Open Question: i bought him a ring, he bought me a DS?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 03:38:34 GMT)
Ok, so my boyfriend and i have been together for almost 8 months.. he is completely the love of my life, and i am 9 weeks pregnant with our first child. We plan to eventually get married, I am 22 and he is 25. He is the most amazing person i have ever met in my life, and treats me sooo well. So here is my question. For our first valentines day i made a huge card, doing somewhat of a madlibs theme, using his favorite candy (example You are my LIFESAVER) anywho, at the end of the poem, it said "i promise you forever" and i bought him a promise ring, the inside was engraved saying "i promise you forever" he absolutely loved it, he even cried. But he got me a nentendo DS... I hate to be ungrateful, because i LOVE my DS, i just kinda feel like maybe mine wasnt worth the time and effort i put into it. He loved it, and tells me he loves me everyday, i just feel like like a DS really isnt personal at all.. not even close to as personal as the ring i got him... Am i being selfish? i need advice.
Apparently everyone one here just wants to BAG on me because i asked as simple question, if you dont have something useful to add to this question, then dont bother giving your 2 cents..

Open Question: My 5 yr old is suffering from many ear infections, please read and give me some feed back and experience?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:05:32 GMT)
Please bare with me if this gets long, I really need some other parents insights.
Ever since my daughter was 3 years old she started getting severe ear infections. Since then they have become more frequent and more severe. Her father has had major ear problems all his life, with tubes and everything and it didn't help him, and he suffers serious hearing loss at the age of 30. He's totally against tube and anything else since they didn't work for him. I know 3 other ppl that the tubes have worked for, and worked miracles for. Her father and I are not together anymore but made a vow to raise her as a team and stay friends which we do very well. I am the primary parent. This past winter she has gotten 4 ear infections that also caused a high fever of 103, which is usually what happens. There have been other days that her ears have bothered her, and she didn't run a fever, so I put drops in them and they took care of the ear issues at that time, but they keep coming back. I've missed a lot of work between her ears and being 25 weeks pregnant and having issues of my own with the pregnancy. Today I almost lost my job b/c of my days missed and had to put up a fight to keep it. Thankfully I still have my job right now. Today I told her dad we have to do something about her ears or I'm going to lose my job from missing so many days of work. He finally said okay I guess we can see what else needs to be done, he's not happy with it, but at least he is on board with it. So a few questions: Did your child get tubes and what was the outcome? What else besides tubes may they do? What worked best for your child? And have you ever heard of Prevnar? My cousin just told me about this shot, earlier this evening. Her oldest who is now 10 had this series of shots(she had ear infections a lot too), only had to have two of them, and said it worked great and she hasn't had a problem since. I've done research on it, and still divided as there are many different opinions on Prevnar. If you tried Prevnar for your child, what was your outcome? Thanks so much for any help/advice/experience/direction you can provide. This is getting to the point that I have no other choice. And I've noticed just the last couple days my daughter isn't hearing very well at all, although she said her ear is "great" now, when it was bothering her the beginning of the week. Thanks again, so very much from the bottom of my heart.
I guess I left something out not meaning to, sorry. Her dad has went to an ENT specialist many times and continues to go and nothing is working for him, this is why he is so against and ENT specialist since it didn't and hasn't yet worked for him. But I keep trying to tell him everyone is different.

Open Question: Screaming and pregnancy...?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:49:59 GMT)
I'm 25 weeks pregnant, and yesterday I went for a regular checkup on my baby. They found out that she has fetal arrythmia. They sent me to the local hospital right away and did a bunch of tests from 11 a.m. to 6p.m. I, of course, was a upset and worried and thought I might have done something to cause this. Today, I was driving home and these girls cut me off at 65mph and almost hit me. I lost it. I screamed and yelled at them. I rolled down my window and basically said that I was pregnant and if they would've hit me...well I was just mean. I started shaking and my heart was racing. I broke down crying when I talked to my husband because I thought I hurt her worse. Do you think I hurt her? I'm normally calm and ok, but after yesterday I was exhausted and then with them almost hitting me and laughing about...it just got to me.
Thank yall so much! I feel a little better now. I really appreciate it :)

Resolved Question: morning sickness is making me depressed & I'm completely over it.?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 14:10:25 GMT)
I am 9 weeks pregnant with my second baby & I was trying to get pregnant for 13 months. I was so excited that I was pregnant because I was trying for so long. I have a two and a half year old daughter that at the moment I feel like I am not paying enough attention too.
I had severe morning sickness with her until 25 weeks, but for some reason I didn't mind, I think because I was trying for so long(2 years) I was just happy to be pregnant. I honestly didn't think I could feel this way about being pregnant... I just wish I wasn't & I know that if something happened I would be very sad. I just don't know how to handle the sickness anymore... It lasts all day, I am vomiting up to 15 times a day. Nothing I am eating is staying down. As I sit her writing this I have been sick twice (I have vomit bags because having to run to the toilet every half hour or so gets tiring. All I want to do is sit around and not do anything. I don't have any energy. I haven't been cleaning the house, my partner has & I feel so guilty about it.
I have been to the doctor because it has stopped me from my studies ( I withdrew because I couldn't be there I was constantly in the toilet) I feel like I am not being there enough for the daughter I already have and that makes me the most sad. I love my little girl to bits but I can't do anything. I try going out & I end up just going home because I get sick in the car.
I just can't handle it & I am only 9 weeks, I have only been sick for four weeks. I know other women go through it, how do you handle it?
I have tried everything I can including ginger etc. I even went to the doctor and got medication but that didn't stop me from being sick & that made me extra drowsy :(
What did you do to get through it? All I want to do is enjoy this pregnancy & I'm just not. It makes me feel so down.
Thank you
Thank you, I have heard of Zofran through reading other posts. I am glad to hear it doesn't make you drowsy because the other medication was awful and made me feel a little nutty to be honest :) I will speak to my doctor as soon as I can

Open Question: 32 weeks pregnant does It sound like I have low amniotic fluid to you?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:42:50 GMT)
So I'm 32 weeks pregnant & just now started thinking of the possibility of me having low amniotic fluid. I have not noticed any leaking at all. Just discharge but that's normal for me. So the reason I think It's possible is because my stomach isn't that big :( I mean It's not that small either I mean I've seen smaller but my stomach looks like 25-29 weeks (maybe) & for a while I would sometimes wake up with an almost completely flat belly. Now I wake up with a small belly that could be mistaken for like 20 weeks. & I know that I shouldn't compare myself to other people & I know we're all different but I'm just curious does It sound like low amniotic fluid to anybody? I just want opinions not people telling me to ask my doctor cause I will ask the next appt. Also the baby doesn't kick as much as It did back at like 20 weeks & so on :( Please help! & how bad would It be If I did have low amniotic fluid..

Open Question: How do I tell my parents that I'm pregnant?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 05:03:22 GMT)
I am 16, almost 17, and I found out today that I am about 8 weeks pregnant. The father is a very good friend of mine...we had a "sporadic romantic encounter" when I was at his house. I've told him and he says he will support me no matter what. I do not want to get an abortion. My parents know I really want a family, and I've told them that I don't want to start one until I'm at least 25, but they'll think that I did it deliberately. How can I let them know that this was not planned?

Open Question: POAS brands & their Lowest hCG detected...FYI?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 04:09:22 GMT)
http://www.babyhopes.com/pregnancy-test-sensitivity-comparison.html
in pouring through google, and various replies on here...
I checked into various pregnancy test brands & appox their mIU they detect..
for anyone who'd like to know, I posted the link.
I'll be 11dpo tomorrow... I'm going to force myself not to test til ATLEAST Friday morning.
Dr gave me a urine test today (10dpo) and it wasn't concentrated urine at all.. and the nurse agreed with me it could still be way too early to tell. Period due 16th/17th... we're not exactly "trying".. but... I bawled my eyes out when yet ANOTHER lady tonight at church announced she was pregnant. They're stinking EVERYWHERE! I have friends (virgins til married!) married 02/13/10 & got pregnant quite possibly that night. She's due in NOvember.
here is what their site says...
"Pregnancy Tests and hCG Values
The pregnancy tests on the market today range widely in their sensitivity in picking up the pregnancy hormone, hCG. In the chart below, the lower the number in the "hCG Detected" column, the earlier you can use the pregnancy tests. As a general rule, hCG levels, if you are pregnant, are between 5 - 50 mIU a week before your period is due. The hCG levels in your system should double every two to three days.
Please remember that every woman is different and the time it takes for the fertilized egg to implant in your uterus wall can vary. A common misconception is that implantion occurs 7 days after conception, but the research findings showed that first appearance of HCG (implantation) occurred 6-12 days after ovulation, with 84% of the pregnancies implanting on days 8-10 after ovulation. If you don't get a positive pregnancy test, it doesn't necessarily mean that you are not pregnant. It could be that you ovulated later than you thought (meaning that conception and subsequent hCG production didn't happen as when you expected) or that, for you, implantation took longer than the average. Your period arriving is a sign that you are not pregnant this cycle, as is a negative blood test from your doctor.
Is a super sensitive pregnancy test the best to use?
For most women, the resounding answer would be YES! It allows you to know earlier if your attempts to conceive were sucessful and get medical care as soon as possible. There *is* a down side to extra sensitive pregnancy tests though. 25% of all pregnancies unfortunately end in miscarriage and many of these being very early pregnancies. If you use a very sensitive pregnancy test, where you test before the day your period is due, you could catch an early pregnancy but end up going on to have your period anyway due to a very early miscarriage. Some women will find it very hard to deal with this sort of emotional rollercoaster."

Open Question: I need help. Please read!?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 21:03:00 GMT)
OK, so here is the story. I started my period on Feb. 3rd. It was a normal period like always. On Feb 24th, I started spotting, I just thought that it was my period. It stopped on the 25th. It is now the 10th of March, and Aunt Flow is still not here. I took one pregnancy test and there was a very faint line, indicating pregnancy. I took another test a few days to a week later, and it showed up negative. Here are my symptoms.. I have noticed that my breast are growing, and getting very sensitive. I am having cramps, like I am about to start my period, but nothing. I'm having lower back aches, and I cannot seem to get enough sleep. No matter how early I go to bed. I have the hardest time trying to wake up in the morning. Or even staying focused and alert at work. My question is, is it possible that I am pregnant. My boyfriend and I have been trying for a couple of months now. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Open Question: Abortions (25 characters!!)?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 15:46:58 GMT)
I have seen and read plenty of questions on here discussing abortions and the rights and wrongs of them.
I know everyone is entitled to an opinion, but i believe that there are millions of different circumstances out there that women get into that sometimes abortion is their only option i.e. getting raped or they are too young to raise a child.
I myself am 20, and 23 weeks pregnant with my first child.
I personally would never have an abortion because I feel if i create a life i should live upto my responsibilities and raise the child.
The only problem i have with abortions is if they are used as a form of contraception or when trolls post horrific unecessary questions on them such as " im on my 5th abortion.."
So my question is ladies, what is your opinion on this subject?

Open Question: Is this a good way to tell hubby I'm ready to start trying for a baby?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 07:13:07 GMT)
He's 29 and wants to start trying for a baby yesterday. I on the other hand am 25, a lawyer, and feel like I need to be more secure at work before I get pregnant. Lawyers don't like pregnant woman and they hate mat leave people. LOL, anyways...
I think October would be perfect to start trying, although a few weeks ago I told hubby I don't want to start trying until at minimum 2 years from now.
So my idea is to book a romantic weeks vacation when he is off of school (he's a high school teacher) and tell him it's a baby making trip. Good idea?
Here is the resort:
http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g150812-d1218761-Reviews-Banyan_Tree_Mayakoba-Playa_del_Carmen_Yucatan_Peninsula.html
My hubby truly is a wonderful wonderful wonderful man. He always wants to go away and I always am too busy with work, so I think this surprise trip would be wonderful. What do you think?
I wouldn't tell him about it until a week before we left - he is always planning and creating special little things for me, I just never know what's up his sleeve, so I want to do the same for him this time.

Open Question: Now what? I am screwed!?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:39:28 GMT)
I got arrested and charged with felonies 16 years ago. Drug related. I spent time in jail, treatment center & 5 years probation because of my charges. During the start of all that I finally met the right woman and she got pregnant with my son, who I will just call B here. When he was born & the doctor handed him to me I then understood what true love was! I immediately became a much more mature adult who stopped partying and stayed away from drugs and trouble since then. He probably saved my life by just being born. His mother started getting in trouble though and eventually left us to start partying with new friends. Damn, wrong woman! I filed for full custody and got it. We have not seen or heard from her since then (14 years now). When he was a year old I really did meet my soulmate & we got married. She is his real mother..not some girl who had a kid and split. Anyways, he calls her mom & we are still married today, 13 years now. About a year ago, my son, "B" started high school and puberty/adolescence at the same time. He has always been a good kid who loves video games and drawing. Over the past year he changed completely and started hanging out with the wrong crowd at school. I started getting calls from the school all the time and would have to leave work to pick him up or have a meeting. Employers would put up with time off for so long and I got fired. With my felony backgroung it is impossible to find another job & with the economy. But somehow I would, just to lose it because of the same thing. 4 jobs in 6 months and have been unemployed for the past 6 months (1 year total) since his behavior. I disciplined him from small to large during this time. Also had him at counselors, psychiatrists, therapists, youth pastor in church and all other assistance. He has been baker acted to behavior clinics 4 times this year and has been failing 5 of 7 classes. He refuses to do homework and schoolwork. He will even tell me no. I am 6'6" tall 230lbs. & a veteran of the marine corps infantry division/combat decorated(alot of reason for drugs when I got out) I can't believe he tells me no. When he gets punished he runs away and won't listen. Well, last week at school he got upset and set fire to a toilet paper holder in school bathroom & was caught. Nobody got hurt thank goodness andthe was little damage 25$. The police went to the school and charged him with Arson 1st degree. Which is a felony of the first degree. He has been expelled from school for 2 years and is currently in juvenile detention. Court is this Thursday. I am devestated! Have not slept in days! Unemployed! Marriage is in trouble from his behavior! I have no friends..everyone either smokes weed or drinks here in the redneck county we live in. Don't want any of that around me or family. My son is screwed, he may have this follow him when he looks for work as an adult. I know from experience that he will only be able to get sorry jobs that only start you around 8-10 $an hour. I am so stressed and don't know what will happen next in my life! Damn! Damn! All I have been doing since he was born is searching for happiness and makng better decisions. What the hell for? What will happen in my life next? I have many more things that have happened with bad things but was during my military service. I will not mention them now. I gotta go, bad luck is waiting for me...DAMN IT!

Open Question: What to do when a relationship goes sour?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:22:14 GMT)
I'm sorry this is so long but I really need some advice and I'm not sure who to turn to:
My boyfriend and I have been together about 2.5 years. About 5 months into the relationship I got pregnant, and we now have a daughter who is 17 months old. The problem is that we argue ALL the TIME and I hate that my daughter hears it.
I cannot financially make it on my own unless I move into bad areas of town (I am a waitress- was in college when I got preggo and haven't had the chance to finish) and I don't want my daughter growing up not feeling safe.
I have an aunt who has offered to let me move in with her but my daughter and I would share a tiny room and I have applied for numerous jobs and can't find one!! She also has a 10 year old son.
So back to my boyfriend... about 2 months into the relationship I caught him going through my phone. I wasn't mad because I really don't have anything to hide. A few days later, he was in the shower, so I figured, what the heck, and looked through HIS phone. I found some messages to an old girlfriend asking "been getting any lately?" and I can't remember the others but they weren't appropriate for someone who is not single. I asked him about it and he apologized... and I forgave him.
Right around the time I got pregnant I found that he had been on some dating sites on my computer. He denied it at first until I showed him the history. He then began deleting the history EVERY time he got onto my computer.
He also began hiding his phone... leaving it in his car, taking it with him to the bathroom, etc.
One day while on the beach (he was surfing) I checked his phone again. There was a message to some girl asking if she wanted to go for a walk. I guess this could be platonic, but what would you think after all of this crap???
I thought we had FINALLY gotten past all of this when my daughter was born, but when she was about 3 months old I found that he had created a new profile on plentyoffish.com that showed him being "single" but admitted to having a child.
Well I just came home from work tonight to find that he has deleted the history for the 2nd time in a week. I created an account on plentyoffish (not using my name or information) and sent him a message. I want to see if he replies.
On top of it all, we only have sex like once every other week. He tells me I'm sexy and blah blah blah... I DO think I'm an attractive girl so I don't think that's it. But it makes me upset that he doesn't think it's a big deal when I bring it up.
Speaking of which, every time I bring up ANY problem in our relationship, he says he's tired, hs doesn't want to talk about it, it's not important, our daughter is more important and we should focus on that. I know that she comes first but she wouldn't be here if it weren't for us, and I think that she deserves to have parents who can resolve issues like adults. He just doesn't seem to care about ME.
Everything turns into yelling at each other lately. We're both cranky from working all the time and taking care of the little one I guess, but there's definitely some deeper issues that need to be fixed.
Am I being crazy to distrust him? Should I stay or go? He is a GREAT father but just I just don't know what to do about our relationship. I'm also worried about about finishing school and finding a job so it's all making me so stressed.
I think the logical thing to do is move in with my aunt and finish school, but I want my own place. I'm almost 25 years old and I want my daughter to be happy.

Resolved Question: Could I be pregnant? Please Read!?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:55:45 GMT)
Ok so me and my hubby aren't actively TTC but if it happens, it happens. My periods are pretty normal...about a 25 day cycle. My last one was Feb. 16 so I should start by the end of the week. I can't pinpoint the exact days we had sex in the last month. Its been about 2 weeks ago or so because first he was sick and now I'm feeling sick (like a cold). A few days ago, I had some brown discharge when I wiped. That last about 2 days. Could this have been implantation? Is that common? Also my boobs are sooo sore, but only to the touch. Does this sound like symptoms of starting my period or could I possible be pregnant.
P.S. I'm gonna wait until I'm a day late to test but just wanted some opinions...Thanks!
Also I'm just curious, How common is it to get your period while you're pregnant?

Open Question: 37 weeks and going crazy?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:48:03 GMT)
I'm 37 weeks with my first baby, 25 years old and married for about 2 years now. It's been a tough pregnancy-severe morning sickness in the beginning, issues with pre-hypertension, and problems with very rude doctors (finally found a good one). I have a whole new respect for pregnant women; this is harder than I ever imagined. I have been so emotional in the past few weeks. I probably cry every other day at the least, and over very stupid things. Some moments I'm excited for the baby to come, and other moments I am terrified and feeling in over my head. It's been rough because my mom is still in denial about becoming a grandmother, and this is something I would normally confide in her about, yet I just feel awkward anymore.
Has anyone else gone through this? I just need some advice on how to get through all of these crazy emotions...

Open Question: Okay so there is this girl that has serious issues?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:38:19 GMT)
Okay, so here is my story...well i buy macbooks on craiglist to resell on eBay as its good side income while in college..and i met this girl who was selling her macbook, she was at a hotel, she's from florida, wellll we both had to delete stuff off of our laptops as i was partly trading a small laptop for her macbook...and..we actually spent 2 hrs together, she's not ugly but only 19, i'm 25, welllll we hung out 'n then she was saying how she was 2 months pregnant and hungry so i offered to take her to lunch, she said sure! so i took her out to lunch...(keep in mind that i come from a nice family, w/no issues really) and she's a nice gal 2 but, i dunno if i wanna date her... actually no way i would want to date her...she's just a B!tch...gets me to do everything for her, i know i'm a nice guy but i'm afraid of being used, wellllll being single and looking i asked her if she wanted to go out to eat 2 nights later, she agreed so i picked her up 'n she came over to my place 'n hung out 'n we spent the night together actually...not s3x at all though, jst cuddling....it was really nice but i dunno if i wanna be serious w/this girl, she calls txts me nonstop and how do i end it :( i mean i love the cuddling... ALSO one big issue is that she's broke $ wise as she's only 19 relocating from florida, and actually i felt guilty cuz i spent the night w/her and she said she had no place to go so i paid for her a week stay at this hotel which was 260$ and i made her promise me that she will find a job and get settled here in houston, she promised me but nothing has happened, she sleeps until 2pm every day and is txting me saying she's sick etc....I don't know what to do! i think i messed up in the 1st place, i'm a college junior and about to graduate and we are totally different people mind-wise...welllllll what should i do? btw her lease is ending tomorrow and she does have some $ left over to buy next weeks rent but i don't want to support her, i feel like i'm being used

Open Question: Abortion or keep the baby?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 16:50:51 GMT)
I'm 19 and pregnant.
My boyfriend is 25 and REALLY wants me to keep the baby but I'm not letting him pressure me into anything. The thing is...if I keep the baby my parents will kick me out & will never want anything to do with me ever again. I won't be able to work & go to college because I'm not rich. & its a really small town here where everyone is always talking bad about each other.
Im only like 3 weeks along and was thinking of getting the abortion pill.
But then when I think about it, I'm actually really lucky because I have a boyfriend who would always be there for me and help me out but i don't know what to do!!
I'm not asking you to yell at me about abortion I just want opinions on what I should do.
Thanks! =)

Open Question: How often should I have sex with my 32-year old wife to get her pregnant?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:20:48 GMT)
I'm 25 and she's 32, so there's a little bit of an age difference (should it matter?!). She came off the pill in July just before we got married and we've been trying for a baby ever since. We have sex three times a week in the morning--usually in the missionary position. Are we doing that right? Any other tips would be much appreciated.

Resolved Question: 25 weeks pregnant and couldn't digest my food tonight?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 05:05:57 GMT)
Tonight about 30 minutes after I ate dinner I felt REALLY really full. I didn't stuff myself either. After a couple hours I still hadn't digested the food and was starting to feel really sick. It felt like my food was sitting at the top of my stomach and I was going to throw it up any second. I wasn't nauseous or anything, just extremely full and it would not go down. Is that normal? I'm 25 weeks pregnant and I've never had that happen before...it kind of scared me. I ended up forcing myself to throw up because it just wouldn't go down on it's own. I didn't eat more than I normally do? Is this something I should tell my doctor about or could it be some kind of weird blockage or is it one more lovely pregnancy symptom I get to endure?

Open Question: How to deal with stillbirth (25 weeks)?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 04:41:40 GMT)
I am 20 years old. I was recently pregnant with my first child. He was planned and everything was done right. I went for a regular check up at 25 weeks on March 1st but the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat. My little guy died! My doctor has no explanation of what might have happened. I have high blood pressure so I'm thinking maybe that had something to do with his death. After I made it to the 2nd trimester I thought everything would be fine! Stillbirth never crossed my mind! But anyway I am an emotional wreck! I don't know how to deal with this! I can't focus on anything! All I wonder is if I did anything to harm him...I want to try again but I'm so afraid this will happen again..I'm in desperate need of some emotional support!

Open Question: Having a miscarriage?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 04:11:00 GMT)
I was 11 weeks pregnant. 2 weeks ago I had an ultrasound. They saw the fetal poll but couldn't find the heart beat. The measurements were also off by 4 weeks. Wednesday I had another ultrasound and they couldn't find the baby. I had HCG levels done Friday and Sunday and they were going down. A normal range for how far I am should be around 25,000 and 288,000; mine were 4,010 and 2,124. Today I found out that I need to get a D&C from all the heavy bleeding and cramping. They gave me percocet for pain but it really isn't helping. I am getting the surgery Friday.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do or take to make the pain a little better?
Also does anyone know what the D&C consists of?
This is also my 3rd miscarriage in 4 years. I have had 1 live birth. The other 2 I miscarried with no problems and they were at 8wks and 12wks. This one is the worst. I'm not sure if its because I just had my daughter in October and my body just never healed enough.. I don't know..

Resolved Question: Babysitting a puppy..?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 03:25:22 GMT)
My friends have asked me to watch their puppy 4 days a week for 7 to 8 hrs a day while they are at work..They said that all they can afford right now is $100 a month and I said OK I will do it for them..Well Im on day 2 and she has NO potty training at all (I am 6 months pregnant and have 2 of my own dogs and the carpets are perfectly clean)...Well today I have been thinking that this puppy is way too much work for $6.25 a day..I know that they can pay me a little more because they go on dates a lot and I feel that they can sacrifice a date out of their month to pay me a little more for all this work that I am going to be putting into their puppy..I have already agreed to do it for 100 a month before I realized how much work the puppy was going to be (shes a big hyper girl half lab and half pit and its hard for me to work with her being 6 months pregnant)...I want to still help them with their dog but I am going to need a little more money, but I have already agreed to do it and I dont really know how to tell them that I cant do it for soo cheap, its just too much work...What should I do? What would you do?

Open Question: Who has used Replens or RePhresh for women?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 01:01:10 GMT)
I'm 25 weeks pregnant and just battled a yeast infection and BV for a month. On my last visit, the tests were negative, but I'm still very sore and burning really bad, so the doctor thinks that I'm very irritated from all of the gels and creams I had to use. So, she suggested Replens or Rephresh. I'm nervous about using them because I'm so irritated, but I've been off of the meds for a week now and I'm still in pain. Any opinions on these 2 products?

Resolved Question: HELP ME! I NEED UR OPINIONS!; AM I PREGNANT?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:56:37 GMT)
Unprotected sex jan 29th; he came in me.
Period was supposed to come feb 25th, I got it thee 29th. Obviously for days late. Which is weird for me.
That whole week I was supposed tp get my period I was feeling nauseas, dizzy & light headed.
I was also get massive horrible cramps & back ache. It felt like I had my period. But it was like a brown color.
When I finally got it afer the initial blood that let ne know I had it; it was light red pinkish brownish.
Then heavy the next day..unusually heavy.
It only lasted two days & I usually last 5.
After that for three days I would bleed only when I pee.
Haha; & apparently accprding to my bf my boobs are getting big.
Idk.. and I'm still feeling dizzy lightheaded and nauseas.
Help!
Help!
I need ur opinions
Lol yea I know about a pregnancy kit; but I'm literally broke and can't afford ten extra bucks for a test.
Does planned parenthood do blood test & do they require an I.d? Cuz I'm 19 with no I.d haha
Plus I have no insurance.
Yea they did seem like pms but it was different then before.

Open Question: Has anyone ever used Replens or RePhresh for women?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:36:49 GMT)
I am 25 weeks pregnant and just battled a yeast infection and bacterial vaginosis for about a month. I had to use gels and creams for 13 days straight to get rid of everything. According to my last swab, I am infection free, but I am still very irritated and burning really bad. The doctor said that I'm just sore from all of the medicine and she suggested using either rephresh or replens. It's now 6 days later and I'm still very sore and irritated, I haven't tried any of the stuff yet because I'm nervous about getting more irritated. Has this ever happened to anyone? Or just some opinions on these 2 products would be greatly appreciated.

Open Question: Induced around 38-39 weeks?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:33:37 GMT)
I am due April 7th. My husband is deployed in Afghanistan right now,and they are trying to get him here for the birth. I just found out that he will actually be home around the 25th which would make me 38 weeks. Then right around my due date they are sending him back. So there's a really good chance he won't be here for the birth unless she decides she wants to come out soon. I really want him to be here for the birth,and to meet our little girl before he goes back. He won't be home for good until February of next year. I was wondering if i should talk to my doctor about inducing me sometime while he is home which makes me around 38-39 weeks pregnant. Has anyones doctor induced them before their due date without medical reasons, and if so was the baby healthy? Thanks for any answers :)

Open Question: Positive, negative, period 20 days late.?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:28:34 GMT)
So,
To break it down:
*Had a 1 day bleeding after my period was late for 5 days, and 2 days of light spotting (It usually lasts about 4 or 5 days and then till day 7 very light spotting)
*my period is late for 20 days today
*My period has never been later than at the most 2 days in my LIFE (im 25 now, been off birthcontrol pill since about 2 years)
*My nipples were very sore a week or so before my period was supposed to start (I NEVER have sore nipples)
*Im constipated & bloated
*Craving sweets (I usually don't eat candy etc)
*A weird feeling on the right,lower side of my belly, cant call it cramping or pain, just a weird feeling.
*My lower back hurts a little when I do too much
*Nausea when I brush my teeth in the morning
*High cervix and white discharge, sometimes egg white (tmi)
*Did a pregnancy test (Dollar general +- ) on march 5th (day 17 being late) and it showed an immediate faint thin line (after about 1 min), threw it away, kind of forgot about it because I figured it was an evap line, then I read that evap lines show up after like 5 or 10mins..Mine showed up after 1 min and is light blue ish.
So picked it out of the trash, showed it to my husband, he saw it clearly too..so I took a pic of it:
http://d.imagehost.org/view/0749/P3280064crop1
*Took another test this morning, a First Response Early Result test, and it was clearly negative, no line what so ever.
My husband doesn't think I'm pregnant because we aren't trying, we did have sex around the time I ovulated ..but with a condom though..Im not on any other Birthcontrol.
He did see the line but figured it was false after the negative test result this morning but first morning urine.
I'll go to the doctor if my next period doesnt start, which is supposed to start next week on tuesday.
I know some woman just dont get positives sometimes untill later on, or not at all.
Just wanted to read everyones views, what do you think is going on with me?
