getting the baby bug
Posted Thursday January 28 2010, 1:25 am
I'm an 18 year old successful student at a top college...and I've found myself with the crazy urge to have a baby. This started in October. My boyfriend of 8 months and I ran out of condoms and had unprotected sex. It was the first time we had ever done it without one and I was terrified. A week later we broke up due to stress from living in different states. A couple weeks later I found out I was pregnant and I was scared to death, then a couple days later I had a miscarriage. Two months later we got back together and he now lives half an hour from my school. He knows I miscarried but we don't talk about it.
Since we've gotten back together we've had sex without a condom..a lot. Every so often it makes me nervous that I'll get pregn...

Do I let my kids spend time with their mother?
Posted Saturday January 23 2010, 6:06 pm
Let me first start by giving you a little back ground information. My ex wife became pregnant when she was 20 and I was 19. Even though it was earlier than we both expected to become parents, we were thrilled and so excited to start our family together. We got married shortly after she gave birth to our son Matt. Soon after that, we had another son, and then a daughter. From my perspective, everything was great. That's why I was so blindsided when my wife came to me 9 months after our daughter was born claiming she wasn't ready to settle down and be a mother with divorce papers in her hand. Almost overnight, I became a 23 year old single father with a 4 year old, 2 year old, and a 9 month old. After the divorce was final, I rarely heard fro...

Very complicated

I dont know where to start, so ill just start.
I am 18 weeks pregnant, 19 years old and have been with my now 20 year old boyfriend since we were 17. Found out about the pregnancy in October, we were living in an apartment with my bestfriend and her boyfriend. I started to get very bad morning sickness, constant vomit and fevers because of the dehydration so I decided it would be best to stop working for a few months. My boyfriend got layed off at the same time. Seeing the position we were in my wonderful mother took both of us in because he had noowhere to go. This was Dec. 1st. The agreement was 250 a month when we got jobs and to be clean and respectful. My boyfriend started his new job with in a couple of weeks. He is terribl...

What exactly are Braxton Hicks. I have been having them for the last like four days. I have only had them really bad twice. I am 33 weeks pregnant. Is it true it means you are going to have your baby early? Is it true it thins you out so you can start dialating.

can my dad read my texts?
Posted Sunday December 27 2009, 6:47 pm
soo a while back i texted a friend saying something inappropriate. not too bad, but i guess it'd be bad in a parent's point of view. i didn't think anything of it until he told me his mom read my text online... i was really freaked out. luckily she didn't say anything to my dad. but now i'm worried if my dad can read my texts or not online like my friend's mom. they had cricket or some cheap service. i have t-mobile. if i could get some info on this i'd really appreciate it. thanks :)

He isn't my child
Posted Monday December 7 2009, 5:14 pm
My bf has a 2 1/2 year old with his ex. He and I have been together for almost 2 years now.
His ex and I are friends, but has a problem with me doing anything to parent their child.
I don't view it as parenting, but being an adult when there is a dangerous situation at hand.
For example, we were all together eating dinner the other night. Mom went outside for a couple minutes and dad went to the bathroom. Boy was playing around while eating and then did a "backflip" in his chair (he is on the ground in a foam little kids chair) with a fork in his mouth.
I told him he can't do that and he will get his fork taken away if he continues to play when he should be eating.
He kept playing around and doin...

My children are traumatised
Posted Thursday November 26 2009, 11:11 am
Hi everyone! I have 2 boys, they are 4 and 6 years old. Their dad took them for a 2 weeks holliday this summer and decided not to bring them back to me. They spent 3 1/2 months at his place while i fought in 2 provinces to get them back. It finally happened on november 13th. The oldest missed 2 1/2 months of his first grade school year.
That'S it for the context, now, when i get mad and let's say, put my hands on my hips, the oldest has defensive reflexes, i found out he got hit by his father with a fly swapper and a wooden spoon. They also act out a lot, and my youngest has nightmares that he is being taken by a bad guy, and they end up in my bed every night. They have a very hard time going to sleep. Also, last night the 6...

One of my nipples smells like breast milk?
Posted Thursday November 19 2009, 3:04 am
Yes, I am aware that the most likely answer is that I am pregnant, but I thought I would ask: is your breasts are making a smell like milk but you aren't expressing any milk and nothing is leaking then could this be a sign of pregnancy?
