Pregnancy & Parenting - 31 August 2007

I am an identical twin. My dad's sister has fraternal twins. Could I possibly get pregnant with twins? I know it is always possible but what is the probability? I have an almost 18 month old & we are trying again. My husband also has twins on his side. I am almost 29, too.

I had to have a c section with both my chidren after having minor medical problems at the end of both pregnancys.
To cut a very long story short I had lots of miscarriages etc & 2 very poorly pregnancys which both resulted in elective sections - consultants decision not mine.
Now having a great pregnancy with 3 child but midwife is insisting that it is "hospital policy" that I have to have another c section and I have no choice.
This is our last baby & I would love to experiance a natural birth, why is this the policy, what danger does a vag birth pose to baby or myself. I am healthy, slim & living within the UK.
Thanks for your help.

I change my son often and he's exclusively breastfed and almost everytime he poops he has huge blowouts!!! It's just soooo miuch.

Also when is it going to stop being so obvious when he poops. I mean I never had this problem with my daughter she was formula fed and I never heard her poop. With my son it's way too obvious. I can hear it across the whole house. It's so loud. Especially when we're out it gets kind of embarrassing!! Haha, is it always going to sound like that?

I have very irregular periods with no ovulation and have had some tests and nothing has shown up. I'm currently on CD59 so my dr. did a pregnancy test - negative and I started Provera last night (for 10 days) to make me have my period and "maybe" it will help me regulate. If you've taken Provera to induce your period, how long did it take for you to start after you started the Provera?

A friend of mine is going to have a little girl soon and they are going to name her Lola Pearl. Lola after her sister, and Pearl because that's my friend's middle name and has been the middle name of every 1st born daughter in her family for the last 7 generations. The funny thing is, she doesn't even like these two names, but she loves her little sister (who's alive by the way, it's not like she's memorilizing her). And she's always hated her middle name being Pearl. Even now. But she says it's "tradition."

So how do you feel about that? Would you name your child something you don't even like just for the sake of a family tradition? What if it was your spouse's family's tradition and not yours? Would you let him/her name your child something you hated?

My son is 9 months old and still breastfed.

I haven't had a period yet but today I've had a bit of brown spotting, the first sign of anything I've seen since I gave birth! Could this be my cycle slowly returning to normal?

We had intercourse going on at that day, and today Friday Aug 31, dont know what the hell came to my mind, I tested for PREGNANCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Pregnancy can't we caught with tests at this stage right? Or does it mean thar for real I am not pregnant? Could it be possible that I am? Pleas help, I am frustrated!!!! :(

Do you think that the risk of having to have a c-section is greater with overweight women? Do you think that overweight women have larger babies?

Isn't this notion of "just let the baby cry" an insensitive, lazy approach to parenting?

I have to write a speech on abortion and I have been looking for some websites to provide the history as well as some background info on it. Also Im not sure if when writing a speech, you are supposed to include your personal beliefs? I personally am Pro-life but am not trying to offend anyone in my speech by pushing my beliefs on them . Although, I was looking for one sort of touching excerpt to put in my paper. For example, I read once where it said " if you had two deaf children and two blind, would you abort your next child?" and if you said yes, then you would have just aborted beethoven": or something like that. I appreciate any help. Thanks♥♥♥

...and today is the second day in a row she's had an 'accident' in her pants. She's been going to day care/preschool since she was 2, and she's NEVER ONCE peed her pants!!!! What the heck is going on?? Is she just stressed?? She is acting like it's no big deal, but I don't want kids to start making fun of her! Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks so much in advance!

She thinks that when her hair fell out, she looked like a boy but was too ill to care. Its starting to grow back now, but is very thin and quite short. She feels it looks like a boys haircut. All she wants now is look girly again, and thinks hair extensions and earrings would do it. As she pointed out, she never cried when she was being put on her chemo drip or having bloodwork, so she's sure she can handle getting her ears pierced
Normally, I would consider extensions and earrings strictly out of bounds for a 7 year old, but if her self image is affecting her confidence, then it is going to affect her ability to make friends, be part of a group, & to fit in, and I’m worried it may have long term effects. Also, after everything she has been through, and with all the courage and determination she has shown, I’m starting to think “You want hair extensions, we’ll go to the hairdresser, you want your ears done, we’ll ask the doctor if your immune sysem is up to it."
What do you think?
