Pregnancy & Parenting - 9 November 2006

My b/f has a child from a previous 'one night stand' and just recently i found out that he gave his three year old son beer while at a party at his fathers house. i think that is irresponsible and wrong.
He says that his father let him have beer and that he turned out fine. YEAH RIGHT! Beer has been the biggest problem in his life, he has a DUI, fell off a three-story balcony while drunk, causing thousands in medical bills, and not to mention, got a girl pregnant and now has a child he can't afford.
I dont know what to say to make him see that he is only hurting his son. Does anyone have experience with a situation like this? Or should i just leave before some of his stupid-ness rubs off on me?

I'm 43 and getting married for the second time - I have a 14 year old and my husband to be, has no kids and wants a child. Although I'm very healthy, don't look my age-- I'm scared to death because I keep hearing stories about how you run the risk of having a child with down-syndrome - and others say at 43 I should be ok, its 45 and older that you really have to worry - - Anyone have any experience or know of anyone who's had children in their 40's?

with not naming my fifth child a Biblical name? I mean I like the name Stephen for a boy and it is in the Bible. I actually decided on Stephen Jeremy. But for a girl I like Amy and cant find a Biblical name for the middle name. My other four boys have Bible names. What do you think?

She started waking up crying shortly after I quit breastfeeding. Sometimes he cries for five minutes and she can't be consoled. Sometimes she gets fussy in the evenings. She is 23 mos old.

Step daughter will be 5 in Jan. She is still peeing on herself (ALOT).She will be wet from her waistband to knees on her pants adn doesnt care. She will poop on herself and then lie, again just sits in it. Her mother didnt care until now. Games, dolls, other favorite things have been taken away. She doesn't care. She can't speak properly, can't read, can't write. She will stand there and pee on herself while you are talking to her. She cannot put a sentence together, you cant understand her. She has no thought process. If you ask her if she danced at daycare, she starts saying "and dog camo-momma work-dere's a bug-i'm thirsty, etc". She cannot tell you why she wont go to thepotty. She sometimes ignore you when you are talking to her and will lie that she went on the potty when she didnt. Sometimes, she cannot follow simple instructions. It's sad. I have taught her how to spell her name, ,but she still doesn't realize she has a first name and a last name. I care and am trying to help.

He is only in daycare 3 days a week at a very small in home facility. He is the only boy and the sitter has never had a problem with him hitting the girls there, she said he’s really “lovey” and gives hugs and kisses to them all the time.

But I noticed when I pick him up he is trying to slap my face. I don't want to hit him for hitting me...really what would that teach him?

He is usually "lovey" with us (my husband, our daughter and me) but every once in a while he just starts hitting us? And....I'm 7 months pregnant and he will even hit my belly, like an open hand slap? How can I stop this?

I am 22 and have been with my boyfriend for about a year. We have been living together for most of it. I recently found out that we are expecting our first baby. My boyfriend, myself, and his family are so excited. My mom and her family on the other hand are not. My mom told me I should have an abortion because I am too young and I'm ruining my life. She told me that I will never finish school because I am too lazy and unmotivated. And all of sudden she doesn't like my boyfriend. I just can't believe all of the hurtful things she said. I understand that she has the right to her opinion but she doesn't have the right to make me feel bad about myself. I cry almost everyday because I feel like i've lost my mom. I'm not sure if it will be this way forever of if she will ever come around. My boyfriend and I are financially and emotionally ready to support a child and I just wish she would realize that.

If you have sex on day and come on your period the next day can it still be a possibility that you can be pregnant?? Also if you had sex the day after you ovulated which happened to be two weeks ago can you still be pregnant and get your last period or what??
