Pregnancy & Parenting - 16 January 2007

It's getting OUT OF CONTROL. I was drinking ginger ale in a wine glass at a company party and someone freaked out on me..thinking it was white wine....I went to my parents house and had gorgnzola on a burger and brother's girlfriend freaked out on me ( though my doctor said it was fine in moderation) and I asked my friend and her boyfriend to come bowling with me and my husband and her response was " Ashley, you shouldn't be bowling, it's not safe, too much weight for you to pick up"....EVERYONE seems to think they know what's best for me and I can't stand it, ESP when they haven't been pregnant themselves...they think because they've had a few friends that are pregnant, they know everything there is to know....Wine, Deli meats, hygiene etc.etc.etc. If my husband tells me to "go for a walk" or "take a nap" again, I'm changing the locks...

How did you MOMS deal with it? WHat do I say? "actually, you're wrong" - sorry to vent....

I am dissapointed to find out that my wife is having a girl..I saw myself having a first born son. But I will love the little girl of course. I was wondering what everyone else hoped for? Was anyone initially dissapointed?

Hello, I had unprotected sex like 6 weeks ago. I had a 6 day ranging from heavy to light period a week after.Then, after my perioud i started to get stomach cramps (pains on both sides and in the middle). I am currently on my period again (2nd time) and its lasted 3 days so far and it seems regular but i still have stomach cramps that dont seem quite like period cramps. MY breasts are kinda tender. Can i be pregnant?

in class my teacher made an alien bug model out of marshmallows (yeah, i know, weird). She gave the boy one a penis with a tiny little marshmallow. I know this might soung stupid but do actual insects have sex or do they lay eggs or what?

Is 38 too old to have a baby for the 3rd time? I have three children age 18, 12 & 1. Recently a few people have just assumed that I am the baby's grandparent. Talk about being embarrassed!!
I think they just assumed because I don't think I look old...have no wrinkles, am slim, 5'11", dress stylish etc. Has anyone out there had similar experiences and what are the opinions out there about older women having babies?

I am 37 Weeks pregnant and everything I have read about labor says that if you have contractions and walk they should get stronger my question is what if your contractions start when ever you get up to walk or to use restroom is that labor or just cramps?

My friend told me that his sister started when her son was five months. My friend has been known to lie, and I can't imagine how this could be possible.
So, if anyone has done this with there child please tell me how you did this or tell me if this is completely impossible.

I thought that at the age of 1 it was ok. But I went to my sons 12 month appointment and he said it is the only thing that he still can not have. We changed the subject so quickly I forgot to ask when he can have it. So does anyone know when it is really safe to give my son peanut butter?

I was on depo for 2 years and had last shot Jan 2006, i hear it takes a while for your periods to be normal, but they were up until November and then they went crazy again. We have been ttc since November trying not to stress too much. I have been working 12 hr work shifts possibly pregnant, or just too much work?

I have a friend who had baby two moths ago. She said her baby grow 5 inches in two moths. I told her that i don't belive her and she is mad at me for telling her that. Honestly her baby didn't seems big to me. She used to lie a lot and make things biger and sometimes it bothers me when she said something unreal and untrue that i can't stand and listen her i got to tell her that she is not right..and now she is mad at me...Did i do right thing or......???
