Other - Pregnancy & Parenting - June 2007

i'm a 23 yr old woman. recently i was in the hospital for some gyn problem. the doctor had asked me how many yrs i've been married. i told her 2 yrs. now my friend told me today that that question may have had a hidden question...like for how many yrs i've been sexually active or for how many yrs i've been on birth control. can it be? if so i've really given a wrong answer for i've been sexually active for some yrs before i got married and the same goes for birth control. should i tell my doctor so? will it make a difference? can my friend's assumption be true at all? please do answer.......

Okay, when I was 14 I met this wonderful guy named Bryan. We were together for a long time and we fell in love. When I was 17 I became pregnant with a baby girl. This little girl was an accident; but we still wanted her more than anything. We named her Mackenzie. After a while, me and Bryan decided that we didn't want Madison growing up without a sibling. So, I got pregnant again. Again, it was a beautiful baby girl. We named her Madison. I don't regret it at all. I love my daughters and me and Bryan are getting married and Bryan is going to college. I'm a CNA. ( certified nursing assistant ) Mackenzie is now 4. and Madison is 3. Bryan and I want another child, but we don't know if thats the best thing to do. What do you think?

e) and be kidnapped

...than kids from smaller families, but can you think of any additional reasons why conscientious, loving parents should choose to have fewer rather than more kids?

I mean of course it is VERY helpful to get some things you will need for the baby, but i dread opening up the gifts in front of everyone. I'm just not the type of person that likes the "spotlight" on them. Do you know what i mean? I just wish someone could open with me or something .lol has anyone else felt like this???

I already have two daughters named Margo & Morgan. The name would fit well and it is very much like my family name of Magaro. So what do you think?

The reason I think I may be pregnant is that I have a very irregular period and its been about 5-6 weeks since my last one. (I've gone that long before so it could just be that but I'm still scared) I was wondering is it possible for me to still get pregnant if my parter touched himself before putting on the condom (getting precum on his hand) then touching himself again after putting on the condom (therefore getting the precum on the outside of the condom) My friend told me that sperm dies almost instantly when it touches air so I should be fine. But I'm not so sure about it. I talked about getting some pregnancy tests but she (my friend) says that they will come up negitive. Also I've been getting these cramps since then, I cant tell if there cramps because my period is soon, if im stressed, or in the worst case I'm pregnant. Can someone please help me, I'm really scared about the whole ordeal. If someone cares enough to IM me please go ahead, my AIM is ShareThatCookie. Oh also im 16

Im 6 months pregnant and all i want to drink these days is coke. I was a full blown coke junkie (as in the drink) before I became pregnant but gave it up once i found out. Now thats all i want. At first i decided that having the odd glass every now and then was ok but now it is a full 1.25L bottle every day.

Can anyone suggest another drink similar to coke that I drink, that doesnt contain the caffine. I cant stand diet coke or zero coke. And I'm not a fan of pepsi.

He is 14 months old and has only two teeth. I have never heard of a child getting teeth this late. His first two teeth came in as soon as he turned one. The doctor said since he was 9 weeks premature, to consider him 2 months younger. So, technically he is 12 months with only two teeth. Is this normal,. or should I call a doctor or perhaps a dentist? He does brush the two teeth he has. But, he isn't getting hardly any meat in his diet because he can't chew. Does any one else have this problem?

Been married going on 2 years. Husband is 26, I'm 25. We're good financially - just bought a big house so you could say that all of our ducks are in a row. Now the only thing is waiting for husband to feel he's ready. How long did it take your husband to feel ready enough to start trying? Was it a battle which he finally gave into? Did HE mention it first?
