Pregnancy & Parenting - 13 October 2007

The recovery period is significantly longer than natural birth... you have to be drugged... your stomach muscles are severed, which means you can't lift your baby by yourself, you can't open a door, you can't lie down in bed, you can't sit up... you have a permanent 5 inch scar... your chances of infection are greatly increased.
Don't get me wrong... sometimes they're necessary.

I was curious let's say an affluent couple have a baby and they want to give it up for adoption and of course they want the best for their child-- and a single lady with a job wants to adopt the child, BUT, she also wants the biological father to pay child support even though it is not her own. Is this possible and have you ever heard of something like this before.

I am 42 and am looking to adopt. I can't afford the high fees to get a child, but I can afford to raise one if the father helps financially. YOur thoughts.

So one parent can be at home with the kids? Will the kids grow up to be less selfish.

Okay today I went to mcdonalds and got a cheeseburger with bacon, and we ordered another item that they didnt' give us. So we were trying to find the receipt to see if we were charged and for some reason it was attached to my hamburger so the person I was handing it to grabbed the receipt and the hamburger fell out on the floor, and I started bawling. I mean like a six year old tears streaming runny nose. So much that the person went back and got me another one. I look back at and laugh but at the time i was seriously hurt. My mom said it's pregnant womens syndrome lol.Anyone else experience anything like this while pregnant.

The card is for someone I work with. I am friends with the mother-to-be and her husband, so I don't want it to be too formal. At the same time, we aren't too close, so I don't want it to be too personal.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

My b/f made up a bottle of cows milk without checking it was still in date. I didn't realise until the end of the bottle that it had all curdled into a disgusting ball. I'm really worried now she's gone to bed. Do you think she will be sick? I feel terrible. She's only 14months. Spare the nasty comments please.

I have 2 children Caitlynn Jade (CJ), Kevin Charles (KC), and I am expecting another baby mid May, but the sex is going to be a surprise. Any suggestions for girl names first and middle that will be able to go by initals if so desired?

We have a daughter named Brielle. We want something that is unique--possibly a spin on a more conventional name--and that can be shortened.

Audrina Paige
Lainey Paige
Finley Paige
Shayla Paige

Or feel free to add suggestions!
