(trying to get as much stuff together as possible because we move cross country about 3 weeks after our babies due date!)

Ok, I am not kidding here. I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter. I was raised in foster care so I was never really disciplined any way accept "groundings" which werent that big a deal. My pastor as well as my pediatrician have given me some suggestions on discipline with her and spanking her was one of them. Well I have tried the whole time out and taking toys away stuff and its not helping. I was never spanked and honestly dont really know how to do it safely. Any advice? ( please do not respond if your just gonna say DONT SPANK)

I just started the Seasonale pill where I dont get my period but only 4 times a year.. I began taking the pill and was on it for only 2 days when I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend but he withdrew before he ejaculated. If I were to get pregnant, how would I be able to tell if I was pregnant if I am not supposed to be getting a monthly period on the Seasonale pill anyway?

When i went for my 6 week check-up, after the birth of my first child i started birth control, the dr. said start on a sunday, so i did that was 3 1/2 weeks ago the day i started the pill i also started my period ( the dr. if this happens just keep taking the pill) well it hasn't stopped. Sunday i started the "sugar" pills so i guess i should have my period but i have had it no-stop for 3 1/2 weeks is this my body's way of "getting back to normal"? or is there something wrong?

My mother in law in a monster! She's two-faced, lying, rude, mean person. She'll be rude to anyone anywhere for no apparent reason, but mostly to me. It feels it's ruining my relationship with my husband b/c I CAN"T STAND her. Really I can't stand to even be aroud her. She tells me what to do with out new baby and has even gone to the level of all out yelling at my 4 yr old b/c she idn't want to wear pj's to bed. She was actually swearing at her. Thats when I lost it and anger took total control over me and I told her exactly what I think of her...needless to say it wasen't nice. My husband has talked to her but I don't think he feels like it's a real problem he tels me tats just how she is i can't change that. I don't want my kids around her if she is going to act this way...and she smokes a lot too and I don't like that around my kids at all. Am i crazy or do i have a point what can I do my husband think I'm being vindictive b/c I don;'t like her.

My girlfriend was always talking about wanting babies and she was on birth control. Well I found pills in the toliet that didn't always go down and now she is pregnant. Do you think she lied to me about taking the birth control or am I just paranoid? I know if I ask her she wouldn't tell me she stopped taking birth control and planned on getting pregnant?

Is this common with women and how do I handle this

My daughters are ages 9 & 12, and today is their 1st day of no school for 2 weeks.I work from home, and my husband works 10 hour days, so I'm at home with the girls this morning and they're already saying they're bored!
They like to watch movies, but I don't want them doing that for 2 weeks straight. I've been trying to think of some things we can do together that don't cost anything (or much) during the day, like baking cookies, starting new traditions for the holidays, etc. but can't think of much.
They already have their chores finished for the day, so I need some ideas on how to spend the next 2 weeks...ideas that will make their holiday break memorable.
Thanks to all in advance!!

Best friend wont give me space?
I was recenlt married in October and ever since I got married my best friend has been getting bent out of shape. Things have been busy for me and my husband we are in a new house we moved in a week before we got married and we are comfortable staying home spending our nights after work together doing nothing. My best friend will call me and want me to go shopping with her. I have worked all day and don't really feel like shopping. When I tell her know she will call me the next day and ask agian. I agian will say no I like to shop on the weekends when I have the energy and the money. She gets upset with me and says we never hang out and she knew this would happen when we got married. and gets all deppressred about it. We see each other once a week and I feel that is enough. I love her to death like I said she is my best-friend but sometimes lately for the last few months she has been driving me crazy and I dont want to hurt her. She right now is single and feels that she needs me.

Do you think i am wrong for this. I know alot of my problem is I have sesonal effective disorder so I am depressed in the winter and don't feel like doing much at all. The only peron I really enjoy to do alot of things with is my husband. We have been together for 6 years married only a few months. I really don't want to be a bad friend I just can't do it.

just one more thing I would like to add I don't really think she is lonely she has several men that she is dating. That is another part of the reason I think things are kinda off between us. She plays games with these guys one week she really likes the one and then the next day she doesn't meanwhile she is still seeing the guy she has been seeing for 2 years that treats her like crap. Its just non stop drama and I am the one that always has to listen to it. I am not complaining thats what friends do but sometimes I will admit it gets to me

I'm almost four months pregnant and I have headaches almost daily. I have had migraines all my life and before I got pregnant I was on an anticonvulsant to prevent my migraines. Now I don't take them since I'm pregnant and my migraines are not contant like they used to be. But I have terrible sinus headaches almost everyday and some nights I stay awake with the most awful headaches. I usually take 2 tylenol a day and once or twice week I take a couple tylenol before bed. Is this safe for my baby? I'm not sure how much use I would be if I couldn't at least take tylenol but I don't want to ruin my baby's liver before he/she is even born! Any moms out there with experience in this area?

I am a mother or two and just found out the my sister (19yrs old) is pregnant...7 months pregnant at that. She can not afford to take care of this baby on her own. SHe only makes $230 week. Daycare in our area in approx. $195 week. She currently lives with our dad and has not told him yet in fear that he will kick her out. Which, he probably will. My husband and I talked to her last night about what her plans are and she tells us she hasnt thought about it because it just stresses her out to much. She is also a high risk pregnancy and could deliver this baby at any given moment (incompatent cervix). The doctor told her bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy but she is still working because she cant afford to stay on bed rest. We also asked her if she plans on keeping the baby (a girl by the way). She said that she would like to but that she just can afford to. The only placw where she lucks out is that I have every single piece of baby equipment that she will need. HELP

My husband and I are pregnant with our fourth child. We like the idea of a double name, for example Marianne or Caralee. These are both poor examples and somewhat dull.
We like Junielee and Jon Henry but would love to hear more. The baby is due on July 4th so have we have even thought about Liberty Ann and calling her Libbyann.
Our youngest son (age 8) said to call the baby John Hancock (NO) and our oldest ( 13) said to call the baby Houston so he can say, "Houston, we have a problem."

You can see why I am asking for help.

Thanks all and Happy Holidays

I think it sounds fresh, clean, creative, artsy, open. Myself and Dad are creative people and wanted to name our child somthing that reflects that. . .

New evidence suggests that it is better not to let a new-born baby cry too long before attending to it. However, it seems clear to me that you don't want to pick up a baby that's just asking for attention. How can u tell (other than by dirty nappies)??

What do you think about babies with pierced ears? One of my friends got her daughters ears pierced at a few months old. I didn't say anything as I didn't want to get into an argument wih her but part of me was thinking how could you? I don't think babies are fashion accessories. I have a hard enough time watching my sons having their vaccinations, I couldn't put my baby through completely UNNECESSARY pain. I know for some people, it's a cultural thing but what about those who do it just for the sake of it? Babies will grow into toddlers who are so accident prone it's unbelievable. If there's something to pull, they'll pull it, something they're not allowed to do, they'll make it their job to do it anyway. Why do people do this to the children they're supposed to protect? Just seems ludicrous to me. My friend said her daughter never cried but she didn't know that beforehand, she took a risk. Before anyone asks, yes I have several piercings of my own so i'm not anti-piercings.
