We do not have to have children. Most people have children because they forgot to use protection and decide to go with it, or they have some selfish reason for having them. I heard of one woman who, when her husband attempted to use a condom, cried out loud. Pretty psycotic if you ask me. Why don't we leave the having children to those who want children and can provide for them unselfishly?

My husband and I are going on our 4th baby. I'm due June 17th. I have 7, 3, and 2 year old. I have NEVER had Morning Sickness near this bad!! OMG my Breast are SOOO tender, WORSE than any of my pregnancies. I never had cravings until this pregnancy. Has anyone had the same problems on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th pregnancy?? My Dr. just put me on Reglan to help with nausea. Cause its hit me hard around 2am - 10am everyday. I have lost 15 lbs during this early pregnancy. I'm kinda scared it's going to hurt the baby. But, it's something I can't help. Give me some ideas or your experiences to help me figure out why I'm going through this now and never did before. It definitely leaves me in ????.
Thanx, Kendra

My husband and I talk about this a lot. Is it just us? We see horror stories on the news that happen to children: left in hot cars and died, molested or otherwise abused by the parent, locked in rooms to be starved to death, beaten and thrown into a dumpster, alcohol in a baby's bottle. The list goes on and on. We have two kids and can't imagine doing these things. For people applying to be foster or adoptive parents, there are miles of paperwork and endless interviews, tests, background and financial checks. Why then is there not the same care and consideration taken before people have biological children? And then there is this: the worst parents seem to be the most fertile, and the best would-be parents seem to be sterile/barren. Aside from the human rights stand-point and the fact that you can't possibly control the sexual conduct of all our citizens (USA), shouldn't people have to "apply" to be biological parents? Shouldn't the lives and rights of the unborn be considered?

How soon can I tell symptoms?
Ok me and my hubby are currently trying to concieve. Lately I have been tired and eating more than usual and having occasional headaches. i would be anywhere from 2 months - well umm today! How soon do symptoms appear? Could I be? I took a test last week and it was negative and my friend said it could still be too early.

I love the name Jonah because it's not that common, but I want to get other people's honest opinions. Some have told me that the first thing that they think of is the whale story from the bible. How about you? What are your thoughts/opinions? And what do you think about the whole name...

Jonah Nathaniel Reed

or we were considering, as an alternative...

Noah Gabriel Reed

What do you think? Thanks.

He woke up wet this morning but when I just called the babysitter she advised that he has been completely dry all day long and has not peed one time. I am worried.

That's stupid to spend that much money for a chair, especialy an infant seat.
I heard moms talking about training their babys to sit with them. That is silly to me. I taught my daughter to stand at 4 months and by 8 months she was walking.
Do people really love those silly chairs so their baby can sit?
Don't mean to sound b*tchy, don't be mean!

I feel too big to be 28 weeks. I've talked about this with both my OB/GYN and my doula and they say I'm fine - I just have a big baby, but it's beginning to get annoying - people off the street say, "Having the baby soon, huh?"

I was at a friend's bridal shower, in my new maternity dress, feeling very pretty. The bride-to-be's mom comes up to me and quietly says, "Please don't bring the baby to the wedding - I really don't want a four-week-old baby crying in the middle of the service." I was shocked - the wedding was in February, meaning she assumed I was due in January, when in fact, I'm due in March!

Here's a picture of me in the dress I wore to the shower:

Has anyone dealt with this? How? Personally, I'm proud of my belly, but other people's comments are really getting to be too much.

I know the six week period is for healing time and such, but if I had a vaginal delivery with no tearing, no episiotomy, and I feel great ( no pains or discomfort at 3 weeks) do I still have to wait the full six weeks?

It's already been three months since I had sex. Husband was weirded out by "hurting the baby".
