Other - Pregnancy & Parenting - July 2007

about 6 months before having my IUD removed. I suffer from depression, especially after birth so we were afraid of that again since my meds have made me normal for over the last year. I never should have gone off of them when I became pregnant this time but I did, got depressed again, and went back on my meds just over a month ago. They are still not working all the way. I feel like we made a huge mistake and cannot even comprehend what we were thinking to conceive again. Im overflowing with worry. How can I take care of two kids when I get overwhelmed with just one? How will we go places like shopping with two kids? What about doctors appts? My 4yr old (girl) drives me nuts lately being loud and doing bad things almost on purpose and smiles about it. Im going to have to quit my part time job and end up staying home thanks to childcare exp. anyone go through this and can tell me a positve outcome? like how everything worked out? :) i fell like ive ruined our lives

Apparently there's alot of talk about microwaving formula/breastmilk. It's supposed to radiate the liquid and kill all of the nutrients. I ask how this is possible when microwaves don't use radiation, they use lite waves at high frequencies.

There's also the myth about them cooking from the inside out, but that can be disproven by sticking a big piece of red meat in the micrwave and under cooking it (The outside is cooked and the inside is raw as ever).

I have a guy friend who is very quiet, low self-esteem, always has a hard time meeting girls or getting good job offers as a result of it. He hates himself & never speaks up for things, in fear that it'll cause more harm than good. I can relate in many ways to this guy friend. Let's call him "A."

I told a mutual guy friend, "B," about times that A has been stepped on or has paid for other peoples' mistakes. E.g., the time the state screwed up his car registration & instead of disputing it for free, he paid all this money to get the screw-up corrected. He often does things like this b/c he feels that he doesn't have a choice or an option to stand up for himself, when he really does. I told B how I feel bad & feel frustrated for A a lot.

Anyway, "B" said "Wait until A has a kid...that'll probably be the thing that will get him to snap & become more assertive." Is this true? Also, do you think A's meekness/spinelessness will hinder him from being considered a "good" parent? Or...

Today we had a University Open for Arts and Humanities. We were at a Classics lecture and the lecturer had to bring his 5year old daughter with him.

Anyway, we thought she was pretty cute at first. She was the clicker for his Powerpoint. But the she got bored and started drawing on the whiteboard.

She started drawing this person, then she drew a noose around it's neck and wrote above it, " I will hang you all" and "I want your blood".

Her father was quite shocked. He was quick to defend her and was very worried.

We left the lecture quite scared.


How on earth could a 5year old know about this stuff?
(Don't give me any Satanic answers please)

My husband and I have been TTC for about 10 months now and 7 weeks ago I thought I was pregnant. Well, I took a pregnancy test and it was negative. I was still convinced I was pregnant so I went to the doctor to have a blood test done and it came back negative as well. So I just assumed it was all in my head. After all we had been trying for awhile and we both want this so badly! But ever since then I haven't really had what I would call a period. Both months since then I have had a brownish discharge at the time I was to expect my period. Never had to use more than a pantyliner, But I had to use them for about 3 days last month. This month it happened again but longer,about 6 days. about 2 wekks ago I started feeling really uncomfortable and cramping badly. but just on my right side. I have had neasua off and on too.

Can anyone tell me what are the sypmtoms of ectopic preg. and what they know about this. Do you always get a + on a test when you have a ectopic pregnancy?

I must say that she goes to bed from 7:30 pm to 7:00, so is it because she is sleeping for almost 12 hours. They are 3 oz bottles btw, so it's not a lot and sometimes she just wants 2 oz.
She is 9 months old. I just don't have the heart to let her cry it out if she's hungry.

She has a little bit of solids during the day but 80-90% of her diet is formula so if I knew she is eating a lot of solids through out the day I wouldn't feel so bad letting her cry it out.

I've heard there is a procedure to get pregnant that two women's eggs are used to make one egg and then fertilized by donor sperm.

I am 29 weeks pregnant with my first child and I am debating on whether to breast feed or formula feed my child. I have no desire to breast feed but everyone says it is sooo good for the baby.
Is formula just as good as breast feeding?
Please let me know your experience or opinion. Thank you.

I argued with a friend of mine that two babies born in the same woman could grow up and get married without committing incest. I said as long as both eggs came from two OTHER different women and both sperm came from OTHER different men. basically speaking, we have 5 parties involved. he told me that no matter what, it was still incest. i said no way, nobody's sharing DNA! can somebody tell me what's what?
