd is the problem and oh quick we need concerta or adderall to fix our child. honestly a 5yr old does not have adhd maybe they're just hyper. doesnt anyone know that ADHD is the most misdiagonosed disorder. seriously parents get over the ADHD label.
