Since they dont let you respond to your own questions, I thought I'd post another one.

Yes, I live in Vegas, but that's against my own will. I hate this place. I hate partying, drinking, clubs, bars. My boyfriend is the same way. His dad was an alcoholic and he despises him.

I have a job, it does offer maternity leave, as some of my coworkers have left on it. However I do NOT plan to stay at this job for very much longer. My boyfriend also works and is getting paid quite a bit. He works with computer/game design, and if you look at the statistics they get paid A LOT. He won't flop out either, he's VERY good at it, top of DeVry right now. And me being 18, I make a lot.

I don't do much outside work, so "taking up my time" won't do much lol. I have PLENTY of time for a baby. We don't live together YET, we are looking at apartments, and we think we might have found one. It's made for younger people, only $450 a month. And it's not some run-down POS either.

I find this so annoying. I don't know the answer myself, and I hate saying I don't know, or whatever. The response I usually get is, well you should have some, you would be a great mom. Well I appreciate the words, it is still akward and very annoying being asked this at least 8 times in an average week.
I am not sure that I want to actually carry a child. I love kids, and would love to have some one day, but the horror stories I have heard of pregnancies scares me off. I know this is not a decision that I/we have to make today, but I am not getting any younger.
So what I want to know is, first, how can I respond to people who constantly ask when we are going to be parents, or tell me that I would be a great mom, or basically when I am going to have kids?
Second, for those of you who have had a child, please tell me what the whole pregnancy experience was like.
Thanks

and now I sincerely regret it. my mom doesn't "allow" me to watch R rated movies and I watched (actually bought) the 'From Hell' dvd. I've watched like the first 10 minutes and I saw this sex scene and now I'm all freaking out 'cuz I know I wasn't supposed to watch it. I feel so guilty for defying my mom and now I feel dirty and I don't even want to finish watching the movie. Is there anything I can do to stop feeling this way or get my conscience to shutup. I'm 15, but I doubt that matters. Any advice or suggestions?

Just because I was born with a uterus and a set of ovaries, doesnt mean I should have kids! Why is society set on everyone having kids!? I pay enough taxes for welfare families who are having them. And teens. And illegal immigants. And drug users. There are enough kids being born without my help. Some people think its beautiful, I think its not worth it.

I'm currently 18 almost 19, and deeply in love with my boyfriend who's 21. I've been with him for 2 years, and see no end either. I know what love is, so don't tell me I'm too young. I find myself much more mature than most people older than me. Recently, I've been thinking about having a baby. I see people with infants, and I feel so jealous. I would love to take care and raise another life. I think a baby is such a precious thing, and raising it as my son/daughter would be a life changing event. My parents are pretty protective of me, especially my dad. He doesn't me want to have a child well into my 30's =P. But I can honestly say, that I personally think I can take care of something as special as another person.

I base most of my actions in the eyes of the public. If I'll get shunned for something I do, then of course I won't do it. I need your HONEST opinions.

my period was due next week.. but it came the day after having sex and it lasted only two days..... very unusual for me. I have been feeling some cramping..and have noticed that my mouth seems to be producing more saliva. I'm sure it is too early to be experiencing any signs of pregnancy..... but could I be pregnant??

i have been having real bad in my back, chest and stomach which lasts for about 20 minutes at a time and keeps coming back every 40 minutes or so.
i have also been vomiting and when this pain happens i can hardly breath. it's so bad.
do you think there might be a problem or maybe just a part of pregnancy? my stomach feels real hard at these times too.
any advice would be helpful im worried i am home alone and have no car to get to doctors..

My 4 year old is totally hyperactive.. besides medication ( anyone suggestion medication go elsewhere) what can I try to do to keep him calm some of the time? We believe he's ADHD, but undiagnosed.. which doesn't matter because we'd refuse to medicate.

I got him some multivitamins and told him to increase the amount of water that he drinks, but so far nothing has helped. What should he do?
