My fiance and I want to try for a baby right after the wedding (sept 22nd). I'm pretty interested in a waterbirth I want to do this natural and I know a lot girls say that and end up on drugs but it's something I've always wanted. So basically I'm just curious how others who have done this felt about their choice. Would you do it again?

I have been since I woke up this morning at 3 am...with period like cramping and back pain. Phoned the doc, told me I may be in early labor and to monitor everything.
But, am I stupid because I'm scared to have her today if she's really meant to come out? Because of it being friday the 13th...Anyone else scared for this reason?

My wife and I were having a discussion this morning about how much babies cost. My wife felt that the baby would need nothing but breast milk for the first 6 months and inexpensive clothes and an argos cot set, which I see being the ideal. I was much more cynical and felt that they are expensive to raise til they are about 17 and leave home.

We are currently doing ok financially with about £200 a month spare cash. My wife feels we could afford to have a child, I disagree.

What are your experiences financially with raising a child and how expensive/inexpensive was it?

Her colds is what bothers me coz it prevents her from sleeping.

I found out many months ago i was pregnant and after many weeks of counselling and talking to excellent people i decided to place my child for adoption. it was unplanned and i am in absolutely no position to give a child the life i would want it to have. i am completely fine with this and a wonderful family who cannot conceive naturally have been selected (they already have one adopted son).

i am due to give birth in the next few weeks and am taking everything in my stride and being very level headed about it all. i just wanted to know if anyone has been through this situation and had any advise or just experiences?

many, many thanks xxx

My little one is 4 months on Sunday. Problem is he squirms when I give him his formula he tries to wriggle it out of his mouth and mucks around until 2 minutes later he takes it then drinks half. The only reason I can think of that he does this is he is eating 7teaspoons of cereal and 3/4 jar of fruit at 12 and half a jar of vegies for dinner and still having 5 bottles 200ml each day in 24 hours. Do you think he is weaning off a bottle. He also has started holding his cup of water and having little sips at lunch.

I like the names Jason, Jessiah, but I feel like it could be a way better name. I guess i want some thing common but not to common. something a little unique. The last name is Vasquez. Rey I really like for the middle name. But any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I am 27 weeks preg with 2nd baby (already have 2 yr old). At the time i found out i was preg my marriage was in trouble and i had to make a tough decision about whether to have the baby. I decided to keep my baby and my relationship with hubby has improved dramatically.

But....we had massive row last night. It is his 30th birthday on Oct 25th and the baby is due Oct 10th. I said that i didn't mind him going out for a few hours but not an all night bender - it would then mean that he would be passed out all the next day as well. I even suggested that he go out for a big night out before the baby arrives to celebrate (i may even be able to go with him) but he was infuriated. When i had my 1st baby i really struggled in the first few months, had serious depression and i know that i will need him more than ever.

Am i being unreasonable? I know it's a special birthday but i'll have a few weeks old baby and a 2yr old! He won't even talk to me this morning :(

She cries & stays quiet when I offer my breast, but she soon falls asleep while doing her little sucking. Should I let her do this? Or will this led to a bad habit? Thanks

Did your hospital PUSH you to have an epidural? Because I want to TRY to have a drug-free and natural birth, but of course I am not ashamed to give in to medication if I really need it, or to have a c-section if there are complications.

But I went to a birthing class at my hospital and when the nurse was describing the birth process she added the epidural in like it was necessary. My partner and I started asking questions about going natural, but she just laughed it off and said EVERYONE had epidurals nowadays (although she admitted that pushing time was generally much shorter with natural birth than with an epidural).

Did your doctor or hospital try to push you towards an epidural, even though you said you wanted to try it naturally? And how did it work out for you?
