Pregnancy & Parenting - 4 October 2007

My husband and I are trying to decide on names for a baby. Dont know what it is yet.. but here are the names we have come up with so far.. keep in mind our last name starts with a "D"....

1. Krista Destiny D--------
2. Shelby Destiny D--------
3. Lucy Destiny D--------

1. Cooper Zildjian D--------
2. Trent Zildjian D--------
3. Gage Zildjian D--------

I let my husband pick the middle names ( ugh) I dont care for either of them... but thats what I have to work with. Our oldest Daughters name is Jenna FATE... so he wants to stick to that sort of "range" our son is a Junior ( Michael Robert)... my husband is a drummer hence the Zildjian thing... so lemmie know what ya'll think... :) have a good one everyone!!!

I am going to be 39 weeks pregnant next week. I have not received any pelvic exams [excluding a pap on my first visit, and a strep-B test at 36 weeks]. I have not received any vaginal exams as I am high-risk [bicornuate uterus/low amniotic fluids/grade 3 placenta] and was told no vaginal stimulation is prefered. I received 4 ultrasounds a week and 4 NST's [non stress tests, monitoring of the babys heart and my contractions] a week. My baby is head-down [NOT transverse/breech].

I was told at 39 weeks they will check my cervix for dilation. How do they check? My Mom says they only use a finger and feel up there.. I am convinced this would not work and they must use a speculum and actually look up there.. Right?

If I'm receiving NST's and ultrasounds 4 times a week to monitor positioning of baby and both the health of baby and I, is there really any reason I NEED to be checked vaginally???

I don't care how dilated I am, should I? I will get checked if I have contractions.

I had an emergency c/s with my last baby, I don't remember what they gave me and I have to have a c/s with this one. Just wanted to know if anyone has any laymans advice about either option.

How do I get my parents do understand that I am not a complete loser? I just got found out for using d*u*s and other susbstances, my parents recently found out. Not that they worry about it to much, but they think that I suck at everything in life now. All I hear is "No boys gunna love you with that tattoo" "No boys gunna love you when your 30 and hooked on D*U*S"

And what hurts even more is that they don't know how much it hurts me when they say it! I want to prove to htme, that I have feelings to ya know!

So, if the doc says that you are measuring small, does this mean that the baby is small? Or does this just mean that you are small? I am 36 weeks and measuring 35. This may sound like a silly question, but, whatever.
Also, for those of you who live in the U.S., when did they start checking for dialation?

I just found out three weeks ago that I'm am pregnant with our fourth child. We are trying very hard not to count our chickens before they hatch but really want another girl. Our oldest is an 8 yr old girl followed by 5 yr old boy and 19 mo. old boy. Anyway, my husband is insisting on the name Elizabeth Jade as a girls name, but also insisting on calling her by her middle name Jade. I on the other hand think this is stupid and if we have a girl, we should name her Jade Elizabeth and then at no point in her life will she be confused...or people calling out Elizabeth and her having to say, no it's Jade. What is your opinion? And if you agree w/ me, how do I convince my husband?

My son will turn to be 1 on 24th. I ve started sending him to a daycare from last 20 days as i've to join my job on 10th. Initially for 2 days he cried and then he was fine but then he dint go for a week bcoz of cold n fever now he again cried for 2 days when he goes but today it was a lil better. I'm just confused am I doing right???? Will sending my son to a day care will ruin his growth??? I'll be going at 6 in the morning, then my husband will prepare him for going to daycare, hell go at 8:45 and tthen will come at 3:30 in the afternoon. Will he be fine there? or even if I leave my job will he be happy living with me all the day alone as we are a nuclear family? when he is home also, he wants to go outside??? Dont know am I doing right for my child??

So im having a little girl in a few weeks.. and i cannot decide on a name for her. My fiance is very set on the name Zoey Lynn.. and im not crazy about it at all. I do want to use Lynn as a middle name however.. because its mine. I really liked Jamey Lynn (my fiances name is James) so that wouldve worked well.. but a women i work with recently had a girl and that was the name she chose, i dont wanna be a copycat. For awhile i thought i was decided on Ashlee Lynn, but im not sure if i like it enough. I really like Lily as a first name but i dont like how it goes with Lynn.. and cant choose another middle name i like with it. OMG im confused why is this so hard, please help!!
