when you get a blood test for pregnancy, do they give you the results right then, or do you have to wait to get them?

Ok, my last period was at the end of May. Me and my boyfriend usually don't use a condom but he pulls out. I've had a few of the symptoms pf pregnancy, like nausea, fatigue, heartburn A LOT, I have to pee more then usual, I cry a lot, and I'm gaining weight. A couple days ago I went to the fair and rode some rides. My lower abdomen/ovary area started cramping up. I've taken like 5 ept's and they all say negative. I don't know whats going on... Is it all in my head?

I got some great answers to my last question regarding tantums and people staring.

But for those of you who told me its my fault, bad parenting, spoilt child etc etc

someone even said that at that age they should know right from wrong and shouldnt have the oppurtunity to have a tantrum!!

Could you please tell me what you would do with a child of that age?

My daughter is pulling up and I am just wondering when she will begin to walk on her own without any support.

Hi guys, I'm in my fifth week of pregnancy, and last night, I was sitting on the ledge of my tub. I went to push back but ended up flopping down really hard (kinda like going to sit down but coming down really hard). I wasn't in major pain or anything after but I've been having bad cramps in my lower left abdominal region ever since. Is it possible that I could have hurt the baby or maybe bruised my uterus somehow? I would totally call a doctor and ask but I haven't had my first prenatal visit. Am I overreacting? I'm so scared I might be causing a miscarriage :(

Ok...I've taken a few pregnancy tests, and they've come up negative. I have a little bit of morning sickness in the morning, sometimes I feel nauseous throughout the day. My boobs hurt. I tried squeezing them a little bit this morning to see if they leak at all and they do. But the weird thing is that my hips hurt, some times worse than others. My boyfriend had suggested that maybe I am pregnant, but maybe its too early, or maybe it's ectopic. I've read up on ectopic pregnancies and also have a friend that went thru one and what I'm feeling doesn't seem the same. I called my Dr yesterday and had his assistant fax over to St. Joe's a requisition for blood work, but I'm thinking now that maybe I should also have an ultrasound requisition faxed over. Is it possible to be pregnant and just be too early to tell with a test yet? Or could it be ectopic? Thank you!

I don't necessarily mean showing to everyone around you.. I just want to know when you all could feel your bump for the first time

Especially those who have no connection to the adoption triad (birthparent, adoptee, adopter)? Who are people trying to protect?

I believe that adoptees should have access to their original birth certificate and records so that they can search if they choose to. I believe that the birthparents should have access to the same info for the same reason.

Why would anyone be against this????

There is a girl that has been at my daughters school for 2 years now. She is the youngest in their 4th grade class and it shows.
She is the type to be your friend on minute and drop you the next, then be your friend again (cycle repeats).

Anyway my daughter became friends with this little girl- lets call her Milly. Then another added the group- Sadie.
They were all BFF. So Milly decides its time to drop both of them for someone else. Typical.
So my daughter and the other girl (Sadie) became best friends- for like 3 weeks. This was the closest friendship my daughter had really had up to this point.
Anyway so Milly comes back along and asks the girls to play again. they were both politely dismissive of her. (I warned my daughter- to still be nice and to not saying anything bad about one to the other- remember those days).
No problem, a week passes. Then Milly comes to school with Hannah Montana tickets and asks Sadie to go to the concert with her. She has stop being my daughter's friend

I am 33 weeks pregnant with our first (and miracle) baby. The past month, I have been experiencing excruciating pain at night, running underneath the fullest part of my belly, down under my crotch, and inside my legs. When I get up to use the bathroom or go to roll over, it literally feels like I'm frozen up because it's so intense. As if someone has contracted some huge muscle in that region, incapcitating me from movement and causing it to shoot stabbing pain.
Is this round ligament pain?? And if so, why would it be happening at night when I'm resting, instead of during the day when I'm active?

We went on a family holiday and my 2 daughters age 7 and 5 spent a lot of time with their 12year old boy-crazy cousin.
As a result they are now talking a lot (too much!) about who they love and who loves them. Its becoming a daily dicussion. Before this holiday it was never even mentioned - they are so young.
I have said that they are too young for this - as they are too young to have a boyfriend. I have also talked of boys just being friends and I also try to distract them - but I fear the influence of their 'cool' cousin has really influenced them.
I feel as though this has been introduced far too young - how do I help them regain their childhoods?
Advice please?

I read that the best postion for sleeping is to lay down on your left side..but as for me I prefer right side or laying on my back but not much on my left side.. would that effect my baby?
and how do you lay down? and what is your best position?

What do you do to seperate yourself from your child's friend? To make them know that you are their parents whom they should be respectful?

I am 16 weeks pregnant and was told I have a kidney and UTI on sunday. I am taking macrodantin for it but my back is hurting so bad right over my left kidney. I called the dr to make an appointment as soon as they opened and they have no appointments (my ob has no appts and my regular dr has no appts). I was told by the urgent care doctor that if i wasnt feeling any better today i needed to see the doctor again. They have an appointment tomorrow afternoon but i dont think i can wait that long. What should I do? Should I go to the ER and get checked out or what? thank you so much for any advice, im just really worried about this hurting the baby.

am very upset. My son is such a good little baby, but over the past month he has not been himself lately. The right side of his face is much larger then the left and his eye is so swollen. I have taken him to 4 different doctors and they all said "we thinks" and "maybes" and noone can tell me anything. They all make it seem normal and like im paranoid. Over the past three days hes actually been vommiting ( not spitting up) 5 + times and hes been very fussy,not like him at all. He had another eye doctor appointment today and his eye looked awful. They spent 10 minutes and took three flash photos (all at the childrens hospital) and told me his eye was swollen (duh) and his lip was droopy (duh) and a bunch of other stuff I already knew. I was sitting holding my son when I heard the docs mention his name and saying that they found a little something in the pictures, but they didnt think that it was that big of a deal to do anything with. This has ben going of for weeks. Help. am i crazy

She is 1 1/2 years old and I just think she is too big for it. During the day she will do fine without it, but for naps and bedtime she needs it. Or she thinks she needs it.
