I need a unisex name for a personal reason. Do you know of any that I can use? Or do you know of a website that has Jewish or biblical unisex names? I wanted a name that meant something special to me.

in regards to the teen either a) keeping/raising the baby, b) putting the baby up for adoption, c) teen's parents' adopting/caring for baby, or d) abortion. Not sure if there's laws on this topic or not? Who gets to decide what happens - the minor or the parents? I would HOPE that the teen and parents could work it out together and make a decision, but I'm sure that isn't always the case - just look at that recent couple from maine who tried to force their daugther to get an abortion.

On the fast track career-wise (although looking to cool it and get a little more "real" in my life) and long commutes to work. Our house is in process (a fixer upper small historical) and probably will never be "done". I'm not babycrazy, yet, I'm having feelings of really wanting to give to another little person that's all mine and my husband's. It's a decision that's huge and not one you can take back with a receipt. I'm terrified, but feel like I'll regret it if we don't try. I have feelings that I won't be crushed forever if we remain a childless couple (there are benefits to that my friends with children remind me of), so my question is... if I'm not babycrazy, but want a baby, is this right for me? Has anyone my age felt this way? You've gotten this far with your spouse, like your life, want to add to it, but wouldn't be broken if you didn't? Or are all parents-to-be out there on a single track about having kids and I'm just one of those people that shouldn't consider it?

My six month old baby has severe chapped skin on her cheeks and neck.I have tried Eucerine , Vaseline and Johnson's lotion and none of the above has helped at all.
The skin has become so red and rough that I am begining to wonder if it really is dry skin or something else.
The doctor says apply Vaseline but as I mentioned it did not help one bit.
Can anybody please suggest something.
I am sure its not any kind of allergy as I havent given her anything different or new to eat nor have I used any new baby products on her.
Please advice.
Thanks

I am home most of the time with my 2 & 3 year old girls. They go to Montessori School for 3 hours each day while I take college classes. We are home for the rest of the day except for the occassional outing/errand. I am having a hard time balancing time with the kids, housework, homework, and time for myself. What do my kids need from me and how much time should they be spending entertaining themselves? How do other mom's spend their days? I would be interested in knowing what a typical day is like for other moms.

Ok I have two questions the first one is for my friend, she had sex when she was spotting really lightly and the guy did *** inside of her, can she still get pregnant when she was spotting? My second question is how early can you start getting pregnancy symptoms? My period was on the 16th I had unprotected sex on the 21st and had light spotting after and then it got a little darker then light so it was off and on. Then my breast started to feel sore yesterday and they feel sore today too.So I wanted to know if it's all in my head or could I have symptoms this early?

My Partner and I have been trying to have a baby now for just over a year and have had no success. I have tried everything I can think of, standing on my head, taking my tempriture, eating spinich, taking folic acid and I've even giving up for 6 months and still nothing. Is there anyone out there with some useful tips? I need anything that would and has worked for anyone else. I never thought that I would be one of these people who you see in movies that can't concieve, but obviously I am. We have both been tested and the Dr's gave us the OK. I just don't know why this is happening to me. Please someone help me!!!

My girlfriend that I work with is avoiding me completely since a blabbermouth let it out that I was pregnant. I was not even going to tell her because I know they have been trying to have a baby for many years now, and I did not want to be rude or insensitive...plus, I'm still rather shocked and upset about being pregnant again myself.

Strangely, she was very nice to me when I met her and I had my newborn, (now one year old) but another friend told me today that she said some cruel things about me and I don't understand because I went out of my way to help her when she first got here, and I thought we were better than this. We usually chat every morning and have coffee together, but not since yesterday after the word got out. I feel bad for her, but it took me many years to get pregnant with my first baby as well, and my husband has a very poor sperm count. I have been there before. I wish she would not be so mean to me, I won't even talk about "baby" anything. I'm not too excited.

Parents, at what age did you start giving your child an allowance? How much was it and what types of chores did your kids have to do to earn that allowance? My daughter is 7 and she does have to clean her room and help with setting the table and such, but seems to be getting less and less helpful. Want to encourage her to help more, thought maybe it's time to start allowance. What are your suggestions?

I've been reading a lot of comments on this lately. I find it really sad and disturbing that peole are so bigoted still! Parents are supposed to love their children unconditionally, I can't imagine how some parents put down or even kick their gay children out of their homes. Makes me sick.

This is very disturbing news. In addition to the following true story...
One son lost his watch, and was very upset. We dug and dug in those balls, trying to find the watch.

Instead, we found vomit, food, feces, and other stuff I do not want to discuss. I went to the manager and raised hell. Come to find out, the ball pit is only cleaned out once a month. I have doubts that it is even done that often. My kids will never play in another ball pit.
