Pregnancy & Parenting - 22 December 2007

I'm not having any other signs and my period isn't due until tomorrow. So, I can't test until then, but I was just curious!

especially if the other parent was a close friend of yours (we're talking 15-20 year friendship) and the children are 8-9 years old.

Well I am a first time mom. My baby will be 2 months old tomorrow. Sometimes I just feel like I don't want anything to do with the baby. This is very rare that I feel like this but I do. Does that make me a bad person? It's not that I don't love him cause I do more than anything in the world. Somebody please give me some clarity.

I was just wondering if you were currently using the birth control pill, and started using a nicotine patch (for the last couple weeks), if it could cause the effects of using a birth control pill to not work as effectively.

He usually sleeps straight at daytime, but very much awake at night time. Can I change the sleeping time? or I still have to wait for a few months?

ok say a user answered a question and were given 1 or more thumbs down, then they go back and add this on to their answer "whyd i get a thumb(s) down?" is it just me or is that annoying? as great as you may be not everyone is going to agree with you..

I want to know if I am being selfish or not or what you guys think of this situation...
Last year for Christmas and my b-day (January) I got many gifts. It was good and all. All of them were not for ME, but for my unborn baby. I was greatful and I didn't mid at all mainly. This year however, a lot of gift I don't know what they are but are supposedly to ME, but are for my son. For example, my brother said the gift is for my son, but it is my gift too. Now, I don't want to be selfish or anything and this time is not just for gifts, I know, but I feel left out. You know what I'm sayin? I want something foe me too, you know? I mean, I got nothing for ME at all last year. I had gotten a swing, stroller, baby clothes, etc. last year. My brother even said for my b-day, he got something for my son. I don't understand why my present is actually for my son. I really am not a selfish person or trying to be. I just really feel left out and sad. Am I being selfish? What do you think?

So, I had to run to the store tonight for milk, and I saw something that disturbed me. Next to the milk section, they had the Hershey's chocolate syrup display, but they had this new (or I think it's new) product called Magic Milk Mix. They make milk flavorings that "taste" like cotton candy, bubblegum and a few others. I was slightly appalled by the fact that they think there is a need for milk tasting like candy.

Curious, I compared the labels, and Nesquik, Hershey's and the store brand had a lot less sugar. Magic Milk is pure sugar with a lot of other uneccesary chemicals.

I'm just wondering if anyone has every used this brand, and if so, what were your reasons for using pure sugar to make your children drink milk?

Here's a link to a blog reviewing Magic Milk, since I can't find an actual website for the company.

There have been a lot of news articles about fluoridation the last two months. Cali pushing for it in certain counties, and Alaska pushing to remove from their state[which they now have].
http://www.fluoridealert.org/news/index.php

So this made me actually look into fluoride. I sort of feel like I was completely oblivious all along about fluoride. The thing is, I tried discussing this with friends, and said it was 'new momma paranoia'. I was a bit offended, but I know they didn't even bother to look at reports from the ADA [American dental assoc.] CDC, or WHO [World Health]

I wondered if anyone limits fluoride intake or plans to?

For anyone that does not know what I am talking about..
A few facts I found..

My name is Carrie, I have had 2 miscarriages, my first one I was 21 weeks, my second I was 10 weeks along, they were 3 years apart. I have been so so afraid to try again, even though the doctors call it a fluke, I have been tested and they say they do not see any reason I couldn't have a healthy child. I am so afraid that I'll be to scared to try again.

Recently, I attended my son's school christmas concert. He played his trombone and it was all marvellous. However, my son made it very clear afterwards that he was ashamed of me because I wear underpants over my trousers. It is a lifestyle choice, I like the look. I explained to him that people are allowed to wear what they like, but he fails to understand this. How can I convince my son and his peers that wearing a pair of Y-fronts over your courdoroys is perfectly normal?

I am a 13 y/o boy. This may sound gross, but I like "playing" with myself. I would like to know if it is normal for boys and girls to play with themselves. I think it is but I want to know how many do it so I am not alone. Thanks for your support.

Everlie.
It would be for a girl...
I love the 'ie' at the end because it makes it look more femineine.
Does it sounds pretty? What would be a good nickname and middle name?

Thanks bunches!

Also, would it go with the sisters names: Genevieve, Anneliese, and Karlie?

But there was a really disturbing part that i dont know what to do. There were digital pictures of me at the beach half naked with comments next to them he photo shopped in. This is seriously wierd what should I say?

I'm 34 weeks pregnant with our first. I started to have contractions at around 32 weeks and the doc gave me some medicine to stop the contractions when I'm having them. The baby is a very healthy boy that weighs 6.5 pounds. Anyway, I'm just wondering if having sex with my hubby puts me at a higher risk for going into labor?
