My period is supposed to come on the 19th, so I am 3 days away. For the past week I have had very sore breasts which never happens before I get my period. The only sign that I am about to get my period is a pimple or two on my face.

Not only do I have sore breasts but I am also having a little clumpy brown blood today and a very minor cramp.

With my other pregnancies the bad nauseua always started after I got a positive test but I never used to track my periods so I don't know when in my cycle I got a positive test before. Right now, I have taken two tests today and both are negative. So could I be pregnant still or is this probably my period since the two tests said negative?

I just got back into WoW after a few months away and I downloaded curse and got my addons but when I go to the character screen the addon button is gone. Is there something I'm missing?

My 3 year old is going to go to an elementary school in May to get a speech screening to see if she needs some speech classes. The person on the phone didn't tell me much about it so I was wondering if anyone had a child that took a screening and had to take speech classes. What is the screening like and what are the classes like?

My daughter turns 3 on March 26 and for the past month or two she has been sticking her tongue out and spitting. Sometimes in people's faces and some times just to do it. We have ignored it, asked her to stop, and put soap in her mouth (she thought it was funny) and none of that has worked. She is a very sweet and funny kid but this habit of hers is really annoying some times and I don't want her to keep getting in people's faces to spit on them. She only does it to family members it seems. I haven't seen her do it to any of my friends of her play mates.

She just turned 4 months old today and she very rarely will focus on anything. Faces, toys, whatever. She just looks around everywhere and doesn't settle on anything. She can hear us, I know that and she has looked at me before in my eyes, but it is pretty rare. I don't remember having this concern about my first baby. When did your baby start focusing well on things?

She is going to her doctor for her check up soon.

I went to the hospital with the most intense pain I have ever felt in my middle stomach and back and turns out I have gallstones. That was about a week ago and since then I have an inflamed gallbladder that hurts pretty bad every night. When I lay down in any way, the pain gets worse because it feels like the gallbladder is being smashed. I take 2 percocets and an 800 mg motrin for it but that takes hours to kick in and I have two kids and work in the morning and the percocets knock me out for like 12 hours. I have been eating fruit mostly and water but that doesn't stop the pain from coming every night. So is there anything else I can do?

So if you say avoid fat and greasy food and take pills you will look like a dumb ***, okay? I've done that.

It's my fiance's birthday and he wants an apple pie with a graham cracker crust.

I really suck at cooking and baking so I need some help.

I was going to buy a pre-made graham cracker crust and a can of apples. What I need help with is what should I add to to the pie, like cinnamon sugar or something? If so, how much? And also how long should I cook the pie for and at what temperature? He doesn't mind if it doesn't come out like an actual pie but more of a cobbler or something that we can just spoon out.

Please share with me your stories of how you got your child to stop with the pacifier. I have wanted to just try to cold turkey her but if there is a better way then I would like to hear it. She is very addicted to it and not only is she addicted to the paci, she has to have her blanket any time she has her paci and vice versa.

When you go to a court house to get married, how much does it cost and what all goes into the process?

I'm gonna ask for some opinions before I call my doctor. It is 6 in the morning and everyone I know is asleep :[

Since about 11 I have been having contractions. They are starting in my back and working their way around the front and have gotten progressively worse through out the night. When I get one now I moan in pain and they are lasting about 30 secs. In between the contractions I am getting dull back aches and minor cramps that last a couple seconds. When I move I cause one of the little contractions to happen but sometimes just moving a little bit in bed will cause a big contraction to come. Now to me this sounds like labor but the problem is that these contractions have not been regular at all. They are ranging from half an hour apart to 7 minutes. But, they are bad enough that they are keeping me awake and very much in pain. No water breakage either and I haven't felt the baby move much in about 6 hours.

So does anyone have any opinions on this? As in, does this sound like it could be labor or most likely just false labor contractions.

Since yesterday afternoon I feel like I have been leaking fluid off and on. It is coming from my vagina not my pee hole, I can tell that for sure, and it is more of a leak then I have felt for the past few weeks. It isn't steady but it is a distinct trickle that starts for a second or two and then stops for a while and then I feel it again a few minutes later. I am wearing a pad and the pad isn't drenched or anything but it is damp. I am having slight contractions at random but nothing steady. Should I go to the hospital and see if my water really did break or is this normal for 37 1/2 weeks. And if I do go and my water hasn't broke do you think they will send me home if I am a good 3 cm dilated?

First off, as of Tuesday I am a "good 3 cm dilated" according to my doctor.

Last night I had strong contractions starting about 1:30am and being 5-10 minutes apart. I ended up falling asleep but whenever I woke up to pee or move I would feel one or two before I fell back asleep. Today I haven't had any contractions at all but from my ribs down I am very sore. My pelvic bones, hips and tops of my thighs feel beat up. Is this some sort of good sign for me going into labor very soon? I've been 3 cm for almost 2 weeks now.

I am late on my period. I don't know how late because I don't keep track but I know I didn't have my period in January. I have been nauseous randomly but not throwing up, just getting nauseous when I eat sometimes and it passes. I took a nap today and when I sat up I got horribly sharp pains all over my belly. I had to lay back down flat to make them go away and I got nauseous from it. I have taken about 3 tests over the past month and they all say negative, but I am having a lot of signs. I have been pregnant before and I didn't have any signs before I took the test, but a week later I started in with the vomiting and what not. I have been having unprotected sex since December as well. So, am I just a hypochondriac or are all of those tests wrong? Should I go get another one now and try it? Can you have signs of pregnancy before a test will show positive? I don't want to go to a doctor yet until one of these darn tests say that I am.

My fiance was let go from his job in February and got on unemployment. We received our first check which was 15 dollars short of being a full check from where we worked. Considering that he got paid the week before for his last week on the job, we though this was a one week check. A few days later, we got a check for 44 dollars and we aren't sure why. Now after we requested his second bi weekly check, a check came for the same amount as his first check. Why is this? Isn't this supposed to be a double pay week check? Are we possibly going to get another one later or is our third check possibly going to be more then just one week? We live in Kentucky if that makes any difference.

We can't get a hold of any one at the employment agency, so we thought to ask you all on here before we go down there to find out what's going on. Please give any thoughts on this.

And if there is, is it a full version or a clipped version?
