Pregnancy & Parenting - 29 December 2006

I am weaning our 1 1/2 year old and at the same time trying to become prenant. I will be going in to see the dr shortly but I want to know what other mothers experienced in terms of tests (i.e. fertility, hormone etc).

One mother told me that it is by the time my daughter is 2, I will be very fertile. It seemed to take so long to conceive the first time (1 1/2 years). Should it take us longer because I am still lactating?

Thanks for your feedback.

Any thoughts or advice?

We both make between $25,000-$30,000 a year and live in Michigan. We want to have a baby soon and want to know how much money should be saved up so that we can take time off of work and for many of the kids' expenses.

I am 7 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I have a feeling it is a boy for some reason. I really don't care what sex the baby is as long as he or she is healthy. But the truth is if I could choose the sex it would be a girl, but I have a feeling its going to be a boy. I will be happy no matter what though!!

What about you?

How far along before you started thinking you knew the sex of your baby? Were you right?

I went to the doc today I'm a few days shy of 37 weeks. I'm 2 cm dilated, 90%effaced, and he said my baby is at station 0. I just didnt understand what the station zero meant. I tried asking but he was in a hurry he had to go deliver a baby (yeah like thats more important, haha j/k). All he said was she's low and in position.

My son is 4 and a half years old and I still have very visible stretch marks, and loose skin. Is there any lotions/creams that work well for reducing the appearance of the stretch marks, and at the same time possibly firming up the skin so the "baginess" goes away. Its not severe enough for any kind of surgery, but I would like to wear a bikini with pride this year!

Seems everytime the parent steps in she acts all annoyed and gives the silent treatment. Seems she can do no wrong. Is it possible to find a middle in all of this.

Techinically, it's only the woman who is pregnant so there's no 'we' in the pregnancy equation.
So why do couples call me up and say "we're pregnant"....I hate that...I work at a baby clothing store and I get that line all the time...
To whoever says that
I hope your baby turns into a cannibal while still in your womb and tears you up from the inside.

LOL!

I took my ovulation test today (clear blue) and it said I was most fertile today. So before work my husband and I had sex. He won't be home until later tonight, can I still have sex late tonight and have a great chance of getting pregnant?

My daughter is ready to start table foods, but I don't know what kinds of foods to start her on. Maybe thick-cut lunch meat, canned veggies, and soft fruits; but what else? I need examples from parents who have done this before please.
