Question by Martha E: my 13 month old son has have diarrhea on and off?
the Dr said it is a virus, he is off milk and on probiotics drinking plenty water pedylite and rice water. He is on the BRAT diet, but he is still hungry what else can I feed him. Also the diarrhea is not constanly he has it only once a day if he does is that a good sing. when other moms say baby has diarrhea does it mean they have it all day every day or periodically?

Question by Nikki: Maybe I’m wrong, maybe this is my month?
I thought I was pregnant 2 weeks ago, but started having period symptoms so I pretty much just figured my period was preparing to come. It’s still 7 days away, but the past few days and especially today I noticed my bowels slowling. I have irritable bowel syndrome and i’m on medication specifically for me to not have constipation, since i’ve suffered so badly in the past… Thats why I know i’m getting constipated. I had diareha a week ago, and thats what normally happens in the time frame.. but it normally gets worse and doesn’t go away until after my period is over.. So very odd it didn’t stay for more then that one day. My areolas are larger and light brown vrs my normal light pink. Sometimes its hard to tell. Last week I also noticed blue veins going threw my left areola.. then 3-4 days ago I started getting purple ones in my right and a little blue. I’ve been having small headaches through the day for the past 2 days. I’m not taking anything for it, it’s nor terrible just bad enough to annoy me. Maybe i’m pregnant, Maybe it’s just pms? Has anybody else experienced this? If you have, what was the outcome? I’ve taken pregnancy tests but it’s just way to early to test. I have 42-46 day cycles so thats why its so much more of a wait for me. I thought I had some implantation bleeding 11th, 12th, and saw some after sex on the 13th. Very little on tp. Been having some weird feelings in my lower belly, kinda like cramps but not at all painful. Just noticeable…Any thoughts? Please don’t be rude.
I forgot to mention ive been having a really hard time getting to sleep and falling asleep. i’ve noticed it for the past 2 weeks. I go to bed around 2-3am, and when hubby wakes me up to kiss me goodbye at 6:15 I can’t go back to sleep. Even though i’m exhausted, extremely tired..
Oh and since the 14th Ive been a bit queasy, but it was off and on.. Then yesterday it was with me all day. Not enough to make me puke, its just like my stomache is flopping around. =( Off and on so far today. It hurts to have Hubbys weight on me during sex without feeling a pressure feeling..nor can I lay flat on my stomache. It just doesn’t feel good, a lot of pressure.. Not really pain though. Ive had a little bit of clear/white creamish in texture, but thin not thick. no odor, I don’t have a yeast infectiong. Starting to feel like peeing is becoming more frequent.. Sometimes I lose my appetite all together, or only want chocolate/sweet things.. I’m usually a very healthy eater, though I do have a sweet tooth!

My best advice would be to take an HPT every morning with FMU and then play the waiting game until an HPT turns up positive or AF shows up.

If this cycle doesn’t work out….try temping. This is my first month and wow…it was spot-on with pinpointing ovulation.

Best of luck to you!
