Pregnancy & Parenting - 7 December 2006

twenty years old and pregnant. Live with my boyfriend. I don't depend on my mom or his mom we just depend on each other. During my dr appts i feel like my mid wife treats me like i am a dumb *** or like i am to young to be having a baby. all in all i was just wondering is twenty the wrong age to have a baby at. fifteen weeks pregnant.

I have been having unprotected sex with my boyfriend since we got back together in september. I suppose I am trying! I'm 24 and he is 25. When we were together over a year ago I was living with him for 6months and nothing. we have sex regular, my period was a week early and I took a clear blue test after my period had finished, it was negative. Should i take another one? Should I worry?

First baby and I thought you began to lactate before the baby was born or is it right after birth?

My daughter who is 10 came home today and said her school was collecting donations for a crisis nursery for children 5 and under. She gathered up all her money and went to the store and bought almost $40.00 of baby items to donate. The money she spent was money she had been saving for some toy she wanted. I am so proud of her that she would think of others before herself. Afterwards she told me she felt really good because she was able to get them some things.

I have 3 kids: 5, 2 and 1 and they all still believe, however, some of our friends think that kids should know the gifts come from the parents as they work hard to buy them stuff and not Santa. I hope that my kids believe as long as they can - do you agree?

How does sexuality or violence affect a child? Have any young brothers/sisters/cousins that are somehow affected by video games? positively or negatively.

I am 14 weeks pregnant with my second child and my bump is quite noticable. I had to really squeeze into my jeans and my tummy shows at the bottom of my tops, yet my maternity jeans are a tiny bit too big. Would it be ok for me to wear maternity clothes yet? Would people think it was funny or weird? When did you start wearing maternity clothes?

He is 13 months old and I feel he is sick a lot! I'm into homeopathy type remedies for things and I'm a germaphob, so I have no idea why he gets sick so often. For instance he has chronic ear infections.
Can I use garlic drops in his ears (or has anyone tried this?)
Can I give him extra vit c?

Can he take acidophilus?....etc.?

I have this bathtub for my 3 month old daughter:

http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=cm_reviews_dp_seemore/601-7001799-6193759?ie=UTF8&coliid=&frombrowse=1&alt%5Fview=custReviews&asin=B0000D9SRG#R2UG23LT2DE6RM

The problem is that she is getting so long that she kicks the end of the tub and when she does that she shoves herself up and nearly bangs her head on the other end. Does anyone have any other tubs that work really well for a baby this age? She can't sit up on her own yet so I can't put her in anything other than a baby tub. If you have a favorite one could you list the brand and maybe where you got it or a link to it so I can take a look?

Thanks in advance for your help :)

I've always used orthotricyclen, but now I'm going to begin using Nuvaring at the end of the month.
Any info/advice would be appreciated.

Also, I'm very petite, will I have any issues with it moving down and "protruding" out of my vaginal opening at all?

My new baby is 2 weeks old. My next appointment with my OB/GYN is in 4 more weeks. At this appt, she wants to talk about birth control. So far I cannot decide on a method. I don't want to use any hormones, so no pills, patches or shots. My husband and I both dislike barrier methods, so no condoms or diaphragms. I cannot stand gels or douches, no spermicide or suchlike... The intrauterine device is OUT.

We actually want to have more children, LOTS more, we don't mind how soon. I'm young, healthy and fertile. I've already bounced back from pregnancy and a natural delivery. I'm breastfeeding my baby.

HOW do I politely tell my OB that I am not really able to decide on a method of birth control? Or, should I say I'm going to try something like "the rythm method" or "the Billings method" etc. etc., should I just lie and say we're using condoms? Then in two months "Oops, the contraception failed?"

I mean, I want another baby... Shouldn't have to justify it to the doc?

For some reason I love the smell of these toilet bowl fresheners here at work. And I have to smell the original pine sol scent daily. Is that weird or what?

He uses the bathroom regularly for pee pee but will not poop. He does not do it in public, only at home. We have tried giving him treats, sitting him there at regular times, cheering for him, reading to him. It's almost like he's scared to sit on it.
