What do you guys think about naming your children after your father if he is already passed....? I'm not sure if It'll be hard because it will be a daily reminder of my father being gone.. or if it will be like a tribute to him... any suggestions.....???

Over the holiday break my husband told me he had found a drawing in my sons sleep pants that was XXX rated and of homosexual content. I spoke to my son about it and he said it was about a kid at school. I went into how it is not appropriate behavior and not for school. I asked him if he had any questions of sexual nature. I went on to tell him he could talk to and I understand he has alot of new feelings and changes going on and that he can come to me. I made him aware of how much trouble he could get into at school. Then today I get a call saying that a picture was found in his desk by another student. He was sent to the office given detention and I was called. I am so mortified I don't know how to act. Does anyone have any advice?

I like the name Torin. I like it for one sex, but I'm not sure if it's more often used for the other sex. What sex do you think the name Torin goes better with? And do you know any Torins? Are they boys or girls? Thanks.

Does the doctor take a urine/blood sample and test it on the spot? or does the doctor refer you to the blood unit in hospital where they test you for all sorts of things and send the results back to the doctor?

I ovulated sometime between the 23 and 24 of december. I use a fertility monitor and have been tracking ovulation. I had telltale signs of ovualtion (i get cramping like clockwork). I had intercourse during the week, and on the 23rd and definitely the 25th (possibly the 24th too)

Well here's my question My period was due on January 5th or 6th (I was a day early last cycle which never happened before). Well it didn't come so I took a test on the 6th and it was negative. My period showed up on the 7th it was brown and then pink but pretty light. I usually wear tampons (3-5 a day) but really didn't need one. I'd say I used the equivalent to one regular tampon from Sunday morning to Monday morning. On Monday I had a little bit of blood, but less than a half a tampon the whole day. A test on the 4th was negative That was it
Four days prior to my "period", i noticed a tinged mucas like discharge 2x when I wiped. Still very tired, light backaches, slight tummy upset, extreme irritability

A kid (15 yrs old) asked my daughter if she wanted him to get her some "blacks". I don't know what that is? Is it a drug?

You must live a very boring life to want to do that. Thats what your mid-20 to mid-30s are for.....procreation(a good ten years to do it)? Enjoy your youth it only comes once!!!! Why do people want to grow up so fast.....do you live in a farm or third-world country? Maybe lack of opportunities?

Can we cash it? If so, do we need to bring in documentation showing who he is (we haven't gotten his social security card yet)? Or do we need to setup an account in his name?

Thanks!

Is it true that when you listen to the babies heart beat and its going really fast that it could be a girl? Or is that an old wives tale?

My husband and I had our first baby (a girl) in early August. We tried for two years to get pregnant, and were ecstatic to find out about her.

Now, she's five months old, and I am pregnant AGAIN (not on purpose!). I very much want to be happy, but I'm more afraid, than anything. I understand -- more than anyone -- that babies are a blessing, but I just am not prepared to be, uh, blessed again so soon. This means I'll have to go back to work six months early (in Canada we get a year mat leave) so that I can get enough hours at my job to take a second mat leave with the new baby. My husband (thank heavens!) is able to take paternity leave to watch our daughter.

My problem: the guilt about going back to work and leaving my baby girl, and the guilt about not being totally thrilled about Baby #2! I had always wanted 2 kids. Why am I so afraid? My husband is okay with it. Why can't I be more excited? What's wrong?

Has this happened to anybody else? Any advice?

Okay, so I have another question from my last one. Who thinks its fair that if we are pregnant and both the man and woman are working hard to make ends meet, but make too much according to a piece of paper and get denied for any medical? They dont look at anything such as monlthy bills, groceries, gas for cars to go to work, and whatever else we have to use to live! But there are people out there who choose not to work, they just pretend that their looking for a job and automatically get any assistance there is?

I am babysitting for a friend of mine. Her girl is 5 weeks old and my son is almost 10 months old. I know that a 5 week old can be pretty demanding, but her daughter sleeps a lot and is a good tempered baby. My son is a pretty good tempered baby as well and has a routine. There's really no problem, but I would like some tips on how to entertain both and still have some down time during the day. I am responsible for Andrea from 9:15 am to about 3:30ish pm. What are some good ways to balance out my day between the two and keep them both thriving?

I am five weeks pregnant and I am so worried all the time. I don't have many symptoms. I have been having alot of breast tenderness and nipple soreness, but today they don't hurt nearly as bad and that scares me. please tell me if this happened to you and is it normal? I guess I'm just looking for some reassurance! thanks in advance for serious and helpful answers..

I am thinking of taking my son to his first dental appointment. He is 2 1/2. He has a full set of teeth, and has never had any problems with them. I haven't seen any cavities, and we brush twice a day. Now is this age to early when there seem to be no problems, or should we take him anyway??????


Also, should we go with a ped. dentist or a regular dentist?? I have seen a lot of reviews, and have noticed that most people think that they are a joke.

Last Question... Anyone have any advice for if we do take him... like how to make it easier on ourselves.. Our son does not like to be held down or made to stay in one place for very long~ like most kids his age... If you can, please answer all three... Thanks to everyone.....
