Pregnancy & Parenting - 30 November 2007

My friend thought that she was havign two girls! She was SO sure. But she went to the doctor today and found out it was a girl and a BOY! She still wants me to help name them though and she like the name Nadia for the girl. I thought it would be cute to do Aidan for the boy...but would it be OK if it was spelt that way? It's Nadia backwards. I thought it would be a cute twin touch without being TOO obvious...

Hi everyone. I recently gave birth to my second child on Monday and he came at 32 weeks. I am trying to breastfeed him (I did not BF with my first) and I just want to make sure I'm pumping right. My son is in the NICU so I have to pump. I'm trying to get my supply started and I have a little, but I'm only getting about 15 ML altogether at each pumping session. I'm using an Evenflo Double Electric Pump. After my milk comes completely in, how much should I be getting if I pump for 20 minutes? Also, do I need to wake up through out the night to pump or would I be okay if i pumped before bed and as soon as I woke up? Any information is greatly appreciated as I have no idea what to expect nor do I know what exactly I'm doing. Thanks in advance!!

BTW - I'm not only pumping to start my supply, but to take into the NICU for my baby.

the #996 name for 2006 was "neveah"...people - that's heaven spelled backwards INCORRECTLY. it spells "haeven"

what are your opinions about the craze with names like navaeh and the ever-popular jayden?

jayden is #334 on the social security list and, as babynames.com claims, it is made-up. "The meaning of the name Jaden is Combination Of Jay And Aiden"

All she does is whine and missbehave. My daughter plays with her. Is it right to ask the teacher to seperate them to and see if she is the problem on my daughter?

I've read a lot of questions and answers in the adoption forum from people who say that, if they'd been given the choice, they'd have chosen their birth mothers over their adoptive families. That's fine. I was not adopted so I don't know how those people feel. What I want to know is: what are those people doing to help preserve families worldwide? Do any of you sponsor children in other countries through organizations like Christian Children's Fund? It's not an adoption agency; it provides food and education to children who desperately need it. Are you sponsoring some of these kids so that they aren't adopted or do you just like to complain?

It doesn't matter what or how much he eats/drinks, he is always throwing up, it stinks like throw up but looks like spit up. He is in the 85% for height and 20% for weight. His Dr doesn't seem worried at all, but I am. I also have to change mine and his outfit 3-4 times a day, (hello laundry). Any ideas i could get him tested for, acid reflux, or I heard someone say maybe his valve isn't fully developed, what does that mean??? Any ideas, thought would be great!!!!!!!

A friend of mine would like to buy it for my son for Christmas because she thought it was really cute, but I have heard from some people that it portrays adoption in a bad way. I was wondering if anyone here has seen it and if so, what was your take on the portrayal of adoption.
