Pregnancy & Parenting - 5 November 2006

We hear a lot about how to avoid pregnancy, but hypothetically, if someone has unprotected sex when they are ovulating, are they pretty much guaranteed to get pregnant?

Woke from a deep sleep last night to hear noise, look out window, and see trees/bushes swathed in tp. Is this a California tradition? No one tp'd houses when I was growing up in the south/on the East Coast. I saw who did it (doubt they will do it again as I banged on window and screamed like a banshee). My son is very upset with me for my reaction -- claims it's all in fun, that it means the girl who did it likes him (he is only 10!). I say it's vandalism because it took me an age to clean all the lousy stuff up. What's worse, the child's mother denied that she had done it when my son asked her about it this morning. ! I saw her plain as day! Just drop it? I still feel angry about it and am tempted to tell the child and her mother that I didn't appreciate the vandalism at all, and that if it happens again I'll call the police and have them cited. Don't get me wrong; I'm usually pretty mild mannered and don't mix it up with my neighbors. For some reason this has incensed me.

We are soon having our fourth child. Naming this one is proving to be a challenge. So far we have come up with

Cameron William

Liam John

Myles William

I would like to keep William (or Liam) in memory of my grandfather, but we don't want William for a first name.

Does anyone have any opinions on any of these names or any other suggestions? It would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks!!!

Last name Gillis.

Other children Breagh Reigh, Michaela Margaret, Mitchell David.

I am 35 weeks and I am still going to the doctor once a month! A few weeks ago when I went the doctor only checked the babies heartbeat... When will they start checking to see if I am dilated or effaced? I have been having tightening and some cramps but my doctor says there is no need to check me. I have also been leaking fliuid... however I dont know what kind. It's to thin to discharge and to thick to be urine! Sound I be concerned?

Got circumcised a few months ago (I'm22) and I've heard on here that other guys have a BROWN scar line from their circumcision. I have no brown line on my penis. It's just a pinkish discoloration underneath the head, with a bumpy line that meets the shaft skin. So why isn't mine brown?

I really like these diapers, but I think my son might be allergic to them. I'm trying to find a diaper(not Huggies) that is almost the same as Pampers Cruisers.

I am process of trying to get pregnant. This would be my fourth child. My youngest is 6 years old. I have had all my children at the same hospital and very pleased with them. Also I love my obgyn. The hospital where I want to deliver does not preform tubal ligations. I was wanting one right away because I'm right there. I think it would be more painful to heal and then go in and have it done and have to heal all over again. Any suggestions?

Is it cruel for a mother to tell her son that if people see him behaving badly to his mother that they will think hes bad inside? Mother 43, is single, divorced, and has much stress, and unhappiness. Is this just a way of getting him to be nice to mother?

This may sound odd but has anyone else had a problem with a sore vagina (outside not inside)? My outer lips feel really heavy and painful, especially when I walk! (Sorry to be abit graphic - it's a pretty embarrassing question to ask, I know!) There has been no bleeding or anything. It also feels like my baby is trying to push through my rib cage some nights and it's quite painful sometimes. Is this normal and has anyone else had these problems? My first pregnancy and I was just curious!!

My two girls ages 8 and 6 are so wild. I feel like the worst parent. I try to teach them the right things, and be a good parent, but it seems like no matter what I do they do not pay any attention to me when I tell them to do something, or settle down. I finally get their attention and they say ok, and then just go right back to the same thing they were doing as if they were just saying ok to shut me up. I'm so sick of it. I'm the parent and I should have control of the situation, but it's gotten so far out of hand that I don't know how to handle it anymore. HELP!!! I almost feel like it's even harder because there are 2 of them and one of me. They just laugh if they get in trouble. They share a room so I can't really tell them to go to their room and I need to have them somewhere seperated where they are away from me so I can cool off before I talk to them. I get so upset that I just want to scream at them and I know that wouldn't help the situation any.

I have tried getting them to join the chess club, but their flippers keep knocking over the pieces. A few joined the drama club, but their vocal range is limited. They seemed to lose interest in the pep club. Would the swim club be best for them?

So, I left the house this morning to run to costco and target for baby food. I was on an empty stomach and was going to pick up thai food for hubby and I. Being that I am 4 months prego... you tend to turn into a different creature when you mix pregnancy and hunger. So I am about 25 minutes from home and I call my hubby to get everything set up for our lunch.... I tell him I'm staaaarving! When I get home, my drink was set out and that's it. (Football today...) So, naturally I'm irritable because baby is crying, I'm hungry babies hungry, and hubby is irritated that I'm irritated, he says he's been getting everything ready the whole time. So after I eat I ask him if he was watching football or getting ready and he still claims getting everything ready and gets super mad at me and says "What just because you want to stuff a cheeseburger down your face, you have to get all bitchy." Just curious what all you pregnant women would say, or if you've ever been preggers!
