What are some (if any) health problems that might occur down the line for a female dog who gave birth at a very young age? Our local rescue group has a cute spaniel/Corgi mix who is 1-2 years old and who has bonded with another dog she was rescued with who appears to be her offspring. I would...

My 10-year-old daughter has started being self-conscious about her weight and about her self-perceived "belly", i.e. a small pooch around the middle. She confided in me last night that she is worried she is fat because some of her friends weigh less than she does, and a couple of them don't have...

My kids, ages 7 and 10, are big fans of The Phantom of the Opera music, but they've never seen the stage production. I was reading about the 2004 movie version of the musical directed by Joel Schumaker and starring Gerard Butler, and it got great reviews. I was thinking about renting the movie...

We adopted a shelter dog about 6 weeks ago--an adorable cocker or King Charles spaniel mix--and our family of 5 is crazy about him! He is a great family dog (our first pet), and he is patient and playful with the kids. He also loves all people and is very friendly. However, the first week we...

Does anyone have a tried-and-true recommendation for dry lips? I don't have luck with Chapstick or any lip balms that I've tried. I have even tried to exfoliate my lips (read about it in a magazine) with a wet washcloth, but I still have dry, tight lips. If you have had good results with a...

I'm confused about the estrogen patch. My ob/gyn gave me some samples of Vivelle-Dot patches, which deliver 0.075 mg/day. He gave me these because I mentioned that I have experienced minor problems in between my monthly cycles. Those problems include moodiness, fatigue, extreme urges to eat...

Odd question, I know--but where is a good place to find a Little Orphan Annie doll, hopefully new? I've looked on Ebay, but most of those look weathered and worn. My second grade daughter is in the play Annie, Jr. this week, and I wanted to surprise her at the last performance on Saturday...

Hi, all you educated exercisers! I recently received a gift certificate to Collage Video for $130, and I would love your input on what to choose. I already own all of the Cathe workouts that Collage offers, so I am trying to find other instructors' workouts that I would enjoy as much as...

Have any of you ever had your spider veins removed by laser?I'm having mine on my legs done in the morning and wanted to see if anyone had any helpful hints. If you have had this done, did you wear your support pantyhose for six weeks (as recommended by my doctor)? Did you have to stay off your...

I'm in charge of a family breakfast at my kids' school next week, and the school's coffee makers have died. I've been researching large coffee makers on line, and I have read some not-so-great reviews of many of them. I know the people on these forums are always a great source of info, so...
