We are going to name her Abigail Noelle-We just both love the name Abigail and "Abi" for short. Noelle for her middle name because that was the name of our very close friend's 4 yr. old daughter who just passed...what do you think?

who do you think is going to fit your half of the bill for a child you didn't want if the mother can't afford to raise the child by herself but still wants to keep her child. The state will have to pay your portion if it ever became law that a man didn't have to pay child support for a child that he did not want. It's not fair to the tax payers to have to pay to raise your kid.

currently 17wks into 2nd pregnancy. 1st pregnancy was induced at 43 weeks (yes way over due, total stuff up with doctors) with a 26hr labour, only 5cm dialated and baby in distress. Emergency caesar was performed and baby was 10pd. Had large amount of blood loss but recovered quite well.
Now have seen the doctor and midwife at the hospital at booking in appt, and have been told that currently have 60% chance of successful VBAC. am not necessarily inclined one way or the other about vaginal birth, but if can do it, it is obviously the better choice for everyone. If end up with another caeser then will definately have to have a 3rd one should there be another pregnancy.
Does anyone have any personal experience with VBAC and how did it go for you either way?

My husband and I have been married going on 5 years now and we have a beautiful 4 year old daughter. We were set on only having one child for the longest time but now that she is getting older, I really want her to have a sibling. I think that this would be the perfect time because she is getting ready to go into school and my husband just got a raise! We aren't rolling in money but with him making more money we should be able to take care of another child. I have talked a lot to him about this but he still isn't really feeling it like I am. Any suggestions on what I can do to convince him??

Im 41 weeks pregnant.
Had a non stress test today and an ultrasound. Baby is fine weighing 8lbs, amnio fluid is fine, having painless contractions but internal exam shows cervix still closed!
They said they would induce me in a week.
Two questions:

1) Why are they making me wait another week? If thats whats best then so be it but was just wandering given that my cervix is still closed surely its better to induce sooner rather then later if it looks like they will have to induce anyway. what do you think?

2) Should I have an epidural if I am going to be induced? I heard that being induced brings on v. fast and painful strong contractions?

This is all very dissapointing as I was planning to have a natural birth in the birthing center within the hospital. Now I will have to go to regular labor and delivery ward, so I thought 'well if Im going to have medical intervention may as well go the whole hog and have epidural .........what do you think?
Thanx for all your input.

Because my mom was married for close to three years before she had my brother Mike but then it only took another 2 years to have my brother Paul but she was only trying for around one year. But then another year later she wanted to have another kid and if took her five years until she had me. So would the same thing happen to me because I want to have more then three kids and I want to know if it would happen to me. Then again my mother got married when she was 28 and my dad was 32 so does age play a big role too because I want to get married around 22/23/24 years of age? Thanks!

My daughter and I are visiting in MI right now and she is having such a hard time with it. It is hot and sticky and she does not want to go to sleep. Right now she is in her crib occasionally getting up and screaming but by the time I get to the corner or the stairs she is back to eating her bottle and sleeping. She is cutting 8 new teeth and for a few nights I had to wrap her up real snug and hold her to force her to go to sleep. I am soooo frustrated.... I have run out of ideas

She has a fan in the room to cool it off
I have tried teething tablets, swabs, and gels
I have tried baby tylenol
I have run out of ideas to make her more comfortable

I feel like my baby girl just isn't interested in nursing anymore. I work full time and mostly nurse a couple times in the morning and then to pretty much get her to sleep at night. I feed her infant food, rice cereal and supplement with formula because she is always at g-ma's while I am at work. I tried pumping, but honestly I dont think I produce enough milk. She is now almost 6 months and it isnt an imposition on me or anything, I love having the power to conquor my crying fussy baby when no one else can....lol. But is it worth it? Has breastfeeding this long been helpfull still?? When did you stop?
Thanks! :)
