Pregnancy & Parenting - 29 January 2007

I'm 38 weeks pregnant and have been taking Lovenox shots since I was 10 weeks along. Lately when I stick the shot in my skin, a drop or so of blood goes up the needle into the medicine I am putting into me.I don't know if this is something to be concerned about.I just keep putting the medicine in with my blood in it.Does anyone know if I should do that or not?

So, my husband has been cleaning out the litter box since we found out that I am pregnant (to his great joy). He is going away for 5 days at the end of this week, and I figured if I am careful (and wear disposable gloves, which we already bought) that it would be okay for me to clean out the litterbox for that short time. Our cats are exclusively indoor too, which would probably rule out toxoplasmosis anyway. I think this is our only option considering that 1 of our cats refuses to use disposable litter boxes. But now, of course, I am worried about it. Any ideas? And if you think it is funny to reply "just get rid of the cats," that has been said before on yahoo answers and is completely unoriginal, so serious answers only, please.

Last week I took a pregnancy test and it was positive. Just to be sure I took a second pregnancy test on Saturday, it too was positive. Yesterday, Sunday, I began bleeding normally as tho I have my period....what is going on? I planned on going to a doctor this morning but because I seem to have a period, I figured it would be a waste.

How long before trying to concieve a child should I stop smoking marijuana? I only smoke occasionally, and am by no means chronic. Please do not attempt to chastise me for my use of marijuana, helpful answers only please.

Firstly, I realize this question is likely asked very often on here. I've browsed through a lot of past questions and there seems to be many conflicting answers. And there might be for this question, too.

I am kind of clueless when it comes to the actual process of getting pregnant and how best to increase chances of conception. I'm using cyclebeads to track my ovulation, and my partner and I have had unprotected sex quite often for the past few days. We started trying about a week after my last period started. I have very, very regular periods. If an egg got fertilized, how long does it take to "implant?" When should I start feeling symptoms if I truly have conceived?

About a year ago he was sidetracked, joined a bad crowd. One day he messed up, drank and helped put graffiti on a wall. My hubby was on a trip and I had to decide what to do. I was scared and gave him a harsh punishment, he was grounded for 2 months and had to clean walls to pay for the damage. Actually, he worked much more than cleaning the wall he stained. He got kinda humiliated and resentful. He left that crowd and is a great boy, everything I could want. But extremely resentful, cause he says he didnt deserve a so harsh punishment, cleaning one wall would be enough, and before the punishment he already regreted what he did. My husband and I did our best to get him back, but he's like a stranger, especially with me. He' been like that for more than a year and it doesnt seem he'll change. It's extremely hurtful, before that thing he was a bit sidetracked but very affectionated w/ me, used to treat me w/ much love. Now, he's cold as ice, I really miss that lovig boy he used to be.

My husband and I are trying to conceive, my last period was on Jan 8th and my cycles are about 32-35 days...we had sex on Jan. 20th, 25th and 27th and plan to today (the 29th), the last 2 days i have noticed an increase of vaginal discharge (clear egg-white like) mostly when i go to the bathroom, it comes out long, and thick string like... but also periodically throughout the day it comes out a little (too much info, i know, sorry). I know im probably around the time of ovulation (which is why we have been trying more now) but im wondering if this could be a sign of me being pregnant?? I have also had a lower abdominal feeling that I never had before (which could be anxiety but could maybe be from everything going on in my uterus)?? Its to early for me to test, i just want to know if anyone else had this before and if you ended up being pregnant or what, because we really want a baby and want more than anything to be pregnant.

My son and his little no good friends went up to the mall and stole an outfit!! I was outraged. I have raised my son better then that, and I give him everything that he asks for. I will not put up with a stealing in my home. I told my son that since he thinks he is big and bad enough to go up to the mall stealing, he is going to be big and bad enough to return it butt naked.
I don't care if it is 25 degrees here in Michigan, nor do I care if the mall is 5 miles away. My son needs to learn a lesson. Why shouldn't I make my son walk back to the mall naked to return the outfit that he stole??

Did anyone sleep on their stomach while pregnant and if so, up until what point?

Does it affect the baby at say, 4 months and onwards, (or at any stage)?

My girlfriend of one year has a one bedroom apartment, and she shares her bedroom with her four year old daughter. There are two beds in the bedroom: her daughter sleeps in one bed and she sleeps in the other. Now, lately, I have been spending the night a lot at my girlfriends house lately. I sleep either in my girlfriend's bed, or on the floor. My girlfriend only has a twin bed, so sometimes, it's hard to share a bed with her. Let me just say that there is no hanky panky going on when her daughter is present. My girlfriend and I just sleep together CLOTHED. If the father finds out about me sleeping in the same room as his daughter, can I or my girlfriend get into trouble. I would never want to jeopardize the custody she has with her child. I have met the father a couple of times and he is an okay guy. He knows that I slept over one time when my girlfriend was extremely sick, and he didn't mind. I also don't want to confuse the 4 year old.

My daughter is currently in 6th grade. She has become quite the rebel and is taking no interest in school work at all. She is making Ds and Fs and she doesnt seem to be worried about the outcome. Where do I begin? Do I begin? Should I start now or wait till 7th grade......if she makes it that far.
She is a bright kid. Peer pressure has overwhelmed her and she is more interested in Friends than school. I realize this is normal but she has no balance with the two. her computer had been shut down.....she WAS a MySpace junkie, her t.v. is now in my room as well her stereo. And her cell phone i sonly given to her when I leave the house to go to the gym.
Thanks for your help...........

Scared

He's sitting over there
But I don't know what to say
Should I tell him "Jesus Loves You"
Or can it wait another day

Why am I so scared to tell what I believe
Scared of telling others of what
God has done for me
I shouldn't be afraid
The Lord has set me free
Why am I so scared?
Jesus, please help me

I hear on the news
Another suicide
What possesses people to want to take
Their own lives?
I listen for the name,
And almost faint as I hear,
It was that kid that I was ashamed to
Talk to, I was so near

Why am I so scared to tell what I believe
Scared of telling others of what
God has done for me
I shouldn't be afraid
The Lord has set me free
Why am I so scared?
Jesus, please help me

So many people
Sick and dying
They don't know about
My God, who holds
All the tears they're crying

I can't afford to be scared
I have to tell what I believe
All God's done for me
I am not afraid
The Lord has set me free
I am not scared
Jesus, use me
