Pregnancy & Parenting - 13 December 2006

I am pregnant with a second child. I had my first baby in Victoria, B.C. and ended up getting a c-section. The hospital was beautiful and the surgeon was really great and I have almost no scarring. The nurses were great too. Now I've had to move to Quebec, and have only heard bad things about the health care system. I am worried about getting a c-section done here or in Ontario. I know that Windsor, ON is bad too. Has anyone had really good experiences in Ontario or Quebec?

How likely is it for a woman to get pregnant on LOW birth control if the only contact she had with her mate was through two sheets of clothing (pre ejaculation) and a quick bruch against the area near the vagina (several minutes after emission?).

My friend Stephanie is like mad at me, and she thinks it's stupid to lke a guy that i've never talked to or don't even know anything about really. but for some reason, i like him. and i am "attracted" to him. i think he asked me out, but i don't really know. and i told her at the end of the day what had happened and she looked at me like she was annoyed and like she was having her mind set to "this is stupid and pointless". i hate that! i don't even tlak about him that much. so is it ok to like someone, (and possibly going out with,) that i have never talked to before?

once your baby is born do you have to put the name of the father on the birth certificate,if i dont wanna put it will hospital obligate you to do it or ask for explanation or anything?also if you dont put the name of the father can you change that later,for example if the father accepts later in kids life can he put his name on it?

I started my last period a week late, but earlier in that week after sex I bleed a little and then didn't start for another 4 or 5 days later...My partner never wore a condom or pulled out, and my period just wasn't the same as usuall...and last night I was pushing down on my stomach and I felt a round hard spot right below my bellybutton...I know this sounds stupid and most of you people are not doctors but I need some input on this before I jump to conclusions... Thanks

For the first time ever on Q&A I was truly shocked by some of the answers coming through, So I have decided to split the question between the US and the UK to try and find out how different our views are on this.

Oh yeah, and of course the Avatar isn't me, But remember he is somebodys son and she loves him......................... probably!!!

Im 17 weeks pregnant. I was always led to believe that the 2nd trimester was wonderful, when u feel great with loads of energy etc. However, this is not the case for me. I feel overwhelmed with the changes going on with my body, lonely, tired, moody and very tearful. i try to explain this to my partner, who has been great throughout the pregnancy, but he just doesn't understand and keeps saying is it something he has done? I try to explain its not about him, its about me and the changes but he really doesn't get it. did anyone else feel like this in 2nd trimester, does it go away? This is my first baby.

I have been TTC for 3 months. I am on cycle day 39, 16 DPO. What could cause a "LONG" luteal phase other than luteal cysts? My luteal phase is 14 days with irregular cycles. (My BBT charts look typical, and are very acurate along with EWCM, positive OPK, and cervical position @ CD 22.)
(I asked this question in 2 categories)

The neighborhood is fairly safe, you have no fenced in backyard.
I know a woman who did this once, and I think not.

The Department of Health warns against routine use of soy-based infant formulas because of the high content of phytoestrogens - compounds that mimic the action of the female hormone oestrogen. It is feared this could pose a risk to the long-term reproductive health of infants boys/girls i.e severe problems such as abnormal physical development, early puberty, conception, pregnancy, and cancers.
This has been known for several years though not wide public knowledge - infact some GPs still recommend soya as a suitable replacement for a child with milk allergy/intolerance!
Babies are usually allergic to both kinds of milk.
