This is a completely different standard for different women. The line is totally blurred. Some women can hear the heartbeat at 6 weeks (the week of their missed period). I couldn't hear my fetus' heartbeat until 16 weeks because the placenta was in front.

I don't think a parent should ever evaluate their body in front of a child. What's the point?

This show actually helps a lot with my feelings of panic from being a pregnant 30 year-old in a stable relationship with money in the bank, etc. I have seen the worst case scenario, and they survived! I will, too.

I was a stomach sleeper, but I've become a side sleeper while pregnant without any difficulty. It's too uncomfortable to have any pressure at all on the belly, so your body naturally adjusts.

I've known a fair number of daughters of rich dads and model(esque) moms who wound up looking just like daddy. I always felt so bad for them. Except for the rich part.

I know this isn't a nice thought, but isn't it wildly unfair that a 22 year old woman that rich would also be so pretty? Maybe she has a really awful personality or terrible hayfever or something to balance it out.

Yeah, it was actually a really cool ride. But it sounds lame when you try to describe it (I mean that as a general "you", not you, redparchment).

There is definitely a major language problem with this parenting choice. Do the parents never use a pronoun when they're referring to Storm, even amongst themselves, even when Storm is up wailing at 2a.m.? I would hate if they were referring to Storm as "it". That's a terrible way to refer to a child.

I think that's a noble goal, but I think it gets a bit sullied when you go on the Today Show, etc. to talk about it.

Not that 16 & Pregnant is ever a fun, feel good program, but last night's episode was horrifically depressing. This poor, sad girl just needed someone, anyone to look after her and give her a bit of attention and advice. Her friends were sweet, but they were 17 and didn't know how to help her. Her mom was a horrible

I was definitely sympathetic to the sister. She was losing her twin much earlier than she had imagined, and I can't imagine how difficult that was for her. The boyfriend definitely was not sensitive to the sister's feelings, but I think he began to get it in the end.

In Melissa and Kathy's defenses, they did appear horrified by Kim G. talking trash about Teresa at Posche. I can only assume the producers are making them befriend Kim G. Of course, it's still pathetic that two grown women are allowing the producers of a reality show dictate who they're friendly with.

I can't hate. This girl and her boyfriend (now husband?) were definitely among the most mature youngsters to have been featured on 16 and Pregnant. Most of the drama came from her identical twin sister. Jordan sort of complained that it was really difficult after the baby was born, but she didn't try to foist the

I agree. There is nothing wrong with being a size 0. For a lot of us, it was the natural state of affairs in high school - without any dieting or anything. The organizers should've gotten one of Jennifer Hudson or, heck, even Kate Hudson's gowns, too. Christina Ricci is tiiiiiny.

If we do it (I'm 24 weeks pregnant), I'll probably hang it in the master bathroom. I would like a cast as a reminder of how big my stomach was, but I certainly don't need people who come to my home to see it.

It's especially strange to me, because the vast majority of Southwest flight attendants I've encountered are unbelievably nice and friendly. (Additionally, most of these stories mention that the person has flown SW many, many times without issue.) I don't know why they can't weed out these few bad apples, especially

I actually feel a lot more guilty about eating stuff like McDonald's now that I am pregnant. All those books and articles about processed foods have made me feel like I'm going to irreparably poison my baby with the corn and the sugar and sodium.

My size-12 sister in law swears by Nordstrom and Nordstrom Rack. Rack even has large-size events.

I think in Kiefer's case, drifter is actually a nice euphemism for homeless drug addict. Dude never seems to know where he's sleeping, and he lies to Jenelle about his drug use. Consider the time he was allegedly just going to move her car and wound up doing coke down the street while Jenelle got arrested for breaking

I would cut him a little slack. I think it would be so difficult to date/marry/whatever a twin. Chances are, you will never be that person's number one.
