I am 27 weeks and have been having bad heartburn. I take Tums when it comes on and even sleep with the bottle next to my bed. It doesn't seem to matter what I eat. Anyone have any other suggestions besides Tums?

1) What are some good ways to get a dog to stop digging? We have a Great Dane that seems like she's trying to dig herself a swimming pool! Any ideas on how to stop the behavior? (She does it when we're gone so we can't "catch her in the act" and surprise her)

2) Our Golden seems to be neurotic. He's really needy. Maybe it's because he was abandoned when his parents moved. We adopted him from the shelter and he was fine for awhile and now he acts like he needs to be at our sides at all times. He also doesn't seem to "get it" when he's punished. Does anyone else have experience like this? What do you suggest we try to help him? I feel so sorry for him. He seems like he's in a constant state of anxiety. I am contemplating calling Cesar Milan, the "Dog Whisperer." Thanks in advance.

We all know that foster care needs to be fixed. What are your suggestions? Also, do you think foster parents be required to know English and if they don't, should a child who only speaks English be allowed in that home? Do you think there should be a limit to how many you can have at a time?

I know it's been asked before and I've read the results. However, I've heard that Target brand are really good too (and about 1/2 the price). Have you tried Target brand and what's your opinion? Thank you in advance.

I am not sure if I want Lamaze or Bradley. I think Lamaze seems a little frantic. Bradley seems more appealing becasue it is meditative and calming, but I know they are against epidurals which I am probably going to have. Also, if I am having an epidural are the birthing classes really necessary?

I always think about it and forget to ask my doctor. Does anyone know?

I know it's silly but someone did it to me before and I wanted to know if its a boy if the necklace goes back or forth or in a circle. I get an ultrasound on April 2 and the girl who did it before said it would be a boy and I just think it would be fun to try it again and then see if it is right. Thanks.
