Ive just gave birth to my 3rd child on the 7th of this month, a baby boy named Kyle, we already have 2 girls.
The thing thats bothering me is the fact that hardly anyone bought my baby anything, some people even came to visit without a card even, including my mum, and no one bought me anything at all, apart from my partner who got me a box of chocs but thats hardly thoughtful is it? All other people in the hospital were bought flowers, fruit baskets etc and I felt really feally upset to have not recieved anything at all, especially not even a bunch of flowers from my partner. He and others have usually bought me and my other children things when they were born.
The other thing is that my sister is law just had a baby too a few months ago, premeture, and everyone made sure they had the money to buy her and her baby something, they spent a fortune on her on flowers especially, including me and my partner, we bought her an expensive bunch and also the baby a biggish teddy. Wat u think?

I'm only in the 10th grade and me and my man were thinking about having a kid. He thinks I am too young for us to even be thinking about that but I feel so incomplete like I need one to love. Our situation isn't that good. We would be the only ones taking care of it... unless we go to live in his house where his cousins or my friendz over there would help take care of it but I don't want to go there cuz its like... i want us to start somewhere fresh just the two of us. Call me old fashioned but I think the love could hold us together.

I had my gall bladder removed three weeks after my three year old was born via emergency c-section. I had a miscarriage a year and a half ago and now I am pregnant again. I am wondering if the gas pains and other sharp pains are normal in a pregnancy after having my gall bladder removed. I didn't have these pains before the miscarriage. I also wonder if part of it is because of the c-section and the scar tissue from that.

Any ideas??

If you are taking your BBT and it increases does this mean that this is your first day of ovulation or does it mean it will occur in a few days?

My husband and I have been trying to have a child for two months now and nothing seems to be working. I have heard that if you go on birth control and then get off that your chances of getting pregnant are higher and I have also tried the tempature testing but both of them didn't work?

any ideas?

I'm 31 week preggo and my nipples are like RIDICULOUSLY dark. they used to be a cute and small and caramel colored and now they are hideous. i know this is normal but will they ever change back? I feel like one of those half naked indian tribe women who have big scary almost black looking nipples. What do I do? When will I see them change back?

and also... so you can have breast augmentation or breast lift or breast reduction to change the size and look of your breasts BUT has anyone ever heard doing any type of procedure that changes your nipples? in particular the color? Or are there any creams or anything that help lighten them?

Mommies, what can i do? My boyfriend makes fun of me! He says he loves me all the same but still I get really self conscious about them.

My sister has changed her mind numerous times as to what her baby girl's middle name will be. Janelle is due in less than 3 months. Please vote for the best middle name. You can also list other suggestions. Thanks in advance for your vote!

People need to stop assuming that we are all teens asking pregnancy questions. I am a happily married 28 yr old. & my friend who I asked a ? is a married 28 year too who just have simple questions about life and pregnancy. WE know we have to take a test but sometimes people just want other peoples opinion about what is going on. There is no need for judgement or saying to stop taking chances and use protection blah blah blah we are not dumb chicks who know nothing, we were just looking for a females opinion who have been pregnant before we go and take a test. STOP categorizing people who ask if they are pregnant as teens!

I am looking for a good name to be a middle to either Allison, Aubrie, or Abigail. Last begins with "K" so I thought the initials AOK would be cool. What do you think?

Ive noticed that they are cheaper but what does it mean? Is there anything wrong with them, also any tips on getting a good price on cloth diapers. I need to buy some but don't have too much money to invest right now.

I was watching TLC's Bringing home Baby and saw a mother from Ethiopia who wrapped her stomach with cloth and said it was a tradition in Africa to do this after giving birth. Apparently you wear it, except for showers, for like 3 months after giving birth and it helps shape your body back. I'm interested in trying this with my next post pregnancy, but would like more info on it!
