I'm 13, and I was going to recess, and placed it on the ground. There is this rude girl, Amy. And she picked up my lunch box (without me knowing at all), and starting hitting on of my friends as a joke. (I barely even know this girl. Well, I kinda know her, I really don't like her at all) And she just put it where it was. One stitch came out and now my whole 50 dollar lunch box is ruined! I am grounded for it too, and that was my favorite lunch box! She didn't tell me about it either, one my friends did. What should I do!? should I make her pay for it? Should I tell my mom or just hid it. Would it be bad for my mom to call her mom?

I want to start potty training my son... He's 15 months old and his diapers are starting to stay dry for longer periods of time after drinking juice and eating... his bowl movements aren't exactly regular yet, although i do not about how long to wait after he eats a solid meal before I should expect the dirty diaper... I've heard it's harder to potty train boys than it is girls, but seeing as he's my first I don't think that'll be a huge problem for me because it's not like I've already had a girl and potty trained her anything... My question is, what are some things that worked for you guys when starting to potty train.. I know I have to put him on there continously and try to make sure he goes before letting him back up and making a big deal when he does go in it and that it's good to put him on it when I'm upstairs in the bathroom, but is there anything personal that you did that made it any easier on you? He already has a potty it transitions from a potty chair with a back to being

I had a check-up today and was measuring rather small. I am 37 weeks and was measuring 31 weeks. I had an ultrasound done down in radiology and am still waiting to hear from the doctor. The technician said the baby was 5 lbs. My son was born at 37.5 weeks and weighed almost 8 lbs.

I know I need to hear from the doctor in regards to my pregnancy, but has anyone measured this small at 37 weeks and what is your story? I wish I knew more of what was going on and am desperately waiting for the phone call from my doctor!

I'm watching this little girl who is almost 2 and her mom told me she has a rash. Well I checked it out which is all over her, but she doesn't itch it. So i'm not completely sure if it is chicken pox. They look a little scaby to me. But anyways, I'm almost 15 weeks pregnant and I am worried now something can happen to my unborn child. When I was younger I had the chicken pox so I know I can't catch them. Is there any harm to my baby? Oh, and I have tried calling my doctor but there voicemail says they have stepped away for a while.

My little one started having jarred baby food and spends ALL DAY awake now?? Is it a coincidence? Since the day after she started, she takes two 30-45 minute naps instead of two 2 hour naps. She is extremely happy during all of the awake time, and sleeps through the night. I actually love it. Could it be from starting the baby food or just because she is getting older? Just seemed funny to me that it started the day after the baby food :)

We've decided on a first and middle name for a girl, and a first name for a boy... but can't seem to find a middle name to go with the name Hunter... and ideas? I've considered it as a middle name, but I would prefer it was a first name though.

I will be 40 weeks on Saturday and I have not felt one braxton hick contraction at all! None throughout my pregnancy. Has anyone else been like this? Also, I had a doctors apt yesterday and she didn't check me to see if I was dialated any. She said there was no use since I wasn't having contractions. Is that normal?

Drew, Emma, and Jayla for a girl?

Please list them in order from your favorite to your least favorite. My sis is pregnent an is going to have her baby any day now and we still can't decide on a name. She's either going to name her after what I named my lil sister-- Jayla (*****, stealing my original ideas :p), Emma (Spice Girls obsession... and then her nickname can be Baby ... -_-') and Drew was just yet another one of my ideas that she stole :p

Feel free to give your own ideas as well, but don't forget to put these names in your favorite order first :]

Preggy with baby # 2... Sitting here with my baby name list... And I just realized something... Elizabeth and Rose are both on my list. (Elizabeth was my grandmas name - Rose is my Mothers name) They sound too cute together (I think). My question to you is which combo do you like and why? My sons name is Brody William... I thought I balanced out an awesome unique name with a strong classic name. I wanted the same combo with my daughter (if I am having a lil girl - not sure yet) My husband and I both Love the name Jensen... I love the name Rory... But now sitting her seeing Elizabeth Rose together it looks sort of perfect (but maybe a bit over-used). What do you think?

How long did it take you to get used to breastfeeding, and at first was it hard to make sure the baby was getting enough and did your nipples get chapped and did it hurt to even put the laniosh medicine on it, or whatever that is called?

My little brother has a lot of classic children's books, but I've been told you can get really lovely modern books now, and I'd like to get him a few for Christmas...he loves stories and I really want to encourage him to love reading when he's a bit older!

Does anyone have any recommendations or favourites?

Thankyou :)

Are there any foods that you do not let your children eat?

Is there any food that you force your children to eat even though they don't like the food?

We have been TTC for about 9 mo., and I recently started charting BBT and CM. We also just got a cat, which I'm slightly allergic to, so I've been taking diphenhidramine (benedryl), and at first my CM seemed normal (becoming increasingly abundant, etc, as my cycle progressed), but today (day 14 of a 31-32 day cycle) it seems like the CM is really dry and sticky. Could the benedryl be causing this? Note: it is an antihistamine only, not a decongestant.
