I posted a question earlier about how I’m on birth control, but my period is a week late, it’s never been late before, I’m freaking out, blah blah blah.

But I see all these other posts like “I had sex 3 weeks ago and my boobs are sore, unusual appetite, morning sickness, back hurting, mood swings, etc. etc.”

I have none of those. I feel fine except for being extremely anxious. IF I am pregnant, when do people usually start to have those symptoms?

I mean, any idiot can become a parent. I think that there should be a psychological test before people are allowed to have kids. Just thinking.
Maybe we should all go Gattaca. Besides, I don’t think it’s a silly question. But thank you for taking the time.

The letter that this person has looks like completly fake it doesnt even have a phone number of the clinic or hospital. And it says that the blood work and pregnancy test were done at the same time. It doesnt even have DUE DATE! It just says you are approximately 4 to 5 weeks.

Best answer:

Answer by ~3 reasons for living~
it is a fake and most of the time the clinics will have it on a yellow sheet of paper. talk to the person and find out where they got the testing done… then call the clinic and verify if they seen her there on that date…..

I have recently been informed that my 15 year old neice is pregnant. My wife and I are considering adopting the baby once it’s born, since my neice has mentioned putting the child up for adoption. Does anyone out there have any first or second hand experience with “interfamily” adoption? Are there any pros and cons I should think about?

Best answer:

Answer by cathygirl32
My best friend adopted her cousin’s baby (interracial relationship). Since my friend is white and the child is black (she’s 10 now), she does know about being adopted. She is the sweetest, nicest little “lady.” She DOES NOT know who her real mother is. The family get togethers are few and far between as the family’s live in different states, but they do go smoothly when they happen as it was the cousin’s decision for the adoption.

I am not pregnant, if anything I would be on the adopting side of this question, but something else I read on here had me wondering how solid an open adoption contract is. Let’s say the adoptive/biological parents had an agreement that there could be one visit a month, well, does that mean that the adoptive parents can never move (since that would stop the visits)?? Or what if for no reason the adoptive parents decided they didn’t want the child seeing the bilogical parent anymore?? Is there anyway the bioligical parent could fight this??

Best answer:

Answer by PhilM
Unfortunately, no. Open adoption arrangements are not legally enforceable at this time. Adoptive parents who want to go back on their word are free to do so. It is, in my opinion, a despicable act, but one that is not currently illegal. Hopefully that will change.

My finacee and I are trying to get pregnant, what are some things I should be doing now to help me get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy, such as vitamins, reproductive health, resting, water intake, things like that. Also is it true to start using the ovulation kits the day after your period, also is there anything to do to make my mucas/discharge thinner. How far into the vagina does my fiancee have to be to get his sperm in real good? What are some remides that I can do at home to help me get pregnant?

Best answer:

Answer by Melissa
Start taking prenatal vitamins now. Establish a good exercise routine before you get pregnant and then maintain it when you get pregnant. Don’t smoke or drink alcohol, and limit your caffeine intake.

You start taking ovulation predictor tests according to how long your cycle is. If it’s 28 days start taking them on day 10, if it’s 32 days, start taking them day 14. The tests let you know when your body has an LH surge, which occurs 24-48 hours before ovulation. Take a test everyday until you get a positive result. These tests are just like pregnancy tests in how you take them, except dont take them first thing in the morning. With these you are supposed to wait until the afternoon.

The best position for conceiving is the missionary position because the semen is shot way up there. You can lay down for 30 minutes afterwards, however I went immediately to the bathroom, and still got pregnant.

Please don’t take offense by my question. I just don’t understand. Don’t you give up the adoption because you think it’s best for the baby? Nobody coerces you to, do they?

I just read a few answers with that line in a question and was confused. I’m 16 and don’t much about adoption but I’ve always wanted to adopt and so I want to know why ppl would write that….

Or is it just cause they’re sad about giving up the baby?

Best answer:

Answer by Molly J
sometimes the birth parent that put the baby up for adoption decides that they want the baby after the adoption parents already have it so the go to court and most of the time the birth parent wins the case so the adoption parents who already had the baby have to give it up.That’s why some people only adopt outside the US because you cant take the baby back in other countries…this happened to my parents the first time they adopted and then they went to Europe for me and even if my birth mother wanted me back she legally couldn’t unless that what we all wanted.(birth mother, my parents, and me)

I was just wondering how exactly people have “accidents” and wind up pregnant when there are so many ways of preventing it? Then I was thinking that there are times when the condom breaks, maybe you were on the pill and then took an antibiotic that you didn’t know cancelled it out, maybe you leaked while doing the pull-out method, maybe you didn’t know you were ovulating or maybe you ovulated early/late, maybe you didn’t think you could get pregnant, or maybe you were just simply lost in the moment that pregnancy was the furthest thing from your mind?

So share with me…which one of these (or was it something totally different) was the result of your “accident”?
or let’s say “suprise” instead :)

Answer by Mignon M
throwing up for a few days, when taking the pill…. I technically “missed” days of the pill when I was ill….

Do only bad people with evil intentions work for an underground adoption agency? Does that mean that the adoptive parents will be evil too? Or can the outcomes be good for a child that was sold to an “underground adoption agency.” Just concerned as to why they call it “underground.”
Yes, Gypsy, if you hadn’t notice a lot of my questions are referring to the “Baby Gabriel case” including this question.

Best answer:

Answer by love my life
It is called underground because it is done outside the legal boundaries or government guidelines, under the radar so to speak. And no it does not mean the the adoptive parents will be evil, and yes the outcome for the child can be good. Just as some are bad for those who go through the proper channels.
