  • oversea screening at the EFMP?

    Ok, so my husband's company is a whole heck of a lot behind. My husband has to be in Hawaii in less than 1 month and we just started the screening last week. Just got all the paper work in, and they informed us that our older sons doctor said he had a learning disability(he's 2 and we had never heard anything about it before then). Now, I looked online, and from what his doctor recommended when we move can be done over in Hawaii, but we are concerned that they could read the paperwork wrong. So, if they decline our request... what happens next? Do we get our son evaluated and then start the process all over again? All his doctor recommended is that he have a developmental eval and then if he needs it to have him go to occupational therapy. And she said these things could wait until we moved. My husband doesn't even have orders yet because we're waiting on this. If they decline it, will he have to go there by himself and then I would have to take all 3 of our kids on a 10 hr flight by myself? Would they really make me do that? Or would they have him fly back and then fly with us? This is our first time going overseas as a family. I don't know how this stuff works.

  • 22 years old wanting to get tubes tied...?

    I am 22 years old and pregnant with my 3rd child. I was wondering what, if any, age requirement there was in Maryland to have my tubes tied. I really do not want anymore children. The 2 I currently have drive my nuts, god only knows how I'll handle 3 kids. I'll have 1 girl and 2 boys after this baby is born. I am married to the father of all 3 kids and have been since I was 18. He would certainly approve of this as well, since he does not want anymore children as well. And before we start on IUD's, that is how I got pregnant with this child. So, I'm done trying to find a temporary solution. I do not want anymore children. Just not sure if the doctor will allow it if there is an age restriction in Maryland. Thanks

  • Rabbit with Intermittent soft stool?

    I was told to take my rabbit off of pellets all together to get rid of the ISS issue he was having. So far it has worked, he gets fresh veggies, lots of hay, and a little bit of fruit everyday. My worry is that he might not be getting all the vitamins that are needed that he'd be getting from the pellets. He drinks a thousand times as much water as he did before, and his bedding is always sopping wet a day after I change it. I'm constantly feeding him. I think i put like 5 handfuls of hay in a day (timothy) and I give him a wide range of different green veggies. He only gets fruits as a treat. I'm just wondering, should I be giving him a dietary supplement, and maybe a little bit of old fashioned rolled oats? I've never had a rabbit with ISS before and we've recently moved so I have no way of going to see the vet i went to to ask her these questions.

  • pinpoint sized red bumps on stomach during pregnancy?

    I have these itch less rash on my stomach. It's not located anywhere else on my body, just my stomach. The bumps are really little, like I said, pinpoint sized, and they aren't clumped together. They are actually rather spread out. I will be talking to my Dr about it when I get the chance, but I've had it all through out my second trimester and wasn't worried because everything I've read talked about itching rashes and this doesn't itch at all. Anyone have any ideas as to what it could be?

  • Baby name help... PLEASE!?

    Ok, so when it comes to my hubby he's really no help at picking names. I've asked my family, and they all come up with liking different names. So, Now I'll ask all of you. I've got 5 names here, all are Celtic names for Boys. Let me know which one you like best. If i don't figure it out I'll be in the hospital still not knowing what to pick because my husband just keeps saying he'll know when one grows on him. Because they are Celtic, they are "normal" names. My husbands all for normal names, but I'm really not. So, here are the names.

    Braedon

    Kendall

    Cedric

    Mackenzie

    Mckale

    Middle name is Sean and Last name Gibson. Thanks Everyone!!!

  • Is it alright for my husband....?

    to call our child "kid" when he is trying to get her attention. I mean she does have a name, but he NEVER uses it. And then when he's yelling at her saying no... it's alway "kid, no" or "god bless it kid, stop" I mean she's only 2, and she does know her name. When he's yelling at her to stop something she doesn't seem to realize he's actually yelling at her because he never uses her name so then he gets even more mad at her and will swat her bum and he'll say "kid I told you to stop"

  • My daughter has fluorosis effecting her baby teeth, will this also impact the way her adult teeth look?

    I never knew fluoride would do such a thing, the doctor was all for her drinking tap water and having her formula mixed with tap water. I just notice a few months ago that her teeth didn't look right, and came to find out it was from the tap water. I'm just wondering if this is going to effect her adult teeth as well.

    Additional Details

    she is going on to be 2 years old and i believe i started to give her tap water on the doctors recommendation at about 6 months old to help her teeth. It really didn't help her teeth at all.

  • stomach twitching at 8 weeks pregnant?

    This isn't my first pregnancy, so i understand that it's not the baby moving, since you don't feel that until in the second trimester. But at times I have twitching near my ribs, or down where the uterus is. Does anyone know what this is? It's not the same as having gas, you can look down at my stomach and actually see the twitching just like it'd look if it were the baby.

  • What to do with first child while in labor?

    I'm a military wife, and although my husband would be able to be there none of my family will be able to be there with my first born. She will be two by then. I'm not that far along yet, but I'm just thinking ahead of time about what i should do. I'm from MI, and we just moved to MD, but I'm just freaked out about what to do with my daughter. I don't want to go banging on the neighbors door in the middle of the night if i go into labor at night. Or i could wait it out through out the night and then bring her over in the morning, but what if i end up having a home birth that way??? I'm so confused, with my first child i ended up have preeclampsia so i had to be induced. That was at 35 weeks. I had it longer than the doctors knew though because i ended up having a 4 pound baby.

  • could i be pregnant.?

    It is possible to get pregnant from having sex the day after you get off of your period. I have heard the no's and the 7 days before, 7 days after. I've heard that you are the most horny when you are most fertile. I am typically most horny right after my period, not before hand. My husbands been in korea for a year and a half and got home on my last day of my period. We had sex the next day, it has been about 3 weeks since then and I am having symptoms of being pregnant. I have had a child before so i kinda noticed them right off the bat. I never get really tender breasts before my period comes and i have maybe 5 days before my period should arrive. I took a test and it came back negative, yet I'm tired all the time and i eat very little and feel very full. it hurts to have any source of pressure on my lower abdomen. the doctors had kept giving me mixed times for when i got pregnant, even at the beginning. Had one ultra sound, and they said i was on track for one date and it corresponded to my last period, then had a second one and they said i was a month off of the date. Anywho, is it possible that i got pregnant after my period. I don't typically feel horny any other day besides for a couple of days after my period. I know it's a hell of a question.

  • Dog vomiting twice after eating?

    My dog has been the type to stop eating when he is done with his food, and he doesn't really scarf his food down, He eats twice a day, and I've been switching his food over for a while now. switching from proplan puppy to innova evo. I have been giving him 1/3 of the proplan and 3/4 of the evo for about 2 weeks now since I still have a lot of the puppy left over i wanted to use it all up. Any who, Just yesterday her started to throw up his food. It wasn't a regurgitation, it was certainly vomit. You could hear him making noises all the way upstairs. When i went to clean it up it was partially digested food and partially undigested food. BTW, puppy is 10 months old and hasn't had any bones or rawhides in at least 2 months. And even back then it was only like 1 a month. Bowel movements seem to be normal. He's only done this twice, breakfast today and dinner last night. Each time he's done it it has been at least an hour after he has eaten. Last night it was much longer than an hour. Maybe like 3 or 4 hours after he had eaten. He seems to be acting fine, there has been no change in his behavior to make me think he is ill other than the vomiting. And I'm not entirely sure what he could have gotten into as we have just moved and our stuff has yet to arrive at our new home. Thank you for your help. If you need any more information please feel free to ask.

  • bleach burn... please help?

    I work with bleach at work. We use a 1:10 solution. 1 part bleach, 10 parts water. We are offered big yellow cleaning gloves, but they have been eaten away by the bleach and the manager won't buy more, so i don't wear the gloves because on me they seem to just hold the bleach water inside the glove the whole time i clean. I have acquired a bleach burn on the top of my hand and on my forearm from wrist to my elbow. It's red, and hot to the touch. It looks kinda like i have hives on my hand and arm, but there are no blisters. any ideas on how to make it hurt less, and help it heal faster. In a few days it will start to itch like mad. I've gotten hives from so many things i know what to do for that, but the burn i don't know what to do for. I can't use triple antibiotic ointment because I'm allergic to it. I swell up or break out in hives depending on the part of me it is put onto.

  • allergic reaction to plugs or Infection?

    Last week I got new plugs they were 00g and I was a 0g. The last time I had 00g was about a year ago and I used the same tapers to go back up to 00g. I'm not careless, i cleaned everything thoroughly just like i had any other time i was going up a size. I have to say my biggest problem is that although i can use tapers, i am allergic to the bands so i have to switch from the tapers relatively quickly before my ears get irritated. Any who, (this is the part where i went wrong) the flesh tunnels that i got along with the plugs were acrylic, and i had never worn acrylic before and i put those in right after i stretched the lobes. stupid me, i know. I hadn't realized that it was bad to do that because like i said, this is the first time i had ever used them. Any ways. Now my ears are swollen and there is pus coming out of them and my glands are swollen. It's been like that for a couple of days now. I changes the flesh tunnels back to my 0g flush tunnels because they are metal and i never had a problem with them before. I just don't know what else to do.

  • How do you prove to your apartment complex what breed your dog is?

    I was told that my dog was a German Shepherd Mix when i got him. Not because they tested him, but because that was their educated guess. I understand why they see the German Shepherd, it's because he has the mask on his face, but that doesn't prove what breed he is. But in the vet records i wrote down German Shepherd as his breed. My only problem is as he grows he's getting tall but not putting on the weight much. He's only 6 months old but he's always been thinner. And i guess my biggest problem is that my apartments don't allow German Shepherd type mixes. But in my honest opinion, having worked with dogs my whole life since my mother use to foster animals i know that when you rescue a dog they don't know what breed they are and their guess is as good as our own. I think my dog is a Plott hound mix... What do you think he is? Do you think it's possible he's a plott hound mix?

  • What can I do about my step brother?

    My step brother has a dog and just bought another from the same litter for his girlfriend. I know from past experiences that he isn't a good pet owner. And when I say isn't good, i mean abusive 150%. He was just at Our parents house yesterday and he was talking about his girlfriends dog. He said he threw it into the wall, and bunches it in the head as hard as he can as it's punishment for doing something bad. The girlfriend does have a problem with it, but she's also pregnant with my step brothers child. Let us not forget that his girlfriend already has a son. So here we have a bad situation getting worse. Back to the dog. The girlfriend said that last week the dog had been so abused that there was blood all over the kitchen from my step brother beating it. This isn't a big dog either it's a little dog. And my step brother also beat it like this once for it pooping on the couch from eating his cough drops. I mean the dog ate the whole bad of them and couldn't breath. I told my step brother that if he took the dog to the vets then they'd open a case on him, he said he wasn't taking it and he wouldn't ever be taking the dog. He said it was past it's shots and he didn't care he wouldn't take the dog to the vets. And he continued to say that if the dog had a broken limb then he would just snap it's neck. Now when he said that the only thing that came to my mind was.... He had done that before to another animal. It had been a cat, and a perfectly healthy one. But he had done it before. My step dad told him they would take the dog, but they said no. So my step dad told him if he hears about it happening again then he would call the police and have them look into it. My worry is that he'll continue to do it, but just won't tell his dad. We don't talk to the girlfriend enough to know if it's still happening, and my goodness you should see him when he talks about it. He gets so mad, like he's there all over again. He shakes, his face gets all red, the veins on his neck stick out. It's completely freaky. I don't want to go behind my step dad's back and tell the authorities. But i fear that this dog is going to end up dead. **** he's even gotten the dog high off of weed.
