Other - Pregnancy & Parenting - January 2007

Ok, I've been pregnant before and had the same symptoms but last time I didn't find out I was pregnant until a month and half into it when I had a miscarriage. I had tested negitive on home and OB/GYN's urine tests the last time I was pregnant, so I'm kind of skeptical about trusting one again. Last time I didn't skip my period, all that happened was a nausuas feeling and got very very dizzy. same thing now, very dizzy and a nausuas feeling after i eat certin foods. now this time i had my period, but it was 3 or 4 days late and very light and off and on for about 4 days, like extended spotting. idk. what do you guys think? i don't really have time to go to the doctor because i'm in the military for school right now. and the last time i had sex was december 31st and it was unprotected with my

I see moms who have things planned out, and know whats going on from one minute to the next. Their lives seem to be structured, I didn't have a real "mom" figure growing up, she was to busy with other things. I have no idea how to run a house hold and I need structure. Any ideas?

What do you do about this? Do you have a system?

House work is so hard at times. How do you other moms manage it?

My friends throws everything in the floor and sweeps it into a huge pile then goes through it throwing things away and so on.

What do you do?

I am not motivated, we just moved and not even 1/6th of the boxes are unpacked.

I have a mild genetic condition which affects eyesight. After a consultation with a genetic counselor, I found out that there is a significant possibility that my child could also have the condition, and even be born blind. I decided before getting married to use an egg donor and my husband has been supportive. Now we are getting ready to conceive. While it makes me a little bit sad , I confident about my decision and I think it is an ethical choice. My husband wants to have his own children (I want to have his children too!) that is why we have decided not to adopt at this point in time, although we may adopt children after having a few of our own.
My question is, should we share the decision to use an egg donor with anyone? Is this something socially taboo? I have told a few trusted people and I was suprised by their reactions. One said, "Why bother! Just go adopt babies." Another seemed extremely uncomfortable and started talking loudly. I am inclined now inclined to keep it secret

He loves crackers and goldfish! ( I give him graduate finger foods and he wont eat those either! I do feed him potatoes, green beans, peas, carrots) What else can I give him? He needs to eat at about 3 meals and about 2 snacks a day. I need some suggestions please!

A friend of mine, June, had a baby, at 13. She named her baby Rose. When Rose was 14, she had a baby, named Violet. June was a grandma at 28. Well, Violet had her first baby when she was 14. June was now a great-grandmother at 41!! What's wrong with this picture?? June still gets asked for her I.D. when she buys lotto tickets for crying out loud!
Growing up too fast can cause a lot of problems with each one of these generations. And let me tell you, every one of these 'young mothers' had paid the consequences. At some point in their lives, they are wanting to 'go back in time' and re-live their youthful age, and go out, partying, finish what they started, and not be responsible for their actions.
What do you think went wrong with this family? I personally think there was some kind of acceptance with having kids at such a young age, but I think this only creates more problems, don't you think?

How come some people are so fertile and others aren't? I mean, in my family...all the women I cared enough to ask conceived ALL of their children (myself included) while using some sort of contraceptive...a condom, the "foam", a diaphragm, spermicide, even a botched vasectomy...why is it that we all have no apparent trouble getting pregnant while others try forever?

Is it all genetic? Does it ahve anything to do with lifestlye or diet? What is it?!?!

I have asked alot of questions. My husband and I are looking at adopting from foster care. I have a M.A. in Clinical Psychology and am currently in Graduate School to attain my PhD in Pediatric Clinical Psychology. My husband is going to School to become a Pastor with ELCA Lutheran. I have four years of providing direct therapy services to children in a varity of settings. We would be a great foster family. I have a few misdemeanors as does my husband. We both have minor's in possion of alcohol that date back to our college days. We are talking before the age of 20. My spirits have been crushed by a few responses from previous questions. My husbands misdemeanors happened 8 years ago, mine 5 years ago. We have nothing else in our past or future that would come back to haunt us. We have wonderful and supportive friends and families and our supported by our church. I have not found any law stating that we would be disqualified. Anybody have any experience out there?

I have been looking for pretty baby girl names and have found the name Claire and I absolutely love it. However, I can't think of a good middle name that flows well with it. I would preferably like a longer middle name, since Claire is on the short side. Elizabeth is the only one I can think of that remotely sounds good with it, but that is also my middle name. Any ideas?

I used to get my period twice a month and went on birth control for a while. Well, I then got off of the pill and had my period twice a month just one more time. Well now I get my period most likely a week before it's suppose to come and I get cramps and zits so I know when it's coming..

Well I was suppose to get my period by wednesday of this week. I had cramps and broke out like I usually do but my period has yet to come. I've barely had sex at all this month and each time I did I was sure no semen got near my vagina.

Has anyone been through this or could I be pregnant?

I am think about baby names for a girl and I would like to use a name in the future that would be pronounced N-eye-ah. I was thinking Nia, or Nayah or something like that. Also I wouldn't mind hearing some suggestions for a middle name. Thanks :)
