Other - Pregnancy & Parenting - December 2006

I have 2 boys 11 months apart. Ages 2 and 3. I have been wanting another baby since my youngest was maybe 4 months old. My husband originally agreed to try for our third child in September when my youngest turns 3. I told him I couldnt wait that long and he agreed to try in June. This morning he said he doesnt want to try till next November. I got all upset because I have major baby fever. I dream every night of being pregnant or holding a new baby. I got all teary and he finally agreed on June. But he was angry and didnt want to talk about it. June seems so long already to wait for but I dont know how I feel now. Our older son will be in preschool and Id really love to try in June. My dh said I was being selfish by wanting one even though he doesnt. Im the one who is going to be pregnant, and take care of the baby. I get no help from him with our 2 boys and thats fine. But I just feel bad that he got all upset over it. Any opinions welcomed. I dont know I just feel that its the right time. If we got preggo in June my youngest would be 3 and a half years apart from the next. I think that is spaced far enough apart.

The only way I will have a child is by adopting ......And will never ever have a pregnancy by choice..... But lets say hypothetically speaking I did want to give birth to my own big 10lbs baby I would most defiantly have a C-section

Also should c-sections be covered by insurance....just like natural birth

I am pregnant with my second child, and im having trouble finding work. nobody seems to want to hire me, so i am wondering if anyone knows anywhere i can go or call to get help with money to buy a crib, and other baby necessities. The father isnt involved and my mother who wants to help, cant because of money issues. I have tried goodwill, savers, and those kinds of stores that take the donations but i cant ever find any of the things i need there. just a bassinet, but the baby will grow out of it by 6 weeks or so.

This is a really stupid question,but i'm paranoid. My cousin brings her b/f to my grandma's house to stay for a couple of nights. I don't like the fact that some guy I just met is staying in the same house I am and sleeping there too. So if he tried to do anything while I was sleeping, would I wake up ,but I am a heavy sleeper? If he did do something without me knowing it ,could i get pregnant?
thanks, to all who answer my stupid question

How were you told where babies came from as a kid?

I was allways told they came out of our belly buttons and thats why the skin behind the belly button got so big.

once your baby dropped, how long before you went into labor? last week my OB said that my cervix is ripening and this week my baby dropped.

I find it interesting how we define a "life" in America. In America we tend to define a life as the person with the most rat races, most responsibilities, little disposable income and free time. While people who avoid unwanted responsibilities, have lots of disposable income, free-time and live life to his or her own accord we in turn tell those people to "get a life". You go to places like Canada and Europe and they define a life over there as someone who lives life to their own accord and have lots of free-time and disposable income. While once again here in America we tell those people to.....you guessed it.....get a life. I think here in America we get upset and jealous of people who avoid the status quo and still get ahead with half the effort. If so do we as Americans get upset by people who get ahead with no responsibilites (little to no kids, little debt, lots of free-time etc) and tell these people to get a life? Also, how do you define a life?

Two people are living together, they break up. Weeks later the girl says she is pregnant but claims it belongs to someone else. How can the guy get a paternity test if she won't agree to one?

One of my sisters friends had a baby last night and we didn't even know that she was pregnant. She found out last month and she hadn't talked to my sister much in the past couple months but anyway. I just don't understand how she didn't know she was pregnant until 8 months along?

Almost 2 weeks ago now (2 weeks on Sunday) I had minor spotting. Now, my period is late, as usual, and I just thought my period was starting, but it was only minor spotting and then it stopped. It has been almost two full weeks now. I know that spotting can occur a week after implantation, so I took a test this morning (Friday) and it came up negative. Would waiting two more days until my "official" 3 week mark (as I have calculated it) make that much of a difference?

I have given up the idea of being pregnant this month even though I haven't even started yet, Now my question is this, my left boob is so super sore I mean I have a bra on right now and it hurts so bad just having the bra on. There is slight discomfort and pain on the side underneath my arm pit but overall this boob is very painful and I don't even want to lay on it. Now the right one is sore but not as bad as the other one, it is more tolerable and if I am doing something I don't even notice that it hurts. I don't get sore boobs before my period is about to begin so this is rather weird to me. I am not asking if you think I am pregnant because as I stated I don't think this is my month so I have given up the idea of that being a possiblility. I called my doctor and she didn't give me the best information. So I would just like to have opinions from ladies who may have had this happen before. THANKS let me know if you need me to give more details information!! Thanks again

A friend of mine got pregnant with a guy that already had 4 kids by 4 different women and she was upset when he left her. This seems to be an ongoing thing. Can these women not seee the man leaving? The same with a man that won't keep a job wjen he and a woman are dating. Why would he keep one after getting her pregnant? I just don't get it. Anyone else have an opinion or situations like this?

Well when My sons dad left me I was two months pregnant. Before me he was with some girl for a few years and they had a daughter but then they finally broke up and he moved to wa (shes in ar) and she ignored him and was mean til she saw him and I together on a picture. Then she harassed him for like 4-5months til one day he finally went back. then she found out I was pregnant and immediately got pregnant too. (so his step sister is 2.5mo his jr) and he used to call like 4times a day to at least 3 times a week (when I was preggo) and he was begging me to fly him back.. But I was having a boy and she had to monitor his call cuz that was teh new rule. So she became jealous (he wanted a boy) so the calls became less and less.. and thenon October 27 (she called it their "4 yrs"-- even though for 8 months of that he was here and five of those he was with me)he married her. (her mom bought the rings and her dad paid it) now he barely calls. they had a girl and thats when alot of it started

Recently there seems to be a bit of a trend in the celebrity world of adopting babies form third world countries but is it good or bad?

There seems to be a lot of advantages (the main one being that the child might actually live to see adulthood) and disadvantages (being in the media spot light and being treated like an accessory) - what do you think?

I'm worried I've hurt my son's reproductive organs by taking low-dose birth control pills, prescribed by my mid-wife, while nursing. He is now 9 and, of course, hasn't nursed for years. But, for years he did get those hormones. Mid-wife dismissed my concerns, saying my body is always full of hormones....

I wonder if they did affect him, tho, because there is a very big difference in the sizes of our two sons' penises. Well, I haven't seen the older boy's in many years, but the younger one, I spotted in the shower the other night and was very surprised to see his penis still looks like an infant's. (Our sons are uncircumcized.) Our oldest's was not infant-like when he was 8/9.

Should I pursue this with his doctor, or are these variations just typical? I know a friend of ours had her son, who has down syndrome, receive injections of growth hormone directly into his penis, because it was so small it was barely protruding.
