My husband and I have come to a final decision on our babies name (im 27 weeks with a boy). These are the three names.. all the same first name because I love the name. Three different middle names tell me which one you like best. Or if you dont like any of them. (not listing last name)

Jesse James

Jesse Matthew

Jesse Gunnar

Not necessarily the infamous "turkey baster" option, but a more advanced technique of using a syringe (with no needle of course) My husband and I have regular sexual intercourse, but I have some fertility issues, and frankly we would have to have sex 3 times a day to increase our chances. There just aren't enough hours in the day! We have been married for 10 years, and I we haven't had any luck with a live birth. 1 ectopic, 1 misscarriage, and alot of tears. I can carry naturally according to my OB, but cards are stacked against me. I really don't want to start invitro cycles just yet. Expensive, and exhausting...Really want to exhaust all other options first.

Is it me or does it seem that giving a girl a stripper's name is fashionable these days. Have you seen some the the combos that people come up with? What happened to good strong names? Anyone else agree with me?

I really am not going to structure much. On this night Disney Channel is having spooky shows so that will be good and they'll do make up and stuff.

As far as food. I am having hot dogs, chips and pop for a late supper and then cake and ice cream about 8:00.

For later I am making a snack mix of popcorn, candy corn, M&M’s and peanuts.

Do you think that is enough food. I really do not want them bouncing off the walls or getting sick.

This is open to any opinions. Do you think the mother takes on more responsibilities/the father, both, or neither.

My temp has gone up a little more each time for the last 4 days, but it hasn't jumped more than .39.
My temps were 97.22, 97.44, 97.52, 97.91.
I got a positive OPK on the morning my temp was 97.44.
I'm using fertilityfriend as recommended by a few of you, but it says OV has not been detected yet. =/

Do you think it is dumb to give all your kids gender neutral names?

i think personally it is ok for one or two of your kids but if all your kids have gender neutral names it'll be very confuzing when you tell people about your kids.

I'm currently expecting a baby girl and we truly love the name Gabriella. Only problem is we haven't found a middle name for her yet. We're both hispanic and we're hoping to give her a hispanic middle name. Her name so far is Gabriella Andino.

Hi there. So, weird question:
I do ovulate: (positive OPK, ovulation on fertilityfriend, high temps, ovulation pain)
So i know i ovulate every cycle on day 15 that means i release an egg, so does that mean the egg is "totally" released or can you ovulate and have blocked tubes and the egg doesnt come out, but still you ovulated or do you only ovulate if the egg makes it all the way out?!

Weird i know?

Just playing the baby name game. If I ever have a little girl I am thinking of giving her a name that ends in "la".... Some I have thought of are :

Alela
Talula
Lula

my mother loves Lulu, but not sure about it.

Would love your opinions or suggestions of unsual names.

Recently my son(3 months old) has been spitting up more than normal. He usually only spit up alittle once ot twice during each feeding. Now it's like 4 times but alort bigger amount. He cries hard while being burped inbetween and after. I think he's vomiting instead of spitting up, but im not sure. The spitup/ vomit always has mucous in it and sometimes curdy. Every feeding he gets really fidgity and fussy. After 2 ounces he starts choking while he's eatting. Before he took 6 ounces , now its hard for him to even take 4 ounces. In the beginning he was very colicky, but it let up alot. Any one have any idea what it could be? Should I try to switch to soy? Can you just switch right away? or do you have to ease into it? He has no diahrrea or nothing like like.

My daughter is 3 and she is being bullied by a 3 year old a few months younger than her. i cant really keep them apart since we are neighbors and his older siblings go to school with my older daughter. I have told this child to quit calling my daughter stupid, and ugly. He continues and this morning he told her he was gonna beat her @ss!!! His mother just calls him stupid when he calls my child stupid. His brothers and sisters are also bullies and I believe he is trying to "prove himself" to his older siblings. How do i teach MY child to stand up for herself without sending her the wrong message? She is by far bigger than this boy and could easily hurt him if she wanted to. As it is though my 5 year old is always standing up for my 3 year old and i dont want her to become dependant one her older sister to fight her battles. Should i put her in a martial arts class?

Here is a little bit of history before i get answers saying he is not ready, he is afraid of the toilet, he is constipated.
I started toilet training at 2 years old, he got the hang of it, except the pooping thing, then we stopped because i was pregnant and he started to regress so we stopped. We picked it back up at 2 1/2 and he loves it, we got rid of the diapers even at night, has never had an accident....except the pooping thing. He has now been 3 for a month and still is not pooping regularly on the toilet, i have seen him do it, i know he can. It is just a game, a power struggle. We have tried every approach, rewards, praise, making him sit when we knew he had to go, i mean everything and he still wont.
So my question is has anyone tried the i dont care approach? When the child poops you just say or act like you dont care, clean him up and change him and then carry on.
Does it work? how long did it take until the child wa doing it on his own?
Thank you so much for any help
