I had my tubes tied in Sept 2010 and had my periods every week to 2 weeks (pretty much constantly) since then. Well suddenly I havent had a period in over 3 weeks. Im worried about possibly being pregnant. Has anyone heard of/or experienced this?? I have been super tired and laggy, sore breasts moodiness, etc...i have been sick for a little bit so i dont know if it could be that too, but I dreamed last night that i was pregnant. I need advice or to see if any of you have experienced this! Help!!!

I am 37 weeks pregnant and the baby has dropped low and I am feeling alot of pressure and pain in my vaginal area. Its like everytime he moves or hiccups I can feel it in my vagina. Ive also had alot of clear/white discharge. I have had some cramping(no bleeding though) in my lower abdomen, and also some small inconsistant braxton hicks contractions. I am curious if any of you experienced this and if so when did you actually go in labor from that point? My ob/gyn wont vaginally check me till 38 weeks so i have no way of knowing what my dialation or efacement is!! HELP!!!!

Have any of you experienced depression in your 3rd trimester and did it lead to post partum depression? I feel that I may be suffering from pre delivery depression and I am not sure what to do, and I am not sure if it will lead to post partum and whether or not I should speak to my dr or let it ride...Help!

My 5 yr old has been potty trained since 2 yrs old and just recently, the last week has been having potty accidents. Just pee, but I dont understand why. She has never had accidents before and we dont know what to do. Things in her life have changed as we have a 10 month old and another on the way. She also started school this year. I hear that it could be stress related or even medical (constipation or bladder infection) what do you think? have any of you experienced this? HELP!!!!!!

**Warning**Please do not read below if you you have a weak stomach. It is a detailed description and question about mucus plug loss and discharge Im 29 weeks pregnant and I went to the bathroom the other day and I had discharge in my panties...It was unlike any i had seen(i dont remember losing my mucus plug with my other 2) but this was white and very thick...putty like...thick enough that I could pick it up with my hands and it didnt seperate. I looked online and found that a few women had posted pictures of the same thing and were asking other moms about it. Every single person answered that it was indeed part of the mucus plug...another post from another woman asking had a few people say that because she was only 30 weeks and had that type of mucus plug loss that it can actually regenerate itself till im actually ready to go in labor. I need advice though!! Have any of you had this and if so what happened? SHould i be concerned? call my dr?

Mine and my mom's birthday is coming up in 1 month and we are trying to come up with some creative ideas to do. Being that I am pregnant we don't think its too fair to have a party considering I am pregnant, so to have a bunch of people around drinking is no fun for me, so we are looking for creative inexpensive ideas of how to celebrate. Help!!

Did anyone experience belly button pain? And im not talking the pain of when it pops out towards the end, its pain that occurs around 20 weeks because of the position of baby and the skin or uterus is supposed to be the thinnest around the belly button thus causing extreme pain. Its one of those "B list" pregnancy symptoms not alot of people experience or talk about. Im just curious as to how many of you experienced this. Its terribly awkwardly painful!!

My son is only 8 months old but has been standing alone for over a week now and is pretty much an expert at it. He can even bounce up and down and shake a toy in his hand really hard while standing, yet he wont take a step unless we are holding his hand. Im just curious how long your children stood on their own with no support before attempting to take a first step alone.

My 7 month old son was diagnosed with early stage of pnemonia on Friday and is on Prelone(steroid for his lungs) and Zithromax(antibiotic) but has been having diahrriah the last 24 hours. I dont remember this being a side effect of the meds so I am a bit concerned. Should I take him in to the ER or should I wait? Some people tell me only be concerned if he has dhiarriah for 2 days or more but by then it could be too late and he could be dehydrated right? I have been giving him pedialyte but he still has it. Any help you can offer would be great! Thanks a million!!

I am planning my daughter's 6th birthday. She decided she wants a "tea party" theme however we have lots of boys in our family. So we decided on a "Mad Hatter Tea Party". For my son's 1st birthday we are doing a "Tool/Tonka truck/construction" type party. I know some of you are very creative and was wondering if you have any cheap cute ideas as we will be on a budget for both parties! Thanks!!

I know this isnt baby related...but I have had some issues lately with some friends and I need outsider advice. I met my husband and he lived an hour away. I moved with him to his home and am now an hour away from my family and friends. Friends of mine that I introduce to other friends of mine have been making plans and hanging out and not including me or my husband ever. Its as if we don't even exsist. Furthermore, I introduced my friends to my brother in law and his wife and now all MY friends talk to my brother in law more than they do my husband and I. (My brother in law lives about 5 mins away from us by the way) My intial thought about why my friends are hanging out with my other friends and not including me were that I just lived too far away. But now that I found out they are all making plans with my brother in law who is the same distance as us, Im really bothered. My husband and I try to make plans with our friends but they flake out or claim they dont have the money. But when it comes to my brother in law they suddenly have time and money. Everyone seems to think my brother in law is just the most amazing thing to walk to earth even though he isnt. What should I do in this situation? Should I confront my friends and find out why they dont seem to want to make plans with us? or should I just leave it alone? Please help!!! Hubby and I are really having a hard time with what to do

I am having an issue with letting my hubby watch me vaginally deliver our son. I am afraid that if he sees a human coming out of my va~j that it might turn him off sexually in the future. Have any of you been thru this? HELP!!
