My husband and I plan to get pregnant in about 9 months when I am 24 and he is 26. A friend gave us a bouncer seat and bassinet since her baby just grew out of it.

The baby items were sitting in our living room and my father dropped by unexpectedly and saw them. My husband told him that we weren’t hiding a pregnancy, but we had the stuff so we can prepare for a baby. My father didn’t seem upset.

This is why I am upset: I know my dad went home and told my mother. My mother has a HUGE problem with us having a baby, that’s why we weren’t telling her anything. She thinks I should wait until I am 30 and she seems to not want to be a grandmother in her late 40’s.

I didn’t want her to know because she will just say negative things and make me upset about planning a baby.

She did this with my engagement too!

Its done and over with but I am still depressed that my mother knows. I think I am going to avoid her for a while.

What do you think? What should I do?

He has a bowl of cereal, has a bath, and has a small bottle before bed time but is always awake around 2am every morning. Me and my wife let him cry maybe 10-15 minutes but the crying gets increasingly worse. We get up with him, rock him back to sleep but as soon as we lie him back down he wakes up crying again. He is teething now and we do give him some baby tylonol before bed. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get him to sleep through the night. Neither me nor my wife are getting much sleep and its really starting to wear on us.

I had my son on Fathers day. I started having sex 12 days after, i had no tearing. I have had sex everyday since then and since about a week ago i noticed when i would wipe there would be no blood but skin looking tissue kinda stuff. And now i just went to the restroom and felt something come out, i looked and it was like a ball of tissue or skin with no blood -- but inside there was dark brown stuff. What the hell is going on>????

Hi
I am 32 weeks pregnant and have been having this pain and discomfort in the pelvic area especially when I get up from sitting position and or sleeping position. It seems to fade away after I walk a bit? Could it be SPD? Is there anything that can help relieve it? I am just worried that I have to put up with this for 8 more weeks.. I didn't have this with my last one.. hope this won't make my labor and pushing harder. Anybody with similar symptoms.. what worked for u? Please reply

I am 6 days late for my period, i have had strong cramping for the past 6 days and started to bleed brownish dark red blood. Does this mean I'm pregnant or could this be my period being brownish from being inside me so long?

My best friend and his wife are trying for their first kid. His wife is cool, but she has a theory that only her hubby can touch the nipple. She feels it is a sexual thing and not for the baby. So she will not be breast feeding. Also she wont even be feeding the baby breast milk even via a bottle. Right away she will feed the baby manufactured milk. My bubby is cool with this. Am I the only one that finds this VERY disturbing? How can you purposely NOT give your kid the best foods to eat?!?!? My feeling is, is that when she becomes pregnant, her maternal instincts will kick in, and she will change her mind. But what happens if it doesn't? Is there anything I can do to convince them? Can anybody suggest information that we can read arguing the pros and cons of feeding the baby manufactured milk? Thank you very much with your answers.

when he wants me to play with him. My brain CANNOT play fantasy monster stuff. I want to go right to sleep! I give him the digital camera and let him make movies. Then he wants ME to play his game. I am incapable of the imagination it takes to even PRETEND to play. I will play Sorry or Aggravation or Checkers or cards all day long, but when it comes to this, I REALLY don't wanna. Plus, he makes me be the one HE wants me to be and never lets me win.

that he wasn't able to keep an erection bcuz he had too many concerns regarding being a new father on his mind, would u believe him? He says it's bcuz he grew up w/out a father, and now he's worried about what kind of father he will be. This xcuse concerns me only bcuz I'm wondering y this would b going through his head EVERY time we have sex!!! It doesn't make sense! Could it be a lie?
