Open Question: This girl lied to me about being pregnant. Would it be fair/justified/mature/hilarious to lie back to her?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 05:24:32 GMT)
I want to tell her that I got tested and have hep, just to fuck with her. How funny of a prank would this be. I was a mess all of last week when she said she was pregnant, I think its only fair to get her back and convince her to get tested herself. On a scale from 1-10, how funny would it be?

Open Question: could i be pregnant after my abortion?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 05:12:13 GMT)
I had an abortion on February 10th 2009. I had unprotected sex on march 14th. is it possible that i could be pregnant again? When we had had sex i had some small cramps in my abdomen. is it possible that i could be ovulating? the past few days since then ive had cramps. My doctor said to take a test in 2 weeks ( i went to the follow-up appointment on the 15th) and the test will be accurate. i just would like others opinions! thanks!
*** any bashing about my decision will be reported.***
Also: We did use a condom, it broke; hence, (involuntary) unprotected sex. I know plenty about birth control. And the bashing was not about my decision to have sex, i was refering to my decision to get an abortion.
To everyone who thinks abortion is wrong or that i made the wrong decision:
Mind your own business. no one told you you had to read my post. unless your somehow related to my personal life (which none of you are) do not tell me i made the wrong decision. i made a decision that was right for me, my baby, and my finacee. Get over yourselves holy rollers

Open Question: My husband and I are TTC, my period is late but I've gotten 5 negative tests?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 03:34:44 GMT)
I don't know if I should go get a blood test, or keep waiting it out. My "girls" were incredibly sore for a week and a half and my period is already 7-10 days late (I flux between a 28-31 day cycle), but I've taken 5 tests and all have come back negative. Did anyone else have this issue when they were pregnant?

Open Question: whats going on... pregnant ?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 03:26:11 GMT)
so I had an ab in the middle of december 09. (please do not crit. me, it was not my choice, I totally regret it and will never do it again.)
I had unprotected sex 5 days after it, and I started bc on the same day (yes I already know I was suppost to wait to have intercourse, and that bc is not effective right away)
I continued to have unprotected sex a lot and he did finish in me. I took the day after pill 3 times late decemeber and I think maybe one in early January. The clinic doctor told me I was suppost to get my period around January 10th 2010. I stopped taking bc a few days- a week before I was suppost to get my period... because i heared you can easily get pregnant after an ab. and I want to be safe because I would keep it. I was getting cramps before January 10th, and than I starting having a lot of discharge. I think it started with white discharge, than in late january or earlier febuary it changed to light brown, than dark brown. Towards the end of Febuary I started bleeding, I noticed I was a little bit after intercourse, than within a few hours I started bleeding (it wasn't spotting really, it looked like a normal period).. and I continued to bleed for the rest of the night, the next day, than it stopped by the next morning. I continued to have some cramps, and the discharge. I also have been having unprotected sex since after the ab in decemeber. The discharge turned to a lightish yellow color a few weeks ago, and its still continueing.
I have been feeling a little sick lately, but not quite like throwing up yet (I threw up in my last pregnancy at about 10 weeks) I have been going to the bathroom a bit more I think, and I have been a little bit more tired, and I have been more emotional and stressed out lately. (theres also things in my life right now causing me to stress out.. but I usually dont break down and cry a lot or get my self too worked up)
please tell me what you think? I dont want any rude comments, please. I am simply just looking for peoples opinions on what might be going on. I cannot get to a doctor until April, and last time my pregnancy test showed negative when I was 4 weeks (it was a first response test too) so I am not going to get a test.

Open Question: is he being insensitive or am i being unreasonable for being upset?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:58:58 GMT)
ok lets see if i can give you guys the short version.. i am 33 weeks pregnant, and a week ago this past Sat. my 29 yr old baby brother passed away suddenly in his sleep. the night before his death he had been out and had drank way too much, so we are thinking that contributed to his death although until the reports come in we won't know 100% for sure... alright, well today was my husbands twin sister and brothers 21st birthday and so the family threw them a huge cookout/birthday party. i have already resolved to the fact that they would all be drinking, but i asked my husband not too drink too much because, well obviously because of what just happened to my brother, and so that i wouldn't stress or worry. well, about 9:00 pm i decided to come home because i had to get our 2 yr old to bed, so i left him in the safety of his parents house. well, he just called me about 10 minutes ago and said the parents made them all leave because they have to work early in the am, so everyone went to the sisters house to party. when he called i could tell he had already had alot to drink and so i begged him to please once again, not drink too much. and his response was, calm down and stop being so dramatic i'll be home later on tonight, i love you, bye???and he hung up.. do you think that it is unreasonable of me to ask him not to drink too much given the stress i have been under lately with my brothers death and the sketchiness of it maybe being cause by alcohol? or do i have a right to be upset because he is being totally insensitive to me right now. my heart is broken over my brother, i don't want to have to worry about losing a husband to the same damn thing... what do you guys think? thanks..

Open Question: what is wrong with me?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:39:26 GMT)
I'm almost 20. My last period was Feb. 5. At the end of Feb, beginning of March I was having stomach problems. I started getting really hungry and therefore started eating more. In the past 3-4 weeks I have gained 10 lbs. I am ALWAYS tired. My average sleep is 6-8 hours per night. Then I take 3-4 hour naps during the day. I usually fall asleep in my college classes. I pee all the time this has happened the past few weeks (2-3 weeks). I wont even drink anything and have to pee. I took pregnancy test 3 days ago and it said negative so I know I'm not pregnant (even though everyone including my parents have asked me that) so what on earth could it be?

Open Question: Sore Boobs and Nausea..?
(Thu, 18 Mar 2010 01:01:57 GMT)
About a week ago my nipples started hurting a lot, for no reason. Then my breasts started hurting as well. Now it's just my boobs. They're so sore!
About 10 days ago I started feeling really nauseous. Waking up in the middle of the night about to throw up. I've been feeling nauseous on and off for the past 10 days.
And really tired, although that's not really all that new for me..
I have a mirena/coil. I have been with my boyfriend, but we used a condom as well. So there is a VERY small chance I could be pregnant, but it is a VERY VERY small one.
I don't get my period on the mirena and these are new symptoms for me (especially the boobs and the waking up feeling like I'm going to throw up)
Anyone know what could be wrong?
I'm going to the doctor on Monday (earliest they could see me)
Thanks!

Open Question: For pregnant mommies?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 22:55:24 GMT)
I'm just bored and curious...
Do you know what you're having?
Do you have any names picked out?
If this isn't your first, is it different than your previous pregnancy(s)?
Feel free to share anything else.
Good luck and Congratulations! :D
I'm 38 weeks along with a little girl (10 days to go!!!). We'll be naming her Brooklynn Danielle. My hubby is deployed so he's going to miss this one but I'm sure we'll be taking tons of pictures and videos.
My last pregnancy I had terrible morning sickness but this pregnancy I barely had any. I also didn't have very many cravings during my last pregnancy and didn't have much of an appetite but this time I'm eating like a cow and I'm constantly craving pickle O's (fried pickles), kiwi, watermelon, and mexican food.

Open Question: 10 weeks pregnant with brownish watery discharge?

10 weeks pregnant with brownish watery discharge?
Is this possibly normal? I have had it for about a week and a half. I still have all my preggo symptoms. It does not show up on toilet paper only on a panty liner. I am so scared because I have miscarried in the recent past, but it was nothing like this. No pink or red blood and no cramps. It seems really watery. I have an appointment for the heart doppler and cervix exam tuesday. Has anyone had any experience with this? Any help is appreciated!
thanks ladies! you all are so informative and kind ;)

Open Question: why 60% chance to have a c-section if cervix is not ready on induction day?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:18:11 GMT)
i am 39 weeks pregnant with my 4th child and i am scheduled to get induced on friday but they told me that they may not do it since my cervix is not ready .
i don't understand why they say that i will have a c-section if my cervix does not soften with this gel , can't they just stop the induction since it is not a medical reason ?
with my first son i was induced 10 days before the due date and my cervix was not ready but it only took 6 hours until he was born vaginal .

Open Question: Grown man acting like a child?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:10:15 GMT)
My husband suddenly wants out of our marriage now that I am pregnant with our second child. I've cried a million tears already, and right now I'm just angry. He didn't start acting different till he started hanging out with this new group of guys. All they do is hang out all the time, smoke pot, and ride around acting like kids. They are all younger than my husband, which is 25. I'm thinking that he may be trying to "get his youth back" (which he is still young) and might be trying finish sowing his wild oaks. I don't know but he never hardly comes home anymore. When he does, it's always past 10 pm. We've already got a daugther, and he is missing out on her life, which pisses me off severely.
Anyway, he says he is filing for divorce. The thing is that we've basically been getting along just fine (other than having to deal with the tension of him being gone so much). I don't know what the hell his problem is. It's like he's having some sort of early mid life crisis. He says he doesn't love me anymore, and when he says it, it doesn't seem like he means it. I feel like his new "buddies" are pushing the issue trying to get him to leave me so they can have him all to themselves. He spends most of his money on them, buying pot for them and taking them out to eat. He also rides them around everywhere, so of course they want to see more of him.
He says he is going to move out and get his own apartment. He says he is just not ready to be a family man (too late). Nothing he is saying makes sense, nor does it seem like it is coming from him. When those guys don't call him, he stays home, and acts like himself. He is getting an apartment with the youngest guy, which is 20 and does NOT work. This is all very hurtful, but now I'm just pissed.
He only makes 300.00 per week after taxes. The apt. he wants is 380.00 per month. His power will probably be around 80.00 - 100.00, and then there is the water bill, gas for his truch, CHILD SUPPORT, ailimony (if I qualify) food, and his truck payment which is 180.00 per month. My question is, how the hell does he think he is going to do all this? He only makes 1200.00 per month.
I personally don't think he is thinking about the extra responsibilty of having his own place, plus child support, paying all of his own bills, having to support a 20-year old guy, etc. As long as we've lived together, we've always split the bills down the middle, and have a home that is payed for. I think the only thing he is thinking about is having a place where him and his dumbass friends can hang out and party. I mentioned the cost of everything to him the other day, and then he got reeeeaaaaly quiet, and went outside and just stared for like 30 minutes. He also started being sweet toward me again. He is so confusing to me right now. It's like he is just too easily influenced! He is my husband, and I do love him dearly. We've been together for almost 7 years. I was just trying to open his eyes to what he is really doing, not what he dreaming of doing. It's not going to be easy for him by no means, I just wish he could see that and tell his friends (which are by the way, counting on him to leave me) to fuck off.
I just feel like he has no idea what he is getting himself into. I can see it clearly, but he obviously cannot.

Resolved Question: Too all you sufferers of PUPPPS in pregnancy and just some advice that might be good for all pregnant ladies!?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:23:41 GMT)
I started suffering with PUPPPS in pregnancy around 3 weeks ago and it was absolute hell it was all over my body every doctor and midwife i went too had to knowledge of it and me and my partner added up diagnosing myself and after 10 sleepless nights, literally sleepless!!!!!!! We finally found a cure. They say it is incurable as its caused by the baby so will only go away once the baby was born...i refused to accepted this as i was so low at the thought of suffering with this hell for the next 4 weeks. My partner searched books and the web all night and finally found a few woman who said that dandelion root capsules had cleared it up. there were plenty of woman hu said creams and oils had soothed it slightly but these women said it literally cleared it up!!!!! I went out and bought it from holland and barrett the next day and as soon as i started taking them my itchiness started to subside. It as like a miracle. So i would say for any sufferers of this take dandelion root capsules!!!!!!!!!! I am now 36 weeks + 2 days off my due date an can finally start enjoying my last few weeks of pregnancy again. :)
Th other information for general mummies to be was that, what dandelion root does is help your liver...and when your pregnant your liver is working overtime and can get very overtaxed. This is what causes PUPPPS. Im definately going to take a small doasge of one capsule a day of dandelion root next time i am pregnant. I think we all forget about our livers an how much they do for our bodies. :)
Anyone else got any tips for staying healthy in pregnancy????????
Thanks. :) xxx

Open Question: why haven't i come on my period?!?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:10:04 GMT)
i'm sixteen years old, i started my periods quite late at 14 yet they've always been quite regular, i'd have to odd occasion where they were two weeks late but recently they've been on a pretty much 28 day cycle, maybe being a couple of days late each month. I'm very small at 5ft and only weigh 6 and a half stone. Recently i've been on antibiotics for a month because i suffer from bad tonsilitus and ear infections, so my doctor gave me a long prescription so that i would get better. I'm still on the antibiotics at the moment. I have regular sex with my boyfriend but we always use condoms and as far as i'm aware they have only split once which was months ago and i took the morning after pill, i'm just very concerned as i was meant to come on my period on the 10th, i took a pregnancy test on monday, which was clearblue so very accurate apparently, and to my relief it said not pregnant, but still no period, i took another today which once again came up as not pregnant, but i still haven't come on my period. i've had bad tummy aches like i normally do before my period, but i've been having them all month due to side affects of my antibiotics. i don't have any pregnancy symtoms, apart from sore breasts but they've been like this for about a month.. i don't know if its due to my antibiotics, stress from illness, weight loss (i'm not aware of any but possibly as my weight does go down quite a lot when i become ill) or if i am pregnant, i don't know what to do? i hope this gave as much info as possible, thankyou for all help, much appreciated xxxx

Resolved Question: Could I actually be pregnant!? *10 pts best answer!*?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:56:02 GMT)
I am 22 and my husband and I are not using protection and we are having sex just about everyday. I have an uneven cycle but on average it's a 35 day cycle. I know when I am ovulating because I get the thick mucus and light cramps and headaches. We did have sex many times during this.
My period is over a week late but I have to neg. tests. I haven't taken one in about a week.
I don't want to keep getting my hopes up and taking tests.
What do you think?
I'm getting light cramping but I hardly notice it. My normal period cramping is horrible

Open Question: When did you go on maternity leave?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:52:27 GMT)
I'm currently 35 weeks pregnant and working part-time. I supervise visitation for kids in foster care and often transport the children or biological parents to the visitation site, some are over an hour and a half away. At first I thought I would go on maternity leave on April 2 as I did not want to put anyone at risk should I go into labor during a transport. However I would like to work right up until I go into labor with the local cases which my employer has a agreed to. Now I'm reconsidering as I feel they are taking advantage of me and have not made any plans for someone to take over my cases. I'm very hormonal, uncomfortable and also suffering from horrible allergies which makes it even harder to sleep at night. Any advice on what I should do? Stay until my delivery date and just suck it up or go on leave completely by 4/2/10?
Sorry to complain, I'm extremely excited about my baby just very ready for him to be here.

Open Question: you dont think this would have gotten me pregnant do you.. :(?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:15:45 GMT)
okay, before i start, i KNOW the pull-out method isnt usually effective, and i know pre-c*m can contain semen, but i've heard that thats only if the guy hasnt urinated since his last ejaculation..
im on birth control pills.. and recently (nearly 2 weeks ago, i had my pill-free week where you bleed) i had taken all of my pills correctly and bled for 7 days, including 2 more, so in total 9 days i bled.. i was due to go back on my pill on the 6th march 2010. i took it, however i was also taking antibiotics for honeymoon cystits, and i know the pill doesnt work as effectively if you take it with antibiotics.. anyway, that night, (saturday 6th march) my boyfriend and i had unprotected sex, using the pull-out method (i wasnt keen on doing this, but he promised he'd pull out 5-10 mins before ejaculation and that i'd swallow it so none of it went near my vagina - we did this) i also wasnt keen, because id taken my pill with antibiotics, but he said because i was still on my period (bleeding) and he wasnt going to ejaculate in me i wouldnt get pregnant... i worried myself a bit about it.. but not too much.. im just getting really sore boobs now, that come and go, but only hurt when i squeeze them.. i know that can be a side effect of the pill., but i didnt get it last month, but i had other side-effects instead.. i doubt im pregnant, i just want re-assurance/opinions..
thankyou! im 17 and really dont want a baby. x
yeah theres the plan b pill which can be taken up to 72 hours after sex.. but this was a week and 3 days ago now lol :)

Open Question: PREGNANT- In hospital- hubby not answering phone then yells at me- is this Ok?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:14:49 GMT)
Yesterday I am sent from my OB appt to hospital a few blocks away- preterm contractions again at 30 weeks. (Was admitted to hospital before at 23 weeks.) So I am calling hubby like mad fool at work- using his work number and cell number- he finally answers - talk briefly- have to go to get info from me. I have an infection that could be causing the contractions- am given antibiotics to see if helps- I AM CALLING HUBBY LIKE MAD WOMAN- no answer.
I am finally released 4 hours later- drive the few blocks home (and stop to get meds.) and low and behold HUBBY IS HOME EARLY from work. Says he went thru parking lot at hosp (few blocks away) and did nt see my vehicle. (WEL WOULDNT YOU CALL MY CELL TO SEE WHERE I AM- as I was admitted to a different high tech hosp the last time- AND he finally showed up that time 7 hrs later- it was his day off work.)
So later that night he is out on motorcycle ride- come home- parks in garage and he and his mom walk in??? He starts yelling at me for not opening the dorr for her- as says she was knocking. (Dog never barked.)
SO TODAY_ I look at our surveillance. HUBBY is home yesterday 2.5 hours before me. (REALLY TICKED NOW.) Must be in house playing his video game- so even if I WOULD have called the hosue he would not ahve heard/answered phone.
And his mother never knocked- she arrived like 10 seconds behind hubby and was holding the side door for him to let her in- YET SHE LET HIM YELL AT ME- and I JUST GOT HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL- and suppose to be on bed REST!!
ARE things things OK? and am just tripping from HORMONES?? Thank you ...

Open Question: Am I Pregnant? When Should I Take A Pregnancy Test?!?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 18:44:36 GMT)
I've asked this question a couple of times but haven't got many answers. I also have new information.
I had unprotected sex twice. One time, he tried to withdraw but wasn't sure if he did it on time. The second time, he actually came inside of me. (Irresponsible and stupid, I know. You don't have to tell me.)
The first time was at like 4 AM on Wednesday morning (where he did withdraw but was unsure) and the second time was at like 6 AM on Thursday morning (where he actually came inside me). That Thursday we went and got the Plan B One-Step pill.
This all occured last week. (Wednesday March 10 - Thursday March 11) It is now Monday March 15.
I also had my last period February 26 - March 7.
When can I take a pregnancy test to hopefully make sure I'm not pregnant?
Also, today, I bagan getting brown discharge down there. Could this have anyhing to do with whats going on? I've already had my period so I know it can't be that... Then again, I do sometimes have irregular periods.
Today is exactly a week from the first time we did it (where he withdrawed but wasn't sure if he did it on time).
And tomorrow will be exactly a week from the second time we did it (where he definetly came inside of me.)

Resolved Question: Getting a shot after delivery because of blood type?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 18:14:49 GMT)
I'm 10 weeks pregnant, so I know I've got a while before I'll need to worry about this, but I'm just curious. My blood type is B negative, and my mom keeps saying something about a shot I may or may not need to get after I have the baby. Does anyone know what this is and why/when it's necessary?

Open Question: When should I tell my husband I'm pregnant?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:11:26 GMT)
I just found our I'm pregnant, I had been sick all week with what i thought was a flu...body ache, tired, runny nose, etc. but I now know I'm about 6 weeks pregnant. I've only been married for 6 months but I have a 10 year old son with him and he has a young son from another relationship. We have been fighting lately and don't know when is a good time to tell him. I don't want to wait too long but I don't want him angrier at me because this will add to the stress in our marriage. I am so scared right now!!!

Open Question: When/how do I tell my new employer I'm pregnant?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:11:20 GMT)
I am starting my new job at Jc Pennys this coming week. I will be almost 16 weeks pregnant at that point. In the interview she asked if I had any vacations coming up and I said I was going away in August for a week but didn't mention the fact that I am pregnant and due September 10th and would probably put my 2 week notice in so that I am done working by September 1st... And then I will be a stay at home mom for the first year or so... But who do I tell and when do I tell them that I am pregnant? I had originally not told them because up here it is so hard to get a job and I didn't want that to hurt my chances.

(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:02:09 GMT)
My Husband has been in Iraq for the past 10 months, except for when he came to visit a for a few weeks in December to early January (which is when I got pregnant) he is due to come back next month, but I miss him a LOT! He is my best friend and it's so hard being pregnant without him here.. I am 11 weeks so not that far along, but super excited that I am going to be having a baby especially since I had a chemical pregnancy about a year ago.. Anyways, just wondering if there were any of you women in the same spot as me!!
Thanks! I would LOVE to hear your stories! :)

Open Question: pregnancy at work, feel like my manager is bullying me?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:00:10 GMT)
im 10+5 wks pregnant and last week i called into work sick as i'd fainted a couple of times beforehand and was very sick so decided to have bed rest for a couple of days n if it didnt get better then see my gp, after a couple of days i felt better and then started my annual leave holiday from work, but forgot to call work and let them know as my head was all over the place with worry etc, an error on my part i know, anyway next i hear is work isnt paying me untill i get in contact, tried to call them for 2 days and no answer, left a message which they go but were "too busy" to ring me back, now they're saying unless i get a med cert i wont get any pay - not my biggest concern, and i could face the sack - my biggest concern - rang gp, cant get sick note as its pregnancy related symptoms and my employer should take that into account, fair enough, but now am totally unsure about what im supposed to do etc. i know most of you have prob not been in this situation, but im feeling very vunerable and upset at how rude and abrupt my manager was on the phone with me, and the fact they told me i should have made more effort to contact them! i just want to know if anyone out there knows anything i can do.
xx
can i just say that i did not just up and leave, our holidays are allocated to us at the begining of the year and this was my allocated week, so they therefore knew of it

Open Question: Parents: How did you know you were done having kids? How long did you wait to make it permanent?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 14:36:06 GMT)
I know its kind of a personal question but your answers would be helpful.
Good morning everyone,
I was just wondering for those of you who are done having kids how did you know you were done?
For us I think we are probably done, but part of me doesn't want to make it permanent just yet. I really don't see us having any more kids. My husband thought he wanted more but now that we have our daughter, he said he really just wants her. All I ever wanted was 1 child, but I guess over the last several months I started to convince myself 2 wouldn't be that bad.
Right now its perfect, we just have her. We are able to meet all her needs and we will be able to meet most of her wants (when she is old enough to want things). We can provide for her a good education, lots of trips, she has that one on one undivided attention from both of us.
If we have another child I'm not sure we could give her the best, and what I want is to give her the best.
I'm super content with the way things are right now and so is my husband.
(I was raised as an only child for 10 years, I have a brother who is 3 years younger than me that I never saw, and 2 sisters (9 years younger and 14 years younger) I didn't know about....my father wasn't in the picture until I was a teen....and when I was 10 my mom had my half sister)
So I have been in both situations, I know what its like to have siblings but I also know what its like to be an only child. I think I would have been happy either way. I had a good childhood, I was never lonely. Ofcourse I always had a pet, I love animals. But as an adult I am glad I have my siblings. I do feel though that I had more opportunities (good schools, more trips, etc) than my brother and 2 sisters.
My husband was raised an only child. He has a half brother that is 15 years older than him, but they only lived in the same house for a short time. He had a chance to have a brother but his little brother was born stillborn. And to this day when he sees me with my siblings he always says "I wish I had siblings, the one chance I got it didn't happen" I think that really affected him badly, losing that brother.
So he had always said he wanted atleast 2 kids that way they would have each other, especially if anything ever happened to us. (My husbands parents passed away 6 months apart from each other...he hasn't had an easy road)
I agree, God forbid if anything ever happened to us, I don't want her to feel alone in this world.
But then again after this pregnancy, with all the scares and some complications (minor complications) and the labor and my body not wanting to do its job while in labor (they thought they were going to have to do a c-section after I had been in labor for 16 hours with no progression, thankfully I started throwing up (which I hate doing more than anything in the world) and that got her into the birth canal and I quickly finished dialating at that point. After 18 hours of labor, I finally had her. (I was induced due to high b/p a week early, but they don't think I ever would have gone into labor on my own....contractions never became regular or anything.)
I'm almost too scared to do it again. I also was severely anemic (even with the iron pills) and I lost a lot of blood during delievery, my blood wouldn't clot so they had to give me some medicine for that. I'm just scared of getting pregnant and again and it being too much of a risk. Even though the doctor said it would probably be okay (though I would be classified as high risk).
My biggest fear is leaving my daughter without a mother. So I almost feel like its playing russian roulette or something. But then again I don't know...it might be nice to have another child one day.
But I still only want her and want to be able to give her my undivided attention.
So I'm leaning toward being done.
The question is though how long to give it before we make it permanent? A year, 2 years, 5 years?
Anyways thanks for sharing

Open Question: Could an increase in fetal movement, breast leakage, and vaginal discharge mean labor is coming soon?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 14:04:08 GMT)
I'm 34 weeks (but measuring 38, and the baby is 10 days "bigger" than they think she should be on ultrasound). In the past two weeks I've noticed my daughter has gone from moving very little to moving almost all the time. Yesterday my breasts started leaking a lot, I've been having colostrum come out since I was 4 months pregnant, but yesterday it was making wet spots on my shirt the size of soft balls. I've also had a lot more vaginal discharge. Since the baby is measuring bigger and all these other things are happening (plus I've had a lot more Braxton Hicks in the past week) I was wondering if that could mean labor would be coming sooner.
Originally I was due April 18th according to my last period, but the baby was measuring a week smaller than that at my first ultrasound so they moved my due date back to the 24th of April. If I were to go off of my last period then I would be 35 weeks pregnant instead of 34. Any ideas?
I'm not saying I want her to come now, I want her to wait at least three more weeks just so she's full term.

Open Question: How high is the possibility of her being pregnant? (10 points for good answer)?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 13:31:42 GMT)
Ok so here are the details first:
She started her period on about the 8 or 9th of February (starting to bleed)... on the 12th was the last day that she was bleeding and thats when the accident happened. (the condom broke but i didnt come inside her... only pre come)
She felt a bit sick once for a few hours a few days later (but that would also be because she isnt too used to milk products and drank a lot of milk that day due to some health problems)
She didnt have any other symptons of pregnancy as far as i can tell. She didnt have any spotting either.
She doesnt know when she ovulated but she was very horny about 2 weeks after her period started... (but that doesnt really say anything) She checked her cervical mucus and during that time it was just very watery, but not that stretchy... Before that she was usually dry or it was just sticky
However she didnt have her period yet and its the 17th of March now.
She does have irregular period times where she is sometimes 2 weeks late.
So now i am asking: how high is the chance of her being pregnant?
she will take a pregnancy test soon but i want get some advice now already please.
thx for the help and some GOOD ANSWERS WITH EXPLANATION please please .

Open Question: my dogs teats are sagging slightly and producing milk is she pregnant ?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:01:14 GMT)
my dog ended her season about three weeks ago. She is five years old and had a litter when she was three. I did not plan on her having any more litters. I do not usually have to worry about roving males as my garden is enclosed and when i walk her she is never out of my sight. One problem is she has recently learnt to open the gate so she could have gotten out to the road but only for 10 minutes at the most. her back teats have been sagging a little since the last litter but they seem to be sagging slightly more then usual. Also she is producing milk from all her teats ??
Is she pregnant ?
To Rayven
Our garden is completly enclosed normally and my dog is let out a few times in the day to do what she needs to do by herself. The latch on the gate broke and we only found out after her season was finished so i dont know if she evan got out but it was a possibility. I suspect it is a phantom pregnancy as this is not how her last pregnancy went. I am only asking for advice because i am not an expert so if anyone has any information i would be gratefull :)
i also forgot to mention that she has not been fixed because of medical reasons and i do not want any more litters from her before you start to accuse me :/

Open Question: how can i tell if this isn't just all in my head??...suggestions please?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:00:29 GMT)
how can i tell if this isn't just all in my head??...suggestions please?
in the past i have had pregnancy symptoms and turned out not being pregnant....i even leaked colostrum on month!! the body really does some weird things if you want something badly enough :P
this month things seem different to me.....but how can i really tell?
-i have frequent urination (4-5 times at night and 1-2 times every hour during the day!)
-excessive sneezing (i didn't think this was a symptom until i noticed how much i was sneezing for seemingly no reason..and looked it up online-pregnancy rhinitis)
-1 specific food aversion; potato salad.....mainly the texture and consistency...it was real bad one day as i tried eating some and haven't tried since so i don't know if this has gone away or not)
-(TMI alert) one wipe's worth of clear/white mucusy/snotty discharge yesterday
-from about 4dpo-6dpo had an overall weird feeling...kind of light headed
-slight cramping on the left side for two or three minutes...short amount of time but very noticeable
-i have no idea if this could even be related, i really don't think so but i think itis weird--crusty ear wax in my right ear....hurts when i touch the spot where the wax builds up, but no pain if i don't touch it
-have gotten very slightly nauseous about three times
-slightly bloody nose (one time)
-increased sensitivity to some smells....this is noticeable because i normally have a terrible sense of smell
i've never gotten any of these symptoms before except the nausea and frequent urination..............everything else is new to me and is what seems to make this time stand out and feel different......and i've been trying for over a year and a half!!
but i'v almost resolved myself to come to the conclusion that i will never be able to know if my body is playing tricks on me or if i am truly pregnant...until i take a pregnancy test :P .....and i still have about 8-10 days before i can test---that is, if my cycle has become more regular
so how can i ease my mind? .......the sneezing really gets me the most!! i mean....iv barely been outside my house for the past several weeks so i dont know how it could be allergies...but what if it is?? timed perfectly to make me feel falsely pregnant!! ...UGH
thanks for any responses! i promise to pick a best answer ;)

Open Question: i need to know. pregnant?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 02:49:39 GMT)
I took HPTs once or twice a week the past 2 weeks and all negative. Yesterday and today 3 have come up with such faint lines its like I'm seeing things. The first 2 I thought were evap since the lines were supposed to be pink and were basically white(although I throw the tests away before the 10 min period it says not to look at them after). The 3rd one was a cheap equate one. Still a faint line but easier to see. I can't really go to a doctor right now because I don't want family knowing just yet. What do you think? I have also been experiencing symptoms off and on the past week or so. My aerolas are also starting to get darker. I don't know when I'm supposed to get a period because I got the implanon taken out about a month ago after just 2 weeks of using it. I asked this question already with no helpful answers. I was told to use clearblue but I don't trust that brand one bit. Has anyone had experience with this? Thanks in advance.

Open Question: I'm probably pregnant right?
(Wed, 17 Mar 2010 01:58:24 GMT)
I took countless HPTs these past 2 weeks and all negative. Yesterday and today 3 have come up with such faint lines its like I'm seeing things. The first 2 I assumed may have been defective since the lines were supposed to be pink and were basically white. I thought they were evap. But I throw the tests away before the 10 min period it says not to look at them after. The 3rd one was a cheap equate one. Blue was much easier to see but still a very faint line. Im probably pregnant right? I can't really go to a doctor right now because I don't want family knowing just yet. What do you think? I have also been experiencing symptoms off and on the past week or so with constant exhaustion but unable to sleep and mood swings. It feels like intuition or something is telling me I'm pregnant. Help? Thanks for any answers!
Clearblue has never worked for me even when I really WAS pregnant. It was already doctor confirmed and I was just messing with an old one and it said negative. I don't trust them. I don't know when my period is coming because I just got off implanon almost a month ago and its out of my system, I only used it for 2 weeks. I need more info than this please.
