Pregnancy & Parenting - 21 November 2007

I am pregnant with my second daughter and my husband and I have picked out a first and middle name that goes really well together. I like the combination enough that I am considering making it a two part first name. Here are my questions:

Do people with two part first names really have two first names, or is it a first and middle name on the birth certificate?

Do people with two first names have a middle name as well? or two middle names?

If you have two first names, do you wish you were given a middle name?

Ever have problems with a name that was too long?

The part of the decision that I am wrestling with, is that the two names together will be 12 letters long (but only 3 syllables). Also, I do not refer to my first daughter by her first and middle name, so why would I do so with my second? Unless of course, both names were her first name.

If anyone could be of help in assisting me with my decision that would be great. Any usefull input would be appreciated.

i am 27 weeks today and i am not enjoying being pregnant at all! Im always in pain from bub sitting on nerves in my back, i feel crampy, i feel really stretched and have stretch marks every where, i dont sleep very often cause of all the hormones and my heart is always racing, im always feeling sick and i can barely eat half the time cause my little boy gets under my ribs and pushes up on my stomache!

I thought pregnancy is supposed to be a beautiful thing but i feel like a baby elephant at the moment! The only thing i enjoy is feeling him kick and wriggle. But i want him out already, of coarse i want him to be healthy but i want my body back too. How am i going to cope with the rest of the pregnancy if i feel like this already? Is anyone else 27 weeks and feeling like this?

If you were angry at your teen and we always getting into arguments, would you threaten to call one of their friends and tell that friends the teens bad habits and everything you didnt like about the teen, so that friend wouldnt want to ever talk to the teen ever again?

Im 18 and my friend is 23 and I also really like him alot.

Why do sOme Abortion protesters and sOme pro life Extremists, seem to miss the big picture.What I mean is that after the baby is born they don't seem to care what happens to them after they are Born, suffering and in foster Care.

MAKES ZERO SENSE.

I work in Social Service, and have never seen a pro life protester adopt or protest to promote to adopt an Orphan baby that really needs care and love .

Why are they only picketing outside a clinic and harassing people ....what a waste of their energy.Why not do something more productive like help the children that are already here on this Earth....What is the real reason for abortion protesters to protest and picket, when they can be way more productive and protest to save babies that are already here.....Or for that matter Innocent Endangered animals that are on the brink of Extinction.MAKES NO SENSE TO ME!

Is it true that Pro life Extremist and abortion protesters are in it for an extra brownie point from God when the meet their maker

Has anyone here had an ectopic pregnancy? I'm seven weeks pregnant, had a m/c 2 months ago and having pains on my right side where I'm thinking my ovaries are. I had it last night, went away this morning and now came back. It's the same type of pain as when you run and get those stings in your side, only that it's on my right and lower....just wondering....or is that just early stretching?

This will be my daughter's first christmas, and I'd like to make christmas about family instead of presents. I don't want her to be looking forward to christmas because of all the "stuff" she gets. I don't mean that we won't exchange gifts, I just want her to have a more traditional christmas. Any ideas?

I was born a Hermaphrodite but I had more male organs present. My parents are naturists and didn't want anything removed but because I didn't fully develop I was given hormone therapy . I am pretty much man. I was with another man and what is scaring me is my stomach seems to be growing.

I never had menses, is it possible I could be pregnant or impossible? I don't want to go to the Dr because I don't want him to know I was with a man that way. I have had spotting off and on throughout my life and slight breast development but hormone replacement treatments I received kept that in check.

A little while ago I stopped taking them because I didn't see use anymore and it caused acne and I think mood swings.

Just tell me serious advice, especially if you have medical background in this area

I can not decide which one of these I like the best... our last name is Roshy (like Rah not Row) and we have a daughter named Kendal Cora and a son named Caleb Roland (like Rah not Row). Feel free to change the middle names

I have always hated it as a girl's name, but loved it for boys. Would it be a weird name for a boy now that most Morgans are girls?

It sounds silly, but I envy people who have kids that look a lot like them. I think it's cute when someone says "Wow, you look just like your mom" My daughter doesn't look like myself or my husband, except that she has his curly hair and my legs. She's only 3 so maybe she'll look more like me over time. Can anyone relate to this? Happy Thanksgiving by the way!

This is for a novel that I am writing.

This little girl is 7yrs old.. Her name is Lily. She was raised by a man named paul, who exploits her abilities for his own selfish gain.

Lily is taught to obey commands from someone she considers as poweful. She obeys Paul's every command, like a dog. She has been used to kill innocent people, even her own mother.

When Paul was arrested for kidnapping and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Lily was asleep at the time. She was taken to a childrens home. When she wakes up, she realizes that her master isnt here. She threatens to kill the other children if noone takes her to him. The staff injected some drug that calms her down. Lily doesnt want to play with the other children. She's always alone.

The other children are afraid of her, so if she see people run away from her, she gets apprehensive.

She's 7 yr old, and she can barely speak. I think the only word she can say is "Master" nothing else.

How would you describe this girl?

Despite being called "his pet". she actually takes that as a sign of love. She really shows affection for him. Paul is the only one she knows.

She doesnt know what a mommy or daddy is. She can't talk at all.

Do you guys think she has a mental disorder? If so what Is it and how can it be treated?

How would you describe this little girl in one word?

My 16 mth old is a very active little boy and sweats alot, the fact that we live in a tropical island doesn't help either. Anyway we discovered that his underarm had a very high smelling odor does anyone know what i could do to prevent it or explain to me how is that possible he's a baby.

Hi all! I got my positive pregnancy test this morning and my period isn't even officially late yet!

My question is: if you get a super dark positive on your pregnancy test before you are even late for your period, does that mean you have a good chance of having twins?

I am kinda worried because I am 13 days past ovulation today and my test I took this morning was after I had already peed 3 times and drank a whole bunch so my pee was probably pretty diluted and the positive line was still super super dark!

I am a very small girl and I don't think my body can handle twins, so I'm hoping this isn't a sign....

Thanks!

My water broke 3 weeks ago, i am 32 weeks pregnant and the doctor wants me to go as long as i can. But no further then 36 weeks which means we would be in the hospital for christmas. I could go at anyt ime tho because my water has broke. The doc did say that if i did go in labour they wouldnt stop me and said they would not have any concerns because the babies lungs and organs are fully developed. He is perfectly healthy and very active(happy) So what's stopping them from giving me my section? How come they cant speed this up? I am loosing my mind in this hospital. What can i do to get this thing started?
