Pregnancy & Parenting - 2 February 2007

I was just wondering how many of you (or people you know well) got pregnant while on the birth control pill. I know that taking antibiotics and missing pills messes it up but have any of you gotten pregnant while taking the pill on time and not missing any or being on antibiotics? Also, if someone does get pregnant while on the pill is there a higher risk of miscarriage? (I heard that taking a few pills before knowing that you're pregnant won't hurt the baby but I haven't heard about the miscarriage part). I'm just curious about this (slightly worried) and would like to know real life experiences not statistics!

TTC and I just had my FSH and Estradiol tested. Estradiol is 32, which dr. said is good, but my FSH level is 10.7, which dr. said is high. Anyone have any advice on what the next step will be? Clomid? Have to call dr. on MONDAY...so I get to stress all weekend. I'm going to be 39 next week and am totally depressed now.

My Grampa is my hero, but sadly, he was killed when I was in the third grade. He pretty much raised me and was "father" figure in my life until that point.

I want to honor him, by naming my child after him.

For a girl, I am thinking of Jelena or Alayna, because then we can call her Layney, which is close to Lenny,which is what everyone called him.

But....I was hoping to find a closer alternative to Leonard, possibly? The baby name sites I've been to aren't helpful in giving masculine and feminine versions of each other. :(

PLEASE HELP and thank you so much in advance.

Yesterday, I noticed that my vagina started itching, so I washed it. now, whenever I go to the bathroom, I wash it just to make sure that it stays as clean as possible. Anyways, that night- I looked at my vagina, and I noticed that I also had a very thick white discharge, and I know for a fact that it's not my normal. It's thick and clumpy..not slimy.
Anyways, I was planning to take a pregnancy test tomorrow because I've missed my period by a week. So, i was wondering whether or not using Monistat would effect the result of a pregnancy test?
Anyways, I'm most likely going to a planned parenthood sometime this week just to get it checked out to make sure.

Me and my boyfriend have been together for almost nine months. I am 10 days late on my period and I have all the signs of pregnancy. The deal is, my boyfriend is 24 years old and my parents used to let him stay the weekends with me. My mom knew for a while that we were having sex. One day she caughts us and thats when we weren't allowed to see each other until I turn 18. She has let us see each other since then on several occasions. Now my doctor has called and she wants me to come in and take a pregnancy test. I do not want him thrown in jail. He wants to be a father and wants to make things work if I am pregnant. I do not think it is right for a father to be took away from his child. But I don't know what my parents are going to do to him if I am. Help!! I don't know what I am going to do?

Okay, I have one for my friend. She wants to know if you were to have oral and he came and then had intercourse but he didn't come then could you still get pregnant? She doesn't want to get pregnant and they are in a serious, monogomous relationship. She also likes it better without a condom although she knows she needs to use them and she isn't on birth control and her period is also next week. What do you think?

So my older sister has two kids and their names are Nicole and Brooklyn. My brother has two kids, Ashley and Preston. My parents were asking me since i'm pregnant what I might name my baby. I want it to sound good with my nieces and nephews names. The doctor said probably I will have a girl! Any suggestions? Thanks!
