I am 9 weeks along and have been in maternity clothes for 2 weeks of that. (This is my 4th child) I have been looking like I am 5 months along. All of a sudden, I wake up this morning and my stomach looks like I am 3 months pregnant. My maternity jeans are too loose and almost falling off me! I don't know what to think of this. I have not had any cramping or bleeding, so I don't think I have miscarried. Has this ever happened to any of you? What do you make of it?

My first was traumatic for me. I had a terribly painful labor that lasted for 37 hours, pushed for five before they used the forceps, had to have a blood transfusion, and had AWFUL postpartum depression and anxiety when it was all said and done.

Obviously, it was bad enough to where I didn't want to do it for eight more years. I'm terrified that this time is going to be just as bad as the last time, and due to the fact that I almost died with my first born, I'm afraid that it may happen for real this time.

I've talked to my doctor about it, and he doesn't seem worried at all about it, but I am. The closer that it gets to time, the more scared I am becoming.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to help me enjoy the rest of this pregnancy?

Sometimes my 15 week old baby boy breaks off from feeding and starts smiling and 'chatting' into space - it's just like someone is standing over him and he's communicating with them. Another mother told me that up to a certain age, children can see 'spirit' people around them. I'm inclined to dismiss this as complete rubbish, but does anyone out there think there's anything in it? Thanks!

I cannot give last name obviously.. I know it matters and it adds to the confusion, it starts with an S unfortunately. So Harrison goes best but I no longer like it... Unless I have a little red head I just don't like Harry.. Harry is kind of ugly sounding. I like Marcus and Samuel.. It is really down to these two.. Cole might be a middle name, but the more I have played with this here the less I like it now. Very interesting how your taste changes. Amazingly my daughters name was decided in minutes!!! heheheheh

Well two postitive pregnancy tests this morning confirmed that I am pregnant with our second child. I want to write a message on a shirt that I will put on my son for my husband to see when he comes home.. now I am not sure what to put on it... I dont just want to say "I am going to be a big brother" I find tat a bit boring and overused. Something a bit different.

Please give me ideas on good words... if you have other ideas besides the shirt, please tell me :)

Thanks

My son will most likely be a red head or have black hair. Eyes will be brown. Do you picture Samuel as a blonde.. Marcus I picture with jet black hair. I need a backup in case he is redheaded ...

Ok, if I have a girl I thought about the name, Adria. If it was a boy, we thought of the names Slade or Cragen. What do u think?

He has rarely spit up in the past and all of a sudden no matter what we feed him or how much we give him he continually spits up alot. We have tried to thicken up his formula and that doesnt work, we have tried giving him less formula and he just seems to get angry because he isnt full. When we give him cereal at night he seems to be content and no spitting up with the cereal it just seems that the formula he cant keep down, is there any reason that could be causing this, please help!!

Hey guys,
Thanks for your responses. I took a digital preg test and was negative - so do you think the line i saw on the reg one was nothing? I guess i need to wait a few days and see what happens.
Arg - i hate not knowing whats going on.

I hate abortion!!! Yeah so people say that it is the woman's body and she can do what she wants with it but what about the baby? Yeah, i know it's a fetus but it is alive it is not a bunch of cells! If you're thinking that the baby might be born into a bad situation and won't have enough love when it is adopted, then you're wrong! My mom's friend adopted three kids and still wants more but she can't have them! over a million babies are killed a day and over 60,000,000 parents want to adopt! OMG!!! just stop abortion before the murder spreads to you and me.

It is a book in the bible. It is a bible name. Perhaps people cannot pronounce it correctly and deemed it as different but it is not.
I do not understand why people would call this name dumb to the point she removed her question. Let everyone not forget that this forum is used by people of many different creeds, ethnicities and religious backgrounds. What you deem to be "standard American" names are not the only names in the world! By her post it sounded like she put alot of thought into those names and to have it belittled is mind boggling. What would the world be like if we were all the same? Recongnizing everyones differences starts with "US" teaching our kids. I thought this forum was for parents. If we worry what others think and conform to other people standards then how can we change for the better? How can you teach your kids to rise above that sort of stupidity if you act stupid yourself? I will teach my kids to respect all no matter how different.

I am 27 wks pregnant and i had to do that drink test yesterday. My doctor called me this morning and said that my test was at 257 and it is supposed to be at least 130. When i had my frist child i tested at 175 and had to do the three hour test and everything was fine. I am scared i have heard bad things about this and i don't want it. I also was thinking that maybe my score was so high was because i had cheesecake the night before or not. Please help if you can

In your opinion, are there negative and positive effects on leaving very far from your parents?
If yes...which ones?

i have to babysit 3 girls tom. fro 9-5 they are 10,5, and 2 ... i was wondering of some activities i could do with them to keep them busy...? i have just about run out of ideas! nothing too messy because i want an easy clean up..
i might have to babysit their two cousins.. boys- 6 and 3.. if i had them [even though i doubt it] what could i do with them and the girls...? the 3 year old and 2 year old might not have the attention span, so i dont worry about them, its the older kids..
thanks sooooo much!
