How early in your pregnancy can you start to get morning sickness?

Posted on | July 4, 2009 | 1 Comment

About a week ago, I took a positive pregnancy test. I figure that I’m somewhere between 2 and 3 weeks along, but I haven’t made it to the doctor yet, so I don’t know for sure. For the past three days I’ve felt extremely nauseous. I thought it was too early to be getting morning sickness, but my friend says it can start pretty early. Have I come down with something or is it really morning sickness?
Thanks.

Posted on | July 3, 2009 | 1 Comment

With my first pregnancy, which we weren’t trying, I had extremely sore breasts and a missed period.
We have been ttc and I am not due for my period until next week, however I’ve been awfully bloated and my body just aches since we finished trying. I feel like I am, instictually and physically. But those are my only two symptoms. I’m still breastfeeding our 18 month old daughter as well but I’ve had a normal period since she was 3 months old.
How soon do you think I could test? Any suggestions and prior experiences really appreciated!

How can you tell the difference between baby hiccups and twitches?

Posted on | July 3, 2009 | 1 Comment

I’m 25 weeks.

Apparently around 18 weeks babies can jump or twitch when they’re startled, and they can twitch regularly.

How can you tell what’s hiccup and what’s twitching?

The reason why I ask is cos I saw a video on you tube of a baby twitching cos of a health problem. My baby was doing it in time to it!

My baby tends to do these movements at the same kind of time each night - whe I’m in the bath and in bed.

Does that make it a twitch or a hiccup?

The Detrimental Effects of Verbal Abuse and How to Stop the Cycle

“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.”

That’s just not true. Name-calling hurts — especially when the person doing it is a parent, a teacher, or a coach. Yelling and screaming might have been the way you were brought up and you might think it worked for you, so why wouldn’t it work for your kids? But did it? Remember how it made you feel. You probably felt belittled, devalued, and insignificant. You certainly don’t want your own children to feel that way. It may cause emotional trauma that can result in long-term hurt. Among other things, verbal abuse can undermine your child’s self-esteem, damage his ability to trust and form relationships, and chip away at his academic and social skills. Name-calling, swearing, insulting, threatening bodily harm, blaming or using sarcasm are all forms of verbal abuse.

What are the signs that a child is suffering from verbal abuse? They may have a very negative self-image. They may commit acts that are self-destructive, such as cutting, hitting or scratching themselves, as well as other reckless and dangerous activities. They may exhibit physical aggression, be delinquent in school, or display interpersonal problems. They may hit other children, frequently fight with classmates at school, or be cruel to animals. They may also exhibit delays in their social, physical, academic or emotional development.

Recent research suggests that children who suffer from verbal abuse are highly likely to become victims of abuse later in life, become abusive themselves, or become depressed and self-destructive later in life

It’s normal for most parents at one time or another to feel frustrated and angry with their children. They may lash out verbally in these instances and say things they later regret. It’s when these instances become more and more frequent that there is cause for concern. If this describes you, it’s imperative that you seek professional help to learn more positive, meaningful and constructive forms of discipline, and for help in learning methods to control your anger. Remember to give yourself a time out if you feel an outburst coming on. Try to refrain from saying mean, sarcastic or belittling things to your child. Remember, your child learns what he lives. Don’t be a bad example and teach him bad behavior early on.

Remember that your child is a precious gift and should be treated with love, kindness, respect and tenderness. If you exhibit these to your child on a daily basis, they will learn what they live and grow to do the same as adults.
