Pregnancy & Parenting - 30 January 2007

I go in for my first OBGYN appt for my second pregnancy. I had a appt earlier but that was just to confirm pregnancy

I forgot what they did during the first visit. Will they do an ultrasound or will that come on the next appt? I am about 71/2 weeks along at this point. I know they will probably not do doppler even though my daughters heartbeart could be heard at 9 weeks

Will they just do paperwork and test me again?

I am just curious about both sides to this arguement. I am 23 weeks pregnant with my first right now, so as of right now, I have no opinion. I guess as long as the mother covers herself, I do not see a problem with it, but like I said, I would like to hear the opposing side. Thanks !

My period is always the same lasts for around 7-10 days and is quite heavy. I was due on a few weeks ago. I was 8days late, i ook a preg test on the 6th day and it came negative, on the 8th day i then started bleeding like a normal period (quite heavy) for 3days, and all of a sudden i stopped. My period went from heavy to having stopped in a matter of 30mins.
Nothing happened for a about 12 hours then i started spotting lightly for 3days, and then nothing.

i have been having unprotected sex for 7months now as me and my finace are trying for a baby, but its hard as he only has a 4% chance.
I started bleeding on January 16th and stopped on the 19th, then spotted for 3days. Do you think its to early to test now?

the flu-vaccine? (I've already contacted the doctor and am waiting to get a call back) My six month has a cold since Saturday no fever just the sniffles. She had her six month check up yesterday and got all of her shots. This morning she had a fever, about 100.5-101. How long do the fevers usually last for if they are shot related? And wouldn't she have developed the fever closer to the time when she had the shots (11 am yesterday the fever peaked at 1pm today)

When your water breaks, how many hours do you have to give birth to the baby (naturally) before birth defects set in? I thought it was 24 hours but I am not sure. I have heard some women do not go to the hospital right when there water breaks and cause problems. Does anyone have a clue?

My ex boyfriend and also the father to my baby just told me that he wants me back but during our relationship he did me so many things that i dont think i will ever forgive him for that,i was truelly in love with him and it seemed he was not serious. The bad things that he has done are,he promised to marry me and he used my money to buy the wedding gown and a ring telling me that he will refund me and i thought i was helping him since i loved him and he never married me and has never refunded me. The second thing is that he cheated on me whilst i was pregnant and after having the baby,he didn't come to check on me,he saw his son when he was six months old. I took loan from my bank before i fell pregnant and he asked me to borrow him some and he has never payed me back and i he took clothes on my accounts and never helped me with payments, i lost interest on him and now he wants me back,what should i do,i tried to explain to him that i dont want him but he keeps on saying that everyday.

I had a miscarriage on Saturday and have been bleeding since then. Yesterday, it looked like it was starting to taper off, but then last night and this morning, it's heavy again, last night I was feeling a bit woozy, and tired. Is this normal?
I am going to see the doctor tomorrow...

Is there a creative way to break this news to an almost 6 year old?

Ultimately, it is our decision but the teacher has recommended we hold him back due to his fine and gross motor skills. As far as reading and math, he is up to speed on his schoolwork. He is the youngest in the class but will be heartbroken if his friends move on and he doesn't. Any suggestions to help me make an educated decision?

I have asked this question once already but it was in the middle of the night so I'm hoping for more answers now. Thanks for any input.

I know there are some hospitals in bigger cities that honor unprepared mothers by taking in their babies if the mother abandons them there. Does anyone know if there are adoption programs at these hospitals? Also, is adoption always insanely expensive? About how much?

I know someone who claims that her baby was potty trained at 9 months. I find this very hard to believe. My baby is 10 months and I can't even imagine my baby being potty trained.

Just wondering- What is the youngest you've heard of a baby being potty trained??

I had a son almost 4 months ago with a hard labour - 45 hours and 4.5 pushing. The tear was bad and is still sore in the area. Intercourse is painfull and it feels like I was stitched up too much...anyone else had this problem? Seems like nothing is right down there anymore. Doc says I have a permanant hemerhoid and I have a large flap of skin as well. Seems like the whole stitching went bad...any ideas?

my son is in 5th grade and goes to a school that is majority is mexican and black kids. my son is half mexican and white but looks more white. some kids are teasing him calling him milk. " So my question is why is it alright for a black or mexican kid to call him this, If my kid was to call them chocolate milk or coffee he would probably suspended for being a racist.. so why is this ,it doesnt seem fair

I just got out of a doctors appoinment. My next appointment, I will have the test done for GBS (Group B Streptococcal Disease) I've read the print out they gave me on it and just read something distrubing about it. It says possible complications are Neurologic problems may include sight or hearing loss and mentel retardation or even death! That worries me for some reason. Although it also says that 1 in 4000 chance of delivering a baby with GBS disease if antibiotics are given are not likely but, still. They are checking me for this next week. I'm already worried about the whole birth thing. What if something happens?? I don't know. I'm a worry-wart anyways and just need some advice. I've tried to calm down and keep my stress under level or whatever but, reading that.. pushed it over the edge. I need some help! thanks! Has anyone ever gone thru GBS with their baby? what happened? Are they fine now?
