I have heard that it is customary to give a gift to your partner after the birth of a child. What do you think a good gift would be? And what dollar amount would be appropriate? I'm thinking a nice necklace would be good, but i wanted to get other opinions. For the wives out there, what did you get (if anything)?

So I just got married and the talk of kids has come up for months now. I feel totally ready. I'm 26, have my masters, and a stable job. My husband is 32, stable job and has his bachelors. We've been together for nine years and own our home. He says he wants kids too, but not now because he doesn't feel financially secure. We do have debt, but it is manageable and we're not living paycheck to paycheck, we have some savings. I asked him where he felt we should be before he is comfortable and I was shocked at his answer! I told him realistically to be that financially secure would take us 5 years and I am not interested in waiting that long. His response to that was we'll see and he gave me the impression he didnt want to talk about it anymore. So, after all that my question is whether I should just leave this alone or try and talk with him about it further? I don't want to be a nag, but not even trying until we're 31 and 36 troubles me, especially if we have trouble conceiving!

Do you think that 21 is too young to have a baby? I turn 21 this month. Me and my fiance have decided to try and conceive. We are financially stable, I have always wanted kids, and I raised my niece and nephew when I was still in high school so I know the full time reponsibility of raising a baby. My mom is mad at me though and said that I am too young. I dont want to have a baby when I am older I want to be young enough to enjoy all of life with my baby. What do you think? Thanks.

In general, I mean a well-behaved 7-year-old girl. I'm making a comic, and she's the daughter of the main character, but what the hell do I know about seven year olds? I can't remember when I was seven all that well. And I don't regularly hang around them, since I'm in high school, and none of my friends have brothers and sisters that young, and even if they did, they'd really only describe them as bratty.

So, how do the 7-year-olds you know act?

I have very sore breasts. I have been very tired too. I really can't believe that the test was negative because I never feel this way. Why would my breasts be so sore if I wasn't pregnant?

I have 2 kids, girl and a boy. My kids both took my great grandmother's middle and last name as part of their names. My daughter took Elizabeth as her middle name and my son got great grandmother's last name,Christian, as his first name. And this is my 3rd and final child and it's a girl. A few days ago I asked my mother, like I've done with everyone else around me, if she had any name suggestions. She told me she doesn't care what I use as a first name but she wants me to use her first name, Anita, as the middle name. At the time I said something to the effect of "yeah..ok...alright..." But I don't like the name, never have, and don't wish to use it. The thing about choosing a name is the combination and how it sounds together as a whole. I thought about having 2 middle names, but don't think it is necessary? Should I just tell her that this is my last child and I already used family names from her grandmother and I'd like to come up with a full name myself? Would that be rude?
