My 1 week old is only awake about 1-2 hours out of the day. She was also 2 weeks early but very healthy. There are different types of babies. Quite babies sleep a lot and hardly ever fuss, sometimes you have to wake them to eat. Average babies are...

My friends convinced me to go to the emergency room where they told me I was pregnant and it was heartburn I was experiencing. Up till this point I had never felt heartburn and it scared...

Ate them all! I did the ice cream too! Lots of fruit, huge bowls of it in one setting. Cereal at 5 am every morning for 3 months. A gallon of milk a day. Raw hot dogs, and I won&#039;t eat hot dogs at all not pregnant. And...

If you have increased pain then its not normal. What your are experiencing now is equal to what you would feel if you had a baby. The procedure is a fairly violent one that is going to cause swelling and tenderness. But I&#039;m sure that when you were discharged they gave you a paper...

Any advice or suggestions?<br /><br />Please enjoy your childhood while you still have it. A baby will not give you the love that you are looking for. Babies take. They take and take for a long time before they start to give. It takes a grown, mature person to not only handle how much they require but to find reward in giving all...

Then we went to plan parent hood and she took another one from there and it came back negative. Were not sure what to do? Can someone give us some tips?<br /><br />False positives are a lot rarer than false negatives. If you get one of each, believe the positive one. Go get a blood test done. It will have to be at a Doctors office. Planned Parenthood and the Health Dept do not do these. It took me 6 weeks to get a positive urine test with my last 2...

But the chances are greater depending on how it was done. My mother had the good ole fashioned cut, tie, burn procedure and she has NEVER had a scare. But a couple of friends of mine are just banded and one of them got pregnant but quickly lost the baby. Even if you do get...

Its so much easier and safer than Tubal Ligation, and a lot less painful too. Just be sure to get your sperm tested as directed by your doctor. You still have swimmers until they have all been passed, usually about 6 weeks.

Girls can be a bit lighter. I guess between 6.5 to 7.5 for girls and 7 to 8 for boys. They will be bigger depending on factors of the pregnancy like Gestational Diabetes and the weight gain of the mother. But in a normal pregnancy with weight gain under 20lbs the above...

I'm not pregnant, just wondering.<br /><br />If you have ever had really bad constipation, or what my husband calls &quot;gut rot&quot;, its basically really bad gas that comes and goes every couple minutes until you are finally able to go to the bathroom. Its like that, but 100 times worse and all over your entire stomach and lower back.

Add any kind of drugs to that and your complete memory of the event is gonna be missing a few pieces. Plus your body releases endorphines directly...

It is loaded with growth hormones that is causing her to develop quicker and is probably what is making them so sore. She can experience the soreness anyway, just like boys get cramps in their legs, but...

At 13 they are usually full blown teenager! (look out!)

Could i be pregnant?<br /><br />You could be. Your probably not, but I would go to the Gyno to get a blood test anyway to be sure and then maybe they can tell you why you are consistently late. There could be a serious reason for late, irregular periods, or depending on your age, could be menopause, which you can go into...

I try to be nice, but she's always harassing me / our children, calling them worthless bastards. How do I deal with her and get her off my back?<br /><br />Start by getting a notebook and make a log of everything you can for a couple of months. Recording are nice, emails, get things in writing. Then hire a lawyer. I would have your husband talk to his son and tell him that he does indeed have to listen to you, that you are his step-mother and he is...

I have 2 different pics one looks like a boy the other a girl. The tech said boy at first then when she saw the 2nd image said she couldn't tell. can anyone help. Thanks<br /><br />Wow! You got me! I looked at those pics and I can&#039;t see how she could tell anything from either one. I think she may be a poor technician. I am pregnant with my 4th child right now, I&#039;ve had 3 boys and now a girl. First of all she could have gotten better pics at only 22 weeks. I have...

How do we tell her that mu husband isnt her dad (he's been daddy for 6 years). My ex wants back in her life, saing it was a mistake to let her go. He lives 30 hours away.<br /><br />I agree with everyone else here. Don&#039;t allow it. Make him get a court order. (He probably won&#039;t) I have a similar issue with my oldest son and we have decided to tell him when he is grown, but not any sooner.

Have him do research and possibly even essays on all the different kinds of drugs, what they do and their dangers. This is what stopped me from doing too much experimenting. I agree with limiting his funds. Weed is not as much of a concern as the friends that come with the...

I said that when a child swears, even if it is just in the company of his friends, it is disrespectful to the...

Would you call the police? What if the child was screaming and struggling?<br /><br />If a child was getting popped on the butt and you called the police, I would hope the person that called would be charged money for mis-using taxpayers dollars, kind of like the volunteer fire-station does, because spanking your child is not against the law! Now as far as the screaming and... Wed, 28 May 2008 06:42:31 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/3087957 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/3079546 I got grounded because I have B's and two C's. Is this fair?<br /><br />I know there is more to this. You probably got grounded for the C&#039;s, right? Not the B&#039;s. How long have you been working on getting this grade up? And what is the reason for the C&#039;s? Typically if you are struggling, it is with one class, but a major drop in grades indicates at the...

I spank, and my 11 and 9 year old would never consider me to be mean, or fear me in anyway. I use other methods of punishment as well, such as time out and grounding, but there are times for a sound...

Sometimes they are just stupid about it. I just kinda think that if you don&#039;t know the answer to a particular question, its not a question for you, move on to the next one,...

He may have a blockage, he may have Parvo...like they said liver issues, but this sounds pretty aggressive. Is he pooping normal, does he have all his shots?

I'm worried my dogs will hurt them, but if I relocate them will their mother find them? What should I do?<br /><br />Leave them be. Let nature take its course. Its not really a good idea to raise them and set them loose as they will not live very long in the wild without the knowledge they learn from their mom. She will come back. I would keep your dogs penned up for a bit though. I hate to say this but if...
