Pregnancy & Parenting - 29 November 2007

I was told after my ultrasound that my baby might have one of these. I refused amnio and am now waiting for the blood test results. I am keeping the baby. If the blood test shows I am really in a high risk for DS or ES, is the delivery going to be any different?

me and my boyfriend have unprotacted sex, but he ALWAYS pulls out and my friends say thats about the most relieable method of BC other than abstinance.
anyway i havent got a period in 3 months and i thought nothin of it but over this last week my pants are tighter.but i never exercise so i could just be gettin fatter.

plus my periods been 2 weeks late before and no probs so im guessin my periods irreglar.

well im not a mom yet but i have strong beliefs about it. i feel spanking is wrong and lazy and hypocritical, i believe boundaries are very important and its wrong to spoil a child but they are people too and their feelings matter and they should also be treated with respect as much as you expect it, and that you shouldn't judge your child for their orientation or any other reason that you should love them unconditionally, and that being affectionate with your children is very important. i also feel that one of the greatest gifts you can give your child is to feed them healthily from the beginning, even if you can't.

i believe in positive time out, i think yelling is wrong, but i also think letting your children run the show is incredibly harmful for them.

anyone agree?

I was talking with a gentleman today that told me quite a horror story about an adopted girl that accused him of molestation. They took the three girls out of the home and basically cleaned him out financially. There is no way that this guy was a Pedofile.

I don't say that because I think I know, it is a cold hard fact and it was proven he was innocent.

Is Social Service praying on children as a means to tap into our money?

Do they have too much power?

What if you are next?

On behalf of my new contact shelly s, I bring this question to you.

Shelly has an unnamed condition in which she bleeds quite heavily and for long periods of time - almost to death - because the lining in her uterus is too thin. She would have a hard time getting pregnant because the embryos can't implant properly, causing her to miscarry. At 16, she was told that she might never get pregnant, but if she ever planned on doing so, she would have to start as soon as possible. She had her first child at 17 (due to medical reasons, she said) and she is now 22, married with two kids, and she went in for her hysterectomy two days ago. Most people in her situation would have to have this done when they're in their 20's, or perhaps even ealy 30's.

My question is, if your child were in the situation as described above, told she needs to get pregnant now or never, would you go for it? Or would you tell her to get her life in order, then consider adoption if it'll be too late?

Given ecstasy's lets go hug everyone and be freinds effect.

Would it not make more sense to research a similar drug withtout out the dangerous side effects and encourage its use instead of violence inducing alchol.

Aubrianne Juliet

(Last name is 2 Sylablles)

I really like this name... And it also incorportes Ann and Julie, which are our deceased Grandmas. Those two ladies were a very important part of my husband and I's life.

My concern is that it is such a mouthful.....Do you think this is too much or should I just go with what I like?
Thanks!

Hi for the past couple of days I have been noticing that my 2 1/2yr old daughter blinks normal than usual, almost like as if her eyes where dry or bothering her. I ask her if her eyes hurt...and she says no. She mostly does it when she is looking at books or the tv. Has this ever happened to anyone else;s baby they ended up needing glasses?? Is this a sign that she can't see well??

I am currently 29 weeks with my first child. I have loved this little one since the day I saw the 2 lines on the HPT! But now that it is getting closer to my due date, I am getting nervous. I feel her moving and I just think to myself, wow, she id going to be here very soon. What am I going to do? Will everything just come naturally to me? Will I be a good mom to her?

Did anyone else have these feelings? How did things go after you brought your baby home? Did everything come naturally?

I am 21, married for 3 years to my husband, so I am bringing this baby into a stable life but I am still worried.

I am 11.1 weeks pregnant today, and since day one I have had "Menstrual like cramping." It isn't a painful kind of cramping, just VERY uncomfortable. I have had NO bleeding what so ever since I have been pregnant, and my pregnancy symptoms have not decreased. It is ok to get this cramping just about everyday?? Has anyone else had these cramps and the baby be ok??

My baby was 129 at 7 weeks + one day. Does that sound right? What was your baby's heart rate and at what weeks? I am asking becasue my last pregnancy was a miscarriage, but it was 144 at 6 weeks 5 days. It seems like this current pregnancy should be a little faster if the last one miscarried and was 144. What do you think?

This is really a VERY serious question in order to possibly help some teens on here. I don't condone it but I personally , would put my daughter on birth control as my mother did for me. Girls ALWAYS say "I can't tell my parents because they'll kill me" or similar. NO ONE IS GOING TO KILL YOU OR HATE YOU. I'm a mom of a son and he and his fiance got pregnant young. BOTH though they were going to deal with HELL. Guess what?? Things happens (just don't do it on purpose please) but when things "happen" you "deal " with them. Both of the families came together for TOTAL support. The mom has stayed in school and working and my son is almost a corpsman now. My 13 month old grandson is AWESOME and very much loved (and SO are his parents). I hope adults answer on here. What would you do if you child (teenager 16+) came home and told you they were pregnant or got someone pregnant - or do you have a story relating to this?

My friend found out she's having twin girls. Im the god mother and she said I can choose their middle names and we both agree that we like the sick cute matching names. An example of what I want to do with their middle names Cara and Mia and if you put it together its Caramia which means My love. Any one know of names that match like that. Something cute?

I have a baby girl that is almost 10 months old, im trying to get her to sleeping alone. We will not sleep in her crib at all, she will sleep anywhere else but as long as shes being held or someone is laying next to her. If i even get up to use the bathroom, she wakes right up and starts screaming. So, im trying to get her used to sleeping by herself so i can start putting her in her bed again. Her crib sits right next to my bed in the room and she still wont. BUT, i was wondering if anyone has any ideas to help it go a little smoother, specally because my husband doesnt like to see her cry so he gives in and picks her up and just lays next to her the whole time she naps, which sometimes is 4 hours. (Of course hes not home THAT much so its not that stressful for him so he doesnt see the big deal about it, but when im home alone and cant use the restroom without the baby freaking out on me then its different). I need some suggestions if anyone has been through this before. Thanks.
