Question 2

my bf took a little bit of his presum or dry i dont really know and rubbed it around me what does that mean? p?

Accepted Answer

: If I understand your question, your partner rubbed precum around your vagina. Bear in mind that precum can contain viable sperm &amp; if this occurs while you've ovulated and sperm enters your vagina, conception is a possibility although low likelihood with this scenario. If you miss your next period, wait 4 days and carefully perform a pregnancy test.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Why ?: Reflux is a natural event enabled by an immature digestive system,frequent feeds &amp; spending most of their time flat (not upright like adults). It tends to increase to a peak frequency at 3-4 mo as they become more active &amp; disappear by a year (they spend more time upright). If it is silent you ignore it. If it triggers problems/pain/etc. there are management tools that can help.

Question 9

is vicks baby rub safe for 3 month old who weighs 13 lbs 10 oz?

Accepted Answer

I never recommend it: Any pungent odor or fume, whether rubbed on or placed in a vaporizer can cause increasing congestion in an infant. I equate Vicks to cigarette smoke in young infants.It has little if any value at any age and never before age 3-6yrs. This is a throwback to the sweat lodges of the indians and should be abandoned along with leaches.
