It used to be a pretty popular name way back when. Does it now make you think of a country bumpkin?

I like it but I don't know if it has negative connotations

Hey! I was just wondering if anyone knew any baby names? Boy or girl. Last name is West! I know this is SUCH a personal matter--but I am just tired of racking my brain of this. ;-)

I have: Carleigh Mae (Carl was the name of my hubs gdads f. name and Mae is my gmas mid. name)
and Zachary Carl....

Also, is anyone creative enough to come up with something the name of Belinda (does not have to be whole name) I like to keep it in the family!

Thanks, in advance!!

This is my first cycle on Clomid. It's now been 7 days since my last pill and I have not ovulated...at least i have not turned an opk anything close to positive. I was ovulating on my own every month around day 14. I was prescribed Clomid for unexplained infertility/possible luteal phase defect. We have been trying for 2 years now. I'm getting very anxious that I won't ovulate!

what kind of punishment is this? I think she's doing me a favor

We had an argument she says, "Don't talk to me."

It's so relaxing watching TV, without her talking and asking, Why, what and where

It's so peaceful without her talking and yelling

although, i know i am ready for children (i'm 30), my husband just wasn't (he's 38). so, i went on the pill but ended up pregnant anyway. lately, my husband has been irresponsible with our finances and his job. he is on the verge of being fired. he wants me to "get rid of it" because of our current financial situation and the fact that he still isn't ready. i think he is being cruel and selfish. but i really do want this baby! can someone give me an outside perspective, please?

I am almost 28 weeks pregnant. A few days ago I was having contractions and my doctor told me it was because I had a mild vaginal infection (bacterial) which I got medicine for and I was dehydrated from drinking too much Sprite. She said to only drink water and I could have flavored water. I know most of the flavored water now is sweetened with artificial sweeteners and I can't have Nutrasweet (or anything with aspertame. But can I have Splenda? Sorry so long.

My child has 2 severe food allergies. I am really concerned about how this is going to affect her as she gets older. Example: Birthday party. We didn't go because there were peanuts on the tables as a decoration and they were being eaten by adults and children at the party. The issue for her is the peanut dust that is in the air when they are being eaten (which is why many airlines no longer serve peanuts on flights). So, we skipped the party. My guess based on the severity of her allergy is that I would have been shocked if she would have made it through the night without a reaction.
Why am I paniced? Because I am noticing that people continue on with their plans, even if it excludes us. In all instances, it would be very easy to make small changes to accomidate her, but it doesn't happen and so we skip out on the event. It has gotten to the point where it is hurtful & feels like she/we are not accepted.
What do you think? Please be honest!!
Thank you!

My 3 year old grandson has always been a bit "labor intensive" and "high maintenance". What I mean is, as an infant, he was much "needier" ( ie: couldn't lay him down to sleep, he wanted to sleep in my arms... and as a toddler, would wake during the night and want me to rock him). He isn't near as self entertaining as my daughters were. He is really a sweet, loving, and smart boy, but... he now seems to be getting really "wild". He is so rough! Sometimes, if I know he is in one of his wild moods, I better get out of his way! He'll run me down! I'm getting discouraged because I notice that I am losing patience with him and am raising my voice... a lot! I don't want to be hollering at him, especially since it doesn't do any good. If I try to get down on his level and talk to him, he's just wiggling around and laughing, and acting silly. Sometimes he is so fueled up I wonder what on earth he ate. I want him to have some self control. How do I handle him?

I posted this on women's health, but I feel like more people on here would answer.

So, I am 2 weeks late for my period. Last month I had an odd period, so a few weeks later I took a test and then I haven't gotten my period so I took 2 more tests last week(both take at the same time, but 2 different brands just so I knew the answer was certain). Today I saw a doctor and took an STD and pregnancy test. Both came back negative. She also definitely didn't give me a reason why I might not have my period, so that wasn't any help.

I have never been irregular and definitely never missed a period. I am not stressed, I have not lost or gained a lot of weight, I don't work out more or less, I don't have an eating disorder, I'm not pregnant, and I don't have STDs.

Anyone have any idea why I haven't gotten my period?

I'm freaking out! I've got 4 weeks of school left forever! My classes finish in 4 weeks then I have study leave until my exams on the 23rd November-28th November. It's my 18th birthday on the 22nd November. I feel like my childhood is coming to an end!

Next year I'm going to move out of home, to a new city where I don't really know very many people (I know about 5 people that live there that are my age).

I don't feel old enough to leave school! When I was younger I couldn't wait, but now I know that University isn't going to be easy and everything is changing. I'm excited about it, but scared at the same time!

How am I going to adjust to this? I've been going to school for the last 13 years and it'll all be over in 4 weeks!
