I'm having three miscarriages in one pregnancy. I was pregnant with triplets and I'm miscarrying all three at the same time! What do I need to expect? I'm 13 weeks pregnant. Almost starting week 14. I think I'm starting to dilate. How long will it take my body to pass triplets? How much blood should I expect?

I am on CD 24 or an irregular cycle (never less than 15 days, but never more than 31 days). I have one pregnancy test, a First Response. When should I use it, in your opinion?

I was going to wait until CD 30, but I'm not sure...

I don't take my dog to children parks!

A general observation: most children only know how to behave around their own dog and not others.

For example, at child picked up a toy the dogs were playing with and put it over his head. The dogs thought he was playing keep away and jumped up to get the toy and one of the dogs knocked over the child. Mom gets mad but I say, why did you bring your kid in here anyways???

I’m frustrated. I just lost my baby a little over a month ago and it seems like no one understands what I am going through and it’s frustrating me. It wasn’t a miscarriage even though I was only 23 weeks. He wasn’t a still born because he lived for 10 hours. He was my baby and now that he is gone I feel so empty. My friends just keep telling me to look at it as an experience and they don’t understand why it hurts me to look at a newborn. Even hearing a newborn cry makes me upset because I never had a chance to hear my baby cry, he was immediately put on a ventilator to help with his breathing. I don’t want to be a B*tch to my friends but sometimes I just want to scream at them. How can I make them understand what I am going through? Can someone who has never been pregnant ever understand what it is to lose a child?

Please no rude comments. Thank you.

I resently stsarted colledge and I was really suprised at how immature and unintllegent some of thd stewdents in my clases are. Its just like shcool, peaple are throughing paper airoplanes around and argeuing with the teachers. One guy can hardely spell his own name! It has become apparant that a lot of the stewdents in my classes are ther just for the moniey. Yes, poor unecudated stewdents from poor unecudated backgrounds get given £30 from the govement a week.

I will be going back to work full time 3 months after my baby is born. I will have the space and time to pump while there, but there are so many options for breast pumps on the market, I was just wondering what were some recommendations.

I was cleaning up his laundry the other day and happened across a questionable magazine in his room. It was filled with un-Godly material! I'm sure that some girl must have left it there by accident. I don't want to make a big deal about this, but I also want to let him know that sneaking girls into our house is not okay.

How should I let him know that he's not allowed to fool around any longer?

What is the best way to put a baby down for a nap. Currently, my 1.5 month old falls asleep wherever I am during the day but I'd like to start him on a nap routine. What's the best way to go about doing this. It's difficult getting him to go down in his crib or bassinet.

i've done a lot of research (contrary to what said people believe) and the more research i've done, the more i'm for having a natural childbirth (barring serious complications, of course)

people jump all over pregnant women for not doing everything in the best interest of their unborn child, yet they don't see that that is what myself & others like me are trying to do by having a natural childbirth.

for example, you wouldn't condone cocaine or heroine use by a pregnant woman, right? so why should narcotic derivatives of those drugs be suitable for childbirth?? (Novocaine, nubain, demerol, stadol, etc. are all in the same drug class as cocaine & heroine).

also, epidurals & spinal blocks, which are quite useful in some instances, have many potential side effects including fetal distress, maternal paralysis, worsening of asthma, spinal headaches, back problems, increased risk of c-section, slowing labor, etc. So why should it be pushed on everyone?? Why should a woman wanting to AVOID those risks be laughed at?

I was offered a blood test for my next appointment that checks for down syndrome and other nueral tube defects. I am not at a high risk age and neither me or the father have autism, mental retardation or anything like that in our family and I have been taking my prenatal vits. My family is encouraging me to do this test, but I dont know if it is right, my risk is low for these things I need some opinions please

There's this girl who works at my place, she is 15, I am 16. We were getting on well and then I found out she has like a 19 year old boyfriend with a fast car and most likely facial hair and a big penis. Seriously though, these guys must be complete retards to go out with someone 4 years younger than themselves. Its annoying because they are taking all the lasses that are my age. What next, I'll probably be going out with 11 year olds?
