What's your favorite name for a baby boy?

I'd like to find one that sounds good in Portuguese AND in English at the same time, since I am Brazilian and my husband is American. I don't want a name that is "too American" or "too Brazilian"...I'd like to find a balance between the two, since our child might live in one of the two countries when he grows up.

Any suggestions?

I have 11 months old son... we are thinking about having another one after he turns 1. Maybe like when he is 1 years old and 2 months... Do you think it is too early? Diaper mode? and etc? I need your opinions and advices..

In my heart, I really want to have another one soon so my son can have a closer age sibling.

My daughter has to get a shot today and she is running around the house screeming and crying. I have to go in 20 minutes and she threatens to lock herself in the bathroom if we go. I tried to talk to her and tell her all that stuff but she could care less. I went on like 50 websites and nothing worked. Yesterday she was up ALL night crying and scared. Its impossible to get her to the car. This shot NEEDS to be done because she has a possabilty for a disease and we need to find out if she has it. I told her its just a shot, look away, everyone gets shots, think of something nice, it doesn't hurt, would you rather have this pain ful disease, blah blah blah. She doesn't care. WHAT SHOULD I DO. she is running around the house crying.

I'm pregnant and know that I am not allowed to have these types of cheeses: brie, feta, etc. I don't know what foods there are most commonly used in though?

Also, I know hot dogs, and deli meats are not supposed to be eaten, what about bologna?

Any other foods should I avoid?

I previously asked a question about my son putting his hand up in the air and making a noise sometimes. Sometimes he will also put his fingers up in front of his face and make a little noise. It tends to be if he's tired, bored, etc. For 2 yrs we didn't know many people as we moved away from family and friends. He has always been extremely affectionate, makes good eye contact and is nice to other children. My only concerns have been this noise/hand movements he makes. However he also makes loud noises when he is playing with his animal toys. He is delayed in his speech a bit, but uses phrases, some sentences, counts, knows his animals, etc. I was wondering what causes him to make these movements and noises. Could it be because he has been bored with little socialization or could it be autism? I am working on getting him into a daycare part time. We have rarely used a sitter and he rarely sees our family. I am struggling inside. Does anyone have any insight? Thanks so much...

If your kid does something bad along with one
of his friends (six year olds) and it is bad enough
that you punish your kid by not letting him go to
the ice capades (after several warnings), should you
call the other kid's parents to report what happened or
just forget about it. It's not like they murdered someone,
just kid stuff. But it seems like these days you should not
tell another parent their kid misbehaved or they get mad
at you.

I have been pregnant 2 times and both time I took a home test and they said I was pregnant. Now I think that I might be again and the home test say no. Can I still be pregnant even though the test say no?

My obgyn insisted on getting a flu shot when I went in today. I know I already asked this question, but the research I have found online says while getting a flu shot at any time during pregnancy is recommended, waiting until the second or third trimester is what most articles say. I'm hoping this shot doesn't have any harmful effects on my baby....my doctor really insisted on getting though....I've never had the flu or the flu shot until today. If you received the flu shot in early pregnancy, did everything go ok? Thanks!!

I already have a question posted about how I can't seem to actually get moving to be ready for my new baby even though I'm really excited about him and it's a planned pregnancy. But has anyone else ever felt completely absorbed in their first child with their second pregnancy? I can't seem to get enough cuddles and time in with my son. I feel completely obsessed with my son. I hate even sending him to school right now. I just can't get enough of him. Everywhere he goes in the house I feel like a lost puppy and have to follow him. I am always babying him and buying him new stuff and I haven't even bought the baby I'm five months pregnant with a single thing. I imagine some of this attachment is hormones because I cry everytime he says he loves me or if I get a headache he tries to make me lay down and wants to take care of me. He's an awesome kid.
