Ok.. So the U/S tech said like 90% a boy.. we are going to reconfirm it next month. but.. My husband and I are both Muslim and live in USA. W are looking at baby boy names and I never thought it would be so complicated. We want names that are Muslim/arabic/american .universal.. We have considered..
Noah, Adam, Jacob, Zachariah, and so on..
But my main question is..
Would it be ok to name a muslim boy Isaac? That is my favorite name and I keep getting different things from family about the root of the name. I know its our child and our choice but I just want to make sure it would be ok.. Because I have heard its a jewish name.. Please help for those who know...
Thanks

Hi there,
I'm kind of confused and need some help. I had sex last month [9.10.07] and I was supposed to get my period on the 23rd but it never came and this month I missed my period too. I had protected sex we used a condom, but he did ejaculate into the condom while still in me [sorry if thats too much info, but im really confused]. I have always been regular so I went out and bought some home pregnancy tests [3 clear blue and 3 first response] I took 3 last night and 3 this morning all of them were positive except for 2. So am I pregnant? How far along would be if I am pregnant? thanks so much.

For a Girl we like Claire, but we like the middle names of Eden, Rose, Fay, and Hazel

For a Boy we like Samuel, Thomas, and Grant we like Kent for the middle name, except for Grant. Kent is my deceased brother and I would like to honor him if possible.

Can you help me on the girl's middle names, and help me narrow down the boys names???

By the way, we have a VERY italian last name. My first two children are Nina Marie and Anthony Michael.

I'm trying to find a gynecologist in the Chicago area that is supportive of a vaginal birth after 2 c-sections. Does anyone know of any or where I can go to find one? I'm not pregnant yet, just getting prepared because I would like to start trying to conceive around the beginning of 2008. Thank you for your help!

Help!

I am 10 week pregnant. Since my 6th week, i have been sick like hell. My doctor put me on diclectin and that helped. But i have a husband who is clearly out of his mind. He continously keeps telling me that i am not eating enough protein or enough food to help the baby. The sight of food makes me sick. I took him to my doctor and the doctor told him to leave me alone and let me eat whatever my heart desires. But he is just not ready to accept the doctors words. He harrases me and tells me how i donot eat enough . I can barely look a t foood and eat it. Declectin has helped and i do eat, but meat makes me sick and i cannnot even look at it. My husband just does not understand the level of sickness a pregnant women faces. He forces me to take my multivitamins and each time i do, I throw up. Can some please help me with any suggestions how to aske this guy to BACK OFF??? I am under a lot of stress as a result of this and worried that this would effect the bby

I have a nanny job taking care of two disabled brothers and the parents both work. They are almost $2,000 behind in paying me. I want to quit, but feel bad because the boys really need someone that will treat them good. The oldest one is autistic and severe ADHD and the youngest cannot walk, or talk..they are still doing testing to find out what is wrong. I know they have a lot of medical debt, but I cannot afford to keep working for them. I am really torn as to what to do. My husband and I are having to borrow money to keep our power from being shut off. I know if I quit they will do the same thing to the next person. I found this job through craigslist. Should I post an ad on there saying they should not work for this couple because of payment problems? I hate to do this, but I would hate to have someone else get taken in by them.

He died this morning. I had a fun day after that happened. I went to a park with two of my friends, my mom, and my nephew and we ate lunch from Wendy's at the park. But now, as I sit here with nothing to do on a Sunday night, I can't get my mind off of it. I am so upset and sad. I don't want a new guinea pig. I only had him for a month or so, and he was only about a year old. What went wrong? *sniff*

ok this is going to sound a little crazy.. i am 7 months post pardum i breastfeed my son the first 2 months of his life and then he was put on special formula because of digestive problems.. anyways I am currently pregnant i never really dried up from him, but now that i am pregnant my breast are full again and when i express the nipple i get a white not clear substance (which makes me think its milk). My question is could I possibly pump and get milk and if i could could i give it to my son in a bottle?? Or is that just weird?? So confused but hes digestive things have cleared and Id rather him have breast milk than Formula. Serious educated answers please.. what do you think?
