How should it be prepared? Fresh/frozen? I havn't eaten that many varieties of fish, so I was also looking for some suggestions. I know that I like Haddock, are there any other fish types that would be similar that I may like as well, possibly less expensive?

What do you think of the names Rena and Lois? They are family names so that would probably be the only reason we would ever use them. Too old sounding?

What name did you want to name your child that your husband/wife hated? I'm sure everyone has had that happen! What name was it and what did you end up naming them?

My son- to be 4 yrs makes me nervous, when it comes to meal time. He has always been a difficult kid -when it comes to eating and drinking. It takes him atleast 1.5 or 2 to finish his meals. And refuses to swalow and chew. I have hired this nanny and he seems to eat by himself when we are not at home- but when he sees us, he wants us to feed him. It is not that i baby him... i yell and shout at him as he just refuses to eat on his own... He knows he needs to eat to grow big and smart. But simply doesn't do it. What should i do?

She did give me her driver's licence number when i asked her for it.- Although i did not mention to her that i would do a record check on her

I'm currently 37.5 weeks with my first baby. My OBGYN wants to induce labor at 39 weeks due to my gestational diabetes, but I don't feel it's necessary. I just had an ultrasound that showed the baby was actually small for how far along I am, so macrosomia is not an issue, and I'm not having any other health problems. Is there a reason that they should induce when I haven't even reached my due date, or should I throw a fit?

and become more responsible.. I have been with my bf for 2 years.. i want to have a baby. I am 24 and he's 27. I am just affraid that If I were to get preg that I would be the one taking care of it and all. while he still goes off and hangs out with his friends and does whatever.. His last ex-gf had gotten preg and he quit drinkin, dressed up all the time, and didn't want to go out much anymore, but then he found out that she had cheated on him and the baby wasn't his.. He knows i'm not gonna go anywhere.. and he knows i'm faithfull to him. and I trust he is to me..

Just to clear this all up: I DID NOT have a c-section and do that to a poor innocent baby! It got alot of people upset and mad when I posted my previous question--but all I was trying to do was to make a point. I was making the point that everyone would think it was sick and disgusting to do such a thing yet the very same people think it's okay to do that to a baby while they are still inside the womb and growing. Sorry if I upset you! I seriously did not mean to cause such an uproar. I would NEVER do that to a child. I am pro-life 100%!

go smash his head on the floor, wall, nearest toy. I have never shown him ths, he just does this himself.
Or he will put his fingers in his mouth and scrape them with his teeth.
I am getting really worried about the head banging, because when he smashes his head he SMASHES his head, no lil thump either.
He is two.

Why does it seem like my family is so against me having kids? They all love my girls and they love being grandparents/aunts/uncles to them. And we never ask for help and are good parents. Then why are they always saying stuff to me like don't have anymore kids anytime soon or things like that? My husband and I both agree that we want more kids and we don't mind having them spaced close together. Shouldn't the decision be only up to us? It's not like we are asking for advice from them. And I could understand if we were always mooching off of them or weren't being responsible. Should I just ignore their comments and do what I want? Or is there some reason why maybe I should listen to what they say? We have 3 girls, spaced 20 months apart.

I've heard in several instances that sending a child to day care is wrong. I don't understand this. If you check out the day care before hand and know it is a good, caring, and reputable place what is wrong with it? Do you see day care as a threat to parenting? What is the difference between day care and school? If it is such a horrible thing to let our children be with other children who have different values and whose parents have different parenting techniques, should we not send our children to school either?

What products can you recommend to help me know when the best time conceive (i.e. ovulation, temperature). And has anyone tried the calendar method? If so can I get some info on that?

I asked if it would be considered "okay" for a pregnant woman to have a c-section early on in her pregnancy because she didn't want to continue the pregnancy. The baby being so small would of course die shortly after. I asked if it would be considered "okay" to do that and then have the doctor take a knife/razor and slice the baby's arms and legs off. Everyone thought I was sick and disgusting and evil to think such a thing. My real question is this: If it's not "okay" to do that---then why is it okay to do that to an innocent child when they are still in the womb and living and growing?
