Alexandra Lee?My friend's mom is having a baby and said she liked this name and planned on calling her Alex. I think Lee kind of sounds like a boy's name, especially with the Alex as a first name. Can Lee be a boy's or a girl's name?

My stepmother has shingles. I have never had chicken pox before. I am 15 weeks pregnant. Can I celebrate Christmas in the same house as her? Should I stay away from her? By the way, she will not be cooking anything.

I am now 19 years old, but when I am around 27 years old I do plan on adopting a baby boy, not old than 2 years old. Yes, I do want my own child biologically, but I do want to adopt a child preferrably a baby boy, and one of a race other than my own. I don't think I will ever get married, because I know i could not commit myself to the same person for 10, 20, or 30 years or longer, so I wouldn't put myself in that predicament. However I do want my own children biologiclly no more than 2 biologically. Which I would hope to have primarily in my custody. When I woud adopt would the child be mine, and could he stay in my care. Once i sign papers could his birth parents take him back? I plan on caring for him, loving him like my own, and buying him nice things, but will he love me back? I know lots of adoptive parents out there abuse their kids, but i wouldn't do that, I would truly be there for him emotionally and financially, I'd spoil him. I would truly care for him. Advice

It's Christmas, Im supposed to be happy, cheerful, and excited to wake up tomorrow and open gifts, but I'm not. I'm very sad and it's for a number of reasons (family/friend issues etc)but I just want to be happy RIGHT NOW.
What is something I can do (besides pressing my busy mom to sit and talk about stuff) to get my mind off things? This is Christmas and I want to be happy, not all depressed.

I am so excited..I told my mom before I told my boyfriend...

I need a cute way of telling him...

I thought maybe giving him a Christmas card, and on the envelope putting "Dad" which would make him think it was from our dog. Then inside putting "Dear Daddy, Merry Christmas. I just wanted to let you know we will be meeting in August 2008. Love Your Christmas Baby (and his last name)"

But I would love some other suggestions.

OMG! I cannot believe this is happening, I cant stop crying..from happiness.

Merry Christmas everyone!

My fiance and I plan to get married Oct. 2008. 2 weeks ago my cousin offered for me to adopt her unborn child (due May 2008). I can not have children. So this would be the closest thing i would ever have to a biological child. The baby would be white/mexican mix and he can't deal with that. Does anyone have any advice as to how to get him to warm up to the idea? I have told him that if it came down to me choosing. I would choose the child. I've wanted a child alot longer than i have wanted him. But want to keep both. Any ideas?

My fiance and I are ttc. I had my period last november 15th but only lasted for 2 days, then after that, I know it was way too early, but I started feeling cramps, feeling nausea, and thought I was pregnant. My fiance insists that I am. So I went to the doctor and had 2 urine and one blood test through out 2 weeks and they were all negative. My period, well what I think is my period, started yesyerday. But it isnt heavy like it usually is. I was just wondering if anyone out there thought they had their period but was indeed pregnant. I dont want to get my hopes up and think its implantation bleeding or something like that and turns out its just my period so Im going to see an obgyn this thursday. Is it possible to be say 4 or 5 weeks pregnant and tests still say negative?

I refuse to clean my childrens room for them!!! I have two girls ages 4 and 8. They share a bedroom and they have a playroom attatched. I have been telling them for 2 months to clean both rooms. They sit up there and play and fight. When I ask them if they are almost done they reply with "almost" or "not yet" I give them time limits or there will be punishment. Like have it done in 3 hours or you're going to bed an hour early. MY KIDS HAVE NOT WATCHED T.V., PLAYED OUTSIDE, STAYED UP LATE ON WEEKENDs in weeks.
They dont care!!!
Now it is Christmas Eve and Ive been telling them all weekend " If you do not have your rooms cleaned by Christmas, You will not open your presents. They will sit there under the tree untill the rooms are clean."
Its 9:30 pm and they keep comming down stairs to tattle on each other and Still i hear them up there playing.....
What is wrong with my kids? Then my 8 year old has the nerve to tell me she dosnt want any presents.

Okay, so i was fooling around (with a condom) with my boyfriend a week and a half before my last period. But My period was supposed to arrive a few days a go or today (I'm bad with my schedules of expecting it) anyways. I was extremely stressed out this past month anyways...about school and my boyfriend. and I'm not sure what to think. Even thought I haven't had any cravings besides going to the food store and seeing something that looks good and getting it...and I pee on my regularly day basis. But maybe this is just to calm me down. I'm not sure...but idk what to think

I am 8 weeks 3 days pregnant and when I go to pee and wipe there is very little blood on the paper. This is my 1st baby and I just want to make sure everything is alright. It is christmas eve and I dont wanna go to the er unless I really need to. I had implantation bleeding at 5 weeks went to er and they confirmed that, had ultrasound 2 weeks ago and baby was fine. So is it normal for there to be blood even though its a very small amount? I just notcied it about 30 min ago and there was like 2 spots on my panties.

I swear when I come on here all I see is little teenagers asking dumb questions if they are pregnant. Am I the only person who thinks their parents need to buy them a chastity belt?

I took it today after having been one day late - my husband says it's positive, and I just needed a second opinion... I don't want to let my family/friends know yet, so I figured I'd post here to see if others have had a test that looked similar and were indeed pregnant.

The weird thing is, I still have cramps, so I don't know what that means! I've heard it IS common for that to happen in early pregnancy, though.

Any advice would help. Thanks!
