There's an emptiness that just wont go away. I have the "blues" in my heart at all times.......I love my only son, but I cannot get over losing the younger brother or sister for him. And my husband "says" he wants kids.....but here I am nearly 10 years after we got together and still no kids. he doesn't want to adopt......I do, could, would, etc.......I am adopted myself......................

I am getting soooo pale being pregnant. Before I became pregnat, I would regularly tan at tanning salons to maintain a tan because the natural sun just burns my skin. I can't stand being this white! I have heard that self tanners are safe while you're pregnant, but I wasn't sure about mystic tanning since it is virtually impossible not to take at least one breath while you're inside that thing... inhaling the fumes. Would this be harmful for the baby?

I am a young mother.

My son is seven months old.

My family thinks he is a “blessing” (mistake), although he was not.

I have always wanted my children close together.

My husband and I would like to have another child, probably in the next year.

We are very concerned about what my family will think.

They won’t be mad but I don’t think they’ll approve.

We are financially stable and are great parents.

It isn’t that I’m unsure, I just don’t want to disappoint my parents.

Do you think we should hold off having another or should we just have another?

Since I already have one child, what difference would another make? (judgment wise--not financially)

Thank you all for your responses!

I'm sick and tired of having to go out of my way to help some poor little mommy because she can't do something because she has a baby. It's making me nuts! People think that they can let their kids run around and "be kids" A.K.A. destroy everything and then just laugh it off and say something like "kids will be kids." I see it everyday, and I'm getting tired. "I can't pick that up, I have a baby," "I don't want that, my son put it in the cart" "Can someone carry this for me I have a baby" "What am I supposed to do, I have my baby?" AHHHH It's making me insane! I don't mind helping people but I do mind when people are demanding that I help them. Does anyone else feel this way? I'm sorry but having kids is a choice, you are responsible for them.

I had a sex at last days of my period without protection and he came on outside of my body.

I just learned a woman can get pregnant though by pre-ejaculate so wondering what should I do for it.

I heard "morning after pills" won't work after 72 hours of the act so though I'd go to see a doc tomorrow,it'll be too late. (I had a sex on Saturday and today is monday already)

Should I wait for a month for pregancy test? Or is there any way that I can do from now?

Also I got cystitis from the sex and looking for a medicine but any recommendation for pills of it?

Thank you very much for reading. I'd appreciate for any info.

As for me i never knew because i first did at sixteen but will your breast stop growing, can you become infertile or are there no side effects people usually tell pre-teen and thirteen yr. old's that their too young for it but what does it do too you if you tend to have it at thirteen. I just do not get it!! I mean the teen girls.

I have a 14 month old daughter who does not have much contact with her father. He moved to New Mexico when she was not quite 3 months old. We have now divorced and he wants to take her to New Mexico for Christmas with her older sister. My problem with this is the baby has seen her father only twice since he left. She does not know him or his family. She has been raised by me alone and I am all that she knows as a parent. I am affraid that this will cause her mental harm of abandonment because she what know what the hell is going on.....anybody please help or comment.

and now I think I got her pregnant. Also, I think I got another girl pregnant a month ago. Overall, I don't like the girl I may have just gotten pregnant - she was just a fling, but I really do love the girl I got pregnant a month ago - she's by sisters best friend and I really love her. What should I do? Ask #1 to get an abortion and let #2 have my child? Or should I just let them both have the children. I'm 19 and truely confused. Help please.

On August 29th or 30th I was suppose to get my period it never came. On August 31st I took a test, it came out negative. Then on Sep 2nd I started bleeding light pink and brownish, that only lasted 3 days. I haven't taken a test since. But I've noticed when I bend over I feel a dull pain in my sides down by my ovaries, my right side hip hurts, i'm tired, it semms to me that I have to pee more often, moody, my breasts are tender, my nipples are darker.
I just need your honest opinons.

Since there are so many kids in the foster care system that are between the ages 3-17 that need loving families and homes, do you think it's selfish for people to set their eyes on babies only and ignore the other children?

I ask because I see alot of people on here that cannot conceive, but want babies.

Ever hear the expression, beggars can't be choosers and does that apply in this situation?
