Pregnancy & Parenting - 6 September 2006

Please advise, her mom thinks it is funny i do not. Here are a few examples. When we go someplace, she will take things like car keys that are on a table, the other day we went to the beach and she picked up a mans bait bucket and i had to chase her to get it. We walked out of walmart the other night and she had a container of pop corn chicken under her arm. She always has to have things in her hands. Whenever we leave to go someplace she has to have something, doesn't matter what, even a crayon. I tell her she can have a toy in the car , but can not take it in the store, then she has a hissy when we get out of the car. She obsesses with things. She got new sandals with velcro and sat in a chair for 2 hours taking them on and off. And when you tell her to stop or try to direct her to something else she freaks. I finially had to put the shoes on the fridge , the noise was driving me crazy. She stomped down to the bedroom and screamed her head off. Help , this is not normal!

that is destroying her reputation. People are talking. What should I do? She's 24, depressed and suicidal.

Does it hurt if you are having sex and the guy finishes and you still want to keep going for an orgasm?

I don't leave until I see her step inside the bus. Other parents with children her age let their children go to the bus stop themselves.

I really would like to hear an example of someone less than perfect whom was able to carry a baby for a couple. I want to so much and I am nervous that my past will make me not chosen. I read so few women actually qualify, is this true??

I have had 3 positive pregancy tests. The doctor is not sure how far along yet because I have PCOS and have not had a period in two months. He couldn't find a sac or a heartbeat with a sono. Has anyone had a similar experience? Is it just too early to see right now.

When you women say your men can last for like 1/2 hour, does that mean actually penetration? Or does that include everything, foreplay and such? If I could get my husband to go that long, that would be great! Any ways to help him? We haven't had sex in a while, because we just went through a miscarriage and my hormones are all out of whack, and i'm not feeling romantic lately! But i know when we have sex more frequently he does much better! But still not 1/2 hour!
HELP!

2nd question is why do doc push epis? all of my docs pushed epis on me i told them i wasn't going to take any drugs they ALL almost passed out! and asked WHY??? with a confused look on their faces. Many people judge me for not taking drugs.
I am against drugs of all sorts while pregnant from time of conception through delivery. The drugs that the hospital gives you goes right too the baby through the uterine wall. these drugs are opioid.

This may sound sick, but please take note before i got married i had never had sex before, so i'm kinda naive!
How long can a guy usually last while having sex?!
My husband can usually go for like... 5 minutes?! (Does that sound right? I don't exactly time it?! lol) Is that normal? Or is there 'room' for improvement?

I had sex with a old freind who had her tubes tied 17 years ago and I am for some reason worried she could of gotten pregnant. She had her period a week after we had sex and I still talked her into taking a home preg test just to calm my nerves (she said I was nuts but did so I would leave her alone) it was negative. Am I just nuts like she says and have nothing to worry about?

Many American women refuse to breastfeed Why is this? There are no *cons for a healthy mum to Breastfeed.

The antibodies in breast milk help babies fight infection.
Colostrum is an ideal first food, higher in protein and minerals and lower in fats and carbohydrates than breast milk.
Breast milk helps safeguard against the development of allergies (and MANY other medical issues).
Breast milk is easily digested.
Breast milk changes to fit the changing needs of a growing baby. (Mother's milk for preemies is even different than mother's milk for a full-term baby.)
Breastfeeding helps develop a closeness between mom and baby.

Women experience an absence of menses.
shorter duration of uterine bleeding, helps the uterus return to its pre pregnancy state faster.
prevents breast cancer.
quicker weight loss.
bonding with the baby.
the positives greatly out weighed the negatives and i love my child enough to realize that.
* for the baby.
