Pregnancy & Parenting - 1 October 2006

How many people went by the old wives tales to guess what they were having and they were correct? EVERYONE is telling me I have to be having a girl (the way I'm carrying, my cravings, how sick I was in the beginning), but I can't tell any difference from my first child which was a boy. I just wanna know already!! lol

Folks are out here cutting up babies, molesting them, smoking crack around them, and beating them into mortal danger...but busybodies are worried about parents who have a few drinks and smoke some weed.

It's sad, beacuse some of the most down to Earth people I knew growing up blazed weed and drank. No one beat me, no one was cruel to, or neglected me. Wanna see real abuse? Here ya go busybodies: http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=2476682

To all that responded to my question... Don't be silly to think that only the IVF will be paid, I thought it would be logic knowledge. ALL RELEVANT expenses will be paid, including clothing etc etc. But will not "rent" a womb! Thanx to the nice poeple out there for you responses!!!

I'm 13 weeks pregnant and a fulltime college student. I have never found it so difficult to concentrate until this semester. It's not that I have a lot on my mind, I have minimal stress in my life but I find myself extremely tired most days. Is this normal and something I should expect with pregnancy?

Im a first time prego and made my first appt with a Dr. I made sure that the Dr. I made my appt was female. When i got into the room I was waiting to meet my new Doctor and in walks this MAN. I litteralty started shaking and asked what happened to the woman, he told me that the Dr I was suppose to see was his wife, and she was busy so he would take over.. my heart rate sky rocketed and I started crying because i didnt want him touching me.. now did i over react , or is it normal to not want to see a male Dr?

I took an EPT and after waiting a minute it showed negative, so I through it in the trash. Then about an hour later I just happened to look in the trash and it was a faint positive, so what should I do now. I don't know if it was + or -. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

My last baby died during labor. They do not know why. I want another someday but am afraid of going through this again. I always follow all advice from my doctor but want to know if there is anything additional that I can do to ease my mind in my next pregnancy. Do doctors do planned c sections in high risk pregnancy? Are there heart monitors that actually work at home? My last one did not. What else can I do so I do not go crazy with worry those 9 months?

We are trying to conceive, and I took a test which was negative. I am thinking that my body could just be taking its time bringing my period back, but I am wondering if there is a possibility of pregnancy, even with the negative test result. Any input?

I had an IUI done yesterday morning. Today I was kinda shaky. I thought it was just because I had been eating too much sugar. Then this afternoon I started feeling clamy and had to rush to the bathroom a couple times. I am now feeling ok in the stomach (not wonderful but ok) but the shakiness is back. Any ideas? This could be completely unrelated to my IUI, but not really sure.

Okay, I was supposed to start my period on thursday, it's sunday now and nothing. I had unprotected sex on the 7th and 15th(ovulation) day of my cycle. I took a ept +/- preg test tonight, I couldn't make it out if it was positive or not, it looked like something, a line, was showing up underneath. Then I looked at it an hour later and there was a line (positive). I know they say not to read the test after 10 minutes, but it never did that before. Maybe the next morning it would turn but not that fast...ya know. So what do you think? My missed period, I just got over a cold, heavy breasts, dry wierd taste in mouth, urinating alot, hungry, maybe that's a little too early,and sleepy. Dunno, if anyone can gimme some imput, it would be most appreciated. Thank you. =)

My sons sick so my wife was taking his temperature and all that boring stuff she does. Then he started puking all over the carpet and my wife didn’t care but I jus laughed at him and told him he was gross.. My wife overheard that and flipped out at me. The he said he had to go to the bathroom so , he had diarrhea and then I was like cracking up because my wife was like hugging him on the toilet.. It was hilarious. And yea now she’s bringing him to the hospital for some reason. But anyways, she wants to divorce me. She says im a lazy bum that has no job.. Which I really don’t so she’s not lying.. ohh and he’s only 2 years old. But is that a good reason to divorce someone? Like she totally hates me now. What should I do?

i am nursing my son and things are going well. however, we want my husband to participate in feedings and i also want to start freezing a good supply for when i go back to work.

anyway....i tried pumping for the first time today and i had no problems with the pumping or the let-down. the problem is that i can't get ahead of the game.

would it be an issue to use formula for about 2 feedings so i can get a supply started and get ahead of his feedings??

any thoughts appreciated!

thanks!
