My husband and I have been trying for 3 months in trying to conceive. I have been taking Clomid 100mg. wen supposed too. In hopes of it helping me ovulate more eggs. With that, I have been calculating my ovulation days and keeping track. Although, I am supposed to be getting my period Friday/Sat. I have not had any PMS symptoms like I have had prior such as, extremely moody, severe side cramps,etc. I do have all the symptoms of being pregnant though..cramps in uterus and ovary area (mild),tiredness,strong smells, morning sickness, tender breasts. I just found out that my blood work was sadly negative. Could I still be?

i am a little concerned because me and my partner just recently engaged in sexual intercourse,but it was weird. i think that there might have been cum on the outside of the condom,but only some like from my hands putting it on. i don't know how i can tell if i am pregnant besides waiting to see if i get my period.

My New Zealand white X Flemish giant doe may be pregnant she is really fat around the sides,she is eating lots,she is making wired sounds and acting differently is she pregnant? If she is how many young can i expect

Has anyone usually been regular and then been late on their period, but not pregnant? I've gotten sick lately and I was wondering if it could make me late. If this has happened to anyone how long did it take your period to come?

I have only been sexually active a couple months. I am not on the pill, but we always have protected sex (condoms) and they never have broken. last month I got my period on the second.. but that was a few days early because the month before I got it on the fifth. now it is the 6th and I still haven't gotten it... should I be worried?

Ok so I am now 27 weeks pregnant. I just started the third trimester. I have only had 1 ultrasound which was at 7 weeks. From my impression you are suppose to get an ultrasound each trimester to check development. My doctor told me I would get my next one around 25 weeks and when I went in for my December appt he never scheduled me one. So yesterday when I went in for this months check up I had to ask him about it and he said that they normally don't do ultrasounds. Does that sound a little off? From everything I've read and friends that went through this they had one each trimester accept for one she had more since she was more high risk. I mean aren't they suppose to be checking to make sure the baby is developing properly? I am thinking he forgot about it and made an excuse to why he hasn't scheduled one because when I mentioned it he said they don't do them, but I can have one if I want it.

im 8 weeks pregnant and i have been starting to wake up sore in my arm and the bottom of my back... i feel really weak and it is worst when im nausea... it started last wk after i been to the dr. so is this normal?? and does this suppose to happen

Okay so my friend thinks shes pregnant. we're teenagers so we don't know a lot about this. What are the best and most accurate tests? What are the first symptoms? Are abortions dangerous? Do you have to be a certain age to buy pregnancy tests in Virginia? Anything else I should know? Thanks so much

Hi everyone, I'm needing some opinions and advice. I am not due for my period until the 19th of this month and I have been experiencing some symptoms of maybe an early pregnancy or premenstrual symptoms. I cannot tell the difference. My symptoms are very sore and tender breasts the pain is not only inside my breasts but also underneath as well, some nausea from day to day but not lasting all day and it seems to be worse at night,stabbing/burning sensation in my lower right abdomen and frequent urination. My husband and I have been trying to conceive and for the past 3 weeks we have made love almost every night without protection. We also made love while i was on my period and during ovulation as well. I do not know if I am pregnant because I think it is too early to take a pregnancy test because I have not had my period yet for this month (jan...i did have one on december 17th) So I guess what I am wanting to know is if anyone has had this situation and has actually been pregnant or if they had these symptoms as pre pms symptoms? And in anyone's opinion, do they think that there might be a strong possibility that I may be pregnant? Thank you for your time, it is greatly appreciated!! God Bless Cassandra

im 25 almost 26 weeks pregnant...today i started having some new feelings in my stomach...this is my first baby and maybe only a lit paranoid...I would have immediately gone to the dr's however we don't have insurance(long story) and have not heard back from medicaid yet so im just curious about the difference between braxton hicks and typical growing pains?

After my happily ever after fell apart I decided that I would try again. I believed that love does exist and there is someone out there that would sweep me off my feet and love me forever. I have to wonder why I would believe that. Didn't Cinderella, snow white, sleeping beauty, the little mermaid, and all other fairytale princess go through a horrible time but end up madly in love. Now that I'm pregnant I'm wondering if I want my little girl to grow up watching all the movies that filled me with hopes and dreams of a fake life where men save women and women look like a million dollars even when the witch is chasing them down. Does anyone else share this theory with me? Or maybe life has always been like this but we have better ways to track statistics on divorce and multiple relationships now.

Hi I am 17th weeks pregnant. I go to have a walk, but whenever I walk my legs pain a lot at night. What should do? Should I still walk or stop it. Please advise.

Hi All, I am 28 years old. I have a lump under my armpit which comes and goes. I had it since almost 4 to 5 years. I have been to many doctors but everyone suggested me its a lymph node or hair follicle. Sometimes I felt it was never there and sometimes it pained. Now I am pregnant, it pains a lot sometimes and soetimes it doesnt. I showed it to my gynac. he said in pregnancy you get such lumps so dont worry. and until I give birth to baby I can not do any xrays or treatment. Also little difference in 2 nipples is common? Please advice me, I want to have a healthy baby and I want to breast feed my baby. Difference in 2 nipples means, one arola is slightly bigger than the other.

I just went to the bathroom and saw very very light brown on my underwear and when I wiped, there was really really light pink on the tissue. I've been on the pill for 3 months and have never missed one, but right now I'm on my placebo pills so I am expecting a period. I have terrible cramps, but no heavy bleeding. I've never started my period this light before. I had sex many times last month (no condom, but he never comes in me), the earliest would be December 6th. That's the earliest time I could have gotten pregnant and that was exactly a month ago. What do you think? Should I just wait and see what happens? Have you ever been in a similar situation? What happened? Why does it depend on how old I am? I'm on the pill, I menstruate, and have sex.

Me and my fiance have a monogamous relationship. For which we have unprotected intercourse using the withdrawal method. Although we aren't planning in having a child soon if we we're to be blessed we would be delighted to keep it. It's been couple years now. Is there something wrong with him? Or is there something wrong with me?

I stopped taking Yaz after almost two years in October then i got my period right away. I got my period again in November but it's now been 6 weeks since then. I know it could take a while for my body to get used to being off the pill but since I already got my period after the pill I thought I returned to normal. I had unproteceted sex once but we were very careful, could i be pregnent or most likley is my body still adjusting? Thank you

I'm 12 weeks pregnant and vomit almost after every meal. After I eat I feel like the food is caught in my throat. This causes me to gag then throw up. My doctor has given me three different things now to help this and nothing is working. I'm very hungry but just can't keep the food down. This has been going on since about week 7. I was hoping it would stop by now but no luck! I've also tried eating smaller meals, drinking meals, exercising, getting more fiber. Has this happened to anyone else? Do you have any suggestions?

She is about a year old. She is a out door cat and I spayed her a while ago and I don't think it took. She is much smaller than the other cats in my neighborhood and I'm afraid she will get hurt.

When you want to become pregnant, after your partner 'cums' in your, do you just lie there, put your legs up, or what? Or just go on like normal?

The person i know is 27 years old and 19 weeks pregnant she recently had amniotic fluid test and a ultrasound the doctor told her that baby has down syndrome and hydrocephalus. Now I've talked to her and she thinking about having an abortion. I know it's her choice. She told me members of her family say just leave it to god and let it be what it has to be....But does anyone one here have similar experiences or maybe words of encouragement that i can provide her with would help a lot. Thank you all in advance

What is an average day of eating for you? Do you follow a nice healthy diet? Or do you eat whatever it is that you want to eat? With my first pregnancy up until my third trimester I ate very healthy no soda and I had junk like once a month, ha. Now with this one I eat a little bit of junk and my hubby gets upset with me because he wants me only drinking water and like one cup of juice a day, and he wants me eating really healthy no chips, no pizza or junk period. I've just really been craving fruits, cheese, and PIZZA. Ha. Average day of eating for me is. Bowl of cereal or toast (or both!) Then a snack, fruit or cheese Then lunch witch is always some kind of sandwich. Then another snack usually pretzels or cheese Then dinner. Then at night I usually keep snacking on whatever dinner was.

What are my chances?

I started my period on January 3rd, and I started charting my BBT this morning. I've found out the days I ovulate, and how to check my cervical mucus, etc. I'm very ready to get pregnant, but I'm trying not to stress about it because I don't want to get discouraged. My goal this month is to tell my husband that I'm pregnant around or on valentines day. But is it REALLY common to get pregnant on your first try? I've heard it wasn't. And that's discouraging. Please let me know. Dont tell me something just because it may make me feel better or you think its just something I want to hear lol. Any other advice would be helpful as well! Thanks

New Years eve 2008 i was rape by someone i thought was my best friend. i was at a house party at my friend cousin party.i was drunk everyone was drunk ( well at less not everyone but most were) i was so drunk that i couldn't walk straight i kept falling out. it was crazy and most of it couldn't remember. i told my friend that i needed to lay down and sleep it off. so he took me to his cousin room to lay down. my other friend which is a boy his name is jay ,came in there to talk on the phone, while my other friend Micheal took my shoes off and then tried to take my pants off . i kept on pulling them back up and he pull them back down then all of the sudden i just blacked out. i kept on telling him to stop but he didn't and my so called friend jay didn't do anything . i remember hearing him saying dont be long and walked out the room. like 10 min i woke up i was still drunk , i woke up with my pants halfway off and i was bleeding and i wasnt suppose to get my period until that following week .the boy micheal and jay was no where to be found, i was crying and i told my sister that i got rape and so took me outside to talk to me while she was going to call my brothers and everyone she knew to find them and jump him untill i stop her and told her not to tell because i was afraid . but she told anyway i didnt say anything. my mom and my big brothers was the madess of all they wanted to kill him. they went to the police ,they didnt do anything. i had to take tests and pills and things like that. they look him up and he was wanted for rape 2 other girls too. for like a whole month i didnt say anything to any one i stop talking to my friends and everything. and the worst thing about it i was a virgin. now when people touch me i dont feel real comfortable. i have a boyfriend and sometimes i get mad about how he touches me , he noes what happen he'll just say hes sorry or whatever. im 18 now then i was 17. i dont noe what happen to the boy micheal last i heard that someone beat him up so bad that he was in the hospital because he was in the wrong neighborhood. my family didnt beat him up they never did find him, it would of been worst if they did. i dont think theres a way to get over it. im just really mad that he was the one to take my virginity away but my mom said im still a virgin untill i let the one i love take it away. now i DO NOT TRUST ANYONE and i DONT DRINK ANYMORE. i just thank God that i didnt get pregnant and didnt have any kind of diseases or anything

I know some woman from work, where their husbands completely change after their wives get pregnant. they say they become distant, less affectionate, and even mean. Why is this?

so my bf and i have been together and since then he put his fingers inside my vagina. well..now my period is late. he said that he had no sperm on his hands. he didnt go really deep. and i am a virgin. i have been stressed out about possibly being pregnant so that could be a reason i havent gotten my period yet. but i am really scared that i may in fact be pregnant. so someone..pls tell me if i am or am not.

I have heard so many of my friends who have gotten pregnant say, that they feel different they get a weird feeling and they knew they were pregnant, not morning sickness or symptom wise. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??? like weird how can anyone explain?

What would you do/say? If you're a man, would you ever have sex knowing you could get pregnant?

Hii everyone. So i know i have to be pregnant! I'm over five weeks late on my period. . . and there is no other answer im not stressed i just look at it as if it happens it happens god wanted me to have this. But im not sure because right around a week or two ago, i had this brownish pink when i wiped from using the bathroom i don't know if this was implantation bleeding or not, it lasted for about three days and never was heavy and didn't have a smell but definitely it was not one of my regular periods? So if anyone knows what it was could you tell me? Also in my family we usually don't have a positive on are test for awhile but i don't know if i really am. I know you guys can't tell me if i am or not i just wanna know what you women have experienced and tell me whats happing to my body?? bbt im ttc

Ok so I did my research and I know the signs of being pregnant and all and I know I should test after I missed my period but what i need to know is what I can't find. I have been on birth control for the past 3 months. Since august. So now its almost 4. I have had unprotected sex numerous amounts of time and haven't gotten pregnant but this time it was different. I looked up an ovulation chart and it said my last day to ovulate was the 30th. Well a few days before that I forgot to take my pill. which was stupid of me. But anyways. On the 30 me and my fiancee had unprotected sex and he came inside of me. I took my pill that morning/afternoon like an hour before we had sex but I don't remember if I took it that night. I lost my dad's keys and since my pills were in his car locked I couldn't take my pill for 3 days until get got a key form a shop. and that day I took it. I have been taking it everyday now but my question is could I still be pregnant. My AF comes on friday. if i am pregnant is there a big or small chance it will still arrive? Do you think I am pregnant? Also my legs have been killing me all day, I have a huge migraine. My stomach was really upset this morning and today I got heartburn out of no where for like 20 minutes and i have a clear slimy discharge (sorry if TMI)

My core temperature my entire pregnancy has been 96.7...I've gotten a cold recently, but I don't know if I have a fever...When I take my temperature now, it's 98.1..Would that be considered a slight fever?

Last month (December 3rd-7th) i got my period on time everything was fine this month i had spotting it started the 2nd of january and ended the 3rd so i took a hpt (home pregnancy test) on the 4th i had no bleeding and this isn't normal for me not to bleed i didn't even need to use a pad it came up positive then i took another two came up positive again mind you i took this the 4th right around the time i was soposed to have my period so i asked a friend she told me to call my doctor i did right away on the next day which was yesterday i went in and got a blood test done my doctor had called me back and said my HCG level is at a 3 and she wants me to be at a 6..she said that it was positive but it could be a false positive pregnancy it makes absolutely no sense to me..she sad if it doesn't go up she will consider it negitive i think i ovulated the 21st and i think i may be one or two weeks pregnant is this normal being so early to be at a 3? I hope it goes up now i think something is wrong with me i have normal periods EVERY month and now this spotting it's just crazy exspecially with the positive urine tests i just need awnsers thank you for any advice it is very much appreciated. :(
