Other - Pregnancy & Parenting - January 2007

what kind/how much financial help we could get.I know you can call or go on some website (OFSTED, and others) but I was wondering if someone from past experience could give me a rough idea?
We are both working full time and earning the average salary (£49k salary combined), living in central London.
I went to a local crèche the other and was told to expect to pay £700.00 per month to have the baby looked after Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
I am just wondering how we would afford this …

My boyfriend and I are both 23. We have been together over 2 years and we have lived together for almost the whole 2 years. We are SO happy together, but i'm wanting a baby and he's not ready for it! I had a miscarriage right before we got together and he doesn't understand that its been killing me ever since. I cry daily over it, and he tries to understand, but he's in school and doesn't want it yet. I work a good job that would allow me to work days, and my mom works a daycare, so my mom would watch the baby when i was at work... and we'd be ok honestly, but he's really worried about the money aspect of it all. We make enough now to support ourselves plus some and he just won't see it! It's getting really hard on me to try to keep it all in, because he was getting tired of hearing it all the time. And there are days when he talks about it and it gets my hopes up. And we don't use ANY protection and so im just getting mixed signals. Any advice?

TTC for a total of 10 months now. No success, I am purchasing or wanting to purchase a ovulation predictor kit. However, I am wondering if it is worth the money to buy a ClearBlue Fertility Monitor which stores up to 6 cycles and tells you your peak time from a few days before ovulation or if I should just buy ovulation test strips http://www.accuratepregnancytests.com/ovulation_kit.html#details . I have a irregular cycle varying from 29-63 days over the last year. I will need anywheres 14-40+ tests a month to get a pattern going. (the Dr instructed me to start testing around 12-14 days from day 1, until I ovulate)

What do you think?

why is it that so many are quick to jump to telling someone that choosing abortion is murder? and then also condeming a woman for choosing adoption? women who choose to make an adoption plan for the child are often told how someone else "could never do that" how "could they give their own away to strangers?" they are often asked how can they not know what happened to their child, how they're doing and many other questions to make them feel like a horrible person. but if they'd chosen abortion these same people would be telling them they killed their child, that abortion is murder. i see people all the time on here say abortion is murder, then also tell someone who placed a child for adoption how they could never do that. what is wrong with this picture? seriously what is the problem here? how many of you think being a hypocrit is an ok thing?

Me and my husband Tim are adopting a baby from China. We are supposed to go get her around Valentines. I'm having a baby in March, but we are adopting because we were supposed to have twins but we lost one. So we both wanted two babies. Am I in over my head?

The first day of my last period was Jan 4th. There are usually 30 to 35 day cycle periods.My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex on the 14 [at which point he came on me] and on the 28th [at which point he came inside me]. For the past couple of days I have been getting what feels like period cramps. My boobs are also swollen and very painful. ive also noticed that i can smell and taste things alot more clearly, and some foods just dont taste right. also, backaches, headaches and dizzy/light-headedness have been on and off problems.
could i be pregnant, or is it just early period signs?

I am 29wks pregnant. Both my family and my partners family are eagerly anticipating the arrival of this child, our first, and the first grandchild on both sides. My only problem is my partners sister. She is jealous of this child because everyone "pays to much attention to it". She doesn't "approve" of baby and she thinks baby is a mistake. She is a negative depressive person and i've strongly tried to encourage therapy because she really does need it. If i had to guess i would say she is depressed with self esteem issues.

Anyway - i don't want her near my baby when baby is born. Maybe if we are there but i don't EVER want her to be left alone with baby. I really do think she is capable of doing something to baby purely out of jealously. How can this be told to my partners parents. They will want to look after baby for an hour here or there - how can i tell them it is on the condition they can't ever leave my child alone with their daughter - no compromise?

p.s - the sister is 27

I am 20 and a full time college student as is my boyfriend. We are both on our parents' insurance plans (you can be until age 25 as long as you attend school 5 months out of the year). We both plan on attending school still after we have the baby with the help of our families. So I was just wondering how we would provide our baby with health insurance. Could it be covered by our parents's plans still? help!

At the beginning of Januray I noticed my birth control was wrong. It had sayed I was on a different day then I was suppose to be.

I asked my mom what I should do, and she told me next time I bought a pack of pills, to take 2 a day. So I took 2 a day for about 4 days ( 8 pills in 4 days ) until I got on the right date.

Well, about a week or so later I woke up with bad stomach pains and started my period the next day. I wasnt suppose to start for atless 3 more weeks.

I figured I started it early because I had took all of those pills at the beginging of the month. The weird thing is, my period lasted for 2 weeks. It started out dark and got light and went away yesterday.

Here is my problem. Im starting to think im pregnant. I have a very small frame and im skinny, but my stomach is just getting big and ive been so moody and emotional about everything and eating constantly.

Was I bleeding because i took so many pills?
Could it mess me up and got me preg?

Im sort confused! Help!

For the past couple of weeks Ive been having major signs of pregnancy. Last week I had my period (or I think it was), so I concluded that I was not pregnant. However, I only bled reguarly for 2 days then it just went OFF!!! Then I just spotted for a few more days. This is completely not normal for me b/c my periods are seven days with heavy bleeding for about five days (it has been this way for since I first got my period, never changed). Even after my period (or whatever it was) the signs seemed to get stronger. Such as very frequent trips to the restroom, sore nipples, tingling breasts, enlarged breasts (everybody says they're getting bigger, my breasts have been the same size for years so this is wierd) extreme moodiness (nobody even wants to be around me), increase hunger but I get full and extremely bloated after a couple bites, and lower back aches. I even have an increase of clear cervical mucus (im not ovulating). I took 2 off brand PT's but they were negative. I am so confused
