mom of 7yr B,3yr G,1yr B

found out i was preg 7-10-11 with my 4th pregnancy. I have 3 live children. started spotting 7-15-11 so went to the ER and HCG level was 226. doctor said that was really low for me being 6wks according to LMP 6/3/11. on 7-16-11 I was bleeding more, went to ER and my HCG level went up to 566. Monday 7-18-11 I went to see my OB, he couldnt see anything in the sono, so he said I may be miscarrying. that monday night I was having labor pains, went to ER and my HCG level went down to 212. So he said because I was so early it should all come out on its own down to 0 in no time. I stopped bleeding and cramping a week later, My husband and I were intimate on 8-2-11 and used protection. I saw my OB on 8-9-11 (2wks after m/c) and he said everything looked good in a sono to make sure my uterus was emptying and got more blood drawn to make sure my HCG levels are going down. He calls me the next day saying my HCG level went up to 766, So I went back in 8-11-11 for more blood work and saw him 8-12-11 and he said they went down to 556. Im so confused and dunno what is going on, He said since Im not in pain or bleeding we can wait it out. I see him again 8-15-11 for more blood work. They did do an U/S on 8-11-11 and he just said my lining of my uterus is thick. at first he wasnt sure if it was a new pregnancy but since my HCG level went down again he thinks maybe its left over stuff, but he said it should have gone back down to 0 by now. Any one gone through anything similiar?

i found out i was pregnant on 7-10-11 with my fourth pregnancy. I have 3 live wonderful children. I started spotting 7-15-11 so I went to the ER and HCG level was 226. The doctor said that was pretty low for me supposedly being 6wks. on 7-16-11 I was bleeding more, went to the ER and my HCG level went up to 566. on the Monday 7-18-11 I went to see my OB and he couldnt see anything in the sono, so he said I may be miscarrying. Well that monday night I was having labor pains, went to the ER and my HCG level went down to 212. So he said because I was so early it should all come out on its own down to 0 in no time and scheduled me to see him again in 2wks. Well I stopped bleeding and cramping a week later, My husband and I were intimate on 8-2-11 and used protection cuz I didnt wana get pregos again rt away. So I saw my dr this week on 8-9-11 and he said everything looked good, He took some blood to make sure my HCG levels are going down.

My first son is 6yrs old. was exclusively breastfed and I never gave him the pacifier and he hardly ever took a bottle. went straight to sippy cups. I didnt start working til he was 6mths. My daughter on the other hand. i wanted to exclusively breastfeed but my mom would giver her bottles here and there cuz i had to start working again 12wks after I had her so she didnt want her to be just used to breast. Any how my mom started giving her the pacifier when she was a newborn just to keep her asleep and since then was always given a paicfier. now she is 2 and a half and I can not seem to just wean her off it. even getting her off the bottle was hard, that happened before she turned 2. my son was off it by a lil after he turned 1. i know all babies are diff. anyway my daughter will cry non stop til she gets her paci or in the middle of the night if its not in her mouth when shes wakes up she cries, waking up my 3mths old...who has never and will not take the paci. even during the day she just wants it just to have it, and i have to get her occupied with something els to get her mind off it. even when she falls to sleep i take it out of her mouth but sometimes she wakes up. i know she doesnt 'need' it and its just a comfort for her but i dont want her teeth to mess up. she has all of them and they seem a bit pushed out on the top, but still look ok. I just dont know what to do to get her completely off it. any tips or suggestions?? plz and thank you. oh and ive tried hiding them but i found out she has her own lil stash and hides them from me so i cant take them away. shes very smart and mature for her age, seeing her with a paci...ppl think shes younger then what she is, or make comments like 'omg she stil uses a pacifier'

ok heres the deal. just this past tues, 3 days agao, i tried going to pick up my son from my parents house. he stayed with them for 2wks just because he misses them. he grew up with them cuz i lived with them til he was 5 and a half and he will be 6 in 2wks. wel they knew i had plans to take him out for spring break and had bought tickets for the witte museum dino exhibit. well he cried histerically when he found out my parents wernt going...oh and my parents hate my hubby and think he abuses my son and have put crap in his head since he was young saying i dnt love him and whatever, he has never touch my son in the 2yrs ive been with him and bcuz im always there and he has never had marks or told me anything. im 100% sure of this, but yet my parents keep putting crap in his head making him thinks things have happened to him...well as i tried getting my son in the car my mom came pushing me trying to get him out so i pushed back. then she started hitting me so in defense i hit her back and my dad came around choking me. as that happened my hubby got out of the car and tried helping me and my dad turned on him along with my younger brother (19) and ganged up on him. my son seeing the whole ting, with my mom telling him 'that if anyone asks you saw him (my hubby) hit me"-my mother. well i had my 2 yr old daughter and 3mth old son in the car while all this happened.i called the cops and told them my story while i heard my mom telling them lies. anyway my hubby was taking by EMS to a hospital and i got checked cuz i was 11wks postpardum with a c section. they caused bruising to my hubby and bleeding inside me from my section. anyway i got my son and the cops told them they have no right holding mu son against me...this is also not the first time they tried holding em. nor the 1st time my mom has assaulted me..she did when i was prego...but it was the 1st time my dad assaulted me and my hubby. he and my bro went to jail. well my sons been crying for them ever since sayign he wants to see and call them. i plan on pressing charges and getting restraining orders on them but idk what to tell my son. any suggestions??

Hi I had a baby on xmas and just started back at work 2wks ago. before that I was exclusively breastfeeding and everything was great. I work 12hrs shifts 3nights a wk...at work right now. and pump at least 3 times while at work. at first i was pumping at least 2 or 3 ounces from each breast now its gone down to 1 and a half ounce, 2 ounces, each breast if im lucky. i dont eat as much as i did when i was just at home but i try to eat whenever i can, and since i work til 6am i end up sleeping all day but stil breastfeed my baby when im there along with taking care of my other 2 which are 2 and 6yrs old. so you can see i dont get much rest either cuz the hubby is at work during the day. and I just started those mini POPS birth control pills a week ago that you can take while breastfeeding but idk if that has anything to do with it. The doctor told me they shouldnt effect my supply at all. I drink alot of water and juices. a soda every other day. i eat at least 3 times a day on the days i work if i can. I work in an ER so i dont always have time to eat. I dont get or fill as full as i used to and idk what to do. and my baby seems a lil more fussier but he stil poops and pees about the same amount and on my days off ill eat more then usual and try to get my rest. but stil dont fill full or like he is getting anything, and i sure dont pump as much anymore. hes running out of breast milk bottles at home and i dont want him to have to go on formula. please help!
