Yesterday morning when I woke up i noticed lite pink spotting! After going all day it never came back. I was due for my period yesterday. Later that afternoon i bought i pregancy test and it came back negative. After a little while i had intercourse where i bled a little. I am very regular and always on time. I woke up this morning still no period and took another test and said negative! If i am pregnant i would only be 3 weeks. Could implantation happen that far along?

When i first started reading th Y!A Baby Names questions on a regular basis, I noticed there was an amazing amount of soon to be parents looking for and suggesting strange, unique and different names. Wether it was a "normal" name with a different spelling, or a name that someone had created. Over the past 6 months I've noticed a trend with more parents commenting on not liking unique names and wanting to stay traditional. For my child, I've chosen a traditional name, but not well used because I don't want confusion in class or questions like " How do you spell/pronounce that?".

My question is, which do you prefer? Traditional or unique? Normal name with different spelling or something completly different? Also, why do you prefer one over the other?

I'm not judging anyone on their opinion nor will I pick the best answer on my own views. I'm just trying to satisfy my own curiosity. :)

does anyone believe that we have to face facts and realise that all this pampering round kids is causing the unruly children we have today.
i smacked my three children. on the hand or on their bottom. i did not use anything but my hand. when they were smacked they didn't do it again
it taught them respect......not fear!!!!!....
i now have three well adjusted adult children who have done great at school, hold down responsible jobs and have kids of their own.
they smack their children when they are naughty and i am proud to say i have been told what well behaved and polite grand children i have. they do great at school and are outgoing and polite
smacking your kids is not abuse. using belts and sticks is.
so maybe before you start stabbing at me have a look at the same question about a year ago on here and see how many people get the thumbs down.....its the molly coddling brigade.

Please help?...?
I'm 17 years old and everything in my life is f*cked up.

When I was 14 I was in a car crash and I was told I would never walk again. I can walk but I have permanent injuries and I can't go and do anything I enjoy or play any sports anymore.

When I was 15 I was sexually abuse and raped by a friend of mine. Then 6months later I was sexually abused again by a family friend.

I've moved around so much and been to so many different schools. I only have one true friend and i'm pushing him away.

My parents were divorced when I was 3 and my mum told my Dad he wasn't allowed to see my brother or I again. My mother re-married and abusive gambler/alcoholic and my mum now emotionally abuses me.

I do really well at school, that's all I have. Everyone thinks I can handle my life fine but I can't.

I've lost many friends to suicide and not been there to say goodbye.

I have all these secrets and no one to tell them to. My family have such high expectations of me too.

What can I do?

Just curious... how would you react if your boyfriend of a year tells you his past girlfriends (more than one) have had abortions, when it was his child?

Not in terms of the fact it was an abortion... but just more than one and that he only told you after a year of being together, and ages of being really close

i have a 6 1/2 wk old son and im having a bit of a problem. no matter what time i feed him at and no matter what i do, he wont fall asleep until 2 am every night. is there any way of getting him to fall asleep earlier? its been this way for a couple of weeks so he's pretty much on that schedule. twice he's slept thru from 2 am til 8 am but normally hes up again at 5 am to eat. right now hes on a feeding schedule where he'll eat around 9 pm, then again at 12 am and then he's awake for minimum 2 hrs, even if i try to keep him awake during the day which makes it tough because i get between 2 and 3 hrs sleep until his next feeding, am awake with him for about an hour doing that and then have to wake up an hour later to drive my husband to work (he could drive himself but then i'd be car-less all day.. he works at least 12 hrs a day) and by the time we get home he's ready for another feeding.. he later falls asleep around 9-10 am for a few hours... how can i get him to fall asleep earlier?

So many people have criticized me for my parenting style. But my family does not. My daughters know that when they misbehave, they going over mom's lap for a spanking. As for ages, I don't think 14 is too old for a spanking. I even asked my daughter, I sat down and asked her if I should switch to grounding rather than spanking and she said no. I asked her if she was embarrassed that she got spanked and she said that some of her friends get spanked also and it didn't bother her much that she has to lie across my lap. Now, bare bottom spanking is controversial, I agree, so I rarely do it, but it works for my two older daughters and afterward, they're not embarrassed, just hurting a little bit (ha ha). Does anyone else support spanking? Am I the only one?

We haven't decided if we want Graden as a middle or first name. My grandfather and great-grandfather's names were Graden, and I was very close to both of them.

How would you recommend that I stop him from spitting out what he is drinking? No matter what he has (milk, water, or juice) he will take a sip and leave it in his mouth just so he can spit it out. It doesn't matter whether I am in the the room with him or not. Of course, it's easier to do if I leave. The usual punishments haven't work like time-outs or even spanking. If he does it I will just give him water the next time so at least he won't stain the carpet! It's like no matter how much I talk to him he doesn't understand it's wrong. I will tell him before I give him a cup that he shouldn't spit it out. It doesn't even help when I catch him in the act, either.
