Pregnancy & Parenting - 9 November 2006

Being pregnant and carrying a child is a not a thing to take risks with, therefore why do so many pregnant woman ask serious question to a bunch of people who effectively have no medical knowledge?

If you have a question about you pregnancy, should you not ask a Doctor or a Midwife?

He is 17 and had mild autism. Any ideas? He will be getting a job next semester but he is driving me nuts wanting to make money right now. So go work at McDonalds is not an option yet.

If we have conceived it would have been or will be this week - I keep thinking I feel different (I know it's my imagination) but I feel like I am going to explode wanting to know if there's a baby "in there"!!!

if so what are the side effects? Is it necessary to bleed so that you get rid of excess things inside you?

Doctors as soon as i can, apparently they have had my urine results back from my first midwife appointment (I am 11 weeks & 4 days gone with my first) she said i had a serious water/bladder infection that had a special name beginning with A, cant remeber though, she asked if i'd had any symptoms i.e pain whilst peeing etc & i replied i hadnt. She then said usually it may cure itself but as im pregnant i need to get medication for it. She also said i need to see my doctor asap because it can be harmfull to my baby if left untreated. Now i am so so so scared because i could have had it for the whole three months, i just dont know. Please can someone who has had this please help me or at least tell me the worst case sinareo if it has effected my baby. Due to PCOS i have been trying for a year to conceieve this baby & I was so excited & now i am terrified. I know it is not a huge issue compared to other peoples complications but for a first time mum to be this is terrifying. Help

I am breastfeeding but occasionally when she goes through her spurts once or twice a day of emptying both breasts and still being hungry the doctor told me to give her an oz or 2 of formula. The iron in the formula is making her constipated, my mom said she used to have to get formula without iron for me when I was little. Do they make any formulas that have less or no iron than the others?

My son has GERD & is on meds. Anyways, some nights he is up every hour! Last night he slept for 5 hours, till 2 am, then woke up, ate & was up every hour until 7 am! At 7, he had his first bowel movement since before bed & then he slept for 3 more hours. He does this a lot. He won't have a BM at night, and then he wakes up gassy, bloated, grunting, ect... Any ideas?

I saw this procedure on google video, a doc performing a cesarian, instead of cutting the muscles, he just pulled them apart, seperated them and held them out of the way... why do the docs have to actually cut them?

I have a five year old only child. She has many cousins that she plays with regularly. She is in KG and goes to after school care ( her father and i both work full time). So many people I meet ( as well as family members) tell me that I should have at least one more child and that we are being selfish to raise her alone. We dont want more children. Are we being selfish to rise her as a only child?

I am just wondering if you:
1) Got pregnant because you didn't have proper sex education
2) You knew everything about how to protect yourselves from pregnancy and still didn't anyway because of pressure from the guy
3) You didn't protect yourself anyway because you somewhere wanted to take the chance?

Would it have made a difference if you mother had taken you to an Ob/Gyn and put you on birth control? Would it have made a difference if your school taught you how to properly use a condom and to use it always?

Also, did you come from families that expected you to go on to college, or did you expect you'd go to college? I am just wondering how much education factors into the equation.

I wanted to know what the effect of continuing birth control pills would be on a baby if you didn't know you conceived. I missed a pill a week after my period by 5 hours (I usually take it at noon but didn't take it until 4:45pm) and my husband and I had sex that night (we both knew I had missed the pill and I know you can miss by around 2 hours and be okay, and I'm sure there's little chance I'm pregnant). I don't think I've had any symptoms such as sore breasts but I did have some very light pink spotting a few days later, but was just curious as to the effect on the baby. I've been taking prenatals for two weeks because we do plan to try in about 4-6 months. Also, I pee all the time but it's normal for me, I drink abuot a gallon of water a day. Thanks for your input.

It happened in one night! Hubby and I put him to bed as usually and after about an hour he started to cry saying he saw "something standing by his bed, then swooped under his covers:)" Since then, he doesn't even like to play in his room during the day without mommy or daddy to be in there with him! He will turn four in one month. How can I help get over his fear!

Some other info is we recently found out we are expecting our second:) Do you think this is a way for attention? Like he's trying to show us he's not as much of a big boy as we think he is and he is still a baby? I don't know! I don't want my baby to scared of his room! We never had a problem until now!
