I already have the “What to expect when you are expecting” series, what else was useful for you?

What books on parenting have been worth buying for you?

What about pregnancy books? Which ones could you not live without?

ac asked:


My breasts have been sore since I ovulated 2 weeks ago, and the pain has increased as the weeks have gone on, and for the past week, it has been horrible! I usually have soreness before my period, but this is bad and it’s only gotten worse. Does pregnancy soreness and period soreness feel different, or what is so different about it?

Equine Canine Rodent Lover asked:


When her hips separate, how many weeks/days are left of her pregnancy? We got a pregnant piggie from a store and I can’t find much about it online. She’s about five months old.

I’m not talking about when the bones are as wide as they’ll get. How far into the pregnancy will they just begin to separate?

Luna asked:


I have heard that people have been giving births at 7th and 6th months of pregnancy, what are the side effects?

justine g asked:


I had unprotected sex and took the morning after pill the next day, and a week later have my period. I have read that the morning after pill can induce either a late or early period so I hope this is why. But also I know you can be pregnant and still get a period. Do you think I need to take a pregnancy test or I am being overly paranoid?
Please answer!! Thanks

Becca asked:


I have polly systic overies, and i have been showing signs of pregnancy, but cant take the OTC prego test, because of my systs, it dosent detect the pregnancy hormone. Will the blood test work or no, and if not then how can i tell if i am truely pregnant? This is causing great stress in my relationship to my boy friend and my self, because we dont know what to do first. Since Money is an issue, ccan you guys help to find out if there are possibiltys of a free blood test some where? At a possible hospitle here in Burlington, Iowa, or what i need to do to look into that. Thanks.

SmArTaNgEl asked:


I gave birth about 3 months ago ( 12 weeks) and I think I might be pregnant again. Is it possible? I am not breast feeding anymore.The home pregnancy test came out positive and my question is could it be just the residual hormones from last pregnancy?

Jessie asked:


I took an at home pregnancy test last week and tested positive, but then had my period a few days later. I would have conceived between September 20th and 24th, and my period came 6 days ago. I started reading up on this and found a lot of questions about chemical pregnancies. How do they happen? And how long will the pregnancy hormone stay in my system if the egg has already been flushed out? I can’t get into my gyno until next week and I need to know what’s going on now.
