I have been on birth control for about 2 years now. my boyfriend and i had sex about 2 weeks ago, and i had only one pack of birth control left so i was trying to make it last, and hadnt taken it in a few days. so i took two before we had sex. i havent taken a pill since, and usually that would cause my period to come, but it hasn't. i heard that if you have been taking birth control for a while, it makes it harder to concieve, but is this true? could i really be pregant? i don't really have any other symptoms?

also: how long does it take for you to start to show when you are pregnant?

I asked my sons school to do a iep test on him because he has alot of trouble with work, and he gets very frustrated and just then wont do it.

Well They were suppose to test him for a second time last year ,6 months after the first one becasue he was borderline, 2 % from receving resource help, so the teachers promised to help and in the beginning they did, but then they slacked as the year went on. Well I called them 2 weeks ago and told them this is new year and I want him tested. They now tell me the laws have changed and that they have to work together as a team to help him but they cant test him before they try other things first because it is the law, they can give them a label. I didnt ask them to label him but to test him due to he was so close for help last year and his grades are being affected 4 weeks into the school year. Any suggestion or anyone know anything on the new law change?

Not trying to be a modest parent, but our infant is barely 3 months old, yet it seems she's trying to crawl as well as a few other things. Before she will start crying due to being hungry, dirty diaper or just wanting attention, she'll start this baby talk...just simple sounds really but she looks us in the eye. If we dont get the point within a few minutes of this, she'll reach if she wants attention, kick her legs if she has a dirty diaper or make vocal noises while munching on her hand if she's hungry. I for sure know when she wants attention because she'll cry, then when i go in there(she seems to be a daddy's girl)...she'll just smile really big and try to tell me what she wants. She started lifting her head on her own just a couple weeks after birth, and started this 'baby talk' at like 6 weeks. The doc says her muscle tone is very good for her age as well. As for her parents, id like to think im quite a curious person, and the mom is very alert. Is she advanced for her age?

Im 38 weeks, and went to the doctors today and he checked me, he said the baby moved down into position, but the cervix is still closed. It hurt more this time when he checked me(from last week), and ive heard of doctors stripping your membranes. is there a way to tell if he did this or am i just more sensitive down there? ive been having more pressure down there since i went to the doctors also.
Im sooo ready to have this baby already!

Had my scan at 12 weeks and after that was given an appointment to see a consultant. The appointment is next week and the more I think about it, the more worried I'm getting. Like a fool, I didn't ask what the appointment was for after my scan, so now my imagination is running riot. I'm 35, my friend who is about 8 year's younger than me had her baby at the same hospital and didn't have a 16 week appointment with a consultant, so why do I have to? Does it mean that there are concerns after my scan? Or does it mean something else? So very worried and really could use some advice please.

A girl I work with got garage sale clothes from her mother-in-law at her baby shower. They weren't washed & still had the little stickers on them. She gave these to her as her gift & that was all. Is this acceptable?

I think it's okay to buy garage sale clothes, but not to give them as a baby shower gift.

I am 13 weeks pregnant and I have constant vivid dreams, not really regarding anything about the baby or birth, just dreams that are scary and or very sexual, is this somewhat 'normal', probably pertaing to hormones or something equally obvious?

staying "normal" well today my blood pressure was 140/100, I had +2 protein in my urine, and I gained 4 pounds in 4 days.... I know these are all signs of pre-eclampsia, but my doctor didnt seem TOO overly concerned. I'm scheduled to be induced on October 9th, and all my doctor did was told me to do ANOTHER 24 hour urine test and repeat the SAME blood work I did LAST week to double check everything. I've been getting bad headaches lately and told him about it, but all he said was a headaches can raise your blood pressure..... my question basically is should he have done something more, or should I just sit back and wait to find out the results to this blood work/urine test?
