Question by Monica h: Pregnant, and feel like I MUST leave the father?
So i am newly Pregnant and happy, however my boyfriend is a major problem. I will NOT have an abortion that is Just not right. I have 2 girls already.

He is a great guy but the drug problem I wont have. He has a 13 yr old son who’s life he has jacked up, am I wrong for making him leave, and choosing to be pregnant alone? I mean I feel its better for the baby I can’t have my baby around a junkie thoughts? Im prepared for the idiotic comments that will come!!!!

You are very wise for getting rid of him. Watch the movie Train Spotting and it will further confirm your desision. If he were to leave his drugs lying around and one of the kides got into it….. or if he was smacked off his tree and hurt or neglected a child…..
Heroin addicts have NO place in a childs life. Make sure he is clean before having visiting rights, your kides deserve better. Good luck

Q&A: slow methadone taper while pregnant???? want my baby healthy!!! stressed.?
Jan 15th
Question by : slow methadone taper while pregnant???? want my baby healthy!!! stressed.?
I am 13 weeks pregnant right now and on 16mg of methadone [i was detoxing from 65mg before i was pregnant]. When i was younger i was addicted to drugs….I have been clean for OVER 2 years now. I found out i was pregnant when i was only 4 weeks and i immediatley stopped smoking cigarettes and drinking caffeine. I am serious about having a healthy baby and have done all i can. I know it is not an ideal situation [trust me i feel soooo stupid for ever getting on these meds] but MY BIRTH CONTROL FAILED and i am in a supportive relationship, have good family and finances and don’t believe in abortion. I was also prescribed 3mg of xanax daily for 4 years when i found out i was pregnant and so i went to the hospital and totally detoxed off the xanax with help from my OBGYN [it was HELL but i am that motivated so PLEASE do not say "oh but methadone is better than heroin so you must stay on it" because, well, a LOT of stuff is "better" than heroin but that doesnt mean its good for baby and i KNOW i would never put drugs in my body...i made it through the xanax withdrawal hell so i know for a fact i am strong enough to get off the methadone. I was on 18mg when i found out and the clinic i go to said they would NOT allow me to taper/detox and would call children services if i did and my OBGYN also said it wasn't a good idea. However, after they saw me get off the xanax succesfully and finally saw that i really am trying my OBGYN AND the doctor at the clinic said i should have no problem getting off the methadone completly before baby is born! 
They also treat me different now, i think before the detox they just thought i was another "junkie" and would use drugs if i got sick.. Anyways, i went down to 16mg 4 days ago and was a little uncomfortable [very very minor] but then last night i felt pretty sick and this morning i had the sweats and diarrehea, insomnia and gooseflesh and that very anxiou/skin crawling feeling. Now I can take it, its only nighttime and early morning but i worry about the baby. I am afraid to go to my docotor because i am afraid they will tell me to quit detoxing without even looking into how they can make it better [slower maybe?]. I wish my doctors would take this more seriously…i feel like they really don’t care that much about my baby because of my past and its SOOO frustrating because i want my baby to have the best start in life as possible. Has anyone out there tapered off methadone while pregnant? I really want to know if there is anything else i can do to make it better…like shouldn’t the doctor be seeing me more than usual, and shouldnt the clinic really be monitoring how i am feeling? I would feel better if i knew they were monitoring the babys growth. and is a little bit of withdrawal ok or can it cause development problems etc? Obviously if an OBGYN says my baby is not developing right etc i would stop the detox…..and trust me the doctors would NOT of let me detox if it was really bad…but they also don’t know i am getting a little sick. Also for those of you who think so having a baby on methadone is NOT 100% safe, there is low birth weight/dev issues and obviously the worst…weeks worth of withdrawl [and it doesnt matter how low your dose it]! I just cannot imagine seeing somone administer morphine to my baby or it getting so sick!!! I am SOOOO MAD AT MYSELF for getting on methadone and i feel like a horrible person. DO NOT want to have a baby born on any drug if i dont have to. I was wondering if it would be safe to just go to the hospital and have a medically supervised detox? Anyone do that? Cause the xanax hospital detox worked. Maybe i will go down 1mg at a time instead of 2 since i am so low now. Im freaking out…any knowledge about this would be helpful, but PLEASE dont be rude….im doing EVERYTHING i can and i dont believe in abortion.

Answer by MW
You are doing the right thing:) you just need to get off me it as slow as you can i know you want off me it now but if you get off of it too fast you get stressed because of the detox and you could lose your baby and that’s not an option the key is to do it very slowly so no stress is put on your baby just make sure you take your vitamins and your baby will have a great start:)

Oct 25th
Question by xxKatxx: If I am pregnant how can I tell my father the baby is not my boyfriends?
Ok I was dating this guy named Jason around the time I was ovulating…well that whole week I was fertile( I don’t think its a whole week but I was dating him for a week while I was fertile and ovulating.)Well I started my last period on April 2nd 2010.He dumped me after using me for sex, which I feel so bad about because if I knew that is what he wanted I never would of done anything with him, like he was so sweet and he treated me really well its just one this that was so different with us. RACISM…He was so racist and I didn’t know until like 2 days before he dumped me.Well I was sad about it and all but I got over it quick because it wasn’t anything serious.The only thing that did break my heart is because my mom loved Jason, she was ready to call him her son in law and it hurt her worse than me….well anyways…Well I meet this boy while I was in retract aka In-School Suspension.(OH AND BTW MY DAD WAS IN TEXAS THIS WHOLE TIME SO HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON)Well I was telling my friend while the teacher left the room about how he treated me and what he did and this boy sitting behind me heard when I was telling him we messed around at the wrong time and I was scared he might have gotten me pregnant and he wrote me a note asking if I was ok and stuff being nicer than he needed to be.Because in my city if it ain’t your baby you don’t take care of it(the guys).Well he was like besides all of this I find you very cute and funny would you like to go out tonight and I said yes..I loved the fact that he asked me out knowing I could be pregnant with another guys baby….will things progressed and me and the boy(Chris) are dating now and he amazes me everyday.No one believes were dating because were so different.He is a jock southern country boy who loves preppy girls and mud riding is very loud and im a juggalette who loves metal all things shiny and is quite and weird in class…thank god hes not racist..secretly hes all my type because not many guys will do what he has done for me already.He got kicked out of his house because he told his mom to fuck off and he wasn’t giving me up because he loved me ( which at his age to risk all that you gotta have balls because most ppl would be like ok mom and dump me , I know its happened allot with me) and he moved in with his brother and he just got kicked out today and me and my mom are secretly letting him live in my room nd eat and shower and sleep here so he can finish school because we only have 3 weeks left…well Chris knows its not his baby and hes ok with that he really is because he know I regret what I have done and he said he will stay with me no matter what, because really he no one else its either the street or homeless shelter because his dad is a raging alcoholic and his mom is clinically crazy…I know what a great mix..that bitch ain’t crazy shes fucking insane.So I have to get off my rant of teenage love….I supposed to start my period tomorrow,usually I would have extreme tenderness of my breast and bad cramps and I would get spotting but all I have is so nausea and a whole lot of sleepiness the whole day.I has this kind of discharge which was white and sticky and at first was very slippery and I read online that it could be implantation discharge which I got about a week after sex with Jason.I just need yalls help.How could I tell my dad that my, if any, baby isn’t my boyfriend.Its going to be so hard because my sister went through this in 92′ when she got pregnant when she was 15…but im nothing like that I didnt act like a whore…(sorry I don’t think she a whore now its just back then…omg) my dad tried to kill her and her unborn baby.I need help Im finding out in the morning,Chris is going to walk to the store and get me a test.What should I saw. I want an abortion but I know that wrong if I am so im going to tell my mom and were going to keep it in until it has a heartbeat and tell my dad because he will try and kill it if I tell him too soon.Any suggestions.And please don’t say I am a whore because I am not..I just made a mistake.
Thanks zero and MMFWCL. I really needed to here that.Idk he has changed alot since then but I grew up watching him beat my sibling,me,and my momso we have major trust issues..Im just scared hes going to hurt me or get someone to hurt me.I will be 18 when the “baby”, if any, is born so he cant really say anything Im still embarrassed because Chris told me he would take care of us and I dont want him to because I would feel so guily.I ts Jasons and its his fault too..I just dont want nothing to do with Jason’s racist biggot ass ya know?

How can i stop my brother’s 6 months pregnant girlfriend from binge drinking? He isn’t around to stop her?
Aug 11th
Question by emily321: How can i stop my brother’s 6 months pregnant girlfriend from binge drinking? He isn’t around to stop her?
She is an alcoholic, and she’s been calling my family slurring and and hiccuping and angry. But she denies that she has even had a drop to drink. We are really convinced she’s that she is drinking. My brother is away for 6 weeks, and we feel responsible to make sure that she does not harm the baby. Could use some brainstorming on how to handle the situation.
Best answer:
Answer by Laura B
The only real way I can think of is to invite to stay with you whilst your brother is away. Drinking during pregnancy can cause serious brain damage to the baby, which I am sure you are aware of.
If she doesn’t want to stay with you, try arranging to catch up with her a few times a week a least that way you will be able to know for sure if she is drinking or not as you will be able to smell it on her.

Q&A: Why did my GF cheat on me and got pregnant? Take her back?
Jul 6th
Question by hunter849: Why did my GF cheat on me and got pregnant? Take her back?
My GF wanted me to get her pregnant. I asked her to wait a few months until after I received my promotion at work and saved up enough $$$ to buy her a ring, take her and her grandparents to Vegas for a quick wedding, and to so I could make arrangements for the baby (get an apartment in a nicer neighborhood).
My promotion would pay me ,000-,000 per year. I saved up ,000 with the help of my family members b/c my GF was unemployed for 1 1/2 years.
She then saw her ex-BF and became pregnant by him. He told her to get an abortion and b/c she was desperate for a baby, she refused. He now refuses to return her phone calls or text messages and doesn’t want anything to do with her or the baby.
She said she wanted a baby b/c: “I hate my family -that’s why I want a baby, so I can have a family of my own to love.”
The reason her family “hates” her is b/c one of her sister’s accused her (my GF) of sleeping with her husband.
My GF also spent the night at my best friend’s house but she claims “nothing happened” but my best friend called her an “alcoholic” and a “wh.ore” and said I should “move on from her”.
My GF cheated on her ex-BF when she was with him on a regular basis with her 1) friend with benefits and 2) a man she referred to as her “f*ckbuddy” and she also slept with her friend with benefits’ roommate one time.
I really do love her but I wish she would change. What can I do to help her? She wants a man in her life to help take care of her and her baby.
What did I do wrong for her to do this to me?

Im an ex-junkie, who has relapsed, and needs help telling if Im pregnant.?
Jul 2nd
Question by Katie M: Im an ex-junkie, who has relapsed, and needs help telling if Im pregnant.?
I was addicted to oxycontin/heroin for about 2 years. About a year into my addiction I lost my period until sometimes when I would withdrawal (when I didn’t have my drugs, couldnt afford it, etc.) my period would come back for however long I withdrawaled for (a day or two usually). I began detox on June 13, 2009. I relasped 8 days later. But through those 8 days my period did not come back. On July 11, 2009 I tried detoxing again. I have relapsed again 8 days later. And through those 8 days, again, my period has still not come back. I have been using again since July 19, 2009. Im not taking as much as I did before and Im going to try detoxing again. My fiance and I have been trying to have a baby, but with no period for months now, am I even able to concieve? I think I might be pregnant though, I have a few of the symptoms, slightly tender breasts/nipples, weight gain, am usually constipated, but right now I have diarreha, frequent urination, slight cramps in my lower belly, cravings and some of the foods I usually like I dont wanna eat, and I can smell everything. But I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative, I have another one and Im going to test again tomorrow morning (when my urine is the most concentrated). Please help. I dont know if the no period coming back after trying to get clean, means that Im pregnant or if I have just really messed up my body to the point that my period is never going to come back.

GF pregnant after 3 months…and now we’re engaged?
Nov 16th
Question by Mark Rudl: GF pregnant after 3 months…and now we’re engaged?
Yup. My girlfriend of only 3 months is 2 months pregnant… and I take full responsibility for it. She and my family have pressured me to marry her, so I proposed and she said yes. She is 26, I am 23. She has a 5yr old daughter from a previous relationship (he has a lot of money). And, after I did the math, she got pregnant 2 weeks after meeting my parents (she found out my family has a lot of money).
I also think marriage is the best thing for me to do since she is pregnant, but I feel like I’m still in the honeymoon phase and I don’t feel like I know her true self yet or that I love her for who she really is.
She’s had a bad history of cheating, which I just found out, and I think she’s having alcohol withdrawals since her pregnancy… but I’ve still caught her drinking wine while pregnant. She loves attention and sometimes I think she loves drama… I don’t think she can live without drama! She’s my complete opposite… I moved in with her after a month of dating and apparently she’s had her ex’s move in that quick as well.
I’m not that big on partying, unlike her, I’ve only had one other long term, serious relationship, and I have never cheated… Plus, she’s always causing drama with her exboyfriend and his new girlfriend.
If I go through with the marriage, do you think it will last and that it will work? Even if I didn’t marry her, I would still take care of my child. But, I really want to marry her because of the pregnancy. I do love her, but I think it’s too soon to know if I’m in-love with her. I don’t want my child to grow up in a broken home and I would really like this marriage to succeed.
I have only recently been informed about her alcoholism, her cheating history, and her love for drama and attention. But I still think she’s a wonderful girl. Is this only because I’ve known her for 3 months and I’m still in the honeymoon stage? Will everything work out? Am I doing the best thing by asking her to marry me???
Best answer:
Answer by Trish the Dish
Honestly, I don’t think you should marry her just because of the baby. Because the marriage could be even more dysfunctional than the situation would be if you were not together but raised the baby together. Marriage is NOT something to rush into! I think you should have a long engagement and see where you’re at after the baby is born. Babies put an enormous amount of stress on couples! Not trying to get you depressed, just giving you the truth!

5 Helpful Tips to Getting Pregnant
Jan 7th
There are numerous couples out there who are very eager and ready to bear a child of their own. However, they seem to have run out of luck with such goal. There are no scientifically significant studies that the positioning and the timing of the coitus would matter and play a role in getting pregnant.
Bear in mind the ironic fact that the woman produces only one egg for an entire month cycle and the male produces millions of sperms as he ejaculates. But only one sperm gets to unite and survive the journey to bond with the egg.
However, these below are the few things you might want to consider if you are in need of help and advice to getting pregnant.
1.Eat Healthy. What you eat plays a major and vital role in the success rate of an individual and as a couple. Eating healthy would promote healthy and mature eggs (female) and healthy sperm (male). With this there is much higher percentage of the success rate for the egg and the sperm to unite.
Studies have shown that those individuals who have an unhealthy eating lifestyle, especially those that drink alcoholic drinks have abnormal sperms. They usually have two-headed sperm or sometime sperms that don’t have a tail. With this, there is certainly a decrease of success in reaching the egg. Women who also have an unhealthy eating lifestyle would likely alter the balance of their pH in their vagina making the sperm unable to reach the egg.
Hence, eating healthy will likely increase the chances of getting pregnant and producing a healthy baby as well.
2.Exercise Daily. With daily exercise it helps tone down and reduces cholesterol and fats in the body. This has been studied that women who are obese and who have apparently high BMI than normal have lesser chances to getting pregnant.
Daily exercise helps improve blood circulation. When there is increase and healthy blood circulating within the system, it provides distribution of the nutrients all over the body. It also helps keep the individual tone and healthy and not feel sluggish.
3.Avoid Stress. Stress not only increases the risk of cancer, but it can also alter the hormonal balance of the individual. When there is stress, there is sometimes an irregular delay of the woman of her menstruation, thus her fertile period. Sometimes, the egg produced would not be mature enough to unite with the sperm. If a woman is stressed and weary, there would be a decrease in the stimulation to unite with his husband. Hence, there is a decrease in the chance to have a baby.
4.Sleep Early. Sleeping early and having enough sleep helps energize the individual. When a person is energized he/she has the ability to stay fit and healthy and thus produce healthy eggs and sperm. When they do, they will have a higher chance of being successful in getting pregnant.
5.Enjoy and Know the Right Time. Bearing a child is not as easy as it seems especially if you and your husband has been trying to do it but seem to be unsuccessful. Relaxing and enjoying the moment usually helps. Think not of the goal that is to achieve a baby but instead think of it as a time of union between a husband and a wife in love. Knowing the right time helps as the woman has a period of fertility. This period is usually a marking point wherein the body actually helps to make the pregnancy successful.
If all these seem not to work, it would then be best to seek medical help as there may be a problem either toward the male or the female. Certain conditions such as low sperm count, abnormal sperms, and immature eggs may be the cause for the unsuccessful try to getting pregnant.
