Its been 2 years since ttc, same disappointing story every month, am beginning to think its just not worth so much of pain, maybe I shud just give up...

On top of all this there are people who taunt and ask stupid question as to why I cant have a baby...I mean I know they shud just go to hell, but it hurts at times.

Sorry for being such a grump, but one of those days when u feel like nothing is worth it !

I am a little over a week overdue. I have been told that if I don't have this baby by monday that I will have to be induced. I would like to have this baby naturally without any form of inducing if possible and would like to hear of anything that I can do to bring on laybor that you have tried and it has worked. I have heard that drinking castor oil works but I would preffer to try and induce myself without getting the runs. Can anyone please advise me of anything they have tried and success has followed. I am just really anticipating the moment of holding my baby in my hands. What should I do?

the person who witnessed it is refusing to report it. The person won't report it, because they don't want to get the family member in trouble, and they are also afraid of the government trying to take the children away from the family. Is there something I could do in this situation to intervene for these little children, even though I don't live in the same state as them and I haven't witnessed the abuse and neglect myself?

I did my 1st Round of Clomid 50mg CD 5-9 last cycle. I took it Aug 29 - Sept 2nd. I waited and waited and no sign of AF and got like 6 BFN. I finally called my Dr and he told me to take Provera. Took it CD 40-44 and my cycle lasted 46 days.

So my question is.. since my AF didnt come on its own does that mean I didnt Ovulate? I asked my Dr if I should by OPK's and he said to wait till I get AF on my own or it would be wasting my money. I didn't ask him what he meant by that, but Im assuming he meant I haven't ovulated, is that correct?

My son is 2 and 1/2, he seems to suffer from what I think is mild anxiety, and he is very obsessive compolsive with things. If we are out anywhere, he wants to go home, when he says words, he never just says them once he says then around 5 to 10 times, If something goes wrong he is easily frustrated and squeels, he lines his cars up in a perfect line and will stare at them from every angle, he will then one by on turn them around and hen study them from that angle, he is a pretty goo easy kid most of the time but theese things are worrying me. Is this common in young children? Would you take your child to a doctor about this behavour?

Though you had concerns.. did having a baby improve your life? Was it a good change?
Would you change anything at all about timing?

Did you have any concerns that turned out not to be a cause for concern?

weather or not you trust them, do you think it's better to never put the child OR the adult inthe position for something questionable to happen?

I am getting frustrated with my husband. I am trying to find a boy's name for our one of the way and he is not into it. He hardly suggests any names! Does anyone else have this problem? It makes me mad! Also, these are the names I like what do you think, suggestions to similar names are welcome. I do not like common over used names! Thanks.

Are naked infants offensive???

I can not see how, but others seem to think so. If this is so, are both male and female infants offensive. or just one sex.

And for those of you who are still under the rule of your parents, What is the ONE thing that they do, that you don't plan to do when you become a parent?

And if you don't plan on having kids, What is the ONE thing that parents do that drive you up the wall?

OK here it goes the father of my baby is talking about signing over his rights and the guy i am with now wants to be in the room when i have the baby. The bio-father called me the other day and he is going to be back from iraq when i have the baby and wants to be in the room but he keeps telling me that is not going to change anything he is going to sign the rights over to my soon to be husband in about 2 weeks. the baby is due in 6 weeks. If he is going to sign the rights over then why does he want to be in the room with me. He has a wife and she is not happy about this. I think she is more mad because i am having a girl and she has two boys by him and she knows he always wanted a girl. Anyways my soon to be husband is going to be in there for sure. What about the bio-father what do u think i should do??

My twin girls are 1 yrs old and I'm ready to potty train them. I thought it would be easy but i couldn't get them to sit still. My mother says that they are not ready yet. But I think other wise.
I really want to potty train them early because most people I know wait to long to potty train their kids. My nephew is 2 and he is not potty train and he so tall he looks 3 or 4. I couldn't see myself changing my kids being that size. what should I do?
