I need a middle name to go with it. I was gonna go with Lyric but we (my husband and I decided against that) we want something that's has to do with music or song or even life. Any suggestions and please what do you think of the name Aspen.

After reading tons of "am I pregnant" questions I feel sort of silly posting this question, but let me explain. I took a HPT today and it was the store brand version of EPT...the control line was very clear and visible about 30 seconds into the test; the second test line (that shows up if you are pregnant) didn't show for over a minute, but I went to check on the test about ten minutes later, and there was an extremely faint positive line showing; so faint however, that I wonder if it was a misread, because it does say on the pkg that after ten minutes any reading is "invalid." So have any of you had a test result like that and were indeed pregnant? I should add that I have felt the low-level queasiness and fatigue that I felt with my first pregnancy, but that could also be any number of things, like a lack of iron in my diet or not enough exercise. What are your thoughts; other women out there? What's the next logical step? Take another test? Thanks. :)

I just started the Seasonale pill where I dont get my period but only 4 times a year.. I began taking the pill and was on it for only 2 days when I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend but he withdrew before he ejaculated. If I were to get pregnant, how would I be able to tell if I was pregnant if I am not supposed to be getting a monthly period on the Seasonale pill anyway?

Every morning I wake up to find my panties kind of wet. The thing is that I only notice this in the morning right when I wake up...the rest of the day I'm completely dry. It was okay at first, but lately there's definitely been an increase. I still have Braxton Hicks contractions; however, just SOMETIMES they get a little painful at night. Does any of this sound normal? or should I call the doc right away? Please help. Thanks.

Serious answers only please!

My 20 month old recently started climbling out of his crib, so I took the rail off. I was putting the baby gate in front of his door to keep him in his room at night (we have stairs), but he began climbing over that as well. My only option was to lock him in his room (his room is baby-proof).

Every night when I put him to bed, we have a routine. He stays in bed as long as I am in the room, but once I leave, he gets out and cries (briefly) at the door. Then he falls asleep in front of the door and that's where he sleeps ALL NIGHT--no blanket, no pillow.

Moving him into his bed once he is asleep is not an option because I would awaken him by trying to open the door, and I would do nothing but disturb his sleep, as I'm sure he'd lay back down in front of the door.

Any thoughts on how to keep him tucked in his bed for sleeping? I feel terribly guilty allowing him to sleep on the cold, scratchy floor
:(

First off, let me say in my wife's defense that she never buys clothes and she is very good with money. We have plenty of money to spend on clothes, but I am just wonder if she spent too much on clothes that she will wear only for 9 months.

My wife bought $200 worth of used and new maternity clothes. She bought so many shirts, pants, skirts and tank tops that they cover the entire bed. She said all she needs to buy now are bras.

Did she spend too much on all her clothes? Did I get off cheap? Her reason for spending $200 was that she works so she can't wear sweats all day unless she quits her job.

I gave birth on 8/25/2006 and I feel terrible I am very moody, I sleep all day while the kids are at school its like a have an exterme lack of motivation to anything. I need a job and I know this but I am too lazy to go out and get one. My kids Christmas is definetly not going to be like the ones they're used to. I feel awful when I do try to get some rest at night I wind up waking up and staying up all night til the wee hours of the morning. I think I am depressed but I am not sure. The littlest things irritate me my kids get on my nerves so I snap at them it like I dont have patience and thats not me. I also hate the rundown feeling that I have no energy at all this not me I want to get back to my normal self so me and my children can be happy. I hate the person that I am right now and I so desperately want to change for the better for the children because they deserve more than what I am giving right now I am just an overwhelmed single mom what do I do?

I'm sure this is crazy, but I was just wondering if this was possible at all? I would like to, but like I said, its been 2 months since I had my baby. I breastfed him in the hosp and that was it. I had breastfed my daughter before that for a bit and got Mastitis and a whole bunch of infections and wound up in the hosp. So when my nipples starting bleeding with my son while at the hosp I just freaked out and stopped. My milk has been gone for a month now. I'm sure you can't. But wish there was a way. ANyone know of anything? And feel free to call me crazy to even think there was a way to get this back. I just wish I would've continued... Thanks!

When i went for my 6 week check-up, after the birth of my first child i started birth control, the dr. said start on a sunday, so i did that was 3 1/2 weeks ago the day i started the pill i also started my period ( the dr. if this happens just keep taking the pill) well it hasn't stopped. Sunday i started the "sugar" pills so i guess i should have my period but i have had it no-stop for 3 1/2 weeks is this my body's way of "getting back to normal"? or is there something wrong?

Up until now i was going to go into hospital, but after all the MRSA scares Im seriously tempted to opt for a midwife led unit water birth. Has anyone out there had their baby in such a unit? what was your experience like? did u regret it? were u ok with no epidural etc? Only experienced ladies to answer pls
