I'm pregnant, and I keep hearing awful birth stories!

astromama @astromama (1221) • United States 12 Feb 07

I would like to hear some uplifting birth stories. I'm 31 weeks pregnant and it seems like birth was just an awful experience for a lot of women. I would like to know what you loved about your labor and/or how it could have been...

Threebeans I had twins c-section at 36 weeks. It was scheduled since they were breech/transverse, and I was scared to death. Nothing to it. I didn't think it was bad at all. My water broke early, and I had contractions on the way to the hospital and a few before they...

eaforeman6 @eaforeman6 (8979) • United States 9 Feb 07

Why You Should Never Lick Envelopes What you don't know, wont hurt you, but this one it sure is worth knowing. I used to work for an envelope company. Our plant supervisor used to work in the Chicago plant and told us not to...

Threebeans Okay I can see some gross water getting into the glue, and many times rat droppings can get into stuff like that, but the cockroach thing is false. Never believe what you read/hear on the internet without checking out snopes.com. Go there (I can't paste) and...

ginny36 @ginny36 (266) • United States 10 Feb 07

Here in the US, we're creeping up on tax time again. My former husband always handled the taxes in our household. Now that I'm single again, I'm debating whether to use a program like Turbotax or pay a professional tax preparer....

Threebeans When I was single I did them myself, as I just did the 1040EZ, and it was just that, easy. Once I was married and owned a home I used Taxcut software or Turbo Tax. That was with my ex, now my new husband and I have kids as well so we just take all our forms,...

Threebeans Ugh, sounds like you are going through what I did with my ex. I didn't have a child with him though. He never did quit smoking pot, and he is still set in his ways, and these both make me feel so much better about leaving him. I couldn't take it anymore, I...

Threebeans I am going in on March 6th, if not before for a repeat c section. My first was with twins fifteen months ago. I was really nervous the first time around but had confidence in my OB. Baby A was breech and baby b was transverse so that is why we chose c/s. It...

How to get my son to not cry when I change his diaper?

Michele21 @Michele21 (3093) • United States 9 Feb 07

Every time I go to change my son's diaper he acts like I am beating him. It doesn't last but a few seconds (because I change him fast), but he acts like I am so mean to take him away from the TV or playing to change his diaper....

Threebeans This happens to me as well. I have twin girls, fourteen months and when I have to change them, they run away from me. When I catch them they scream until it is over, so yes I consider myself a champion quick changer! What I have noticed with my girls is...

How do "dirty" people NOT know they smell?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 8 Feb 07

I know we have all met and been around a "dirty" person that just simply smells. How on earth do you think they cannot tell they stink? Do you think they know and just don't care? I understand in some cases it's a medical...

Threebeans I totally agree with you. I am an Admin Assistant and have had to do the write up for someone that had been talked to numerous times for their body odor. The supervisors unfortunately had to talk to two of the guys who worked there many times. If either of...
