Pregnancy & Parenting - 20 November 2006

For the past two nights I have been having dreams that I was pregnant. The dream I had last night was that I went into labor. I have these dreams every few months. My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years and we are serious. We are not trying to have a baby, we want to finish school and get married before we try. I am only 20...why am I having these dreams? I wake up and they feel so real I wake up and I get kinda scared and shaken up. Anytime I tell my boyfriend or best friend they kinda laugh it off.

I cut back from 3 cups to 1 cup of caffeinated coffee a month ago. Last week I decided to cut back to only 1 or 2 cups of decaf. Is this bad for trying to conceive. We're already having difficulties both with my levels of prolactin and his levels of sperm count. I'm so discouraged and just need someone to talk to. Please wish us baby dust!!!!

what do you think the chances of me being pregnant are if i had sex at least once every weekend for a month with no condoms and no pulling out do you think that there could still be a possibility that im not?

How do you know if the baby has engaged? He has been head down since about 28 weeks and Ihave always carried low, but for the past two days I can't even reach around my big ole stomach to wipe, plus when I walk I look like a sumo wrestler because I cannot get my legs close together. On top of all that my "area" and my butt are always so sore, expecially when I am walking around, and sharp pains while I am laying down. Im 35 weeks, is this what is happening. Oh yeah also I have been leaking fluid for about 3 days now, (not my water) could this be caused by dialation or my mucus plug?

I stopped taking my birth control pill on Oct 22nd. I just started my period today (I was a week later than I was while on the pill) and I am trying to figure out when the best days are for me to try to conceive. I know that it is about 14-16 days after the start of your period that you ovulate but what would be the best day or days to have sex??? And I have to say that getting sex out of my husband is sometimes like pulling teeth, its a struggle. So Im trying to find the best day that it would be most likely cuz well when you dont have sex as much as you would like it can be harder to conceive ya know. Any serious advice is welcome........

I read there that it does. What do you think?
Is the distribution of birth control demeaning to women, degrading of human sexuality and adverse to human health and happiness?

My 10 year old son would like to wrestle this winter at school. We were going to let him until we started talking to a wrestling coach. Now we are not so sure if wrestling would be good for him.
Our concerns are we don't want him to have to start worrying about making weight. I think 10 years old is way to young for kids to start worrying about what they weigh. If the child is healthy and active, then that is all they should care about.
The other concern we have is because of how big our child is, he would have to wrestle against more mature boys. Our son is 10.5 years old and is 5'2 and weighs about 140. He wears a size 12 in mens shoes. He's a monster for his age.
We don't think it is fare he wrestle against smaller kids but it's also not fare that he would also have to wrestle against kids that are in middle school and physically more mature.
If this were your son, would you allow him to wrestle or would you encourage baseketball instead?

Ok I am 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant, and I have done lots of reading... the book "What to expect when you are expecting"... and its kiinda scaring me, the whole miscarriage section... so now I am worried about every little cramp or pain I feel.... does anyone understand how I feel... everyday I am thankful for a successful day... however its makinig me crazy... I know I shouldnt think about it, but with this being my first pregnancy I am, and I wish I wasn't... I am also thinking of happy things and wonderful things of how our (my husband, baby, and I) life will be... but the whole miscarry thing keeps creeping its way into my mind... so has anyone gone through this?? What are the odds of miscarrying??

I know the symptoms.... and I havent had any.

Can anyone give me some guidance or advice on how to get through these next 6 weeks??

Thank you sooooo much!!!!

My little boy is currently suffering from uncontrolable erections, which are bothering him as his classmates are teasing him about them.
Is there anyway he can prevent these or at least discretely hide them, for example if he was to go to the toilet would this help?
I am a single mum with no male to ask for advice,
Please help xx.
