is 8 months too early to breed a dog?

I have two cockapoo puppies, they’re brother and sister. and they’re about eight and a half months old. They’ve been “mating” A LOT lately…like nonstop. And it’s totally natural, we’re not doing anything to them. I’m worried because my female is having all the signs of pregnancy, enlargment of nipples, enlargement of vulva, help!
It’s not my fault, I’m just a kid.
yeah this is not good at all.
We’re gonna get her fixed really soon. So if they’re still mating, she’s not preg?
well there’s still a chance that she’s not. I don’t even know if her eggs are developed, so…?
oh great. not!
how much does it cost to have a girl fixed?

Which IUD is right for me? ParaGard or Mirena? Or neither?

I am 26 years old and originally went on the birth control pill 10 years ago to help with heavy periods and paralyzing cramps. I spent 5 years on the pill and 5 years on the NuvaRing. After all this time I have decided I am done with hormones and went off of the ring 2 months ago. Hormones were preventing me from losing weight (by increasing my appetite significantly), were causing me horrible mood swings, depression and irritability, and were contributing to my chronic migraines and yeast infections.

Non-hormonal birth control has left me with barrier options. I have tried regular latex condoms which irritate me and give me a yeast infection every time I use them. I tried non-latex condoms which irritated me even more than latex. I’ve tried the sponge which cramped my bladder (I have a bladder condition) and also gave me a bladder infection. I believe this eliminates any other barrier method as I can not tolerate the materials they are made of or items pushing against my bladder. Is there anything left other than IUD?

I have looked into natural family planning and the error rate is too high for my comfort. I am only concerned about pregnancy right now and not STDs. Steralization is not an option for me or my boyfriend. We have no kids and may want them one day.

If I do get an IUD, which should I choose? My periods are not as heavy as they were 10 years ago, but they are still heavy for 3-4 days and last a total of 6-7 days. I have horrible cramps and migraines starting 3 days before my period and continuing 3 days into it. I usually miss several days of work in this time frame and have to take pain killers. It is my understanding that a copper IUD will increase these symptoms… is this true?

If I choose the Mirena IUD I am back to the hormone issue. My doctor says the hormones are only local and will not affect me, but I don’t believe her. Has anyone experienced hormonal side effects with Mirena? My doctor also told me my periods would be irregular for 6 months – 1 year on Mirena as well as cramping/bleeding for several months after insertion. I would prefer to reduce my periods and cramping, not increase them. I have read so many horror stories about both IUDs online. Any feedback on either? Or other suggestions for me? Have you tried either or both IUDs? What was your experience?

Thanks!!

I know mood swings are normal, but is this really a mood swing?

Ever since the doctor told me they wouldn’t induce me until week 41, even though the baby is over 9 pounds, I have been manic. I am usually so level headed, a natural leader, the person you want in a crisis.

Now, I yell at inanimate objects like staplers to the point that i am screaming and then crying that I am screaming and acting so odd. I have extreme road rage, then cry hysterically because I see a 2 year old fall down and then get back up.

I am losing my mind…is there some mental condition you can get at the end of your pregnancy that makes you act this way? Or is this really just normal?

What would you do if you were in my shoes (10 fast points for best answer)?

Alright I’m facing a real problem here. This is pretty hard to go through. My girlfriend is extremely concerned about being pregnant but the problem is it might not be my child. So here is our situation.

She had a devastating breakup about 7 months ago with her boyfriend of two years. He once told her he loved her, and although she won’t admit it I think he just told he loved her so he could have sex with her. He broke her heart saying hes not in love with her anymore, and she didn’t understand it. I don’t know the whole story but the friendship they had ended when he called her dirt, spat on her. And slept with her best friend.

Now during those months she was devastated she was heart broken, and she couldn’t trust guys she hated guys. She would spend a lot of nights getting drunk and having one night stands. Most of them mistakes. My guess is she was taken advantage of a lot of time. But at the same time shes very sexual so she didn’t put up much of a fight.

Two months ago when she now knew me but she just had a crush on me. I didn’t make a move as quickly as she would of liked. She ended up having one last night one stand . Her mom just had her start birth control, and she had unprotected sex. She told the guy make sure he pulled out but he never did. Instead he stopped pretty early and told her she needs to take a break. And he just left, she thinks he went in her

Couple weeks later I made a move. At the time I didn’t know much about her past. She was really sweet and cute and appeared innocent at work. All I really knew is she had the biggest crush on me and it was no secret. She is absolutely beautiful so how could I resist.

Everything felt so natural and came together quickly. She has fallen in love with me, she trusts me. And I am exactly what shes looking for. The one thing that’s always been weird is. Every single time we have had sex its been unprotected. Shes on birth control but we have never had protected sex. We talked about condoms but she never pushed them on me, and in her past all her sex was protected before this one guy and of course me. The difference being every time I have pulled out and we have had sex about 25-30 times now.

So she thinks shes pregnant. She often feels tired, she has to pee a lot, her breast are tender, and we have both noticed they have gotten bigger. She didn’t have her period this weekend when it was expected and still has not had it. And apparently she had her period after she was with this guy and with me but she says it could be break through bleeding and it was not her actual period.

So Thursday we are going to get her a pregnancy test. I have been really supportive of her. But things are not looking good these are noticeable changes and its scary. I have to be supportive and make her feel better, but at the same this is tearing me up. The girl I love can be carrying a baby and that should be wonderful. But not at this point in my life. I’m 19 years old and not ready for this. She is 16 is definitely not ready for this.

The only hope is that she took a Plan B after what happened with this guy. She was hoping that was the end of it. We are going to find out Thursday for sure. She has already asked me if I would take her to get her an abortion so her mom would never know. I don’t know if I can do that, but its her decision and I have to support her.

This is extremely difficult, please need some opinions or answers or something. I honestly don’t know what to do. If its my kid I don’t want her to get an abortion. But if its not I don’t know what I want. I don’t want to be the father of a bastard child that’s not mine. I don’t want her to kill the baby though. I don’t know what to do.
