Pregnancy & Parenting - 23 October 2007

My daughter was born October 19th and on the 20th h started having seizures and was sent to NICU,she is still in the NICU and every test they have run on her has come back negative,she has no infections and the brain scans all came back normal,but they still cannnot figure out why she has these little seizures.I have heard it is fairly common in newborns and they tend to grow out of it,She is on a theraputic dose of phenobarbitol and that seems to be working well for her,yet they cant tell me why they are happening or when she can get released.Please help!

I love it. If i ever have a boy, that's what I'd name him.
By the way, what does Liam Judas even mean? Anyway, your opinion or other name suggestions would be appreciated.

My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex today and we are really careful with each other so that way i dont get her pregnant! I always tell her when i think im about to or when it feels like im about to, cause of the tingles and such! After we were done with everything she was worried that she might be pregnant, but i always told her when it feels like im going to *** and i never jerked my head or anything so i know i didnt *** at all but is there anyway possible that she could be pregnant!?!? Please do tell me i love her so much!

I had sex with my boyfriend about 2 weeks ago. My period is 5 or 6 days late, although I'm not always completely regular. I smoke marijuana as well as my boyfriend. I took a pregnancy test and it came out positive. I am on bactrim and I have low thyroid levels. I'm going to go to a clinic if I don't get my period in a week, do you think it's highly likely that I'm pregnant? I've also been having cramps. Thank you

I am 13 weeks and 4 days pregnant and I have so many ouches at the moment and they are starting to worry me.

If I move the wrong way I get a slight stabbing pain in my abdomin, and last night to the right of my belly button in a 20c piece area, hurt, something similar to pulling (it stopped as soon as I pushed in that area but came back 10 mins or so later and hasnt come back since about 11pm last night).

Has anyone else had this type of feeling and do you know what it was?
This is my first pregnancy that has lasted over 12 weeks and I am scared of every twinge.

We are considering naming our (unborn) son
Elliott Skylar Kade (last name not listed here)
We will use the two middle names because my 8 year old son has two middle names
Elliott I like because of Elliott Smith/ ET
I love unique names but we're having trouble coming up with boys names
any help/ comments/ suggestions welcome :-)

soooo my mom found out that alot of my friends do drugs (long story).......and now she forbids me from hanging out with them! wtf? i mean thats alot of my friends! (from that one particular group) i can't just say "hey i cant hang with you anymore". i don't want to drugs, never have, and never will! my friends respect me when i tell them no. besides i don't go riding around with them while they're high or drunk. im not stupid. and i don't even hang around them when they're high most times. i mean they're really cool, and funny so i can't just drop them! for the most part its just weed, alcohol, and cigs. and when she told me to make new friends, i while i was considering some people that im not that close with, but could be if i wanted to be, do drugs too! so who am i suppose to hang with? im just saying if she doesn't want me to be friends with people who do drugs, then she's talking about half my school. parents would u still let ur kids continue to be around these people?

I do, but only if the girl is under 16, and got pregnut from being raped. and only if she can come up with enough reasons to explain why she should have abortion.

what about you? what do you think?

I would like to name my (unborn) daughter
Sati Sophie Olive (not listing our last name)
Sophie because I love the character in Sophie's world
Olive because it's old and classic and I think beautiful
and I am sure of two middle names because my son has two middle names :-)
Sati is Buddhist is nature
I would love all of your feedback
thanks so much
P.S. we are also considering Skyla instead of Sati but I am really into unique and original (as my name is)

First off... my husband and I are trying for #2 and I am 5 days late for visit from AF. I am having a lot of lower back pain and my stomach feels upset. Not like cramps or anything. AF was due on 10/19 and on 10/20 I had cramps and back pain. I am having absolutely nothing now... I mean nothing. No discharge or anything. I always have normal periods and they are always on the 19th of the month. I have never missed any or had my cycle change on me. I have been experiencing more frequent urination... but it is like I have to pee but then I don't pee very much at all. I know it is not a UTI or bladder or kidney infection, as I have had those before and is different. One minute I am cold and the next burning up. Also I have been dizzy and have no appetite. I am experiencing headaches and some nausea. I have taken 3 HPT's and all BFN! I tested on 10/21,22 and 23. Took the one today in AM (first pee). I know to be patient and I am not under stress. I just wanted to ask some opinions!!!!

I just tested positive for group B strep. I'm 37.5 weeks pregnant with my first baby, and I've read up on the bacteria and have learned a lot, but there is still something I'm curious about. I have heard of some women losing their mucus plug days or even up to a week before delivery, and I understand that the mucus plug is a protective barrier for the baby. If I lose my mucus plug, should I go straight to the hospital for antibiotics? Or is the baby okay until I am fully in labour? Please any advice would be helpful
