I am a 23 soon to be 24 year old mother of a soon to be 2 year old. I love my life as a newer mother. I am a walking pregnancy dictionary. I was on bed rest the last trimester of my pregnancy and read just about every pregnancy book out there!

  • Im a little confused on this one?

    am not supposed to get my period until next week and it started yesterday but it has been lighter and ended today. Normally its about 6. I have been TTC with my guy. I also have a pretty bad cold right now. We just started TTC so i doubt we were successful at it. Could it just be an early period? I have heard of implantation bleeding and had it with my son but not like this. Im just a little concerned/confused. Any input would be great. Thanks

  • Someone please...i need advice before i pull my hair out!?

    My son is very defiant only towards me. He is my everything and he knows that. He will be 2 on April 12th. He listens to my husband who works days ( I work nights) without any fuss. For me on the other hand, if i try to get him to nap or tell him to pick up something he threw to the floor etc..he tells me no, stop it, or damnit. Especially when I put him in for a nap. He acts crazy when it comes to that. He is in a bed so I put a gate in front of his doorway and I dont shut his door all the way because when he actually does fall asleep i want to hear him. Anyway, he will throw the worst tantrum and repeatedly say DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT.....it is really starting to make me very angry when i hear him say it. He also tries to hit me! We DO NOT swear in front of or hit him. I just dont understand why he does to me only. How can I nip this before it gets worse?

  • How do I keep up the MOTIVATION!?

    Okay I have been going to the gym. I signed up last week and went every day but I took the weekend off. I am honestly really enjoying it but here is the thing. I have been to the gym in the past and would go for a month or two. I want to keep at it to lose some pregnancy weight and also after my goal is accomplished I would like to keep up with it! I have to admit I already feel better about myself. I am just afraid I will lose the motivation to keep at it. How do you keep it up? I feel like I might be able to because after I had my son I learned quite a bit...like patience! How did you do it?

  • I suspect I am pregnant?

    I suspect I am pregnant because I am having a lot of symptoms. I was on the nuva ring and I took it out early ( 5 days ago.) I have not started my period yet. I think I was supposed to get it because everytime I take it out I get my period. I havent gotten it yet. Can I test now even though it is early?

  • I need some opinions please?

    I have been on the Nuvaring since my son was born and have never felt anything so strange. (my son is 21 months) I have been having bad breast tenderness and my nipples hurt to the touch. Also I have been having a lot of discharge the past 2 weeks and the thought of pregnancy ran through my mind a little but I thought it was a far stretch since I am on birth control and use it the right way. Yesterday and all last night I was having back and uterus stiffness. It feels a little odd in the front..i dont really know if it is my uterus but thats what it feels like. It almost feels the way it did when I was pregnant with my son. It doesnt seem likely but it could it be?

  • Nuvaring effectiveness ?

    I put my Nuvaring in a day late this month which was last Friday and I was supposed to put it in on Thursday. Maybe this is TMI but why am I having so much discharge and why do my breasts feel heavy and tender? I know there is a chance you could get pregnant on birth control but it is 99% effective and the likelihood of that is slim to none. I would just like some opinions or experiences.

    I am a mother of a beautiful 21 month old boy btw!

  • We just got our 21 month old a bed and..?

    How do we get him to sleep in it. He has been climbing out of his crib and I don't want him to get hurt. Should we set up the bed and leave his crib in his room? Or should I remove the crib all together? Im not really sure how to go about this. He is our first child.

  • Need your input..please answer?

    My son is about 21 months old. Yesterday he had some diarrhea and that was it. He is acting totally normal besides that. He usually naps at around 11:30 am but my friend needed me to watch her daughter who is the same age so needless to say there were no naps taken! He was acting fine until she left. He seemed really fussy (tired) and he cried so much he threw up. He fell asleep in my arms and I put him in his crib. A few minutes later he woke up crying because he was coughing. He felt a little warm so I took him out of his crib and took his temp and it was 101.4. He then asked me for a snack! So I gave him some gold fish and gave him some Tylenol and water to drink. He just went back to sleep. He was acting totally normal before he went back to sleep. He wanted to play but was just too tired. He was chewing on his finger too.. I have not seen him do that in a while. I examined his mouth and didnt see any tooth action. Im just worried. Do you think he is sick or teething?
