Pregnancy & Parenting - 7 October 2007

i posted a ? the other day about when i should tell my husband that we are pregnant... i did and two days (friday night) later i had a miscarriage. i have to go to the doctor tomorrow, but for those of you who have had a miscarriage (my first) what did your doctor tell you about continuing to try to conceive? while my husband and i are very sad about this we don't feel deterred in trying but i have heard conflicting things about continuing ranging from not having to wait at all to waiting upwards of four months.
i was 6 weeks.
thanks for any answers.

ok, so my friend from japan is coming over to america to see me and she's supposed to be here for a week. i have told my new adopted parents and they said they are not going to let me see her. so i asked why and they said because for one that they will not be able to understand her and when i talk to her will not be able to understand me and because they do not know her and they really won't because again they can't understand her. she's a very nice girl, she's funny, sweet, responsible, and mature and would never do somthing she know's is wrong. how can i convince them to let me see her when she's here?

She gets into everything, tears up everything, finds a way to get into everything no matter where it is, doesn't listen, is so hyper, yells and screams when you try to discipline her, doesnt care about how others feel, hits people, I could go on and on.
I took her to the doctor but that didnt help. The doctor said I need to put her in time out and take things away from her. What help that was... not.
When you take something from her and tell her no, she just finds something else to get in to. And time out doesnt help. Spanking doesnt help. That doesnt even fase her.
I am exhausted. I work more than 40 hours a week and then have to come home to a disaster area because of her. She doesnt get sweets so she isnt hyper because of that.
What am I doing wrong?? I am persistant and everything.
My husband cannot control her either.

I am at a place where I feel the overwhelming desire to start a family with my husband. We are well established, great relationship and both in highly respected professions. My husband, with his scientific mind, keeps asking me WHY I have the desire right now (it has come to the point where my heart aches when I leave my friends' children...) and wants me to have a concrete articulation as to why I am having the feelings I am having. Feelings are quite difficult to put into a few words, and when I tell him I want to share my life and experiences with a child and to go to that step in my life, he just doesn't understand. He wants a concrete answer why. It isn't that he doesn't want kids, he does, just not sure WHEN. I can't keep feeling like this, but without a concrete explanation as to the WHY, he jsut cannot comprehend...So, long way of asking....

Why did/do you want to start a family besides the gutteral feeling of that is what you want for your life...??

My husband and I both love these names. We're in the middle though. The middle name will be Timothy (his middle name and his father's name). The names are Talon or Aiden. I think i'm leaning toward Talon but i'm not sure.

Me and my now ex girlfriend dated for 4 years. 3 1/2 of those years, we had unprotected sex with a "if it happens, it happens" attitude. For about 3 months, we actively tried getting pregnant. But it never happened (and good thing too) We broke up 2 months ago (and had sex 2 months ago). Then she started to see another guy and from what she's told me, had sex many times (but used a condom). That lasted from last month to about a week ago. Well, we had sex again 3 days before she took a pregnancy test that came out positive, and her last period ended sept. 12. What do you think the odds are I'm the father?

I'm writing a story about a girl's life. It starts when she's a newborn baby and continues until she's in her twenties.
Can you help me name her?
She's about 5'5". She has bright blue eyes and black hair. She's really pretty. This girl is extremely nice and flawless.

Thanks.

My husband and I have decided to name our daughter Hanna Rain (No special reason we just liked it and agreed on it together.) Just last week a close aunt of mine died. I feel like i should have her name in my daughters name some how. (I feel like its some sign?...) I also like the idea of my mothers name in my daughters name to. Do you have any suggestions on how to put the names together? With only one middle,last and first.? The Last name is Gay. Thanks in advance!

Hanna Rain (Our choice)
Gloradean (My mothers name)
Melanie Candace (Deceased aunt)

What if the parents can't afford to raise the baby? Wouldn't it be better if the child was dead than to be brought up poor? Shouldn't it be up to the parents whether or not to terminate the child.

What if the baby would be born a bastard (out of wedlock)? Should the mother have to go through the embarrassment of having a bastard child?

I don't think that the anti-abortion people stop to think about these important questions!

I'm also still not sure about the spelling of a girl's version of Dylan, so any suggestions are welcome.
