i'm 30 weeks pregnant and the last few days i have felt like i have to go #2 but i don't. Today I've been cramping and had low back pain off and on. Not constant or regular but I feel like I have to go #2. Is this normal or should i be concerned?

Is it wrong for me to be upset? The first name I was considering, I told my BFF about, then all of a sudden she goes online, searches for baby names referring to them as one she would use for her future daughter, turns out it was the same name. She's not even trying to conceive I don't understand why she's doing this. Then I told another friend about a name, and she tells me it was the name she was going to use for her second daughter but passed on it, now she tells me that her friend who is about to have her baby will use the exact first and middle name. When I told my husband about it he got very upset, he says what kind of friends are these to steal your ideas, etc. I am upset as well but it's something I can easily get over, there are plenty of other names for my baby, this time I just won't tell anyone.

Whenever our daughter has a bad dream, she comes into our room. She used to wake us up, but now she just brings a pillow, blanket and her stuffed monkey with her and lays on the floor without saying a word.

Wife and I were about to have sex around 2 a.m. when she fortunately saw our daughter on the floor. I'm paranoid that she's going to either walk in on us one night or we'll forget to check the floor and she'll be tramatized for life.

It seems mean to tell her not to come in our room, but then you can't exactly explain to a kid you don't want her to catch you having sex. Advice?

Why do people go into a question and rate perfectly good and correct answers with negative ratings? Go get a life.

I'm 61/2 weeks pregnant but still just don't feel too different! My nipples felt a little different but today feel fine! Did anyone feel just normal during their pregnancy and it turn out just fine? Or does this mean that my hormones aren't working the way they're suppose to?

I find more and more questions from young (I mean YOUNG) kids asking about sex, pregnancy, and other adult problems.

There are kids saying "Do you think I could have gotten pregnant? What should I do?"

They are uneducated about their actions, yet they continue to do these things. If you are not sure if this or that action could result in a consequence that is undesirable, then for pity's sake, DON'T DO IT!!!

Then there are the young man-trap teenage girls that will secretly try to get pregnant "on accident." They think they are solving all their emotional problems. They think the guy will instantly commit himself and fall in love...

..Then they end up with no college education and one or more extra mouths to feed. I know a girl who had a kid before her education was through. She is really struggling now. It is hard to make enough money on your own and go to school and have time with your kid to raise him right.

Why do you think kids are doing this? How can we prevent it?

i missed my period for almost two months and i thought i was pregnant. two days before i got the test, i suddenly had really bad cramping and felt like throwing up. then my period started heavily. judging by the timing, i would have been 5 to 6 weeks if i were pregnant. now its 6 months later and im wondering if a doctor would be able to tell me if i was pregnant in the first place

ive notice more nd more teens are pregnant then the generations before them . 10 ys ago in my school in the a major city there were a total of 4 girls that were pregnent before they graduated, but they were known to sleep around. and these were 17 18 yr olds. now it seems like more often then none its 13 14 15 yr olds that are getting pregnant what happened to saying no?

do you think it has to do with these certain parents that want to let their kids be there own person?

do you think parents should try to convience there kids to be kids as long as they can?

Ok, so my fiance wasn't able to be there for our son's birth. Now my question is this! Do u feel that if u were not there for your childs birth that you are unable to bond with and love that child like it should be loved? He feels that because he was not there that he cant form a bond, i told him that's on him and it's his mental problem, is he right or am i?

Quick history:
Caregiver fell with my son and fractured his skull
Went to specialist -he said everything was fine
Took him for 4 mos. shots, doc sent to be re-xrayed-afraid he might not be healing well
Specialist said he was perfectly fine
That was two weeks ago!
Today they call and say doc wants him to be re-xrayed in 6 weeks because he's not happy with the way it's healing.
Why did it take two weeks for him to change his mind?
Is it possible doc doesn't realize my son went in for his 6 week re-xray 4 weeks early because of his doc worrying when we went in for his shots?
I left a message for them to call me back.

I took a pregnancy test last week(cvs generic first response) and it was negative. Threw it in the trash and thirty minutes later decided to check it again. There was a faint but very noticeable positive(even my grandma could see it without her glasses on!)....I know generally you aren't supposed to look at the results after ten minutes but I can't help but be hopeful. I wanted to know if anyone else had this happen to them and if they were really pg?
I took another test(same kind) the next day and it took all day but later that day it came back with a faint faint positive. Crazy!!! Maybe they were defective tests.....

My brother in law's girlfriend of 3 years just found out that she is pregnant.... and says that it is twins. She is 6 weeks and said that at her dr's appointment 10 days ago they told her that it was twins. I guess I am just wondering that someone that at the time would have only been 5 1/2 weeks would they be able to tell.

I am a mother of 3 but have never had an ultrasound before 8 weeks.
