When he is over at my place, he will open the sliding door and sit next to it while he smokes, but is that still a risk to be close to the smoke? I am newly pregnant and have heard a lot about the harmful effects of second hand smoke on a fetus.
Thanks in advance for any helpful info or advice.

Every pregnancy website i go to..... has had a section on predicting babies gender, quizzes, old wives tales ect..... My question is who has taken these silly quizzes and what did they predict and what did you end up having? or what did ultrasound show??? I'm just curious, because i dont believe these things work, but some people swear these things are accurate. So if you could kindly share your thoughts!!! because everyone of those quizzes and old wives tales i've tried (out of curiousity and boredom) has predicted a girl... no rudeness please....... its not necessary.

I have heard that this is the way the do it. I recently had a dear friend lose her baby. The baby had stopped kicking and she went to the doctor and they did a sonogram and the baby had died. I would think that it would be better for the mom to have a c-section instead of having to induce labor a deliver her dead baby. What an emotional rollercoaster. Is it because the hospital doesn't want to deal with the expense? I'm very curious.

okay so i got off my period on the 15th of aug. and i would start on the 10th of sep. todays the 27th i believe .. that means my next period doesnt start for another 14 more days. i've had sex just about everyday since i got off my last period. (unprotected)
& yes, we're trying to concieve.

a few days ago my boobs became really sensitive around the nipple area (my boobs never get tender or anything while ovulating.), i've been extremely tired, loss of appetite, and last night after me and my boyfriend has sex i spotted a little bit. i get nausous, but im not sure if thats because of the fact that im worried or exicted about being pregnant.

is it too early to be having symptoms?
when should i take a preg. test.?

at 21wks my baby is apparently about 25cm long, thats extremely big to my knowledge hehe
he only started kicking at 19 weeks but hes getting a lot harder and more regular, but why dont we feel them kick harder when they are this big already, i never feel him turning around all i get is the kicks, it just doesn't seem tat hard at all?

is a pregnancy test a routine or mandatory test when a girl has abdominal pain or complains of pain in her stomach when or if she goes to the doctor? Or do you have to request that test?

I am 37 weeks pregnant...I registered for a high chair, and received one at my shower. However, I am starting to wonder how truely necessary/useful a high chair is. I know i wont get any use out of it for a good while...but I have heard of people using bouncy chairs (Which I have) instead. What is your take, is a high chair a waste of money, or an essential item for baby?

I am a divorced mother of a 6 year old that I was able to have through invitro. I could never get pregnant w/in 10 years of unprotective sex with my ex. I have been with someone who is my fiance for 2 years and got pregnant. I work for an employer who does not offer insurance but the self insurance I do have, maternity benefits was just an option. An infertile person age 35 does not even think of buying maternity insurance yet use birth control! C'mon, miracales happen but when 2 fertility doctors tell you that your tubes are scarred and your eggs are not quality to be fertilized on their own, maternity insurance is a universe away...i am 20 weeks and have been paying out of my ass for the appts. I don't qualify for medicaid because I make way too much. I've even contemplated cutting my hours just to get medicaid but I'm just not sure. My fiance as well works for a small family based business that he buys his own insurance as well. Am I just SOL w/a $10-15k bill?

my fiance has been feeling really sore and exhausted lately (we're almost at the end), i do massages and footrubs and basically cater to her every need (which i dont mind doing at all) :), but what are some unusual/out of the ordinary things your significant other did for you while you were pregnant that made you feel really great? i'm looking for anything unique that could help either make her more comfy or just make her feel happy. thanks


oh, and sorry to ask a bunch of questions tonight. she and i live very far away from family.....

Some ppl say its 36-37 weeks. I am due on December 9th. And since this wld be my second pregnancy ( after a failed first one), I was wondering what if the labor pains start on its own? What are the chances of labor pains starting after 36 weeks? Or they can be triggered off earlier? A planned C-section is better to get done at which week the earliest that the baby doesnt get any problems and is healthy? Thanks.

I am extremely thirsty so I look it up on the web, and its a normal thing that happens, then I read some cities have unsafe lead amounts in tap water, and some bottled water as well. I was wondering if anyone knew of a really pure bottled water that is ok.

Is this something that many pregnant people go through? With my pregnancy with my daughter I've never went through half the stuff that I'm going through now. It causes me to loose tons of sleep because I wake up gasping for air. I sleep on my sides and on occasion on my back. Please respond if you have been through this, know someone that has been through this, or are a prof. Thanks and YES I sleep with my head elevated.

im on birth control, but i want to know how to make it seem like the pill failed and i got pregnant. what are some foods, medicine or anything to counteract with the pill and cause it to not work. I want to get pregnant but not purposely, if that makes sense. and dont waste your time lecturing me.
