Pregnancy & Parenting - 8 November 2007

Im living in M'sia. My mum in law told me that it is not good to give him nite bath because of the humidity of the weather here. Saying that he might catch cold and stuff like that.

But i think my baby loves nite bath, especially when i give him massage after bathing. He'll straight go to sleep then.

about 3 months ago my 12 year old started masturbating. I noticed that she runs straight to her room upstairs after school and closes the door. If I move quietly toward her room I can hear her. We already had "the talk" about the birds and the bees.

I'm concerned cause it takes very little to set her off. We were watching "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" one weekend. We were laughing at the scene were they were shooting up the house when they start kissing. My daughter then excused herself and went to her room. I followed her a moment later and heard her tiny little moans. I've noticed that anything with the small bit of sexuality (like kissing and touching) and after awhile she's heading for her room. I try to keep an eye on what she watches. Her favorite is Degrassi. I've blocked all films above PG13 and TV14. I'm very open minded woman and know its normal. But she just seems to have a very little self control and give in to her urges too easily and quickly.

I have read over and over all these people on here putting down formula feeding mothers .. why is it so important to YOU how they feed THEIR child?
I'm just curious?
I have read sooo many negative responses when a woman asks a question about formula .. why do you breastfeeding mothers bother to read the question if you are so anti formula?
Why don't you just skip that question and go to the next?
Does it give you some kind of power trip because you breastfeed your child? Do you need that pat on the back?
I just don't get it.
Why is it SO important to you that they don't formula feed their child??
(and for all the breastfeeding mothers who answer those questions with an honest, nice, helpful answer .. thanks!)

I breastfeed my child (and give her formula occasionally) but I would NEVER think to criticize someone for strictly giving their child formula .. how does their choice in feeding their child affect me? or my child?
Someone please shed some light on this ..

Not a question guys. I am so excited I just wanted to share my news. I had no idea that at 10 weeks a baby so tiny could do somersaults in my stomach! I was so amazed I kept laughing and it touched my heart. It was way better than what I thought it was going to be. Ok, I changed my mind about the question, did anyone feel such joy and amazement at how active your baby can be at such an early stage?

I just found out that my daughter has a yeast infection. She was taken to the dr. and she was given medication. I was just wondering if anybody out there had the same problem with their child and if they could give me any of their stories ie; how long it lasted if they thought it hurt their child? Anything would be appreciated.

was at school one day and my period came i had a pantyliner on just in case. I went and stood up to ask my teacher something (who happens to be really hot and so nice) and my firend ran up behind me and whispered that there was blood all over my butt. I freaked and started crying my teacher came over adn asked me what was wrong and i told him that my period leaked and that i had a huge stain on my butt and that i ddin't have any tampons or pads. He told me to talk to him in the hall so that know one else would hear (like guys and stuff) so that i would feel less embaressed a bunch of guys saw my pants adn started laughing and told everyone. my teacher told them to stop and leave me alone. He told me to calm down and that he would get me a pad from the staffroom and told me to change into my gym shorts.
After that all the guys would laugh at me and make fun of me one guy even came to school the next day and gave me a pad i got really hurt by that and scared.
Should i be embaresed?

I had a nervous breakdown tonight BIG time. My hub is overseas til the 4th of Dec. We have 6 cats. No biggie. My work has been giving me issues abt. going down to part time because I'm always tired (I've been tired before I got preggo. I think it might be, no, it's partially job burnout). One of my cats was sitting on my lap purring when she dug her claws in & I don't know why. I screamed so loud they all ran. Then one of them, Jack, came back as I was sobbing & trying to to hyperventilate. He doesn't like loud noises so he was going to try to nip at me, I know it. I flipped out on him & screamed so loud that my jaw & stomach hurt. Did it like 3 times. The claw digger I put in the basement & slammed door. I blew my nose and it was a bit bloody(kind of dry in our house). My stomach hurt for a bit after but I seem to be ok now I guess. I am 20 1/2 wks prg by the way. I do tend to get stressed out a lot. I work at a daycare (2yr olds).Did I hurt baby?I cried really hard. Any thoughts?

for the past 3 and 1/2 months, me and my fiance have been trying to conceive and we're having no luck.
we do it multiple times a day, and he always "finishes" inside of me.
how long does it take the average couple to conceive a baby?
we're both young and healthy and really want a baby.

One night I worked until about 3am, the next day she asked where I was, and I asked how she knew I was gone, she said she didn't see me when she woke up. I asked what do you mean when? She said she wakes up every night, but didn't elaborate. I never hear her, or hear her cry, and she wakes up for school fine, what do you suppose this is?

I was at Wall-Mart the other day and I seen a lady coming in with a little girl she had to be at least 3 or 4. She was walking around with a pacifier in her mouth. I think that once the kids are able to talk very well that they shouldn't need a pacifier. What is everyone else's opinions on this?

My daughter has her birthday party coming up but when asked from her class list who she wanted to invite she only left off 2 little girls. I found this odd & asked her why? She replied that she did not want those girls to come because they speak different to her, I explained they are polish but still she got really stubborn & said "NO!" I tried to explain the differences in a positive way with the help of my mom but she is steadfast. She has not learned this at home. Is it just being 4? Or is she picking up stuff from other kids at nursery? I do not want my child to be a bully or want her to be in an enviroment where this is happening to anybody. I have threatened to cancel the party unless she invites these 2 little girls but she just throws a tantrum? Is my daughter horrible?

I am to the point that I just don't care anymore. I'm not depressed or anything really, I am just tired. I am 15 weeks pregnant with my 5th baby, I can't keep up with the house work, I can't keep up with the laundry, I have noooooo energy, and all I want to do is sit and veg. with my other kiddos. My husband understands what I am saying but I know that it is getting to him. He works sooooo hard for us and I feel like I am not keeping up my end of the deal. He works 12-14 hours a day 5-6 days a week and is going out of town next week. I would really like to have some energy but can't seem to get any.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Ideas?

TIA

The past 2 months I have been late on starting, and feeling sick, but every time I take a test it's negative, but I am still feeling symptoms and a few days late. Is it possible that I am pregnant but my body is still menstrating because it's too early for the pregnancy hormones to kick in??
