Open Question: Should I change Doctors? My doctor doesnt seem to know about pregnancies?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 18:49:00 GMT)
My first pregnancy was a blighted ovum at 12 weeks/ followed by d&c.
I got pregnant 7 months after that with my baby boy Noah whom I just lost at 23 weeks on Jan. 22nd/2010 due to PPROM(premature rupture of membranes). I had bleeding the whole pregnancy with Noah but everytime I went to the doctor he would be moving and doctor said he was fine and that my uterus was closed but my placenta was a little low and I had a small hematoma. He told me to go rest at home. Then at 20 weeks I had a huge gush of blood I went to the ER urgently and again my baby had a great hb and was fine..so again doctor told me to just rest and take it easy each day. At 22 weeks I started this pains in my lower abdomen(I thought it was round ligament pain, I even called my dr. and he said maybe its round ligament pain and to rest) so you know everyone trusts their doctor so I did and rested. The pain got worse by the next day so I rushed to the ER and I was actually having contractions!!!! My doctor told me to stay in the hospital so they could monitor my contractions and try to stop them , well they couldnt stop them and the next day my water broke and delivered my sweet angel. Im really devastated and think it was negligence or maybe they just couldnt stop labor from happening. My baby died during delivery. I went to the same doctor and he said I could TTC after 3 cycles..Isnt that too soon? What should I do?
Thankss!!Experiences:(
I forgot to add that since week 20 till the day I gave birth at 23 weeks I bled a lot.. I really dont know if it was due to the hematoma.

Open Question: Can you ovulation then not have a period?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 18:21:43 GMT)
am currently 22 weeks pregnant with triplets girl-girl-boy. But my sister in law is trying to have kids and she is on clomid like I was when I conceived. She said they saw two eggs release and 14 days after ovulation she did not get her period but the blood hcg was negative. The doctor did say it could be to early too. I told her it could be too early because you always get your period 14-16 days after ovulation. the doctor told her she did ovulate because her progesterone went up. I don't know what to tell her. and how is eevery onespregnancies? I am so tired all the time....

Open Question: 38 weeks pregnant 2 cm dilated...?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 14:49:37 GMT)
so until this morning i thought my due date was march 19th, i asked my doctor just out of curiosity and she tells me its not its the 22nd..no big deal only 3 days more, but yet again its 3 days mmorreee! anywho when i was checked this morning i was told im 2 cms dilated, they didnt say anything about being effaced...which i shouldve asked but i just didnt think about it at the time. i lost my mucus plug over 3 weeks ago and there was the bloody show. i was in labor and delivery for 3 hours that night with some pain & the doctor gave me a shot to stop contractions. i feel so discouraged like being 2 cms is great but it seems like everything was happening so fast and now hes just never going to come. i guess my question is if this has happened to anyone and if so what did you do, and how can i help the progress. i was thinking about taking a nice long walk since its actually gorgeous out for once..but im just not too sure if it will actually help

When i didn't start my pack that first week I had mild spotting 1 day and then another day. I'm freaking out bcuz I've never missed a period. Last time I had sex was September 5 2009. And I was on the pill and used protection. I haven't missed a period since until now. I also did freak out bcuz my period came 1 day late in early November and I took a urine and blood test and they cAme back negative. So I dont think I'm pregnant or other wise I would be showing. I'd be like 22 or 24 weeks. But I'm freaking out. Could I still be preg or is this normal not to get my period after not starting my pack???

(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:11:11 GMT)
So I'm 22 weeks pregnant with my first baby,well me and the babys daddy are not together we broke up about a week after we found out now he says he didn't break up with me because of the baby he really hasn't given a reason to why he did it but see he wants to be in mine and our babys life he tells me he loves me all the time and he is excited about the baby and we hang out alot but he does not want to go out with me and when I say well I think we should just stop talking for awhile so I can have time to think and stop crying my eyes out everynight because I want him back but when I bring that up he gets mad and says I'm mean and that he doesn't wanna loose me and the baby he says maybe one day we will get back together just not now.I'm so in love with him and all I think about is him and our baby girl he is so amazing and deserves better then me but I don't wanna loose him forever,so pretty much I'm asking how do I deal with this situation...

Open Question: I've been feeling nauseous for about 2 weeks now please help!?
(Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:03:59 GMT)
I have been feeling nauseous for about 2 weeks now. The first week that I was feeling like this I had no appetite i would just look or think about food and i would feel sick. Even with the foods i normally enjoy. Now I do have a more normal appetite back but i am still nauseous practically all the time. I get waves of nausea so bad i really think i am about to throw up finally but never do. I am getting a little dizzy after some of these spells.
I'm getting really annoyed with this, its affecting my life. I can be in a lecture and get a really bad wave of it and have to fight to control it.
I am 22 and in university. Don't personally think i am stressed since i've been making a real effort to do more fun things as to not get stressed. There is NO possible chance i am pregnant.
Please help and give me some advice what it could be and what i should do. I try to avoid going to the doctors.
Thanks
:)

Open Question: preeclampsia I was told?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:36:54 GMT)
I was told that preeclampsia is swelling in the hands and face by a nurse.
Im 22 weeks pregnant with high bp. and the right side of my face (only so far no left side yet) has swelled up, eyes get puffy and everything. Even my nose gets stopped up but ONLY when my face swells. Which was weird to me. blurry vision too. But my question is can you be diagnosed with preeclampsia while only one side of your face swells up?
the nurse i talk to on the phone said no, it wasnt a sign...it was sinus infection probably. Mind you she didnt listen to me when I told her it started 2 weeks ago, when my bp started getting high.
she said my blood pressure wasnt high at all
my heart doctor said my bp with my heart conditon and being pregnant should be 140/75
and my bp is 166/57 p.94 ( the nurse i was on the phone with said, its not high at all)
Oh and I havent seen my OB/GYN yet, I was just talking to a nurse, Ive never met
She told me it was pretty normal, it wasnt really high bp, i thought wrong

Open Question: Is this implantation bleeding?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:10:39 GMT)
Ok so I had a D&C on Jan. 15th at 10.5 weeks pregnant. I got my blood levels check on Feb 19th and had 356 hcg and again on the 22nd and the nurse just said it was decreasing. I am pretty sure I ovulated on Feb 27th. On Friday, March 5th( 6dpo) I have had some brown sometime red spotting, well a lil more than spotting around 5 o'clock everyday since.... like yesterday I had one gush of blood and it quit.. it does not last very long. Do you think this could be implantation bleeding, or just my body being out of whack? I am expecting my period March 12th or 13th( 8 weeks after d&c) and 14 days after believed ovulation.

Open Question: Questions after Plan B One Step? Answers Please?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 21:49:21 GMT)
My girlfriend and I are very anxious waiting for her next period because of the following story.
On February 17th, I was having protected sex with my girlfriend and my condom broke during orgasm and I ejaculated inside her before I realized it broke. That happened at about 6:10 PM and we went to the drugstore and she took the Plan B One Step at about 6:45 PM.
On February 22nd, she started bleeding in a way that was similar to her period(as the information inside the box said may happen) and it subsided on the 27th.
Her last period started on February 8th, and ended on either the 15th or 16th of Feb. Her periods in January and February were early by a few days each time ( January was around 2-4 days early, February was almost a week early). She said through her best estimation, that she can expect her period anywhere from 3/9 - 3/11, based on how irregular she has been for the past two months. We have also both heard and read that it can make your period up to 10 days lat.
Based on everything stated, do you think Plan B successfully worked and she is NOT pregnant? And when can she expect her period?

Open Question: do you think i will get pregnant?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:49:08 GMT)
I had my IUD taken out on february 5th...I started my period on the 22 of february...my husband and i had sex a couple times after my period stopped...i really hope we get pregnant...it will be child #3...all i really want to know is if anyone had trouble conceiving after getting an IUD out...and do you think that i will become pregnant...we had sex like on and off the first two weeks after my period stopped...do you think we had sex close enough to the "normal" ovulation period....the only reason i'm worried about it is because my husband is gone a lot for his job so we don't have a lot of time to make a baby and we hope we got me pregnant this time...just wanting to know your general opinion

Open Question: why does my face hurt?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 19:55:52 GMT)
Im 22 weeks pregnant and I have high blood pressure, I was put on meds for it. But Ive noticed sometimes (not always) that my face hurts mainly on my right side around my cheek bone area (feels like under and behind the bone. I was wondering if its my blood pressure doing this? And Its not like pain like ouch I needs meds because its hurting that bad, it does hurt but its more irriating more than anything. and when i look down or bend down to get something...It hurts pretty bad, like a lot of blood rushing to your face all at once. :(
I took my bp and it was only 149/54 p . 78
that is acually lower than norm. my doctor said about 140/75 p80 should be good bp for me since I have a heart condition. And Ive already seen my heart doctor.... my heart is fine so its NOT my heart. And he is the one that prescribed the pills to me.
Is anyone out there pregnant with high bp and experiencing face pain (mainly on one side, both sides too)? Just need to know if its just my body telling me I have high bp or maybe something else I should see my reg. doctor for. its been like this for about 2 weeks now!

Open Question: Braxton Hicks Contractions......Only 18 Weeks Pregnant?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 19:28:22 GMT)
Hey, so I just posted earlier about some tightening I was having in my pelvic area below my belly button. Some girls posted back that it sounded like Braxton Hicks Contractions.... im wondering if that's possible considering I'm only about 18 weeks pregnant... I thought it was maybe the baby flipping or moving etc.. since I haven't been able to feel any movements yet... So anyway, Braxton Hicks, they feel like tightening in my lower abdomen? When I posted earlier, I had mentioned it didn't have any pain, just a pressure/tight feeling, then like it released. I thought it was gas, but (TMI) I TRIED to pass gas, but nothing happened! LOL. So is it more likely the baby was moving or braxton hicks? I see my doc on the 22nd, and I bother her for EVERYTHING and Id rather just have some of your opinions since ya'll have been through it :) Thanks girls!!

Open Question: Missed period for two months... what could be the problem?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 19:14:28 GMT)
I've been trying to concieve for 8 months and have no luck. My period went from 30 days to like 40-43 in September. My last period was December 22nd and I have sex all throughout January, and February but hpts are saying negative. I went to a midwife appointment a week ago and she took a pregnancy test there that also read negative. She pressed down on my uterus with her hand and told me that I didn't feel pregnant either. I'm frustrated, I just wish my period would start already. All she told me was if I didn't get it this month than to make another appointment. What could be the problem? Does this mean that I'm most likely not ovulating since my period hasn't arrived? I asked her and she told me I could still be ovulating and to go back in two weeks to take another pregnancy tests in case I still got pregnant but it was too early to show. Seriously why does it have to be so hard sometimes to get pregnant? I feel like just giving up altogether. Anyone ever experience something like this?

Open Question: Is there anyone who is pregnant and alone?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 18:15:14 GMT)
Im pregnant with my second child and it is from someone else. Ive been with him for about a year but in the last couple months hes changed right before my eyes. He used to be a strong working man while he was working than he got laid off and became kind of lazy and got skinnier. He still lives with his parents and i dont think hes ever not going to and hes 22. I loved him so much at least i thought i did but i couldnt of is i started feeling this way right? Im starting to point out his flaws alot more and feeling like i just dont want to be in this relationship anymore and im 20 weeks pregnant. We were going to get married and everything seemed so great and hes still good to me but he just acts like a teenager. Anyone been through this? Feeling like they made a mistake about the guy?

Open Question: COULD THIS BE A CHEMICAL PREGNANCY?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 16:30:24 GMT)
I'M 6 DAYS LATE, & 3 HOME PREGNANCY TESTS SHOWED POSITIVE.

MY FRIEND SAYS ANYTHING COULD'VE MESSED UP & THERE STILL A CHANCE I COULD
BE PREGNANT. SHE SAID SHE WENT THROUGH 3 BLOOD TESTS & ONLY ONE THAT CAME
OUT POSITIVE WAS THE LAST ONE WHICH WAS WHEN SHE WAS 6 WEEKS PREGNANT.

(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:18:18 GMT)

Open Question: What breed(s) of dog are these dogs?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 06:04:47 GMT)
Here are links to pictures of them. The first (male, almost 2 years old, about 15 lbs, but is very skinny and should weigh about 22 lbs):
http://i481.photobucket.com/albums/rr171/archies_angel/Benji.jpg
http://i481.photobucket.com/albums/rr171/archies_angel/Benji3.jpg
http://i481.photobucket.com/albums/rr171/archies_angel/Benji3duo.jpg
http://i481.photobucket.com/albums/rr171/archies_angel/Benji2.jpg
The second (female, almost 3 years old, about 23 lbs):
http://i481.photobucket.com/albums/rr171/archies_angel/Caddy.jpg
I ask this because I just rescued these two dogs from the same home about 4 weeks ago.
The grey one is the female and I think she might be pregnant. The old owners never mentioned anything, but neither one of them are fixed (I planned to have it done immediately, but am now glad the vet didn't have an appointment for two months) and she is really firm, gaining weight, is hogging all the food and acting like she is starving at all times, and she has become super affectionate over the last couple weeks. She is not a cuddly dog at all, but has been super friendly and begging for attention lately... although I don't feel any swollen nipples (but I do know that some dogs never look pregnant when they are).
Also, if she is pregnant, what do you think their puppies will look like (just out of curiosity)?
I will add later what I think their breeds are, but for now I want to know everyone else's opinions.
BTW, the date on my camera is wrong and I didn't realize it until after I took those pictures... those pictures were taken about two weeks ago.
I have thought the whole time that the male, Benji was a border terrier mix and the girl, Caddy, was an Australian Cattle Dog mix.
It is nice to see everyone's opinions and I can kind of see the Rat Terrier possibly in Caddy.
I have thought about Brussels Griffon with Benji, but if he is mixed with Brussels Griffon, he has got to be mostly Border Terrier.
I plan to have them DNA Breed Tested at some point, but it is fun to guess until then.

Resolved Question: I am afraid my stepdaughter will reveal I had sex with someone other than my husband. Please help me?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 03:25:14 GMT)
Me and my husband have been having marital problems since our wedding back in November. We were deeply in love at first and we formed a family with me and his daughter from a past relationship (he married the mother when he was 18 and she passed away a year later) and his younger brother who lives with us. He bought us a nice riverside house but things started to go downhill. First off, I got pregnant and he insisted I abort because it was not time for us to have anymore children. I did so and then he stopped having sex with me for the most part because of it. We didn't even have sex for my 20th birthday last Sunday.
For the last two months, we argued constantly as he neglected me and spent all his time at work (he runs a garage business). We rarely sleep together anymore as he sleeps on the couch and yesterday morning I surprise joined him in the shower and he got pissed for it. After he left, I cried and one his younger brothers friends came over, named "Mark". Me and Mark got to talking and Mark made me feel better and he kissed me and I kissed back. I don't know, I just lost control and me and Mark when upstairs and had sex in our bedroom. We agreed it was a one night thing but today Mark came back over and we had sex again on the couch this time. Right after I was still naked and Mark was shirtless but had boxers on when my husbands daughter came downstairs and seen. I claimed we were just changed clothes but now I am in a huge panic! I am afraid his daughter being a little kid (shes 6) will mention it to my husband. My husband will be furious and its likely to going to end in divorce.
My husband came in two hours ago and went to bed and my heart was racing the whole time that "Sarah" was going to speak up. Me and Mark have swore off each other but I am racing for a panic attack. I feel I should confess because he might find out anyhow. But I do love my husband. I know he will be furious and my brother in law (hes 17) will never forgive me for having sex with his close buddie (who is 16).
My husband turns 22 next week and I know this may ruin his birthday for him. Is it a good idea to bribe my stepdaughter into not telling? Is there anyone to keep this child quiet for the sake of my marriage?
I wouldnt have done this at all have i known that my stepdaugther was upstairs in bed.

Open Question: I posted earlier.. Just would like more insight.. HELP!!?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 01:54:50 GMT)
So here is my story. I am 22. I have been on birth control for over a year now with no problems. My period has come and gone every month like clockwork. My last period started on Jan 31. I was suppose to have my period last week but all i did was spot and cramped for maybe an hour. I got off my birth control completely thinking that my period would come and it has not. I did take a pregnancy test this morning a week after my missed period and it came out negative. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety issues but they were much worse in January and my period still came. I have been working on it and I have calmed down a lot!!! I do not feel stressed or anything! I do feel bloated sometimes, and i do feel dizzy. My boobs are still the same and i no nausea! If anyone has any insight please let me know!
Thanks!!!!
Oh yea.. I did confront my mother about this. and she told me when she was pregnant for me, she had to get a blood test done to find out she was pregnant. she got false negatives..

Open Question: 7 1/2 weeks pregnant...questions?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 01:27:44 GMT)
I'm 22 years old and my boyfriend and I were very careful but I ended up getting pregnant. I am keeping the baby and I think I'm about 7.5 weeks along. This is kind of gross, but last week I went to the bathroom and there was a little bit of a brownish discharge, but it was only once and only when I wiped. I have been having some dull cramping on and off since I found out I was pregnant, but nothing severe and it's not too often. Is this normal? I am really freaked out about having a miscarriage and I worry about it all the time, even though I know I shouldn't.
I have my first prenatal appointment on Friday. I'm also wondering what I can expect at this appointment? Will they do an ultrasound, or would I even be able to see anything this early on?
Whew! Thanks for taking the time to read this, any help or advice is much appreciated :)

I'm 27 years old and have never missed a period. I recently lost 22 pounds (I went from 148 to 126 in a few weeks). I began to diet in January of this year. I had a pap last year and everything was normal. My last period was January 12th and have not got it since. I have only missed when I got pregnant with my kids and have always been regular. I have the copper IUD and have had it since 2007. I have never had a problem with it. I feel like I'm going to get my period and like I have PMS symptoms. I just want to know if this is normal, or if anyone has ever gone through this. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. I have a doctors appointment Wed. but I just want my period believe it or not! Someone answer Please. I cant take the PMS symptoms they are driving me crazy...

Open Question: Pregnant maybe or just no luck?
(Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:41:48 GMT)
My period was due the 02/22 but it showed up on 02/27 for 3 dys when normally it lasts 5 dys. From the 02/17-02/22 I had light spotting but when it finally came it was just a medium/not normal flow. I've taken 2hpts & 1 pt at the doctors office and I'm going for a blood test this week, I'm just wondering what are the chances of my blood test being positive? The only symptoms I've had is fatigue, headaches, dizziness & a sh*t load of afternoon & night sickness to the point where I cant sleep at night or even stay at work. My fiance and I have been trying for abt 1yr & a half with no succes which makes me think I am infertile what am I to think or do besides WAIT on results from the doctor???

Open Question: I am not sure If I am pregnant!?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 22:45:27 GMT)
So here is my story. I am 22. I have been on birth control for over a year now with no problems. My period has come and gone every month like clockwork. My last period started on Jan 31. I was suppose to have my period last week but all i did was spot and cramped for maybe an hour. I got off my birth control completely thinking that my period would come and it has not. I did take a pregnancy test this morning a week after my missed period and it came out negative. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety issues but they were much worse in January and my period still came. I have been working on it and I have calmed down a lot!!! I do not feel stressed or anything! I do feel bloated sometimes, and i do feel dizzy. My boobs are still the same and i no nausea! If anyone has any insight please let me know!
Thanks!!!!

Open Question: What do you all think? I'm so confused!?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 22:38:17 GMT)
I have posted this a few times, but perhaps this will explain things better. I am so freakin confused!
My LMP was January 12. I went for an ultrasound on March 4th. According to that fact, I should have been 7w2d on the day of the u/s (or 7w6d today) and my EDD would be October 19th.
The ultrasound tech only saw a sac. That was it. She said I was only measuring 5½ weeks, so it was too early to see anything!
Now the part that is SO confusing is that my girlfriend just announced she was pregnant at a party on Saturday. She's due on October 22nd! She went for an u/s THE SAME DAY as I did and saw a heartbeat, a baby, and got a photo! (We didn't say a word as I didn't want to ruin her thunder, plus DH & I are planning to wait until 12 weeks to share!)
Do you see why I'm so confused!? This is why the u/s tech thinks I miscalculated my dates or perhaps ovulated later. I've been scheduled for another one this Thursday.
I'm so worried. Any advice?
Armywife...I have NO IDEA! She told me that 5½ weeks is too early to see anything other than a sac and I took her for face value. I have another scheduled for this Thursday, so hopefully I'll have some good news!

Open Question: do you think my dad is rushing it with his young fiance?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:05:12 GMT)
my dad is in his early 50's and has been going with a 22 year old girl. shes asian american, very nice and very cute. he's only been dating her for 6 months and not to mention that she is 4 months pregnant with his baby! they are newly engaged as well. since she's came into the picture, he's ignored his health as well as his other kids, well some of them! back in november, he passed a kidney stone, it was a fairly large stone to pass & they told him he was lucky that he could pass one that big. before christmas, they found out that she was pregnant, then two weeks ago, they got engaged and booked a trip to Mexico to celebrate. they left early on saturday morning, even though they almost didnt go because my dad had a kidney stone attack on friday afternoon...and ended up passing another stone. they had to be at the airport at 6am and he passed it at 4am. i know this because i was one of the two people that went to the airport to see them off. we were talking because they had an hour to blow before they boarded, so he was telling us about the stone. he said he stayed up drinking liquids and kept peeing and finally around 4am he passed it. He said he didn’t expect to be standing over the pot at 4 in the morning passing a kidney stone, but he would try and sleep on the plane. does it sound like he's rushing everything? it seems like he could care less that he's had 2 kidney stone in less than 6 months. i know its just peeing out a hard pebble and intense pain, but couldn't the trip have been delayed? what did he probably do with the stone?

Resolved Question: Any ladies due in November 2010 or matter fact any month in 2010?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:02:26 GMT)
I am about 5 weeks pregnant and very excited...I will not get my ultrasound until 3/22/10. What have you ladies been doing since you receive the big news? Have you told anyone besides your significant other? I haven't told anyone besides my husband, I wanted to wait until first trimester is over and I think I can probably get away with it since I dont have any pregnancy symptoms at all. Are you guys excited and nervous about the first ultrasound? When do you go in for your first ultrasound? Feel free to discuss what's been going on and how your life has changed within these past few weeks.

Resolved Question: Questions about miscarriage?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 08:21:07 GMT)
I have been on birth control for about 6 months now and I had become suspicious that I may have been pregnant because I had missed my last period. I took a pregnancy test a week ago and it was positive. Judging from the time I had my last period, I would have been around 7 weeks pregnant at that time. Today I began to bleed, so I was thinking it may have been a false positive on the pregnancy test, but the blood is very very dark, almost brown and very clotted. Also, I have been having really bad pains the last couple days and I rarely get cramps. It is not like any period I have ever had. If it matters I am 22, healthy, and have been taking Loestrin 24. Some research on the internet has led me to think it might have been a miscarriage. I am calling my doctor tomorrow, because this just doesn't seem normal. Any advice would be appreciated. I was not trying to become pregnant, this is just making me worry now that I many have problems when I do want to.

Open Question: i think i'm pregnant....?
(Mon, 08 Mar 2010 01:13:01 GMT)
well, in dec of 2009 i had my period on the 22nd(normal). in january my period didnt come. it finally came on feb 7th. and i cramped really bad, ihave never cramped this bad in my whole life. but my period was really light and nly had it for about 4 days. it was more like spotting. since then i have had horrible lower back pain and pelvic pain. i have scoliosis so usually my whole spine hurts and is stiff. but my lower back has been almost unbarrable. my stomach feels bloated but im always hungary. i have been a very pickey eater since i was a child. like eating at mcdonalds i only have ever eaten nuggete but for the last month or so i have been craving mcdonalds hamburgers and mcchickens, which i usually cant stand and have never even tasted. the foods i used to eat are prett much out the window. i used to love the red doritoes but now the smell of them makes me sick. for about two weeks my boobs have been really sore. sometimes i cant even wear a bra, i cnt touch them, they hurt when i walk, reach above my head, or bend over front words. and today i was helping my dad paint his kitchen and they started cramping all on their own and i had to go sit down and stop working for like 20 mins. they are tender all over. i have been cramping down where my ovaries are but its not a period cramp its more of a pain than a cramp. like for the last week i cant use the bathroom right. im usually regular with that.(sorry i know its gross but its a detail) first its comming and its comming fast and frequent, for like 4 days. then for 2 days i couldnt go at all. andi have been really really gassey, i cant stop burping and letting gas no matter where i go or what i do. and for the past two days my stomach back and chest are really warm, like i have a temp, but my head feels fine. i have been really tired and cant get enough energy to even clean the house like i usually do. and it seems all i do is eat and sleep anymore. im always hungary.. i cant get enough to eat or i cant get enogh sleep. .i havent had sickness or anything but i was supposed to start my period today and i havent yet which i usually start in the morning. i havent tested yet but i just wanted to know if these are really signs or if its just me.

Open Question: WHAT WOULD U DO IF IT WAS YOU?
(Sun, 07 Mar 2010 23:27:51 GMT)
ok here is the story:
I was in a committed relationship with a man for 4 years we have one child together he is almost 1. WE completely broke up in august of last year. In november i started dating a new man we dated until february and then broke up. Around the time we broke up me and my childs father started to try and reconcile our relationship. I JUST found out about a week ago that i am pregnant with the man i was dating's baby i am almost 11 weeks along now. I do have serious feelings for the man but i feel like my heart is with my sons father. I told the man that i was pregnant he says he still loves me and he will work it out so me n my son can come live down where he lives (he recently moved to texas) . my sons father told me that he would want nothing to do with me if i kept this mans baby. I am 22 and a college student. i was not ready for another baby and i am not sure if i can financially support two children right now. im considering abortion but i am not sure if i am strong enough to go through with it. what would you do????? thanks
ps im in a very unstable living situation as it is and i doubt i could financially support another child i dont even think i want another child at this point in my life. i made a mistake, and if my firsts sons father wont support me i cant say for sure the father of this baby will step up all my dreams of providing a good life for the living breathing son i already have with going to college will be over i already have one son i need to think about most of u people r older ing ood stable positions u have to put yourself in my shoes
