I am 35 weeks pregnant. And earlier today I was having some pretty painful contractions that were 10 minutes apart. They felt N0THING like the braxton hicks. I also think I lost my mucus plug. The contractions have been ongoing ALL DAY. (like 10 minutes apart) I went to the hospital triage and they sent me home! I am now spotting. Could this be true labor or is it approaching really soon? When I went to the doctor yesturday I was already 1 cm dialted! How soon until I go into labor?

How soon can a stethoscope detect the babies heartbeat? Can it detect the heartbeats as early as four weeks? Also, one more miscarriage question. They day before my triplet miscarriage all of the triplets heartbeats was out of rhythm. They would beat twice. I wouldn't hear anything until five seconds. Then I would slow weird sounding heartbeats. What was the cause of the miscarriage? It was not a healthy heartbeat.

We have a son named Jonah and we are considering Nina Grace or Nina Lucille (Lucille after my Grandmother) for our second child. We like Nina because it means "beautiful eyes" in my husbands Indian/Hindu heritage. However, the -ah and -a endings are causing me to pause. I don't want people to think I tried to pick similar names...it just happens to be this way...Jonah and Nina.

Should I worry about this? Or am I overanalyzing?

I have bulged disks, which may make it impossible for me to have the epi. this time around. I'm not for any other drugs because they effect the baby, but I don't think I'm strong enough to do it naturally. Has anyone used any of the other drugs for pain management during labor? What would you suggest, and what would you advise against??

my husband and I are both Rh positive but our daughter is Rh negative. Is it possible that she got that from recessive genes?

How do I handle this and tell him? He can't squeeze his hand or move his thumb or bring his wrist towards him. Can only bend his arm in about a 30 degree angle. I'm worried and scared for him

My son started Kindergarten this year and I'm stunned at the amount of homework he gets. I'm 39, and when I was in that grade, it was all about learning the structure of being in school, starting on the alphabet, maybe some numbers, and lots of coloring and playing. For the first quarter, the goals for my son were knowing all 52 upper and lower case letters, 60 or more "sight words" to memorize, counting forward from 1 to 20, backwards from 10 to 1, and recognizing all numbers up to 10. Also know the sounds of most of the letters of the alphabet, plus shapes, colors, writing his name, and on and on and on. On a regular basis, after 6 hours in school, I am expected to work with him on his "homework" for 2 hours. On top of that, I'm to read to him. He is the first of 3 children entering school, and I can't imagine what it's going to be like a few years from now. He comes home from school with pictures that he's colored and little things he pasted. What are they doing during class? Help!

My boyfriend's mom's friend, has been looking for a babysitter (she has recently fired her old babysitter because she would get home late and her daughters wouldn't be feed because the baby-sitter wouldn't cook).

I guess she works a lot and her husband is fighting in Iraq, and it would be a regular job (at least twice a week). The girls are 6 and 9. I was thinking about asking at least min. wage (here in Michigan $7 an hour, is that a fair price?

I babysit for at least 6 other families and have a lot of experience and references and I'm usually paid anywhere from $6-$10? Has anyone had experience where you are underpaid when babysitting, and how have you dealt with it? I really just want to be upfront about being paid with this job because I have been unpaid in the past (such as babysitting 6 kids for less then $4 an hour) but I also don't want to come off as being rude. By the way I'm a18 year old full-time college student.

Any Suggestions?

with bullies? It seems like that the teachers are just letting these things slide and the child that is being picked on suffers in silence because they are embarassed to say anything to their parents. Teachers usually know when a student is being bullied. Do you think that they should be held accountable for not reporting these things. Same thing with bus drivers. I think anyone that works in the school or for the school district in any job should know how to deal with this problem.

I ask this with great sadness and regret but my best friend’s 7 year old daughter died yesterday after a downhill struggle that began after a minor surgery in June. The surgery was supposed to relieve her of two of the minor medical issues she was having. It obviously did not do that.

Her mother is in a real loss of what to due for her funeral. Does anyone have any ideas of what to do to memorialize her? She wants to remember her little girl in a special way and can’t think straight. She doesn't want her baby to be forgotton. Also does anyone know of any songs about the death of a child to play at her funeral?

We are all in utter pain and shock and any help would be gladly appreciated.

Thank you.

My friend and I are debating which one to go with. She already has a daughter named Emily and is leery about having two children with the same initial as a first name, which I'm trying to convince her there's nothing wrong with that. Also we're trying to think of some good nicknames. Any suggestions?

What would you do if you had nine year old twins and one is being really naughty with telling lies, hitting out at her sister and other siblings and basically throwing massive temper tantrums? Don't know why she is doing it but my personal opinion is that its just a stage she is going through and as far as I know there's no other cause.
