I am 16 weeks pregnant and just found out that my medical insurance I have does not cover me with prenatal.. they told me the wait to get on prenatal is a year! (which is obviously not going to helpe me). I tried other insurance companies and they are saying its a pre-exsiting condition! I need help, should I go to the state.. and see if they have anything to give me? I don't mind paying a month for the insurance, i just need to find some!
also my location is arizona!

My wife and I are fighting in who should name the baby, I think since the baby is the 1st one, I'm the 1 who could give it a name.

I am a stay at home father, by choice. I left a very good job, albeit one that I was not terribly happy with, to raise my two young sons while my wife pursued her career. Also I am taking this opportunity to further my education.
When I tell people that I stay at home they immediately think that I lost my job or that I am lazy and am making my wife support me. Why do people jump to such conclusions?

I am pregnant and happily having my baby......BUT.......Just needing to ask...what is the fad with abortion? i think it is wrong and inhumane!!!!! Look at this web page... www.mttu.com and watch the video? do you believe in abortion? its a BABY not a CHOICE. if you dont want it, keep your damn legs closed. if you have had or have thought about having one, you might as well go to prison! its murder!!!! and if you say its not, then why when someone murders a woman who is pregnant, they charge them with double homicide? EXACTLY!! cause its MURDER!!! DONT DO IT! GIVE THE BABY A LIFE. YOU GOT ONE! so...... where do you stand? are you or would you be a mother or a murderer???

Just read this:

"Any vaginal bleeding other than spotting during early pregnancy is considered a threatened miscarriage..."
(http://www.emedicinehealth.com/threatened_miscarriage/article_em.htm)

in somebody else's answer, and -- ?

What is 'bleeding other than spotting'? How's that differentiated?

My children and I were setting goals to achieve in this new year. I ended up saying how they wanted to try "keeping a diary" etc. My children are 11yrs and 8yrs. How do I encourage them to set a goal without forcing or being to "mummy" about it.?

MY son is 2y 7mth he attends day nursery 3 afternoons per week he's always been quite good and the staff say he's really a pleasure. The past 2 months an autistic child has attended who is quite demanding and has some terrible displays of behaviour and demands, screaming, shouting and needing attention. I know children need intergrating and if the shoe was on the other foot I may feel different. My son is now copying this particularily behaviour at home or when out! I pay £250 per month for this and feel my son is at a very influential age. We sorted him for the week between Christmas but 2 days back and he's the same, high pitch scream demands. I do lots of activities with him at home. I'm thinking of moving his nursery because of this but he's been there since 7mth, his displays are all what I have witnessed from this child when I drop him off so it must be constant all day.
Any advice please?

maternity clothes do not lie right because the bump is low and the trousers sit too low that the legs trail the ground and gusset is low too. Also it is sometimes takes ages to pee because the bladder is having pressure on it. Is there anything I can do to shift the baby, upwards Im six months?
