Could my birth controll be causing mood swings?
The group health insurance with my company just switched from one insurance provider to another on 04/01/2007. We have not yet received our ID cards and are not in the insurance provider's system due to some sort of error over the Easter holiday.
I was supposed to have filled my birth controll prescription for this month on Sunday but was not able to. I tried again yesterday evening and was still not able to fill my prescription due to this error on behalf of the insurance provider. Ever since the weekend I have been very emotional and even having mood swings. I've noticed I've been a bit queezy and overreact to things that normally wouldn't upset me so badly. It's only been a matter of a couple days, could the birth controll (or lack thereof) be causing this emotional behavior?
Could my birth controll be causing mood swings?
Definitely, birth control is a hormonal pill and if you have been on them for a while you body will go through withdrawl and cause you to be more emotional than before.
Reply:yes, i came off of my birth control because the hormones were to much for me (i was taking yaz, which is the lowest hormone you can get basicly) my moods were awful and i felt like crying if someone said anything to me...when i was on gereric birth control, it made me have panic attacks...good luck, i would tell your doc (call the nurse) about your symptoms...
Reply:Yes, apart from being female, the hormones that HAD been regulated by the pill are no longer being regulated so you're a raging hormonal wildebeest.

What would I purchase?
I just had a baby girl 3 months ago %26amp; I want to purchase something to keep my daughter's keepsakes in such as papers from the hospital, her wrist bracelet, cards that me %26amp; my husband get her for Easter, Christmas, Birthdays, ect...all of her special stuff. But I can't find anything big enough,,,but I don't want anything too big either like a huge chest. But I do want something pretty and special. Can you please give me some idea's what would be good to get? Thanks.
What would I purchase?
A scrapbook would be great for the cards, stories and notes. Maybe a local craft store would have little unfinished chests you could decorate and use for the things that couldn't go into a scrapbook?
Reply:You can get a scrapbook or photo box and keep her stuff in there or get a trunk and decorate it yourself and keep it in your room, not somewhere where it could get dusty. You can also check online and look at storage boxes that have sass inside and outside. I hope you find something that suits your needs!!!
Reply:this is not a very fair question because you have so many to chose from. try finding a scraper booker in your area or a store that supplies these things because what you are looking for is good quality archivial papers pens and boxes because you want to keep these things for a long time. i would suggest a shadow box or you could line a plain cheap wooden box with cedar i would take pictures of what ever it is that you are saving and put them on the outside of this box, if it is wooden, you could decoupage it.
Reply:Congratulations! My mom just used a basic Rubbermaid tub for me and each of my sisters and it has lasted really well. She will appreciate it someday. :)
Reply:aww congrats.!!! you can get a baby book, photo books, a drawer,

My adult son has a girlfriend, who has two small children, we get along just fine. Is it OK?
if I send the children, a St. Patrick's Day card with a few bucks in it? The same for Easter etc.
My adult son has a girlfriend, who has two small children, we get along just fine. Is it OK?
That would be really sweet from your part.
Reply:Deffinatly ok.
but personally, i'd like to get st patty's day stickers or a pin or soemthing like that with my card... if i was a kid, but it depends on how old they are.
Money is fine, i have two children and i'm a single mom, so if I had a boyfriend who's mother wanted to send my kids card with money or a small gift it wouldnt bother me at all.. It would make me feel welcome and accepted to the family.
if i were you i'd just touch the topic with your son because everyone is different you wouldnt want to offend her... but i dont think you would at all!
Happy St Patrick's Day
Reply:Sounds OK to me, I'll even take one gracefully!
Reply:If you like the girlfriend and her children's that would be nice to send them cards for the holiday.
Reply:I think it would be fine. I have a 2 year old son and am now dating this guy that is in the army. His mother sent my son and myself "care packages" and it was so cool. I was really thinkfull for it. It meant so much to me when I opened it and see what it was and who it was from. So I think that it would be fine for you to send a card to them. I think that it would mean a lot to the girlfriend and the kids. :)
Reply:Sure, why wouldn't it be?
Reply:It is very OK :) until it isn't :)
just kidding... anyway if they are happy enjoying they relationship, which is most important, you dont have to bother, you just have to mind your own business... other way if it goes wrong guess who'll be the "bad guy"... of course- YOU.
You can give some advice to your son, if he ask for it, but nothing more... I guess he's an adult person, who can decide for himself, he's not your little boy anymore :) cause I know how I feel when my mom is "obsessed" with me :)
So my conclusion is: When he's happy, you should be happy too and you should support his decisions... and when he feels bad you should be by his side to help him feel better :)
well I guess you know all that :) but the problem is that the Mothers sometimes act following they heart, when they need they brain.
I wish you all the happiness in the world...

p.s. sorry I read only the topic, i hope u dont mind to hear my opinion about that issue :)
anyway i think that some other gift would be received better, cause some people may not understood your real reason for it :) it may offend them... it depends on the person of course
BTW, I meant abouth the bucks... the card would be great :)
Reply:yeah it's perfecly fine but not trying to be mean but don't put to much because they will want more ad more but it's fine just don't spoil them too much. GOD BLESSS U
Reply:I think that is a really sweet thoughtful thing to do! But instead of Money, I would send a little something marking the holiday. Small children like PRESENTS!! (They like money too, but some people are funny about money and might take it the wrong way.)
Reply:yeah very sweet of u
Reply:Send a card and a nice present. No money.
Reply:I would but thats comin from a kid i never got stuff like that when i was growin up and it would of made me feel a whole lot more special even if it dont have no money in it
Reply:Yeah thats ok, but you don't want to give the kids the impression that you'll always buy them stuff. How long has your sone been dating her? If its been awhile and you've actually spent time with them, then its ok.
Reply:Absolutely. Not only would the kids love it, it would be a great gesture to show your acceptance of and care for the children. even though they are not your biological grandchildren. That's a very kind gesture.
Reply:Of course it is. It's a nice gesture. The kids will love it and it will let the girlfriend know that you accept not only her but her children also.
Reply:i would think so. if your not sure ask your boy what he thinks instead of a bunch of strangers.
Reply:I think it is a wonderful, sweet thing to do. Kids love getting mail, especially mail with cards and money inside. You will become as popular as Santa Clause the next time you see them.
Reply:I guess it depends on how good their relationship is. And it depends on how the mom is. Over-analyzing: I think it'd be kinda awkward if you did that and they broke up. It might put the mom in a weird position about letting her children accept money from someone not really in the family... and might make her think about her financial situation. -OR- It might be perfectly fine, and there's nothing at all to worry about. If it's just, like, $5 each kid... you're pretty close to them... they come over for family events... then it sounds okay to me.
Reply:Yes Ithink it would be a good thing for you to forge that relationship with them if your daughter has a serious relationship with him...

Should I let him into my son's life?
My son's biological father has never seen him. My son is now 20 months old. Today, we received a package from his father for Easter. Inside the card it said "Hope to see you very soon. I love you, Daddy." Should I let his father be in my son's life? There are a lot of issues between the two of us, which is why we are not together. Maybe someone who has been, or is in, a similar situation could give me some advice. I definitely need it.
Should I let him into my son's life?
Yes, if he is wanting to be a father to his son let him. Your son deserves that. Also let the father know with fatherhood comes responsibility. He will have to pay child support if he is not already. Get things done through court. First thing is paternity rights. If you have not already done this the baby is as much his as yours. These are very important things you need to check on but yes let him be a father. Good Luck
Reply:Actually, if he's the biological father, he has a right to see the boy ... whether you like it or not. If you deny him this right, he could take you to court. It's best to try to work it out amicably because he is going to be in your life and your son's life for a loooooong time. If you feel your son's safety would be in jeopardy when he's around his father, then you should consult an attorney and see if you can make it where he only has supervised visitation.
Reply:If he is the biological father, he does have the right to see the child. And hey maybe seeing his child is just what he needs. You are only making it worse by waiting later to let the boy know who his father is.
Since it's been x amount of time, he may have cooled down since then. Assuming that it has been almost 2 years since you have seen him.
Reply:The father should be in the babys life. Is he paying child support? He can take you to court and get them to make sure he see him. But all from that when your child grows up he will want to see his father. AND MOST LIKELY HATE YOU FOR KEEPING HIM AWAY FROM HIM. There must of been love there when you two made the baby so why can't you get along so he can be really happy. What's it going to do besides seeing the man you hate so much. I went thru this with my kids and I just invited my x wife to be with us on all the holladays. and now that the kids are all grown My wife and my x are the best of friends but it took a lot of work on my part.
Reply:Ya. It's his FATHER.
Reply:what happen between you and your ex has nothing do with your son. your son has the right to have a relationship with his father.
Reply:Yeah, you can try and resolve tensions.
Reply:im in a similar situation. my child's father wants to be a part of her life after 4yrs. he has a pretty crappy excuse for not bein around. his mother still sees her so she tells my little girl all about him. so my lil one knows he exist. so im thinking of letting him see her and see how things work out. i know theres alot of what ifs but you never know till you try. well its not the greatest answer but just letting you know your not alone.
Reply:I think you should its the better for him and he needs a daddy after all he is a boy
Reply:Did you agree on something? like how often he can see him? did you go to court on who will take care of him?or he just don't see him because he has some problems with law or something???Is there anything that he can't see him?
If you two are not together and have issues, you should figure it out. His dad should be in his life. Just be carefull, if you're worried, that he doesn't take him away from you, that's why I'm asking if you went to the court for parenting.
Update with some more info...
But his dad should be in his life.
Reply:HE has every right to come see your son whatever the problem is between u guys...don't forget once in a blue moon u two were together and fell in love with each and made this precious child....Just try to make the best of it and you never know, i have seen where children actually make their parents turn out for the better!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you never can know what can happen next between yall!
Reply:I normally would say yes. However, based on the details you provided, I'm going to say no. If he has no interest in supporting his child for 20 months, he doesn't deserve the title of Daddy. I would petition to have his rights terminated. As sad as it is, I think it's better for a child to have no father at all than one who's no good.
Reply:When I was a year old my father left us. He didn't try hard to get in my life and it hurt me. I first met him at 18 years old and still, at 40 today have issues with it. I have learned that my mother has played a part in keeping him away. That hurt me too.
It sounds as if the daddy has done some soul searching and is ready to step up to his responsibility. Please let him be there for his son! Promote it! and make sure that you don't argue in front of the child. It will be difficult at first, but if he is the daddy to your child that he is supposed to be , then you will all be better off.
Reply:i would get a lawyer sounds like he is up to something
Reply:not if he is a violent or dangerous person----------ever
if he has been involved in drugs---------not without a clean slate or at least have it supervised.
other than that you need to try to work out a non- angerbased parent to parent relationship.
he needs to be supporting the child on a regular basis as well as sending extra things. but you need to not be emotionally entwined with him.

What more can be done about people illegally parking in handicap spaces, or the white lines beside them?
i was at the store, Easter Sunday, and someone was parked in the white line area next to a handicap space. so, if someone had a wheelchair lift, they would have major problems. and, that did happen...a man with a son that is in a wheelchair had to park further away! but, if this person had parked there and someone was shopping while she did so...they would have been stuck till she left! so, a man took a picture of her car tag. and, she happened to come out of the store, with her young daughter with her now, she laughed at him and told him he was jealous because she had a Lexus and he didn't. he asked her in return if she did anything illegal to get this Lexus since she didn't mind breaking the law!?! it was stupid, and what's worse is he had called the police, she took her time getting into her car. running her mouth off and the police never came...to top it off a mom with 3 kids no handicap tag or temp. card parked in the handicap right after this woman left!!!!
so, what can be done?
What more can be done about people illegally parking in handicap spaces, or the white lines beside them?
First of all those handicapped parking places are put there by the store. they are on private property and police officers cant write a ticket on them. they are there for handicapped persons to park. but we do have people in this country that have NO manners. they only think of themselves, or they swipe the card out of grandmas car. what a shame that the people of this country have become so self-serving. I think the law ought to be changed that if you park in one of those spots and run to the store the anyone sees you they can bust out all your windows!
Reply:First of all, people need to start caring enough to report it. Secondly, police officers need to start caring enough to do something about it. I have seen things like this reported and nothing ever comes of it. What would be great is if they towed the vehicles away at the owners expense.
Reply:In my country they are putting heavy fines on these people but I have yet to hear of one case where it has been done I think it will get to the parking space rage yet .
Reply:In store parking lots enforcement is up to the store, which doesn't like to harass cutomers. Plus so many people swipe, borrow or get their doctor to supply them with the handicapped tag for the mirror it's ridiculous.
Reply:I suggest that we give each handicaped space plumbing, that way, when you see someone parking in a space they shouldn't be in, you can just flush them with the rest of the sewage.
Reply:your abseluty correct; the only people that harms are the people that really have problems and need to park there. It has become a way of life for them. the only thing to do is key their car, or nick it and teach their asses a lesson
Reply:It makes me want to flatten their tires. I used to care for a little girl in a wheel chair and this would happen frequently.Very difficulty to maneuver a wheelchair in a small regular place. Ppl who aren't handicapped and park there should have their licenses suspended. If the guy got a pic of the tag and the wheels over the line, he could probably turn it in to police and she might get ticketed. On the other hand, temp hang tags often stolen, who is to say the mom of 3 didn't have an invisible disability like MS or epilepsy?? She probably doesn't, but how can one tell? One day I witnessed a very prominent real estate agent in our city come running out of the store on a very cold rainy windy day with a small bag in hand and jump into his SUV that he had conveniently parked in a handicapped space as I was putting my bags into my van. I had witnessed a geriatric couple do a few laps (they had a HC tag) before finally parking further down and come hobbling with their canes through the parking lot. I "know" the agent isn't disabled and I thought what a moron he was. 1) parking in HC space when not HCd and 2) he is so egotistical that he has his name and logo plastered all over the doors and rear end of his SUV!! He nearly ran the old couple over when backing out of the spot, I guess he was in a hurry and justified doing it as he was just going to run a small errand that wouldn't take long. It's funny how ppl will "bend" the rules when it will benefit them to do so no matter how much it will hurt someone else.
Reply:Well, I think not much. I must admit I've parked in handicap before but, only when I know I'll be fast. I'm not a mean person though, trust me !!!!!

so, what can be done?
What more can be done about people illegally parking in handicap spaces, or the white lines beside them?
First of all those handicapped parking places are put there by the store. they are on private property and police officers cant write a ticket on them. they are there for handicapped persons to park. but we do have people in this country that have NO manners. they only think of themselves, or they swipe the card out of grandmas car. what a shame that the people of this country have become so self-serving. I think the law ought to be changed that if you park in one of those spots and run to the store the anyone sees you they can bust out all your windows!
Reply:First of all, people need to start caring enough to report it. Secondly, police officers need to start caring enough to do something about it. I have seen things like this reported and nothing ever comes of it. What would be great is if they towed the vehicles away at the owners expense.
Reply:In my country they are putting heavy fines on these people but I have yet to hear of one case where it has been done I think it will get to the parking space rage yet .
Reply:In store parking lots enforcement is up to the store, which doesn't like to harass cutomers. Plus so many people swipe, borrow or get their doctor to supply them with the handicapped tag for the mirror it's ridiculous.
Reply:I suggest that we give each handicaped space plumbing, that way, when you see someone parking in a space they shouldn't be in, you can just flush them with the rest of the sewage.
Reply:your abseluty correct; the only people that harms are the people that really have problems and need to park there. It has become a way of life for them. the only thing to do is key their car, or nick it and teach their asses a lesson
Reply:It makes me want to flatten their tires. I used to care for a little girl in a wheel chair and this would happen frequently.Very difficulty to maneuver a wheelchair in a small regular place. Ppl who aren't handicapped and park there should have their licenses suspended. If the guy got a pic of the tag and the wheels over the line, he could probably turn it in to police and she might get ticketed. On the other hand, temp hang tags often stolen, who is to say the mom of 3 didn't have an invisible disability like MS or epilepsy?? She probably doesn't, but how can one tell? One day I witnessed a very prominent real estate agent in our city come running out of the store on a very cold rainy windy day with a small bag in hand and jump into his SUV that he had conveniently parked in a handicapped space as I was putting my bags into my van. I had witnessed a geriatric couple do a few laps (they had a HC tag) before finally parking further down and come hobbling with their canes through the parking lot. I "know" the agent isn't disabled and I thought what a moron he was. 1) parking in HC space when not HCd and 2) he is so egotistical that he has his name and logo plastered all over the doors and rear end of his SUV!! He nearly ran the old couple over when backing out of the spot, I guess he was in a hurry and justified doing it as he was just going to run a small errand that wouldn't take long. It's funny how ppl will "bend" the rules when it will benefit them to do so no matter how much it will hurt someone else.

How do I get rid of this guilt???
I told my grandmother that I'd go spend the night at her house and play cards some time and she was very excited about it. That was at Easter. The only time I've been able to get my sorry butt there have been holidays, and I missed a couple of those too. I love my grandmother alot, even though I couldn't seem to get myself there alot. Now she is in the hospital fighting for her last breaths...the doctors said it is just a matter of time. She is so doped up, that she doesn't know what's going on can barely breathe. I wanted to go to the hospital to tell her that I loved her and that I'm so sorry but my mother says she doesn't look good and I probably shouldn't go. I expressed my feelings to her, but she said holding the guilt will do me no good, and to let it go. But I can't! I feel so bad, and guilty, and now she's dying and I will never have the chance! What can I do?
How do I get rid of this guilt???
This is a very personal decision that you have to make. My grandmother passed when I was 12. She lived with us and had really bad emphysema. She got really bad off and was put in the hospital. I visited her once and she seemed like her normal self. A day or two later she took a turn for the worse. My mother wouldn't let me or my 14 year old sister go visit her because she wanted us to remember her full of life and not hooked up to machines and incoherent. It's been 20 years since and I'm still really torn and bitter about her decision to do that. One one hand I wanted to say good bye but then I wonder if I would have wanted to see her in that state. So remember your grandmother loves you and whatever you decide to do she would support it. She wouldn't want you to feel guilty.
Reply:Dying alone is the Pitts! Go and be there during her transition. Guilt is an excuse for non action!
Reply:Don't feel guilty about that. I'm sure she understands you cause you are young and probably you have other priorities sometimes.
Reply:Go and see her, you dont want to later think WHAT IF she could hear me?! youll regret it once shes gone. Suck up how you feel about seeing her while shes not looking good and go do this for her, think of her. God bless!
Reply:Go, now
Reply:Just get there. You can't really change the past. Just go there and see her.
Reply:Your Mom is just trying to protect you from seeing your Gran in a bad way. For your sake and peace of mind you need to go and make things right in your head with your Gran. Even though your Gran does not hate you or feel bad about you not getting over to see her more. As you grow older you remember what is is like to be young and you realize young people are very active and involved in their own lives and do not mean to be distant but this is the way life is. Your gran new this and cherished the times she did see you. But you still need to go make your peace, if you don't you will feel like this for the rest of your life.
Reply:Guilt usually stops action. Now that you know, let her last moments be of how grandson AT her side. So go or else you will spend the rest of your life feeling guilty that you let guilt stop you from spending time with her.
Reply:You've got to go and tell her, or you will never get over the guilt. You will carry it around forever. Go, and just let everything come out when you get there. Good luck.
Reply:Don't blame yourself. You could there you could get there. Your grandmother understand. I promise. Just let her go.
Reply:Oh, honey; look, your grandma would *not* want you to to dwell now would she? Well, feeling guilty never pushed anyone to the top of the world. For the good of society and the family move onwards and upwards. Never look back; only look forward to the good that you can do for society. And give yourself a nice wage as you're going along- it's proper.
Reply:Go to the hospital and tell your grandmother how you feel. She will know no matter how doped up she . This is the one time I would ignore my mom. This is between you and your grandmother and at this point you both need it.
Reply:she could hear you reguardless of the medication. i lost both my parents both were on life support , believe me they can hear you if you talk to them.
Reply:Go and visit her, whisper to her ear how much you love her, do it now while you still have that chance, I never get that chance with my Dad
Reply:Go. It's now or never.
Reply:Go to the hospital. It's now or never. If you choose to speak to your grandmother don't talk about all the things you are sorry about. Talk about memories you do have.

Alone I came into this world, as God Held onto my heart, and my head to make my entry safe....I do not know...
Where to start...
My mother now is growing older,
My Dad has long ago passed,
This isn't the first poem that I've written,
And It certainly won't be the last....
Can you see past the fog on the path ahead?
As you go to visit that grave?
At night so no one will see your tears,
To sorrow you've become a slave.....
I know God is the one who controls,
The day He takes us home...
But as Iook back on the lives I've watched,
It's a weight on my dome!
How do you know the time to move on,
And stop digging dirt that won't yeild a crop,
When is it time to just remember the good things,
By that I mean when should I stop..
Allowing myself to be manipulated,
By siblings who Love to stir the stew,
Whose main ingredient is my happiness,
They'd rather see me sad and blue!
Not that I have malice or hatred for them,
But I won't be sending them any cards....
On Christmas, Easter, or birthdays,
My heart is growing cold and hard!
Sounds silly HUH? Just answer honestly...
Alone I came into this world, as God Held onto my heart, and my head to make my entry safe....I do not know...
I'm thinking it's time to move on when God shows you the way and opens the doors but remember your not alone,you were born into your mothers arms and someone loves you now and no matter where you end up,God will still be there.Sow your soil where ever you choose,with God watching your back,you can't lose.
Reply:I'm not into the "God" thing so I can't really grasp the entire concept behind your poem. Good rhyming though...I am sure it would earn you a good grade in English.
Reply:I think it's a great poem, and really deep.
I particularly like rhyming poems, which your's is.
Think about forgiving those who have hurt you, instead of becoming bitter and cold.
Reply:No this does not sound silly what your saying is coming from your heart. Most poems come from the heart and how you feel I also write poems some are happy poems, some are poems about my son. Keep up your good work get a binder buy you the page covers and keep them. You can always look back and read them thru the years. Have you thought about getting in touch with a publisher see what they think only takes one to get them interested.

Gift basket's ideas?
Sounds like you have the little girl covered - in ideas.
For the boy, how about those new water guns, a remote control car, model cars, if you go with the model car, don't forget the glue and paint (he will need adult supervision to help him put it together), basketball, video games or a dvd, maybe make him up a mini tool belt to help teach him how to properly use tools.
Reply:You might try getting him his favorite teams stuff.
This website has some interesting stuff.
Goodluck!

Gift giving in front of others...?
This has been an ongoing situation at my inlaws. Two sisters buy for each other, their kids, and another family members kids. One passes out Easter gifts to all the kids and another passes out gift cards to Dairy Queen. My girls sit quietly in the midst of the uncomfortable event. Shouldn't they pass out their gifts in private if they choose to do so? I understand these sisters are close, but I would never allow my nieces and nephews to feel like I like certain ones better. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks!
Gift giving in front of others...?
You are absolutely correct. It's very rude to exchange gifts in front of children that are not included in the gift giving. Someone needs to explain to the sisters that this is very hurtful for the girls that are not included. It may not change things, but at least you will know where they stand as far as their feelings toward your children (and any others that may be present). Turn this into an opportunity to teach your girls something about manners, if you haven't already done so.
Reply:There will be repercussions. Your girls will not be close to them.
Reply:I would discuss this with the sisters. Your right, it isn't right and can make the girls feel like they aren't loved as much as the others. If the sisters don't understand you, you can be sure to be a few minutes late (usually around the time presents are swapped) so your girls won't have to see it next time at a family gathering.

Trying to find a template for ms works?
My husband's grandmother is trying to create a program (you know one like you find at a funeral or in a church on easter sunday or something).. not a flyer, or a card, but a program.
she has msworks. I am five hours away and can't sit down and tinker with her computer until I get it right. So, if someone could please point me towards a template for a program for ms works (not sure which volume she has.) it would be greatly appreciated.

In the Correspondence group of Task Wizards is a Brochure that can be made with two or three panels. The two-panel one is arranged like a folded landscape letter page, which is the usual program I see.
