i am trying to weigh out my options...i have severe panic attacks and have to be on some medicine. im taking vistaril right now but its not as good as zanex. i HAVE to have something or i can not make it. i work a full time job and dont have enough time to pump at work. she will have to start daycare at 6 weeks. i understand that breastmilk is what is best but i cant be on anything and feed her at the same time. i feel guilty for it, ecspecially when i have other mothers telling me that basicly it is what is best for her no matter what im going through.
could you tell me the pros and cons of breastfeeding and not breastfeeding

She is 42 years old, but she looks younger than her age and she's a very healthy woman. She already have four kids, including me. I'm the eldest, and have two brothers and a sister. Do you think it's a good idea for her to have another baby? =/

Yes, I asked this morning, but I'm asking again-wondering if you were diagnosed with gestational diabetes, what if any symptoms did you have? The few answers I got this morning said they had no symptoms really. That surprises me.

Thanks!

Oh-I have googled this info several times and found out what the basic symptoms are-BUT I am wanting to know your personal experiences with it.

I've been listing a lot of twin names lately... Started with Remy and Rory, but have realized that maybe matching rhyming twin names aren't the best. So, I was just wondering.... what do you think of these for boy/girl twins;
Remy Ethan
Chantal Renee

My daughter has had a fever for 4 days now. the first day her fever was at 101 and gave her childrens tylenol.. So then the next morning her fever went up to 102.6 so then i took her to urgent care that morning. I have also gave her childrens tylenol that morning too and when we got there they took her temp and they said that her temperature was normal 98.6 (because of the med.) well the doctors said that she ok and that its just a viral infection. and just to keep giving her med. So later that afternoon i went back to work. I had to get off early again cuz her temperature went up 103.7 that evening so then i took her to the ER. when we got to the ER they took her temp her temp was still in the 103 range and they had gave her motrin. After waiting in the ER they had directed me to urgent care (the same place i went that morning) and they told me the same exact thing.. that my daugher was fine she has a normal temp of 98.6 and right there i knew that they were lying cuz i took her temp

I have post partum depression, and I had my daughter 3 months ago and I am also anemic. I have been very dizzy and headaches and had some fevers. I have been really weak also. I just started work on Oct 1st and I have missed 5 days already beacuse of my illness. My insurance got canceled for a month, so I couldn't get any meds or see my doctors... so I tried to call them now because it is back and set up and now my doctors won't take me today because it is not an emergancy- so I am confused I know that I can't go to the hospital but I have to contact my insurance and let them know who my new doctor is before I can change! What can I do?? I am out of meds and I am about to lose my job because of my anemic... I can't be passing out really in training class... So i need some advice thanks

I think they should get life for abusing/enabling abuse. What do you think?

If one parent knew that the other parent was being mean, verbal abusing, having control over everything in the child's life (Do not know about hitting though with who i am talking about),
What do you think should happen to them?

My son is 28 months old and has just in the past 2 weeks developed excessive whining over everything! It drives me nuts but even more so than that makes me feel like there might be something wrong that I'm missing, I have had him in earlier this week and they found a very minor ear infection but that was it. He will whine about what we play, how we play, if I tickle him, just weird things that he usually enjoys, now he whines and tells me no. This is my 1st child so I was hoping some other parents could give me imput on if this is a new "stage". Thanks

I am 28 & she is 18.
We look of same age & are in love.
She says that she loves me but keeps on asking me my income & tells me to buy a new & bigger home & often says me as HOW WILL SHE CONVINCE HER PARENTS?

In the beginning of relationship i said that i will marry you only if your parents are happy.
But her parents are old aged 68 & 56 yrs resp.

She enjoys me on bed & forgets all the world & says that i love you & i will not marry anyone else & i will myself convince my parents "& all that stuff
But next day she again changes her statements.

If anyone knows GIRLS then tell me how do i tackle her questions??????????

How do I get my 16 month old son to eat more slowly? He crams his food in all at once. Then, his mouth is too full and he spits out big gobs of food. Any advice aside from feeding him myself or only putting one piece of food on the plate at a time?

is it because i exclusively pump. when my baby was born, my boobs leaked during the second week but since he didn't latch on all i did is pump so i didn't notice any milk in my pads!!! is that normal?
does it mean that weaning will be easier?

been in and out of jail for drugs/robbery, recently shot because gang bangers after him and drinks heavily? He is real nice but tons of problems. We want to go out but don't have a sitter avail so my husband thought to ask her. I said if she comes to our house alone I don't mind but now its a problem because the boyfriend wants to come and they want to take our son (10 yrs) miniature golfing. This guy was just shot in June because people are after him for snitching on some drug dealers. My step daughter says there is no problem now so am I being paranoid to say no? My husband had the nerve to say for me to make the decision..what a dumb a**. Now my mom is saying give them a chance. My son is at an impressionable age. I don't want him influenced negatively or worse they have him try pot or something and say don't tell your mom. I have all these scenarios in my head. I know I have mental issues but that's beside the point. I just want feedback not putdowns or I'll block you.

Im 38 weeks & 1 day....
So, i have been achy all day and started having contractions. My stomach and back hurt. Alot of menstural like cramping, MY stomach feels tight like it does when you have to tight of pants on. I took shower, did hair, did make-up, cleaned dishes. Im still tryin to do some things even though im hurting! OKAY...So..I went to the bathroom and there was blood on the toilet paper. Not like chunks but more like streaks. I went to bathroom again and nothing..So it was just that one time. I was in the hospital last week and was dialated 2cm and i was having contrax consistently 2-5 mins apart but dr sent me home being only 2cm. This is the same crampy i was feeling.
I am not sure what I should do. My dr is outta town till Nov.4 so i have 2 c the dr on call. Do dr's on call induce you if you are making some progress and just want to speed things up? I am not sure what to do...Hubby is @ work till 3 so Im trying to wait for him to get home!!

Here's the thing I have been married almost six years and I really want to have a baby but to be honest my husband is not good looking and a weakling sissy type. I am seeing a man who is far more attractive and strong and I think he comes from better stock. The issue here is that I would like to have my boyfriend be the biological father but my husband be the baby's father in every other way. My husband is much more trained and domesticated for such a task. My husband feels hurt by the fact I don't want our kids to be biologically his but I know I can get him to do whatever I want when push comes to shove. The question for me is do you think I am wrong for wanting a better stock for my kids? Hubby thinks so?
