My occupation is a teacher and I need ideas for my project. I need names for a type of story and I need opinions. But I'm kind of picky about it though.

Ok it's about twins (girl and boy) suddenly becoming orphans, trying to fit in the orphanage and finally finding a family but also need to fit in with them.

Boy twin: Tony_____ Bartlett (Miles when he gets adopted)
Girl twin: _________ Bartlett

For the family, I need names for parents, three sisters/daughters and four sons/brothers. First and middle names with the last name of Miles.

Names should be proper and normal and the girl twin's name should somehow match with her brother's.

1. When did you first realize you were pregnant?

2. What were some of the symptoms you experienced?

3. Did you have any food cravings or aversions?

4. Did you doctor require you to follow a special diet?

5. Before you were in labor, did you plan to have the baby naturally or with medical aids (like an epidural or pitocin)?

6. Were you able to follow your birth plan as you'd hoped?

7. How did you know you were in labor?

8. Tell me about your labor and delivery.

9. What would you do differently?

10. Overall, what did you like most about being pregnant? Least?

I am having irregular periods, cycles ranging from 29 to 42 days, i have been trying for 6 months now and haven't had any luck in falling pregnant.
My question is can a home ovulation test work even with irregular periods?

We have really narrowed things down and would just like a last opinion on the best sounding name. Marcus Connor iis just a name that creeps up sometimes.

I don't understand how any teen can have sex and not know about birth control. I was having sex at a young age and before I did it I went to planned parenthood and got on the pill and waited the 30 days for the pill to kick in. I am 30 years old and have 3 children. I know that I will be having the "birds and bees" conversation with all of my children . Are parents just not talking to there kids anymore or are these kids thinking they are somehow immune to getting pregnant because of the myth "it can't happen to me". This makes me so sad.

I'm 33 years old raising a 16 yr old, 4 year old, and a 2 year old. I was a teen mom myself. I have stressed the importance of being a teen mom and my daughter was fooling around with a 14 year old wanna be gangster. I advised my daughter to terminate her first pregnancy in November. Around January she ran away from home to her boyfriend's house. Now she's pregnant again. I choose not to be a part of this at the moment. My mom is constantly reminding me that she still is my daughter. I am aware of that. But why should I jeopardize my whole life to help support this child? I was nowhere around when my daughter was looking for a ride to her bf's to get pregnant. This pregnancy by the way, is planned. I am not shutting my daughter out, but grandma is always there to rescue her. She's not at all concerned about this pregnancy. All she knows is that she wants to have this baby and I've advised her to consider adoption. The boyfriend doesn't have no part in this as well. Need some advise.

Our local village midwife isn't happy that we have chosen a hospital 20 miles away and not the hospital where she works.

She is unhelpful and has made it clear her local ladies going to her hospital in Crewe come first when booking appointments with the midwide at our local doctor.

Are they on commission with the babies they help deliver?

Why do I gain so much. With my first one I thought it was because of water retention. I am usually a thin person and lost all my baby weight last time... so why do I gain so much when pregnant. I don't excerise hardly because I get so dizzy when pregnant (am even off of work due to not being able to do alot physically without almost fainting). But 33 lbs at week 22!!!! Is this normal??

I was breastfeeding exclusivly for 3 weeks but she didnt seem to ever get enough (because she always falls asleep after 5 min of nursing and also perhaps because I am under alot of stress) so I started giving her some bottles...2 or 3 per day. It seemed to really help her finally feel full for a few hrs at a time

Because 'breastfeeding on demand' is what we are used to...I dont know how much formula to give her (shes about 10 lbs now) per feeding or per day because I dont know how much breast milk she is actually getting.

Can she over stuff herself? Is 4 oz enough? is 6 oz too much? What is the best way to combine breast and bottle? Feed either/or at set times during the day? Offer breast and then bottle each feeding?

...its so confusing to know what to do...I dont want to overfeed her yet half the time I dont even know if its 'feeding time' yet??? 2 hrs 4 hrs? breast? bottle?

any advice?

I had unprotected sex the day after my period ended, about a week and a half ago. I took emergency contraception the next day. I know there is still a chance for pregnancy, and I haven't taken a test yet because it may be too early. Last night, I started to get a sever pain in my lower back, and I still have it today. Also, I am bleeding "down there" quite a bit as I would if I were on my period. I just ended my period about a week and a half ago, though, so I am worried.

2007-02-11 07:14:51 · 13 answers · asked by Ali 3 in Pregnancy

I had intercourse on Friday and I bled a little bit after, not much but a bit. Why?
I'm not a virgin, I'm a grown woman, so it wasn't my hymen breaking.
Also, it wasn't my period. First, my period came on January 26th and ended February 1st. So, I'm sure it wasn't my period also it was just a few tiny spots of blood but should I be concerned?
The sex was not painful and was quite enjoyable, I might add.
At the present time I don't have any medical insurance due to switching jobs so I cannot see a doctor at this time, I am just curious if I should be concerned. I am also Trying To Conceive, Friday was my Ovulation Day.
Please Help.

Well im a 16 yr old boy and I need some help on how to tell my parents that I like the same sex and how I feel deeply about being the opposite gender. I am feeling really depressed keeping my feelings in every day and it is getting really hard and some times I get suicide thoughts. I would like to know how to tell my parents and what to expect from telling them. Also parents that answer how would you feel about this if I was you son.
