  • A great deal of mouth pain due to wisdom teeth and chewing on cheeks, accompanied by bruising?

    My wisdom teeth started coming in July 2011, when i was pregnant. Since then, my teeth have hurt off and on, there's been some shifting, and my right wisdom tooth popped out of the gum, but the left one won't. My right tooth hurts all the time, and i use my knuckle to put as much pressure on it as i can, because it feels better. Like I'm teething. And my left tooth isn't the same situation. It only hurts sometimes. And i don't have the urge to put pressure on that side. But my left side, the past few days has had me almost in tears, and my last molar is starting to wiggle. And my gum where my wisdom tooth is is a dark purple, and underneath all of my bottom teeth, in a line from the back of my mouth to my bottom canine, is also all dark purple. Like a bruise. I also have always chewed on my cheeks.. and I've always had white teeth marks set in the side of my mouth from it, but now instead of being white, it's also bruised. The bruises don't hurt. Just my teeth.And it's causing bad breath. When i put pressure on my wisdom teeth, i get a bad taste in my mouth and my breath stinks. I brush my teeth everyday, and i floss. Especially when my teeth start hurting really bad, which is often. Was supposed to get the teeth removed 2 years ago but my health insurance is terrible. And now I don't have dental. Is this an infection? Is there anything i can do to relieve the pain?

  • Toddler screaming during the night?

    My daughter is 15 months. She just had her well check-up, and is completely healthy, as usual. She isn't teething. So I know it's not that. She has all her teeth already up to her first molars. She has been waking up like every 5 minutes screaming at the top of her lungs. Not just crying hard. Legitimately screaming. It's driving me up a wall. What can I do?? Why is she doing this??

  • Google Chrome won't let me use Facebook?

    It will let me on my Facebook page, but I'm not able to click anything, post statuses or comments, like anything, and it won't show me who's online. It tells me how many are online, but doesnt show anyone in the side cluster to the left. This has been going on for about 2 days now. And any other site that links with facebook, won't link. Like Pinterest. It won't link to my facebook. What do I do??

  • How did my sister pass her drug test?? I'd like a health professional's answer please?

    My sister is 15 years old. Today, she came up to me after staying after school and told me she smoked weed with her boyfriend instead of going to detention, like she was supposed to (and my mom thinks she's an angel.. HA!). So, I told my mom about it. Not, to be a b-tch. Just because she's been failing all her classes, sleeping all the time, and cutting class. She already failed 7th grade. Now she's gonna fail 9th grade. So, yea, I told my mom. I don't care. So my mom's boyfriend picked up a drug test, and she showed up Negative. How did that happen?? I know she was high. It was VERY obvious. I used to smoke when I was a teenager. I think we all have at least tried it. It's not hard to figure out when someone is high. Her eyes were red, glossy, and tired, she ate EVERYTHING she could get her hands on. She covered a poptart in peanut butter -_- ..and she REAKED of weed. So, can someone tell me please, how in the world she passed the drug test??? By the way, not the first time someone I know has passed a drug test when they were high. How does that work??

  • Legal advice? I'm a single mom, 22 years old, and my mom abuses me in front of my child, ....?

    I'm 22 years old, and just had a baby July 2 of this year.. Me and my boyfriend were living with his mom, but their company just sold and they got huge pay cuts, so she moved and we had no other choice but to move into my mom's.. My whole life, my mom has been abusive.. Physically and verbally.. And as i got older, it's happened less often, but when it does happen, it's worse than it used to be.. so now I have no choice but to defend myself.. That doesn't go well though, since I only weigh roughly 105 lbs soaking wet, and my mom is about 200 lbs, and I'm not a fighter.. Fighting is her nature though.. But anyway, she just had the balls to tell me I'M a bad mom.. Which is bullshit.. I do everything i can for my daughter, I'm with her allllll the time, I LOVE being a mom.. I've always said it's what I'm supposed to do.. I feel like that's my purpose.. And I'm the one who's always feeding her, playing with her, talking to her, reading her books, and I'm starting college in September for Radiography and Nuclear Medicine, for my daughter.. I want to be able to give her everything.. My mom says I'm a bad mom and all I do is sit her in her bouncy seat and play on the computer, and that I push her off to my sister all the time, and I don't take care of her.. None of that is true.. The only time my mom sees me is when it's time for dinner.. And I sit her in her bouncy so I can eat.. The rest of the time, She's either in the excer-saucer, having tummy time on the Boppy, or I'm holding her playing with her.. And I never pawn her off to my sister.. My sister comes downstairs and asks for her and half the time i tell her "Not right now".. But I don't mind my sister playing with her.. I do NOT push my daughter off though.. Nor would I ever.. Now let's compare my mom as a parent.. She was always a partier.. Hence her getting knocked up by a 24 year old pervert when she was 15 and in 10th grade, and had to drop out of school, and didn't even bother getting her GED til I was 8.. She used to drop me off at my grandparent's all the time for days on end to go party, and no one would know where she was, she used to beat the crap out of me all the time, and let her drunken, drug addict, ex-husband abuse me on a serious level, and she'd yell at me when I tried to tell someone and DYFS came to the house, and she did drugs when I was little.. So seriously?? Ok.. I'M the bad mom.. Anyway, I can feel the tension starting again and I know either today, tomorrow, soon, she's gonna try to put her hands on me again.. and I'm NOT tolerating it.. she hit me when I was pregnant too.. And I wanted to press charges and do something about it, but i couldn't, because I had nowhere else to go.. And I'm in the same situation now.. But, I'm at my limit.. I'm gonna sign up for welfare and get cash assistance and food stamps, so I can move out soon.. When I move out, what can I do? What would be the best option? Cause I feel terrible for my daughter.. She isn't going to have any grandparents.. My dad is a lost cause.. I dont talk to him because he's a loser pothead pervert who lives in his parent's basement, is as mature as a 10 year old boy, and is a cocky asshole who also wants nothing to do with me.. My poppop has dimensia.. My boyfriend's mom moved to Delaware.. I feel horrible.. I hate that my family is full of immature, inconsiderate, selfish, ignorant assholes.. I'm just so hurt.. I just need legal advice please.. Thank you

  • Legal questions about hyphenating my daughter's last name when she's born?

    Me and the father of my child broke up April 16 because of his excessive partying, disrespect, and lying. Ever since, he's been hardly involved in the pregnancy. He shows such little interest, never calls or texts to see how I'm feeling and how the baby's doing. During the whole pregnancy so far, He's only felt her kick 2 times. Mind you, I'm 8 months pregnant. I ask him all the time to spend a few hours with me here and there so he can interact, but he refuses to because he thinks its just me trying to hang out with him, when in all actuality, I'd like to never see him again because of everything he's put/putting me through. So we were arguing the other day, and I brought up the fact that I'm giving our daughter my last name since he shows no interest and isn't involved and all he cares about is himself, partying, tattoos, and other girls. He told me that's the most evil thing I can possibly do, and we've been arguing about it everyday since. I want for him, so bad, to be a part of the pregnancy and her life, but if he isn't going to, why does he deserve for her to have his last name? So I was wondering, if the child has the father's last name, does he have more legal rights? I was told this by alot of my friends. But, if so, what about hyphenating? does it matter which name comes first in the hyphenation? I don't want to have to go to court for anything besides child support. But I don't want the courts looking at him like he's an upstanding father just because I decided to give her his last name or put his first or second in the hyphenation. Please help me with this. Thank you so much.

  • Buspar during 3rd trimester pregnancy?

    I am 27 weeks pregnant and just had to break up with my boyfriend because he's a selfish liar. But anyway.. I was also diagnosed when I was 13 with depression. It used to be so bad that my guidance councilor at school, my psychiatrist, and the local psych ward thought it would be in the best interest if i was admitted. I didn't go though. Instead, I worked through it on my own. It took a longgggg time, but I handled it alot better. But now, going through everything I'm going through, and this being such a screwed up situation, I cry nonstop, get anxiety attacks, and i was scared I was stressing the baby out, cause every time I start crying now, she starts kicking the crap out of me. So I went to my doctor the other day asking them if there is anything they can give me for depression, that won't effect my baby. Something safe. So they gave me Vistaril and assured me "it's perfectly safe and they give it to pregnant women all the time". So I took it. The first day, I took one, and it worked great, but the second day, i took one at 3:30pm and it never kicked in, but i noticed the baby wasn't moving around too much, which is odd, cause she's insanely active. So I didnt take anymore, and I waited, and i still barely felt her move even into today. So I went to the doctor today, and they said, "yea, well it can slow the baby down". I was like, "if i made it clear that I dont want something that will effect her, wyh would you give me something that would slow her down??" Needless to say, I was p*ssed. So I'm doing research now, and found Buspar. It's labeled as a Category B drug, and used alot of the time as a first choice. Has anyone used this during pregnancy? Is it safe? Was your baby ok? Cause I need something, but i dont want it to effect her at all. Thank you!
