We have decided on this name for our new daughter but which spelling should I go for Ava, Avah or Ayva?? I know there are other ways but these are the 3 ways to spell it that I like, but can't decide which to go for...opinions would be much appreciated!!

We are in the process of trying to rent a house. We need to move due to my husbands work so are desperate to get this house! My husband is self employed and I do not work as we have 4 young children. We both do not have brilliant credit histories, so my brother in law is being a guarantor for us. He is employed and has a good credit history. The one thing worrying me is for a couple of months my husband has had cheques bounce...or come in late from clients, which has made our rent a few days late. We are not in arrears and are a month in advance but she has told the letting agents she has had problems getting our rent, when she gave a reference. It has infuriated me. Has she ruined our chances of moving. I can not believe how difficult this whole situation has been!!

Why is it if you type a username into google it comes up with that persons personal details that you have registered on a particular site. I use another name and found it came up with my home address and other stuff. Why do Google do this..it's very disturbing!

easily or does have to really mean something for you to say it? Like for example my mum will tell me she loves me on the phone, but I can't say it back, even though I know I love her. My nan was dying she told me she loved me and I said it back with true meaning.

My 3 year old shows some characteristics of autism. It's something I wouldn't even thought about until my sister (who worked with children) mentioned it. He has an obsession with thomas and trains and everything has to be in a order. He also has to win at everything and if he doesn't it will lead to him have a nasty tantrum where he punches and kicks me. I hate it when I am out and this happens as people stare. He has always been hard work and now I am beginning to think is he autistic? I will take him to the doc but just want to know if any other mums or people out there who have children with it/or you have it...do you think this sounds like autism, and what other signs should I look for?

I was diagnosed with this a few months back and have been referred for Therapy, but it isn't until Jan as there is such a long waiting list. I don't have rituals I have obsessive thoughts. I am fine for a long time but then something can trigger my thoughts off again. I just wanted to know until my theraphy starts how can I block out the thoughts...besides keeping active which I find helps! Anyone else with this illness, any advice would be much apreciated.

Does anyone else hate their new stuff as much as I do? I was a huuuge fan and thought Hot Fuss was amazing, then they released Sams town, which was a huge disappointment. I have recently heard their newest song from sawdust and it was a bore fest. Come on killers, get rid of those tashes and bring back the eye liner and the good music!!!

Wow what a story?? At last a story with a happy ending, I'm so glad the operation was a success.

Ok I know it's not a question but it was a good story to share : )

A little girl has fallen from a balcony in Majorca. They can't find the parents. Hope this case gets solved quicker than a certain different one. I know both are different, but this one looks like the parents are definitley to blame.

Story here....

I can really feel what it is like to be in a different colour skin when my 15 month old cuddles her black dolly in the buggy. The looks she gets is just disgusting. My sister has a mixed race son and gets the same looks as the damn doll....why does this still go on...it makes me so cross.

I am a mum to 4 children. My eldest is 10 and my 3 young ones are 4, 3 and 15 months. When I go out I always get looked at and if I had a pound for every time someone said "you've got your hands full" I would be a millionaire!! I was in the doctors surgery Wednesday when an old woman said "God she's been busy" I really wanted to say something but kept quiet...I'm not deaf!!! My point is I feel people are against large families these days and I also think people assume alot of other things. I wanted to know how other mums with 3 or more kids are treated and do you feel like I do??

My mother in law sends cards every year but this year nothing, but what makes it even worse is my son will be 3 tomorrow and she hasn't even sent a card for him!! I am of course annoyed, not so much about my card but for my son...who at the end of the day is her grandson. If I moan my husband sticks up for her...would this annoy anyone else?

I got my tickets months ago and still have not recieved them. I got them from seetickets and they emailed me and appologised and said If I havn't recieved them 5 days before the event then contact them. The event is in December and at Manchester. Is there anyone else going to see them that have not got their tickets either??

I know the top half is a lady with no legs but how the hell did she walk to the table like she does?? It warped my mind!!

Do you know how they put famous couples names together....like Brad and Angelina become Brangelina....what would you and your partner become?

I personally was a Yazz fan but remember all the girls in class being brosettes!!!!

I am so bored I thought I'd waste 5 points and ask!!

I am so angry with myself. Have just failed my driving test for the 2nd time. I just wanted to know how many times it has taken other peolpe, and if you failed twice or more how did it make you feel?

My nephew is 6 weeks old and my sister noticed a few weeks ago that his left side of his head is totally flat. He will only sleep in his moses basket on his left side and also when in his pram. We both thought it was obviously because he is sleeping always on his left. The health visitor is sending him to a special clinic that specialises in heads which has now got my sister worried and I'm also concerened. She has also recommended putting him on his right and trying him to look at toys on his right. Has anyone else ever been through this so I can tell her and put her mind at rest. Thanks.

My sister recently had a baby boy, she is white british and dad is afro carribean. It got me thinking about as he gets older which race will he feel more connected with. I wanted to know from anyone who is of mixed race, wether it be japanese, chinese, mexican, etc which of your race backgrounds are you more in touch with?

I hope no one finds this question offensive, I just thought it would be interesting to know.
