This will be my 3rd but his first. I used my dads name in both my other childrens name which was Donald Wayne so i have Austin Wayne and Jaylee Dawn... He would like to use his parents name in this one as middle names so if its a boy David and a girl Jo. He requested a boys name start with an R if possible (long story).... Any good suggestions for either?

They aren't! Almost every one I see has such a nice glow about her. Her face seems to have a more pleasant and softer look. Pregnant woman so often are radiant! You can take the plainest woman in the world and put a new baby in her arms, and she becomes radiant, too.

My husband and I would like to start trying for a baby and we just want to know what has worked for some people. We haven't tried w/o birth control yet so it is not like there are fertility problems (that we know of). We just want to know what we should try. *Keep it clean people!

I lost my twins at 19 wks 6 days, on 8/26/07. I had a natural birth, they were just too young to live. It's been 10 days, and I want to go back. I think it will help emotionally. I am a machinist, and my boss said he'd work with me, as far as if i need to leave and so on. What do you think. is it too soon, has my body healed enough yet to go back? I'm planning on returning tomorrow so any answers would be appreciated

Crrently involved in CPS case, which all began because my ex & his mother have been coaching my sons to call CPS whenever I do/do not do something out of revenge, all because my ex has to pay child support. He cannot prove I'm a bad parent. He would rather have my sons live with him - have me pay child support. One of my sons recently became angry w/ me because I took his cell phone- away as punishment. A week later, he & his brother got into a fight. My son ended up w/ a bruise under his eye. He went to see the school nurse. The nurse asked how he got the bruise, he told her I did it. She reported it to CPS. CPS has been on my back since then, (approx 6 months now). There's no evidence/proof that I struck my child. They never closed the case. 6 different workers were assigned, includ'g a supervisor. There's no sign of abuse. I'm not a violent person, nor do I drink/drugs-never been arrested. I filed a complaint & now they are retaliating. What can I do to get them off my back!!!

This is definitely pregnancy related because it never happened to me before. Sometimes, my bladder doesn't hold when I sneeze and I tinkle in my pants. Pantyliners have become a must for me. Anyone else?

I don't want my daughter to be a scared woman. Meaning, I don't want her to be afraid of spiders. I want her to be able to punch a man in his mouth if he ever lays hands on her. I want her to expect a certain level of treatment from men in her life. I don;t want her in the kitchen while the men are outside discussing "important stuff." But she has a mother who won't take out the trash, is scared of everything manmade. How do I counter that influence?

Ok, please no nasty remarks if this is a dumb question but I have noticed myself sneezing like 10 times a day. I don't have a cold. I do have allergies but not at this time of year (usually in the spring) and my eyes are not itchy. It's strange. It may be coincidental because I know it seems like a stretch but I am sneezing alot!

Anyone else or am I just nuts? (lol)

i'm finding it a bit of a struggle and i've asked for suggestions on here before but i just get confused when each person suggesting about 10 names each so i thought i'd just ask what you've named your children and then maybe i can nick one or two of them hehe!

My husband and I have been married 8 months and we have known since before we were engaged that we wanted to have children immediately. We are 21 and 22 , still in college, and not getting paid very much. I know the answer seems to be a loud and resounding NO! but we are ready to be parents and are already 2 months past when we originally said we would start trying. The only reason we are waiting is because of money. If we had a child we would not be able to save a dime or do anything that is "fun." Meaning, we couldn't go out to eat or to a movie at all. We are prepared for this, just not for the fact that we may not be able to buy the amount of groceries we would need for that month or be able to pay a car note. Any advice or experiences you would like to share? Maybe ways to make extra money once the baby is born?

Last evening my 17 year old son had his girl "friend" over to hang out for a few hours. They always leave the door to the bonus room open as a rule, and when I came up to talk to them about something I walked in on her giving him a blow*job!! At first I didn't realize what was happening because they are "just friends" and I thought they were just goofing off. So I just blew it off and joked around about it a bit because my son still had his shorts on. THen he told me later when I asked if they really were doing that? Now, as I dwell on it I feel a little out of my league on this. She a nice girl if a bit ditzy, and I really didn't expect this from her. Where should I go with this? What should I say to my son? What new rules should be imposed if any? What's a mom to do?

I am having problems with my daughter in Kindergarten. She has already been kicked out of pre-k once for her attitude. She acts as if she is 30 years old and instead she is only 5.

She has been sent to Principal's office today and I want to nip the problem in the bud. We discipline her with groundings, mouth wash out, spankings, etc. But, nothing works. We have seen counselor for a little while but all they tell me is that she is smart for her age.

I don't know what to do and I am looking for ALTERNATIVE DISCIPLINES. Anyone out there know any additional ideas or tips on discipline or how to get your child to behave.

Although i am a mother of 5 kids, all grown up now, my daughter is due to have her first baby and they have said if it has'nt come by next thusday they will do a sweep on her. What the heck is a sweep. I know you can take tablets to induce or they break the waters, but a sweep is new to me, and my daughter has'nt a clue. She thought that i would know for sure.
