Pregnancy & Parenting - 7 December 2006

Here's mine: One day, my friend came over. He was a boy and I had a crush on him. I was 9 and so was he. He beat me at connect 4. I was really mad! I started screamin'. I was just playin' though but my mom thought I was Throwing a fit! Having a tantrum. She told me to sit in the corner. I was embarrassed already. Then my brother which knew that I liked him saw me and pulled my pants down and ran away with them! He was 13. I was SO MAD!!! I chased him but he went outside where my mom was. I guess she thought I was going to the bathroom without her permission. She carried me over her shoulder and put me back in the corner. I was trying to tell her what happened but she wouldn't listen. As she was carrying me, my underwear fell off 2! She sat me back in the corner that seemed like hours! She said that I had 2 choices to get out of it. Choice 1: Stay like this for 20 more minutes. Choice 2: Wear nothing but a diper for the rest of the day. I chose #2. I wish I chose #1.

What do you think of the name Romani for a girl? Is it weird, because I have never heard of that as a name. What exactly is Romani... isn't is a language?

I heard the name off the video game, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. One of the little ranch girl's name was Romani, and she was a cute girl with long red hair. It definitely grew on me.

What do you guys think of it?

I am 25 weeks pregnant with first child. I walk about 5 days a week on treadmill for 30 mins. On days I don't do treadmill, I walk outside at my lunch break and then take the dog out later. Anyway I dont know why but whenever I have a pap smear done, I always get uncomfortable and sore in the cervix/vaginal area. It hurts and my Dr. always uses the smaller wand to go inside. She says that I close up my legs or don't open up enough for the big one to go in. I also mention to her that I may have intercourse with my husband every 10-12 days or so and the first time my hub tries to enter me, I get tensed up down there and it hurts for the first 2 minutes. It's like I am afraid of the first contact, but once it's in I am fine. Well if that's how bad I am with a pap smear and intercourse, then will it be very bad for my labor and delivery? My hub tells me even he thinks about this. Anyone know what to tell me? Is it true that in pregnancy my cervix and uterus open up or swell up

When I was nine years old, my mother had my baby sister, who I raised, pretty much by myself, because my mother needed to work. My brothers didn't really help at all, they changed her diaper once in a while. But it was pretty much me raising her, teaching her to use the potty, giving her baths, feeding her, and now she's six and in 1st grade. I'm 15 and I want my own baby. I told my best friend this, and she said that I'm insane and stupid and she'd kill me if I had one. Is it really that insane for me to want one?

I have heard that you can ovulate ten days after the first day of your period, and I also heard it could be twelve or fourteen. Which is true?

I went to bed- nothing unusual about that. I just could not get comfortable. I then started to have really sharp pains across my stomach in line with my bellybutton. Sitting up helped slightly, but it took them nearly half an hour to go away. I had the same pains 'down below' at my cervix. Also had 3-5 second long period type cramps at the bottom of my back for a short time too. The pressure was immense. Does anyone know what it was?

I was wondering if it is possible to get pregnant having unprotected sex one day before ovulation, and one day after ovulating? What are my chances?

I think my son is going through the "Terrible 2's" He throws a fit or cries if I tell him no. If I tell him no he screams bloody murder. He's not like this anywhere else but at home. I am at my wits end! He is 21 months old...what could be going on with him to make him act this way? Please tell me its just a phase....

My husband works as a salesman and travels about 1 week out of the month around the two surrounding states. I stay home full time with our 5 month old daughter ( a desicion we made together and both agreed upon), I keep the house very clean, I cook almost every night, my days aer spent taking care of our daughter and cleaning and cooking and washing clothes etc...I dont mind taking care of these things since thats what a housewife would typically do. However, sometimes I would like to take an hour or so to myself..sometimes not even that long, sometimes i just want to watch a tv show without having to get up and tend to the baby. My husband doesn't watch the baby except for once in a while so that I can take a shower, but as soon as she cries, he brings her to me. How much does a typical husband help with a baby? Am I asking too much to want him to rock her to sleep or watch her for a half hour or anything? whats reasonable? Im tired and frusterated....

I am 6 weeks pregnant and will be 8 at Christmas. We are spending it with my in-laws. I am so excited and really want to tell them but on other hand we do still think it's a bit early. But we will also have some trouble explaining why I won't take a single glass of wine over xmas and New Year. They might get suspicious and ask us. Any Suggestions??

My son is 10 months old and is a whiner, very fussy. The doctor said he is a normal healthy boy but my daughter did not whine like him. He even does it when i spoon feed him. The only time he is really happy is when he is watching sesame street beginnings DVD's...do you have a son that is like mine??

I've heard MANY MANY suggestions from people about how to help bring about labor. I am due tmrw (Dec.8th), and she is ready to go, if she doesn't come by next week they want to induce. SO far the things I have heard are Nipple stimulation, sex, spicy foods, walking, and some type of syrup (I've tried all of them except that syrup one which I am afraid is not safe) My dr has already scraped the membrains TWICE! And still nothing... she be-bops around in there as if she were doing martial arts!! Any ideas? or anyone with an experience that might pertain? Thanks! :)

I got pregnant and miscarried a few months ago. I am wanting to try to have another one. However my boyfriend says he wants to wait until we get a bigger place. We have the money to get a bigger place now but he says no cause he wants to save up more money first. I understand where he is coming from and I've been on birth control since right after I miscarried. I'm not going to stop taking the BC without him knowing cause that is wrong but he won't really even discuss it with me. It's like what he says goes and that's it. This is the only thing that he will not discuss with me. I just want him to see my point of view and see if we could compromise ... any suggestions?

P.S. We are planning to get married but I hate the word fiance
