Pregnancy & Parenting - 18 August 2006

i've been feeling really broody alot lately. and would love another baby. i have a ten month baby and admittedly if it weren't for my mother i would of had a break down. i found it so hard and needed my mothers help 24/7 since the baby father left me but now i feel very confident in raising my baby on my own now and feel i could cope with another one. just one more for my baby to have someone to play with and feel close to. im seriously thinking about getting pregnant again but not too sure whether i should or not. and by the looks of things it looks like i'll be doing it alone (the raising part). i need some helpful advice. that'll make me make the right choice.

Is it because no one will babysit them? It seems that in every store, restaurant (nice ones too) and even at the movies there is some horrible little brat screaming or crying. Why? If the parents can't control the kids, why take them along? Don't get me wrong, I know it can't be helped sometimes but these people don't even discipline their children - they just ignore them! Or keep threatening to take them home but the kids persist and nothing happens.

Surely they wouldn't be crying if they didn't have something to cry about in the first place?? It's almost as bad as the woman in McDonald's the other day who told her son to ''eat up that burger or you're not getting any chocolate cake for dessert!''

I'm only ten weeks pregnant, but I am trying to come up with some boy names. I was thinking about Ryland or Bry. The middle name will be Austin, we will not change that because that is the name of my boyfriends nephew that passed away.
Any names for a girl you all like?
If you have any suggestions for names boy or girl please share them with me. Thanks!

A few days ago i said some bad things to a girl then the girls mom called my mom and then i said sorry to the girl and she was like " its okay it will be fine " what should i do if more people find out and it gets around the school. I feel really bad that i did it . I was under pressure on my friend to do it. Should i just try to forget it?

There is a good chance that my wife is going to deliver our daughter premature (she is at 30 weeks now). Someone told her that premature babies need to stay away from other babies for a year because of some lung sickness they can catch. Is this true? At what age is it safe for them to start daycare?

I asked this question yesterday and thought I'd get some diffrent answers today....
I was just wondering why people have such an issue with girls 15+ having children? I have a lot of young mothers as friends and they don't live with their parents or live off the government. I also noticed that young pregnancies are a lot more common and accepted in the south-western states...any opinions on that? I was just very curious because really if it doesn’t affect you why do people care? Why do young mothers get looks as if they have done something incredibly wrong? Why are they taken pity on even if they did want the pregnancy? Why are they considered sluts? And last but not least...why are they automatically considered bad parents?
Thanks for your insight!

My question is do most doctors give you a choice between induction & c-section if you have gestational diabetes?

I have heard that c-section is actually safer d/t the complications that can happen with "au naturelle" (as natural as induction can get...NOT)

I'm now 37 1/2 weeks pregnant with G.D. and have yet to see the specialist (on Monday)...so I kind of would like to be prepared.

Also, can one DEMAND a c-section and get what they want? Or will most doctors do what they want to do?

I think I'm losing my mucous plug. However it's not a "bloody show" it is clear and very klumpy! Im not having any MAJOR cramps but i have had a few LITTLE ones. What does this mean? Could I be near labor?

I am worried about my water breaking while I am laying in my brand new bed. And also I wonder if it only happens after the baby has dropped. Thanks.
