I just found out i am having my 3rd baby girl and cant figure out what to name her. My husband and i are stuck on 2 names but cant settle for just one and we dont use middles names my name is Jessica and his is Joel so we thought of putting them together and got Jessele maybe even jeseli and we both just like the name Mikayla. Which name is cuter?

Hi. I am 22 years old and somewhat over weight. My husband and I have been trying to conceive naturally for a little over a year. This proved to be difficult since I only have a period when I take Provera. So this past month my Doctor put me on Clomid 50 mg and Metformin 150mg. I started off with 10 days of provera and then on cycle days 5-9 i took clomid. We had sex on days 12,14,16, and 18. I was feeling really confident because i was having some symptoms (or what i thought were symptoms) of pregnancy however my 21 day progesterone level is 1.8. I am still 2 days away from AF being due. My doc says I could be pregnant but not likely and I am to test on Sunday to see and if not then we will up the dose of clomid. I am concerned however that since my progesterone level was so low that I may never conceive. Anyone else ever experience this?

He has tried all of the cereals and we are making our way through fruits. Do I offer him his bottle at the same time? Or schedule it at different time than his bottle. I offer 30 ounces a day, he usually eats @ 25. The pediatrician said to still off him that amount. Do I give the fruits twice a day until we move on vegetables along with the cereal? Any suggestions would be great.

For my son I tried going natural... went hours and hours and hours with out medication but was not progressing until the patosin (spelling?) and I was only at a four and they told me that it would be about an hour per centimeter and I realized if I went another 6 hours I would not have enough energy to actually give birth. So I asked for the epideral before they checked me. Then 5 minutes after I had the epideral (hadnt even taken full effect yet!) they check and I was at a 10 and crowning. So he was born 45 minutes after the epideral. ( I did not feel a thing! man if i hadnt want to go natural that worked amazing!) Anyway.
For my next child i really want to be able to go natural again. What helped you cope with the pain?

If a child was born 1 month premature, and 3 months have passed from their DOB, their ______ age is 2 months.

I don't really know how to explain this better. In discussions with my mother about my daughter (5 weeks premature), I apparently mentioned a type of age that was neither gestational, conceptional, nor corrected, As this was 6 1/2 years ago, I don't remember what I said. Now she's asked me and its driving me nuts!

I think that is awesome. I also think it is amazing because there was no fertility drugs used. These babies are from 2.5 to 3 pounds. I have come to the conclusion that without using fertility drugs the health of twins to sextuplets is healthier. Do you think so? I mean recently there was a set of sextuplets where there were deaths and each mother used fertility drugs. Not sure I trust them!!

I have a friend that has a small baby. I used to babysit for her with the baby was an infant. I agreed, but she took advantage of my time several times. Whenever I babysit, she is almost ALWAYS two hours late.....always late even when I ask her not to be. I have a life of my own. I really don't want to babysit anymore, because she can't seem to keep herself from taking advantage of me. I've also realized that I'm WAY out of the baby stage......and I like the stage I'm in (I've raised my kids already). I don't want to raise another child. I think she would have her child at my house all the time if I'd let her.
Any suggestions?

I had a miscarriage on June 27th but it was a blighted ovum pregnancy (thought I was at 12 weeks but ended up only being a sac of 5 weeks). I have not have a normal period since (although I thought I was getting it about a month or so ago, had some spotting in the morning, then nothing). Did a test last week and got a negative result. I decided to do another test yesterday afternoon (faint positive) and again first thing this morning and had a little darker faint positive. Do you think this could be still hcg levels left over or another pregnancy? I am going for a blood test next week to confirm. If I am pregnant how will they know how far along if there has been no period?
