is it safe to use a tanning bed while pregnant?

when i got pregnant i had no symptoms until week 8. i felt myself the entire time. i was told by my gyno that i would never become pregnant. period. no fertility drugs or ovulation charts would do anything for me at all. to be honest i didn't even notice until i got the symptoms that something wasn't right. i have always had an unpredictable period that sometimes would shy away for 6 months at a time. i had a serious surgery 2 weeks prior to my conception and now i'm having one of those horror story pregnancies. so i have 2 questions here

-1- can anyone give me some home remedies for these symptoms that worked for them? i have pretty much every ailment ever known to man kind

-2- what do i do about my other half? he's already talking about having MORE KIDS! i've only ever wanted one and planned to adopt later on. and he already has two! he came from a large family and thinks that's the best way. i don't agree. and now that i'm pregnant he wants me to give birth to all the children instead of adopt, but there are SO many little ones out there with no one to love and care for them. i can't stand by and let them go un nurtured. what do i do? i have already talked this to death with him, he's as stubborn as i am.

i know this is really long but i'm in desperate need of an unbiased opinion.

i need to find a website that i can use to find the meaning of baby names, not the baby names themselves but the actual meaning of the names. i already have the male name picked out, still looking for the female name. but something tells me it's a boy.

i have a 77 f250 highboy. my truck takes an 8 bolt pattern rim and i can't find the right ones any where i've looked. i have tried ebay and craigs list but got nothing. the bolt pattern was changed in the eighties (i think it was the eighties) so it's really hard to get the right ones now. just need to know if any one knows where i can find some without having to go to the dealer and special order them, i don't have that kind of pocket money. i've already went to all the jubk yards in my area. not having much luck.

my mother and i have had the worst possible relationship ever! and for the past 4yrs i've done everything i could to try and repair what we haven't had since i was 10. but she chooses to shut me out and it really hurts.

when i was younger we used to ride around in her car listening to music for hours at a time laughing and joking around. now on the other hand we don't joke about anything.

i called her not to long ago to let her know i'm pregnant, she's got a right to know, right? well when i told her she handed the phone to my step-dad and had him talk to me about it. he was mostly concerned about how i felt about it and what i waschoosingg to do with it (i'm keeping it). at some points all i could hear was her in the background raving about how she's not raising my child and i better not ask her for a thing.

i don't want or need anything from her. i'm set as far as financially and stability. all i really wanted was to know about her pregnancies so i could have a better understanding of what to expect while pregnant.

i don't know what to do. all i want is a relationship with my mother but she won't budge! she's so stubborn and bull headed. this happens to be a trait that iinheritedd from her so i'm not going to stop trying but i still need some advice. from mature people please.

my computer kicks me off the internet every fifteen min or so. i'm sure you can imagine how aggravating this must be, can anyone give me a hint or to so i can solve this irritating problem?

this question is of pure curiosity and is not to be used to reflect my opinion of people having both male and female genetic "qualities" if you will.
