Pregnancy & Parenting - 8 September 2006

Do any of you only have one child and that's all you plan to have? Do you regret your choice now and wish you had more children? I am curious because I have a 3 month old son and I really don't wish to have anymore. I love my son and adore being a mommy, I just feel like one child is best for me. Is that being selfish?

Why do they tell them things that are untrue and hurtful?

E.G. They tell them that there is a tooth fairy or there is Santa Claus or that the Easter bunny lays eggs



I'm glad today that my parents never told such lies like that. It saved myself from being naive.

He will go to bed in his own bed, in his own room, but usually by 1:00am he is in bed with us. We just found out we're expecting. So how can I get him to sleep in his own bed all night?

Can this be harmful to the baby?

We feel that we need to let her know. She is eleven years old and has been asking many question to her grandparents. Like where was her daddy when she was younger. Hes not in baby photos and bday photos. So we know we need to talk with her about it. We just don't know how. My husband adopted her when she was five. He has been in her live since she was two and half. She has never known anyone else to be her father. If anyone has any advice on this please leave a serious answer.

i do i have seen everything on here and not on purpose, even with instint messager i have seen porn and have been talked to in the wrong manner without me initiating it. i think computers should be used at school by kids, and only when they need to type or research homework in the supervision of a parent. my son's are 2.5yrs. old and 7mths old and when they get older there is no sitting on here i dont want them to learn the wrong things, instead i will be paying for them to join clubs and sports of their choice. Do you agree?

My 23 month old seems to prefer his left hand already... but I thought hand preference was not determined until much later in life.

Some names that I decided for a girl was Akayzeyah Nikole, AudreyAnna Rashay, and for boys I could only come up with one name and that is Xchyler Levi (Skyler). I need help, I will find a really cute first name but can not find a middle name that clicks with the first name.

I have a 5 month old that just started family daycare 2 weeks ago. When he is there, he refuses to sleep unless the woman holds him, and as soon as she puts him on his back he wakes up and cries. He sleeps for no more than 30 minutes in the 7 hours he is there. We pick him up at 3, and he'll nap a good hour and a half in the afternoon, but he still is tired all the time. Also, he eats food like a pig for her - cereal, veggies, soups, fruit, etc., but he won't take a bottle from her. He just plays with it. She makes the cereal with the formula, and combining that and what he gets from the bottle as he plays with is, he takes about 4 oz all day! He is breastfeeding the rest of the day so it is hard to know how much he gets from me. I am so worried about his heath I am sick. We have a doc appt very soon, but I just wanted to get some feedback now. Any comments or ideas???

When does implantation occur? Is always around the time your period is due or can it happen at any other time? I ask because im on the pill and hadnt planned to get pregnant but think i could be. However i had sex when i was on my first pack of pills but have taken 2 further packs since and my period should be due today/tomorrow so surely if i am pregnant implantation cant happen now cuz it was 9 weeks ago that i had sex.

Today my nearly 2 year old daughter has been taking her nappy off all the time. I have noticed small wet patches on my carpet and wondered what they were and where they were coming from, i checked her nappy and it was hanging of, then later i went to change her nappy and it was off and down one side of her leg, she has been taking them off. Do you think its a sign of wanting to be potty or toilet trained? I have tried potty training her not long ago, she used the potty once but had no luck after that.

My wife and I bought a tricycle for my son for his birthday this weekend. A coworker has informed me that I should also buy a separate gift for my son, is this correct? Am I a deadbeat if I don't buy a separate gift, just from dad?

(lucky me). and as advised by the hospital i have had a normal period before trying again, its been 5 weeks and 4 days since the first day of my last period and i normaly go just under 5 weeks, ive been getting really bad period pains (as normal for me) for the last 2 weeks. i normaly have them for about a week before i have a period so ive taken several tests since last monday and all have said the same appart from today i bought 3 tests 1 was a twin pack from the £ shop and another from a chemists. i uesd them all useing a sample from this mornring and the ones form the £ shop have a a bold pink line and a very faint pink line but the other test only had one pink spot to show the test had worked. im very worried as im in quite a bit of pain but it comes and goes. im going to the Dr's on monday and i know they will say the pain is normal but its just like last time any advice would be welcome

Is anyone else on the depo-provera shot? I am and I was just wondering how it affects other women. I used to be on the pill but got pregnant on it so I have been using depo since my baby was born almost 8 months ago. I'm just interested in how it affects other women. And your opinions on it. To me it is more convenient then taking a pill every day.

My son is going to be 3 in a couple weeks. I can't afford a lot of money for a birthday party for him so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Also.... if anyone knows any websites for kids toys where you can order now, pay later...?
Someone help. I want my little boy to have a good birthday but I am struggling with bills as well, and what money I do have needs to be paid on bills.
