Pregnancy & Parenting - 27 November 2007

I am 10 weeks pregnant, i found out when i was 6 weeks. I'm worried sick because i drank heavily every weekend before i knew. I had a wedding, 30th party, holiday etc. I have read about FAS. Could i have done damge to my unborn baby? I havn't touched a drop since i found out. I have heard that in the early stages of pregnancy the baby is not yet feeding from the mother because it's organs have not yet formed. Is there any evidence that drinking in just early stages, before you know you are pregnant, can cause FAS or any damage? Please help.

Okay, here is the situation. Some people feel the need when I meet them to ask about my adoption. I'm nornally a very private person and I really don't like telling people my business and all. I mean it's pretty obvious that I'm adopted because my parents are white and I'm bi-racial. It's the very personal questions, that I don't like. For example "How was it being raised by two white people?" Or "Do you know where you came from?" My favorite is "How does it feel being adopted?" I feel that they are private questions and i only express myself to close friends. Does anyone know how I can handle these questions? I appericate all answers.
Thanks,
Healing Adoptee

In this day and age, it seems that the children in society are becoming more rebellious against the parents. Children have always been rebellious, it's their nature. But now it seems like they have gone the extra step and are blaming parents for a lot of their problems. Do you think this is right?

I am not a parent yet, but I grew up in a disfunctional family that abused me. All my life I have been told to respect them. To love them. To honor them. But I can' t help feeling that they don't deserve it.

So my question is, do all children really need to respect and "love" their parents even if the parents don't deserve it? Also, is it okay for children to blame their parents for circumstances beyond their control? Or is doing this just a coverup that children use for their own insecurities?

I have a 4 year old daughter who, for the most part, is extremely well behaved. My problem is that I have a sister who constantly feels the need to discipline her for the most rediculous things constantly. For instance, my daughter is sitting at MY table and she's pretty short so she sits on her knees. As I am sitting right there my sister tells her to sit on her bottom. Not the greatest example, but the most recent. It's constantly going on. I only see my sister once every 2 weeks or so because of this. I would also like to mention that she has no children, no experience with children or anything. I have several friends that have children the same age and I have no problem with either of them correcting her, or telling her what or what not to do. My sister is the only one that seems annoyed with everything my daughter does and always feels the need to correct her even with me and my husband around. Any advice on how to deal with this without causing family drama?

I am donating some toys to a Christmas raffle this year, and can buy any toys for any aged child. I would like to buy a variety of toys, and am thinking of spending a total of about $200. I am looking for some great ideas - what toys does your child really love (or want) this year?

I'm going to be 20 weeks pregnant 2 days after christmas my doctor wants us to wait til we are 22 weeks pregnant to have an ultrasound done. I really don't want to wait that long with my daughter she told me at 16 or 17 weeks. Is there anywhere else you can go to get an ultrasound?I really wanted to be able to tell everyone at christmas what we were having and infact we had the idea of not finding out and having the tech write down what it is and opening at christmas. So is there anyway i can get one or anywhere else? we live in arkansas i dont know if that really matters or not but thank you.

to run crazy in the library? I was in the library last night and this man was talking to some woman (flirting) at the time his small son (about 4-5) was literally screaming and acted like he was flying down the isles. Dad only laughed at him, this went on for a good 10 minutes until I had to leave. Anyone else think this is ok (yes I mentioned it to the librarian but she shrugged it off)?

They even have a childrens room on the other side of the library that children can play in

Baby girl names. I like more traditional names, but I am open to unique names too, just not too off the wall unique.

I seriously don't even know what to get my child for Christmas. He has named off a couple of small things but I wanted to get him something big from "Santa Claus". He is so fascinated with those little play kitchen sets, you know the one for little girls. I found one at Wal-Mart but I am so unsure whether or not I should get it. Does it seem right for little boys to play with kitchen stuff and tea sets? That is what I was needing the opinion about. There is one over at his Grandmas house, it is very old and it belonged to both of my older neices. I dont see anything wrong with him playing with one. What do yall think? What it be GAY to buy a little boy a kitchen set if he likes to play with one?

Seriously, how can they legally let that happen? My friend's friend is a single male and he adopted a child ... and not just any child ... a female child. They usually don't let that happen, so I don't know how he got around the system. Its the most disgusting thing I've ever heard in my life. How can they legally let that happen? That sick bastard probably only wants it for one thing.

What's wrong with people these days?

My four children are 11, 8, 6, and 4 years old. Their grandmother is ill and expected to pass on within the next few days. They've never had to face the death of a loved one until now. I will discuss with them what will happen and we talk about our feelings but I wondered if anyone had any ideas, based on their own experiences, for how I can help them to cope.
