pregnant woman and their food

mflower2053 @mflower2053 (3223) • United States 3 Apr 07

Why does my husband keep eatting the food that I buy b/c I'm craving it? He says hes on a diet so why eat all my snacks. People should stay away from pregnant womens food. They just do not know what they are messing with. I should...

lovemydsdominik I definitely think that you have a chance of having a girl, because like a previous poster stated, gender is determined by the sperm and you r husband has has a daughter before- ~~~pink baby dust your way~~~ -)

The cut-off age for pregnancy

dipasrisamanta @dipasrisamanta (121) • United States 30 Mar 07

What, you think, should be the age when women should try and stop to become a mother? I have heard that age 35 is the age after which it becomes very very difficult to conceive. Is that true? In this respect, what is the cut-off...

lovemydsdominik It does become harder for a wwoman to conceive as she gets older, there is a decrese in fertility at 30 and it continues from there. Men don't lose their fertility as drastically as women, but there quality of sperm does become lower as they age. I think that...

lovemydsdominik I don't think that there is necessarily a best age difference, I think it just depends on when both parents are ready for another one- my son is 16 months and I am 3 months pregnant with our second, we wanted them about 2 years apart and they will be about 23...

I told my sons I have eyes in the back of my head

CaroleeKaufold @CaroleeKaufold (1853) • United States 21 Mar 07

and they believed me. I would turn around and part my hair, they were to scared to look. But it worked. Do you have something that makes your kids believe you can tell they have been fooling around
