Pregnancy & Parenting - 9 November 2006

I just found out I will be the proud Mommy of twin boys. Is there anything I should do differently? That I wouldn't do during normal pregnancy? This is my first pregnancy anyway, so everything is new to me. I am 17 weeks along and I am 23 years old. I still work and luckily I have a sit down job so I am not standing around or lifting heavy objects. It seems like I've gotten weaker since I've been pregnant, but now with two I'm afraid to over do myself even more.... Anyone ever have twins before???

I had sex on 10/21 and got my period on 10/31 it was only 4 days and then it COMPLETELY stopped! My breasts are still sore and very tender as of today, and I have nausea. Why are my breasts sore when I had my period over a week ago??

I have been wanting to get a tattoo of my nickname for awhile now. Can I do it while pregnant? I am 29 weeks, and was thinking of having it done on my leg, above my ankle. A friend of mine said it wasn't safe. Can I do this without hurting my baby?

how do you make it on one salary? I've been at home for a while but will need to return back to work within a few months. How do others make it for years on one salary. My husband works his butt off but its still difficult. Any suggestions. Serious answers only please.

In case no one else has noticed, it seems that every time a celebrity mom has a baby, they automatically have a c-section. I don't understand why. I have had two kids...one vaginally and one c-section. I didn't elect to have a c-section, I had to have it, because my baby was breech. My doctor even tried external version first, because I didn't want to have surgery to have a baby. There are risks with both types of delivery, but I must be missing something. When they get on Letterman to talk about their new child, they never say WHY they and their doctor decided on a c-section. Hell, it hurt worse for me to have a c-section and I had a longer recovery time. Maybe someone could shed some light on this for me.

It may sound like a stupid question but I was wondering why you can't some how make your milk come in sooner so you can actually have the milk in and ready for the baby and maybe some back up. I'm going to be very busy after the baby is born and would like to have some extra milk.

Okay, reading other people's questions and answers lately....I decided to do my own research. My question is why have all of you anitcircumcision people lied? I just spent a good 3 hours trolling the APP.org website and there are TONS of studies showing the health benefits. It DOES reduce the risk of STD's, UTI, and infections by 54%! Also, it poses less risk to spread infections to women by over 70% of the time when no condom is used. Not to mention all the hype of women prefering the look of it. I really started digging into it when my friend mentioned children getting tormented in school gym classes for not being circumcisied and all the people's completely outlandish reports on here. My doctor had already recommended it, but I wanted to check things out myself. I am glad I did, it has only made us 200% percent sure that circumcision is the right thing to do. Plus, research is putting aside all that's said in th Bible. It does say that God's men are to be circumcisied!!

I was pregnant with my son last year at 240 lbs. I am now 260lbs and I am not being able to get pregnant. We have been trying for 5 months and I am loosing hope and thinking that it is because I am overweight. I have no health issues, I had no problems while i was pregnant with my son. I feel so un-womanly and am loosing hope. Are there any other women who are big who have gotten pregnant recently?

I'm 13, my breasts are a bit more developed than those of most girls my age. My mom is very caring and makes me wear bras like in this site http://www.anita.com/de/en/0,1,104,1478,39236__products-detail.htm They have 4 hooks in the back, are good bras but most girls my age wouldn't like them. They make me sweat but it was mom decision, her law. I did everything I could but she didnt back off. Though this makes me mad,she's a wonderful mom, I avoided fighting to much and ended up promising I'd always wear them as I was told. I lost the battle, not even mom's friends couild convince her. And my dad told me to listen to her cause she loves me. I know, but hate those bras. Since I lost the battle, mom won't really back off, I'd like some tips on how I can get used to those bras, especially when it's hot. They make me sweat. and have 4 hooks in the back, kinda hard to put on. But it's my mom bra law.
(I could take it off behind her back but I'm a good girl)
