I am 7 1/2 months pregnant-we tried for a long time to get pregnant and are taking the opportunity to not find out what we are having-but even when people ask "what are you having?" My reponse to them doesn't seem to phase them from telling me what they assume I am having-they seem to think because of the way I am carrying-or the way they carried or their sister or friend-they know what I am having-my question is-what do I say to these people who seem to think that they know better than me, or my Dr. at that?? I want to be rude-I want to tell them what I really think of their opinion-and why I don't want to hear it-but everyone seems to think that "its just my emotions", Everyones opinion is ruining my fun-what do you suppose I do?? or say at that??

JUST FEELING FAT?!

Is there anything wrong with wanting to do more in life? I have 2 daughters who mean the world to me but want to do more. I've always wanted to be a labor and delivery nurse but I've wanted to even more since giving birth to my first child. It doesn't cost too much money to take classes but would it be too much? I know in my heart what I want but I just want other opinions.

I am nervous because I am a little over eight weeks and all of a sudden I don't feel anything. I just don't feel pregnant. I was sick to my stomach for a week and now it's gone. My discharge has even slowed down, my breasts don't seem as large and I still have a stretchy feeling in my abdomen. Does this sound normal?

My 5 month old has just recently started shaking his head from side to side (like he's saying no) he seems to do it alot when he's tired, but then he also does it during the day and he thinks it's funny. He is doing it so much that he has worn a big bald spot on the back of his head, it looks like I took the scissors and cut his hair! Any thoughts or experiences?

I am almost 18 weeks along. I am wondering if it's normal not to gain a lot of weight. I never got morning sickness. I just walk a lot and watch what I eat.

My husband and I just recently found out we were expecting our first child. Now we are thinking of some names. The girl name was very easy to pick, but picking a boy's name seems to be kind of hard. Does anyone have any suggestions? They do not have to be unique names or anything like that... Thanks :)

For the last 5 months (since I started charting CM and CP), my periods have been very regular. Exactly 29 Days. Well this past cycle was weird. I was due to start my period on October 4th (my b-day, how funny). On October 3rd, I woke up in the morning, I saw spotting when I wiped. I though that maybe I was preggers, since I had a little bit of cramps and nipple tenderness. It went on like that for 2 more days until Friday the 6th I started full on bleeding. How Sad. Anyways, I'm trying to track my cycle to see when I ovulate, but I'm confused. Always 29 days and all of a sudden 31. When did I ovulate. I figured if going 29 days I ovulated on Saturday, but 31 days I ovulated yesterday. I had sex with my husband on Thurday of last week, Sunday, & yesterday. I'm SOOO CONFUSED. What Are My Chances??? Can I just use 30 days as my cycle for now?

IF you have blocked tubes i know that you can either go throw sur.or IVF and an IVF cost like $10,000. my med. don't pay for that and i am a full time college student so there is no way i can afford that. If you know anything about blocked tubes or any programs that help pay for IVF let me know please. TTC for two years.

I had a c-section three months ago. I ended up having a healthy baby, but, I'm wondering if anyoneelse felt a bit cheated out of their big day? I was really looking forward to experiencing childbirth and I feel a bit like I haven't 'earned' my son the way other mothers do, or that I've somehow failed. Anyone ever felt like this? How did you deal with it?

We are looking into adoption, been to family services offices so many times it's unreal. I know they want to be sure that we are good people who will love and provide for this child but good grief! I'm getting so discouraged and wonder if anyone out there can help us get the ball rolling without so much red tape.

When I was 21 I got pregnant and had a misscarraige in my 2nd month. I was told that my breast will still leak because I was pregnant. Usually a couple of days before my period this happens and when I get it, it stops. for the last 2 weeks if I touch my nipples it will leak. They dont hurt but they do feel strange. Has anyone ever had this happen to them.

Do you compare your children to others? If you are around someone that seems like their children are smarter, sweeter, cuter and better behaved than your children are, how does that make you feel? Do you try to show your child off to prove that they are sweet and smart, too? ( or whatever it is?)

This is just a general question. Please do not give me advice.

my daughter is almost 6mos. old and I still have her in the craddle next to me at night. And during the day for naps I put her in the crib in her room. She is doing betterin there and taking longer naps My husband and I know she is getting to big for her craddle and needs to be moved in the crib but I worry about sids. But everyone I talk to say if she can roll over and get her arms out she will be fine and she moves all over and rolls from front to back and keeps rolling . But I want to know is it ok to move her crib to my room for 2mos to keep a eye on her to make sure she will be ok on her own. For when we put her in her own room at night For when she is ready. And also she like to sleep on her side and pushes her self to the top of the craddle where her head hits and almost her face against the bumper pad is that normal or safe because I seem to loose sleep checking on her at night to see if she is ok. Need some advice Thank You!!

I had sex a little bit ago, and it seems as though whenever I do it I get extramally freaked out that there is a chance of me becoming pregnant. We were protected, he had pulled out before going completely through with it, and masterbated the rest of the way. The thing that freaks me out however is I was having my period at this time. But now that it has been three days my period is gone (period lasted two days). (Which is unnormal for me). Should I be worried? It didnt look like anything broke on the condom but what if a little did come out? What are the chances of me being pregnant?
