Pregnancy & Parenting - 19 October 2007

I am 7 1/2 weeks pregnant. I was taking Clomid and got pregnant on the first cycle. I just went to the doctor this morning and he said that he couldn't see a heartbeat through the ultrasound. He said the sac has grown but the fetus hasn't gotten bigger. He said that I will miscarry. My concern is maybe I am not as far along as he said I am. I know that in six weeks doctors can usually detect a heartbeat. I am not feeling any back pain or anything and I have not began bleeding. If you all have been through this before please let me know. Should I get a second oppinion?

My daughter was gonna try this the other night! Standing right up to the toilet, at least she asked me first! LOL Apparently she saw a little boy her age at the sitter's who does that. It totally caught me off guard, but it was kinda cute in an innocent way, ya know? Kids...

My 15 year old daughter just came to live with me. She lived with her father from age 10 to 15. I live in a different state than her father.

She keeps throwing tantrums while studying. Last night, she was studying for a Chemistry test and then all of sudden she started pushing me and threw all of her books around. She then started crying and would not study for about 1 hour.

I tried to leave her alone and she said "Thanks for making me fail." I then ended up staying up until 11 p.m. to quiz her for her test. My father also made a test for her and she finally did it at 11:30 p.m.

She keeps sayings that she hates living with me and has given up on school and wants to get a D.

Then, she says that "We don't get along."

I don't know how to handle her. If I leave her alone to study, she ends up getting D's. If I try to help her, she fights me and gets upset.

What should I do?

Does the urge to reproduce outweigh the financial responsibility to one's offspring?

everything in this adolescent area is about sex, drugs, suicide, crushes, bla bla bla
isn't there other topics?
not that i don't like Yahoo! Answers Adolescent, i do, but it's getting boring with people asking the same questions.
don't say i should go to another department, my favourite is the adolescent site.
BUT WHY IS IT ALL ABOUT Sex, Drugs, Alcohol, who-loves-who, Who-is-cheating-on-me
Btw, I'm 15

My daughter is 3 and still is not going on the potty, is this terribly abnormale? Should I worry?? I am worrying and I dont know what to do to help her want to go on the potty. She has gone on the potty before and I have tryied all kinds of suggestions from other people. I even tried to just put her in her little girl panties and just let her walk around the house but all she did was pee all over the place and I got frusterated and tired of cleaning it up. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

As always, thanks in advance!!

My friend pulled me to one side at school this morning she works there and looks after the nursery class that my son is in, half of the children that were in his class moved up to reception in september including his best friend but he doesn't move up until january but he has started to play with another little boy in his class and has started to get into trouble he even got put on the wall yesterday. I know someone out there is going to say "o and your kids an angel i suppose" but my son is usually a good child he's never been put on the wall before or been in trouble and my friend even said its not my son its the other kid but my son is just going along with him. What do i do? can i really tell my 4 year old hes not allowed to play with this kid?

Since I have been reading all about vaccines and autism, I hear that single shots of MMR vaccines given at different times are a safer way. (Dr. stephanie cave). Does anyone know if these are available, where and when? My son is due to be vaccinated for his 1 year shots and I am paranoid. I have decided not to give him MMR till he is 18 months old.

My daughter, 20 months, loves to drink her bathwater. I tell her not to and take the cup away, but she'll just lap it straight from the bath! She loves bath time, but this bugs me - should it?
