Her name may be Jade (?) Mc****, also more first names would be apreciated. We have a daughter named Zella Marie already and are looking for something with the same excentric ring.

I think getting an abortion is so mean because you are killing a living thing: a human baby. The baby deserves a life in this new world since the person who got pregnant with the baby brought the baby into her womb.

I'm not pregnant, but when I am I would really like to have it naturally, I understand that it's easier to get an epidural but I want to make sure I can enjoy the very first moments w/ my baby and I've heard that and epidural can cause long lasting migranes and life long side affects, and if I have the child naturally I feel that it will be worth it. Family members advise me otherwise since I have a small body frame, but everyone of them have had a C-section or epidural. Can anybody give me some advice or tips from their own experience? Any advice will be wonderful.

I am 5w5d pregnant. This is my 12th pregnancy, I have lost nine babies and have 2 children.

I have been spotting for the last day or two. My hcg is still doubling normally and the ultrasound showed a baby measuring 5w6d and a yolk sac, but still too early for heartbeat.

My doctor thinks everything will be fine ... but I need to know ... has anyone experienced bleeding in early pregnancy, and still gone on to have a baby? Or am I right in thinking this pregnancy will end, like the others?

I went to a party about a month ago and kinda got messed up and madeout with sum dude who was making out with about 7 other girls and he seemed to kinda of "get happy" but i didn't notice and i sat on his lap. I'm 2 weeks late and I'm never late. I remember that I was wearing a mini skirt that night when i sat on his lap and he had precum and people are telling me I may be having a baby but I'm not sure. As soon as they started pointing things out more and more things started happening and I don't know if I'm bringing it on myself from being paranoid or if it is really happening. I took a test but it didn't come out right so now i really don't know and I'm not sure what to think or do.

While I often find motherhood exhausting and frustrating, today was a joyful day. My 15-month-old was adorable and funny, my 3 1/2-year-old was helpful and smart as usual. Its hard to be a stay-at-home mom but today was the day that made the rest of it worth it. I hope the rest of you with small children also had a great day!

I had my period on November 6, and had sex on November 13. After 5 days, I started to spot, which I considered to be implantation. I have been getting these really bad dizzy spells. I have also been very tired with mood swings. I have been vomiting and feeling nauseous since Saturday. I went to my Dr. He took a pregnancy test but it was negative. When he examined me he said my uterus had was enlarged. So he is scheduling me for a D&C next week. I am afraid he did the test to early to tell. I am really thinking I am pregnant. I also get very bad pains in my abdomen. Can someone give me some ideas? I don't want to do the procedure if I don't have to. Should I tell my Dr. to do the blood test first.

How comfortable would you be leaving your young child in the care of a couple who's child was abducted years ago and never found?

Would it matter whether the couple were good people or not? I commented over lunch today that I would feel very uncomfortable leaving my child in the care of someone who's own child was abducted, but I was verbally reprimanded by the two men sitting with me (there were no women present). Is there a difference in the way than men and women would perceive such a situation?

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

I am 34 weeks along my pregnancy. At my last two appointments with the doctor, my blood pressure was kind of elevated (136/84). I will be seen every week from now on. I have no swelling or protein in my urine (thank God), but are there ways of controling my blood pressure by doing certain things? I would like to hear from your experiences and what you did to prevent being induced (if that was the case)? Thank you for your help.

Serious answers only please!

I picked up the ashes of my stillborn baby boy today. What did you do with yours? I wanted to get a small locket necklace that holds ashes.. and otherwise I'm kind of at a loss for what I should do. I've had the box of footprints and his birth certificate in my closet for two weeks and It just feels terribly inappropriate.

I have a burial permit in my possession and I own my home. It's an option but I'd rather not. I kind of feel like spreading the ashes is like throwing away his body. Someone provide me some insight, please!

My two year old son, who up to this point has been a perfect sleeper and going to bedder, has all of a sudden started to really struggle at bedtime. He wants the light on but can't sleep with his room so bright. He cries for hours and asks for me. The only way he goes to sleep is if my husband is really stern with him (which I do not like AT ALL). I have stuck to the same bedtime routine since he was born. There haven't been any changes in our life that I would think might cause this problem. What are some other options for helping him wind down and sleep? Help! Thank you :)

My fiance has an 8 month old son named Aidyn Layne.. When we have a child, if it's a girl I want to name her Addyson Lynn. I love the name Addyson and Lynn is one of good friends' middle name, but would it be stupid to have the names go together if they are only half-siblings? Oh and my fiance's ex-wife wrote in a survey that if she ever had a girl she liked the name Addison!! What do ya'll think?

My 8 month old woke up with a fever tuesday morning and wasnt feeling well at all. She had about 10 ounces of milk and slept most of the day and had really loose stool. Tuesday morning her temperature was back to normal and she was being her normal self. But still she has very loose stool. I was looking at her gums today and they look slightly raised where the teeth are suppose to come in in the middle but i dont see the tooth itself. Did your baby have extremely loose stool when teething? Also, how long does it usually takes for the teeth to come in when a baby is experiencing all this? Is there anything I can do to help her stool not be so loose....its been coming all out of her diaper and im changing her clothes everytime she goes.
