  • You just use the @ sign in front of their name. No spaces
    in how do you? Comment by bex March 2011
  • I wouldn't worryabout it. Maybe you'll be one of the lucky few to be symptom free! I thought I was until my 7th week. Then it hit me LOL.
  • I've read that babies can hear before the ears are fully developed.
  • A temp of over 103 can be fatal to your baby so do whatever you have to do to get it taken care of. Good luck.

  • You need to do what's best for you and your child. By what you've said, it doesn't seem at all like you're in a healthy environment. If your boyfriend has a problem with you moving into a healthier environment then he should be making an effort to …
  • Good luck to you. I hope things work out :) relatives are great but having your own space can't be beat.
  • Even living with close relatives while not pregnant can be quite stressful. Even if the folks are a support to you it's not unreasonable to need your own space. If you have the means, I say go for it! You can still stay close to supports but even …
  • @soon_2be_storked - I didn't start getting sick until week 7. Hopefully you get lucky but do be prepared. @mommys1stbundle - thank you for that. I keep hearing (and.hoping) it gets better. I'm 9 weeks to the day now and anxiously awaiting a time I …
  • Some entire populations eat nothing but spicy food and that doesn't change when they're pregnant! I'm normally a spicy food person but right now I'm a no appetite person.
  • I have a friend who was in the same situation. Not smoking weed but was drinking quite a bit. Her baby turned out to be healthy but she's aware that signs of FASD can show up as late as adolescence.
  • My symptoms started around 7 weeks. Before then I was all like "shoot, this isn't bad at all!" And then before I knew it I was like "bleaaaaaahhh!!" So either you'll get lucky and have a nice first trimester or it's all just wai…
  • 70% of the world does not circumcise their boys. Medical communities around the world don't even recommend it. It started with religion and continues to be supported by a combination of religion, medical myths and inaccuracies. If you don't wash p…
  • Sucks eh? I loooooove taking hot baths... I miss them!!! LOL

  • I'm not large in that area but I find that Victoria's Secret bras are the only comfortable bras out there. I can't even handle an underwire and they have a number of options without the wire.
  • @rockinmomma - thanks.for the details. That sounds like a great program!
  • Ooo you could do Adriano. I have met Cubans with that name. Whether or not you like the O at the end, Adrian would be the 'more Latino' spelling. But the O would just give it that extra kick. As I said before, Adrien is the French spelling so it w…
  • It all depends on whether or not they can ensure it is a safe environment for a baby.
  • No it's not because you could pass out (although that is a possibility). When you raise your body temperature too high, you can cause serious harm to the fetus, with the possibility of causing a miscarriage

  • So sorry this has happened to you. Some people have the delusion that getting married changes things for the better in a relationship. A lot of those same people believe that having a baby will bring them closer to their partner. What they don't …

  • I like Adrian. Adrien is a French spelling.
  • Oh and Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder used to be identified by just facial features. While these facial features only appear if the mother drinks during a very specific period in her pregnancy, the brain damage can be caused at any stage of develop…
  • No amount of alcohol has been identified as safe during pregnancy. And of all of the junk a woman can put in their body from crack to Meth, I have seen alcohol cause far more damage. Yes, some women have had some alcohol during their pregnancy and…
  • I also think it's sad that in this.day and age we identify dolls and kitchen sets as girl toys (as though boys can't turn out to he fathers and.cooks) and we identify things like cars and trucks as boy toys.
  • A couple of the kids I work with(am a social worker) are punished for being interested in toys that our society has defined as being meant for the opposite gender. This is damaging to a child. They become confused and ashamed of who they are. It so…
  • Thanks.... that totally freaks me out
  • OMG tell her that children are supposed to grow up and leave the nest when they can take care of themselves! I don't understand her thought process, that's absolutely ridiculous!
  • Well, Russell Peters says that in a few generations from now, there will only be one race: beige! LOL.

  • I'm only 9 weeks but look like 5months at least with all the bloating!!
  • LOL nice. I can't wait to see my brother's baby. He's going to be so freaking cute!! Mine will probably look pure Indian since Guyanese ancestry is Indian... maybe slightly lighter but there are some pretty light skinned Indians out there already.
