Hello all,

My situation: 26 weeks and 2 days pregnant with my first baby; it's a boy =]

My problem: thigh/hip cramps and had sore feeling in my pelvic/lower tummy area for 2 days. Did this happen to anyone during their 6 month? Did your baby come early (if this was your first baby)?

My worry/concern: Seems like a lot of women are lactating now (in their 6 month) and I'm not yet. I know that it may happen after delivery but I'm just really afraid that the milk won't come. Not for any particular reason, it's just a concern. I really want to breastfeed but if I can't is there a formula out there that is really close to breastmilk as far as vitamins and nuturients go?

Please answer these three questions if you can. Thank you for all your help =]

I just found out I'm pregnant, and I'm wondering about decaffeinated coffee, non alcoholic beer and wine. Does anyone drink these things? I have organic decaff, so it doesn't use all the chemicals. Do the non-alc stuff have any alcohol in them at all? I'm hoping not, b/c I think that would be a nice alternative once in a while.

My boyfriend thinks he might ejaculated a little inside of me, I'm really worried my periods usually come a couple of days late every time. My last period was on the 1st of last month but I've tried at least 7 tests all negative is it still to early to tell or is 13 days enough?

Hello,
my daughter of 4 still uses her pacifier on a daily basis. Following the advice of my mom and aunt I decided to operate the hole method: 2 days ago I punctured the end of the pacifier with a needle to remove the stimulating effect of the sucking. After a few minutes of irritation my daughter still keeps the pacifier in her mouth each day. What was my mistake? Who can contribute successful experiences with the hole method? Will the child eventually give up the damaged pacifier after a few days of her own accord?
Greetings from germany !

What did you do during the first 6 months? My ppd is more like ocd. im sad and when i clean i feel better. The problem is my ocd is getting worse and when i start to clean i get stuck doing something until it is perfectly clean and in order! I have a schedule for everything including my sons feeding and nap time! i have that part down and i do play with him but i feel like im not doing enough.. I try to take him outside when i get a chance or if im doing yardwork. But most of the time his outside time is spent with daddy. I was just wondering if any other moms (with the first baby) ever felt like that and what did you do with your baby?

I have a 3 & 5 yr. old. Since I have birthed these to wonderful kids, I have never been able to go to the bathroom by myself when I am taking care of them by myself, even during that certain time of the month...The only thing I can see good about this is that my kids learned how to go potty while watching me go potty..
I've even had to stop fights and arguments, etc. while trying to poop! The worste times have been when the kids have decided to climb! while I'm on the toilet..
As a parent, have you ever managed to go to the bathroom, even during that time of the month, without an audience, when you were alone with your kids???
Any stories? about this?

I'm wondering if the routine changes when cutting the cord. We want to donate the cord blood, but my husband would like to cut the cord when the baby's born. Will he still be able to do that or will the doctor have to do it for donation purposes?

So I had my period three times in july and I had no period for the month of august or september. I went to the OB in september and I had a pap and a pregnancy test and it came out negative. that was on the 15th of september I started the patch on the 16th of september. I got my period from oct 19th through the 27th it was a normal period with clots and everything. It was also heavy. Yesterday I felt a little weird so I took a pregnancy test and it came out positive. When and how did I get pregnant if on birth control and with a period?

I know this American woman, and she has university education, and she showed me her girl, 7 years old daughter, dressed for Halloween, and then she showed me the photos... I have never seen anything so awful in my life. She put her into a very short checkered skirt, with her underwear visible, very high, tights high brown boots on heels, a blonde wig, and put a lot of make up: mascara, bright red blush, foundation and lipstick... The effect was appalling. Shouldn't the girl of her age be a Little Red Riding Hood, or a snowflake (as I was many a time, with the frilled lacy tutu), or something... childish. I remember my parents dressed me once as a Queen of chess, in a long checkered skirt with a real crown they made from wire and glass, and it glistened so, and I was the happiest girl in the room. But to dress your little girl like some escort? And how did teachers in her school swallowed it?

my son has been sleeping throughout the night since he was 2 months old. about three weeks ago he started waking up numerous times in the middle of the night. hours vary. 3 am, 4 am, 5 am. usually it's between 3-5 times at night. although he doesn't cry it's more like a "help me guys" type of babbling. haha. 99% of the time i find him wedged in the corner of his crib. he's definately a wiggler. he's even wiggled his way in the corner when he slept in his pack and play. he sleeps on his stomach, back, sides. which ever way is comfortable for him. he takes regular naps during the day. eats fine. he's usually asleep by 9ish. sometimes earlier, sometimes later. doesn't matter what time he falls asleep, he always wakes up in the middle of the night. ive read tons of books on sleeping patterns. but me, i dont go by books. i go by motherly instinct and its helped me so far since day one. anyone else have this happen with the baby? any suggestions becuase ive ran out...

Im 17 weeks pregnant.I have been with my boyfriend going on 3 years now.I had a scan at 9 weeks,its fair to say we are not in the best time in our life to afford a baby,but at the scan he seemed excited after seeing it&was even arguing about whether it was a boy or girl! However the day after the scan he totally flipped&said he didnt want the "thing" so "get rid of it".And hes been like that pretty much ever since,Hes so cold hearted towards me&all he keeps saying is how expensive they are&how we wont be able to go on holiday next year.So hes taking me to a clinic on monday morning to talk to someone about having an abortion.I dont want to have an abortion but i dont want him to hate me&think im having the baby to spite him because im really not,I love him so much but i just know i dont want an abortion but i dont wanna do it alone.Nobody knows im pregnant, his family will REALLY overreact&make out like the world is ending, mine wont be that thrilled either.I dont know whats best,help!
