Pregnancy & Parenting - 15 December 2007

me and my bf have sex often. i am on B/C (but i have messed it up about 4 times this month, 2 times last week or this week i cant remember) i was a little scared of being preg right now because i was getting dizzy and not feeling well. and my doctor said it was likley. so i got a bit worried. and she gave me this paper to get tested if i dont get my period. Which i did get yesterday. and it was 4 days early. and when i woke up at 5am to use the washroom it had stopped. and it stopped till around 5 or 6pm today. so i was like ok this is good. but me and my bf wanted to have sex. so we went out and bought some condoms. and i asked if he went and he said yes. and when he pulled out the condom was torn. and i could see his penis sticking through. really bad pretty much all of it was out of the condom. and i was wondering if i should worry about being pregnant now even though im on my period and on B/C (which take in to thought i have messed up) please and thank you for your advice. .xox

How can you people say its the mothers fault? Maybe she thought the father would be a better parent? Maybe he could support her better. How is it abandonment when it was her father? http://jeniferstray.wordpress.com/2007/12/15/jessica-sherwood-i-am-sorry-for-your-loss/

This question is something I've been wondering, and I was never taught this in any of the "sex ed" classes in school.

After you have a baby, what happens "down there". Does it get nice and tight like before the baby, or will it always feel different?

I've always wondered so I'd like to hear what happens, and if you MEN and LADiES can tell me too. Thanks.

My name is Isabella Maria. Do you like it? I think Isabella is a princess name, it sounds royal. What do you think of it?

... for a "walk in the park" (where he spent many happy childhood days) and then scatter his ashes there has *ANYONE* the right to say that that is "selfish" and "just for yourself" ESPECIALLY when they never even knew him but have just married into the Family yet think that they can control it and everyones emotions too.

We have three kids. Which, if any should we send a bill to?

OK so our eldest (19) is at University.. he works part time and over the holidays he used his money to buy a return flight to Banff where he is skiing for four months. He picked up a job over there. He will return in March. We have not contributed any money towards his working holiday.

Our Son (17) is at school but has a job as a gym coach during the week after school and works setting up and dismantling seating for events on weekends. He earns $20 an hour... buys his own clothes and uses his own money for anything he wants.

Our daughter (14 and 9 months) just started at Maccas earning $6 an hour.. and sells chocolates to her school friends during the week ($400/week) to raise money for her trip to the Olympics in China (she is playing saxaphone). We won't be paying for that trip and she buys her own clothes.

Anyway... we are finding it hard to pay the mortgage .. what with three kids and all... so say you?

I am 16 and go to boarding school. By the end of the week I will be home for Christmas vacation with brother, sister and daddy for 2 and a half weeks. My sister (4 years older) and I have a rather strained relationship and we have barely even spoken or e-mailed or anything since summer. She ignores e-mails, does not return calls, and was cold to me at Thanksgiving. Things are by no means perfect with my brother but at least he will communicate like normal people do. How can I repair this or should I even try? I quench for a decent role model in the family but she is not providing that.

A little background: My mother passed away a few years ago, and then we moved because my daddy took a new job. She has always complained to daddy that he spoils me and my brother (in between our ages) takes her side. However, now daddy has a "no spoiling Lori" rule going on so she can't use that excuse any more. Why can't she just get over it and be a good sister?

Thank you and good day.

Everytime i am on here i see people asking very rudely why women have kids. Then proceed to put lower class women down for wanting a child. Does the amount of money someone has change the fact that having a child is a wounderfull thing. Just because someone is not rich they should miss out on that?

... that you should "carry on as normal" and that continuing to babysit/fetch and carry your grandsons to school will be "good for you" to help you to "snap out of it" (that is :"snap" out of losing your brother! - and that from an *ONLY* child who could never understand!).

i have a 13 month old who i can not leave with anyone without her screaming bloody murder.
if we go out i can not leave her sight.
i can't leave her in the church nursery.
We went to the ymca friday for kids play. and she sat on my lap for an hour,she would walk about 2 steps then come back to me.
if i got up she would cry and want to be held.
she is just really really attached to me. even if we are home she wants me all the time. she will play good for a few minutes then she wants me.
while i do love holding her and loving on her, i like to be able to do things around the house too
yes i am a stay at home mom. i also have a 4 y/o.
what can id o to help her cope with me leaving her?
i just got the membership to the Ymca and i'd like to be able to leave her in the daycare for an hour to exercise or somthing, but i do not want to just let her cry either.

Okay,
my sisters making money while going to college by babysitting and stuff through Craigslist. She's taking care of a 7 year old girl who's mom is a Prostitute and is with a "client" at the house right now. My sister had to take the girl to her house for the night.
This is obviously wrong and just horrible. The girl has no father and he's probably one of her mom's previous clients...I don't know if i should call Child's Services. I mean I know for sure, they'd arrest the mother and the girl would go to a foster home and her life would become even worse. Christmas is coming up and she's in school and everything. I don't even know the girl but I know the story...I feel really bad, New York is full of very disturbed people...

I know this probably sounds stupid, but I was induced to have my baby because I had high blood pressure, so I didn't get to go into labor naturally. Then my labor lasted 23 hours and they performed a c-section in the end because I had been dilated at a 5 for 16 hours. I just feel like I missed out on the whole experience of child birth and I can't stop thinking about how these other moms (2 of my friends had their babies within 2 weeks of mine) got to experience such a magical thing and I didn't. I had my baby 8 weeks ago and I love her so much, but I feel like I didn't work very hard to deliver her (though recovery was h*ll!)
Is it normal to feel that way?

Ok. I didn't even know my mom still had sex, altho its not my business. So, I just found out she is about a month pregnant, and now my dad's always clinging to her more than he used to, asking is she ok does she need to go to the bathroom, does she feel pain, etc. It's annoying and I'm 12 and don't want a freaken baby. My dad always kisses her and stuff and its annoying. I don't like it. Why is my dad like this? Whats the future going to be like? Where will I probably be on the nite of baby being born night? Thanks!! Hjope you kan answer thanks!

Does "Jack off" come to mind (if I never said anything). The hubby and I are expecting our first baby and he is set on the name Jack, but I can't help but think about Jack off. I can just see it "Where did you go Jack...to jack off?" Am I being silly?

When we were in the hospital I noticed that the diapers they provided had a yellow line at the bottom and the nurse told me that when the diaper gets wet it turns to blue.so I bought the same pampers swaddlers newborn from the store an I didnt find that yellow line thing, it was just plain?

Does any one know whether we can get those kind of diapers like I mentioned above?
