I'm curious about whether it's safe for my husband to suck my nipples as much as he does. We've been doing this for years where he enjoys doing it for about 40 minutes every other night, followed by clitoral stimulation and then sex. I came across some information suggesting this might not be safe, and it's got me a bit worried. Can you shed some light on this?

Nipple sucking is generally safe as long as there are no infections, open sores, or excessive force that could cause discomfort or injury. If you experience any pain, irritation, or unusual symptoms, its best to consult a doctor for guidance. Otherwise, it's a normal part of intimacy for many couples.

I'm about a month pregnant and I'm really concerned about what shampoo I should be using. Currently, I have Moroccan oil shampoois that safe for me right now?

Dove shampoo and conditioner are safe too if you want to go for something milder.

I'm six months pregnant and I've noticed that at night, my baby seems to move to the left side of my stomach. I can actually feel something round, like the baby's head, and sometimes it feels like the baby is pushing, which can be a bit uncomfortable. Is it normal for the baby to settle on one side of the stomach like this? Would really appreciate your help!

it is normal
