Open Question: Does having abnormal paps contribute to pregnancy complications?
(Wed, 07 Jan 2009 04:20:39 GMT)
Okay from the time I was 21 I've had abnormal paps and had several colposcopies. Just before my husband and I got married (I was 26) my paps were normal and so we decided to to try to have a baby. Our daughter was born in April 3 months premature due to complications from Pre-eclampsia. Well now my paps are coming back abnormal again and I don't understand why.
When I was 21 I was raped and contacted Chlamydia and Gonherrea. I was given the meds, treated and retested, everything came back negative. I went through 2 boyfriends in that amount of time and used protection, and then met my husband. I've been tested for other stds every 6 months cuz of my past and all have been negative, but I still have abnormal paps---and I don't understand why.
I'm worried about if my past is going to affect pregnancy in the future...is it possible?
Note: WHen my Mom was younger, she too had abnormal paps and had the abnormal cellss on her cervix frozen off---but I don't want to have that done because I'm not sure if I want another baby or not.

(Wed, 07 Jan 2009 03:51:37 GMT)
My wife has just been told she has early stages of pneumonia, she is also 6 months pregnant so there is little medication she can take, but she has been prescribed mild antibiotics.. How serious is this at this stage of pregnancy and does anyone have any good advice please? Main symptom is a nagging cough which has caused her to gag and vomit a few times, and she has not eaten properly in a few days.
Thanks

Open Question: Is this my lucky month?
(Wed, 07 Jan 2009 00:28:11 GMT)
My husband & I have been TTC. I am on a regular 40-42 day cycle & bleed for 7 days, however, in December, I began spotting on day 28. It lasted about 4 days and then stopped, pink - brownish color. The last time we had sex was about a 6 days prior to the spotting. I was getting uncomfortable cramp-like feelings between my ovaries and my groin area. They would come and go & seem to appear when I was sitting down. The cramps only lasted about 3 days and I haven't had any since. I have now been feeling a bit more sluggish than normal, and wanting to take naps in the middle of the day accompanied by naucious headaches. I am craving liquids, and slightly irritable. My breast aren't sore, however they are slightly fuller. Could this be early signs of pregnancy?
Were the cramp like pains I felt and the spotting implantation?

Open Question: I am only 6 weeks prego and my belly is huge!?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 23:45:42 GMT)
This is my second pregnancy. My daughter is now 9 and I had her at 15. I also had an ectopic 5 months ago and am going in for an ultrasound on friday to meke sure this is in the right place. I am sure it is because my stomach is way too big for 6 weeks and i had no stomach with my ectopic! Also when I was pregnant with my daughter I didnt start showing until about 5-6 months and that is about how big my stomach is now. Is there something wrong? And I know its not gas.

Open Question: i asked this question before but i didnt get many answers:(?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 23:08:27 GMT)
Hiya everyone. my last period started on the 3rd december. So tomorrow i am 7 days late. I had sex with my partner straight after my period ended, and alot around the time of ovulation (using the 14 day rule, i did not know for sure if i was ovulating). A few days ago i had a vivid dream that i took a HPT and it was positive. I remember seeing two pink lines. Anyway i have no symptoms of pregnancy apart from before i felt like i was going to throw up (when i was in the bath). It is evening time here for those answering from different countries. Anyway, last month i was 6 days late but i was under alot of stress. And i was having cramps. But this month, seven days late and nothing. Has anyone ever been late in having pregnancy symptoms? when do they usually start? And do you think it is likely that i am pregnant or not? I do want to be pregnant, but it would be unreal if i was. It would be amazing

Open Question: Is this a reasonable request?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 22:17:07 GMT)
I really need some advice here please. My boyfriend and I have decided to emigrate. It will be 6 months before we leave, and there is a lot of things to sort out. This is my problem: I am considering putting a sex ban on our love life in the meantime, as an unwanted pregnancy would be a nightmare right now. We've always been careful and used the pill AND condoms, but both have been known to fail. We all know the safest sex is no sex at all. I really don't need this added pressure (what with trying to sort everything out about moving), but I also know that it would not be fair to deprive my boyfriend of sex. Its a subject I don't want to have to discuss with him, as I know he would be devastated at having to give up sex. Sure, we can pleasure each other in various other ways, but its not the same of course. Its likely that this will cause a lot of problems between us, but the question is, do you think its fair to even suggest it? For the men reading this especially, would you agree to this, if it meant that your girlfriend would have one less thing to worry about when she has so many other things on her mind? (i.e. making the preparations for a new life?) If I was to become pregnant, it would mean that all our plans would be put on hold, or may never happen at all. Remember: a pregnancy would affect us both, so it would be his problem as well as mine. Do you think he would see it from my point of view, or am I being unreasonable? (Also, as soon as we were established in our new life abroad, our sex life could resume as normal.) Please advise!!!

Open Question: Can someone answer my questions about taking pain killers while staying overseas, being on birth control, etc?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:55:52 GMT)
I'm an American citizen, planning to visit India (my fiance's country of origin) this March, on a tourist visa, and may not return for another year or so. I've been taking painkillers (Oxycodone) for jaw pain. I would like to find another way to treat my jaw pain and discomfort prior to traveling overseas, but so far, I have not found an effective alternative. Only pain killers help. I'd like to know how someone like myself can obtain pain killers while staying in India, and or if there's a problem bringing them through customs. I'm clueless. It is my understanding that in any case, American doctors will not provide more than six months worth of the drug I'm taking (many will not prescribe it at all). If I were to get married in India, (where my fiance works and is a natural born citizen), and plan on staying there for 6 months-2 years, how can I obtain pain killers (such as oxycodone or hydrocodone for my jaw)? I'd also like to know a little more about pain killers in general. Are people at risk of having major problems as a result of stopping them all of a sudden due to pregnancy? If so, what are the risks? Do pain killers such as the one I'm taking often interact with birth control meds? If so which birth control meds and in what way?

Open Question: I'm so stressed out. Baby daddy drama...Can anyone help?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:25:29 GMT)
I have had a rocky relationship with this guy since the start. In July him and I split up and I screwed around with this other guy (mostly out of hurt). All I did was party to keep myself from seeing the bigger picture. Me and the other guy hooked up twice and wore a condom both times. Then me and my bf got back together and he busted in me many times. No condom. Now I'm pregnant. I'm 98% sure that this baby is my bf's but he isn't. He keeps bringing it up and making me feel like s**t. I'm 6 months along so I can feel her inside me but it's not a happy thing. I have a hard enough time keeping this pregnancy a posative thing because I gave a baby girl up for adoption in '06. Now I'm back to wanting to cry every time I see a baby. I never wanted to be a mother. I wasn't ready then and I'm not ready now. He always wanted a child. I can't go through another adoption I'd kill myself. Plus he want's the kid so if it is his, great. But what if it's not? The more unsure he is the more unsure I am. How can I go through labor and bonding if I'm not sure? Even with a DNA test it takes at least a week for the results to come back. So what am I supposed to do untill then? I am now starting school and I don't know if I can cope with the stress. I have one more class left before I graduate high school. The only thing that has kept me back this whole time and I've struggled with my whole life. F***ing Math. I feel like my whole world is collapsing in on me. I hate this. I just want to crawl in a hole and hide, or die... I don't feel like I'm ready for life. I just don't want to feel this way anymore. Can someone please give me some advice? Or even your opinion on this mess?

Open Question: Emotional and feel i have no help...?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 20:15:15 GMT)
Hi there
I am 13 weeks and 5 days pregnant and very emotional, my husband went to Canada on tour for 3-4 months yesterday we have only been married for just over a month, my job is very physical and as i only work 6 hours a day i am only allowed a 15 min break, i went to the Dr this morning to see if i could get some help or even someone to help me along, but i feel that what was said was completely the opposite, she may as well told me to pull myself together and stop being so emotional (i cried my eyes out) she also stated least he is not in Afghan or something but to me at the moment that is irrelevant its not where he is its the fact my rock has gone,, i spoke to my manager over the phone (have had 4 days off to re-coupe and relax hasn't worked) i told her i was worried about my job and losing it and she said there was nothing she can do about that fact, she commented on how there is another pregnant lady in my workplace who is having a hard time with her pregnancy and she still manages to go into work fair enough but that lady doesn't do anything physical she just sits around talking to the managers etc all day, whereas from the min i get in i am non stop i feel its very unfair for her to compare me to another lady am i wrong to feel low about that? i know my pregnancy does not help, my blood pressure is high i get very dizzy quickly and very exhausted, and as i am only allowed 15min break that does not even give me time to eat a sandwhich and have a warm drink. i feel i have no support from work or the Dr and i am struggling with my emotions and the pregnancy i feel a failure that i cannot even enjoy my baby at this stage because i am so low. I just don't know what to do, My mum says that i should just go back to work and throw myself into it but my state of mind is not letting me do that and to be fair with the way i am feeling i don't want to i want to relax (find that very hard to do) and nobody seems to understand that.
Can anyone help me? Give me some advice what to do
I have already spoken to my manager about needing longer for my breaks but she said as we get paid for it and the hours i do thats all i am entitled to, if i need a 5 min sit down i am allowed but not anymore time than that.

every time we have used a condom and made sure it has not split.
I was due to come on, on the 1st of January but i haven't and i'm starting to get a bit worried but because i'm irregular it's normal.
PLEASE HELP!
X
i am 6 days late so far and still no sign.
Might take a pregnancy test on Friday if it don't come by then, but i'm positive that i'm not.
but because it's so early it will give me not accurate results right?
Also that stuff is coming out, like mucus stuff you know before you come on your period it comes, but i'm not sure whats going on!..
It's emotionally dragging me down! :(

Open Question: What is your opinion?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 19:21:07 GMT)
LMP: december 13th 2008
my cycle is approx 30 days long give or take a few.
We BD-ed on:
December 25, 2008
december 27th, 2008
december 29th 2008
january 1st 2009
january 4th 2009
on december 30th I had some cramping on my right side of my VERY LOW ABDOMEN. like above my pelvic bone area.
I thought this was ovulation. It lasted about 6 hours. The next day i woke up and didn't feel anything.
I had sore breast the other day, but they are gone. I have absolutly no signs of pregnancy or AF.
i looked up an Ovulation calender online today and it said i should have ovulated on monday december 29th. i know ovulation can be a day or so off. I purposely didn't find out when i was ovulating this month b/c i didn't want to feel pressured to have sex that day. Instead we just tried to have sex often.
What are you thoughts? I feel kinda confident that we may be pregnant, but i dont want to get too excited incase it is a negative. I'm wondering if that cramping was implantation. I've never had implantation bleeding with my other pregnancys, so the lack of it this time around doesn't concern me either.
Please let me know what you think
and baby dust to all of us who are trying!

Open Question: Vaginal bleeding while pregnant?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 18:19:27 GMT)
Hi, I'm 22 years old and have a 10 month old son.
My last REAL period was on October 22nd and my husband and I have been trying for another baby. I was 100% certain I was pregnant again. I remember the symptoms, but here is the kicker.
I started having light spotting 2 weeks past my missed period and thought it may have been cervical erosion. (The spotting would start when we'd have sex.) That spotting went on for a few days and then went away. The spotting then started again a week later and that went for a week and then it stopped again and then started bleeding a few days later and it was light bleeding (which is not normal for me if I'm getting my period.) I'd wipe and the blood was watered down.
Then the bleeding stopped for a couple of weeks and then my husband and I had sex again and then I immediately started bleeding again and it still hasn't stopped. I'm having heavy bleeding with small little clots with NO cramps only a bloated feeling which makes me nervous. I normally have severe cramps with heavy bleeding to the point where I cannot walk it hurts so bad. So, this is definitely not normal for me. My basal body temperature is still high and hasn't come down. It's been going between 97.6-98.3 and my normal temperature while bleeding is between 95.6-96.2. So, this is another reason why I think I may be pregnant. My temperature stayed high with my son.
Here is the kicker. I can take any pregnancy test and it will come back negative. Took me till I was 10 weeks to get a positive with my son. I think I'm running into the same problem and we don't have insurance at the moment. So, until I know for sure I don't want to see a doctor. Does this sound like subchorionic bleeding to you? Anybody that's been through this that can help me? PLEASE!

Open Question: I'm very crampy today...........?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 14:10:36 GMT)
I'm due for my period on thursday....I never feel anything with my period until the day of and usually only a few hours before it starts to flow. My periods are also NEVER early. I have been having all the signs of pregnancy. Is being crampy and having heartburn one of them? I mean I literally feel like I am about to start but I have no brown coloration or anything. I took a pregnancy test this morning and it said negative. I have been ttc for about 6 months now and we really want to get pregnant. Could I be pregnant and it was just a false negative?

Open Question: Am I pregnant? Please help.?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:39:07 GMT)
I was on the Yasmin pill for 3 months and just before I ended for a break before starting a new pack - I was on antibiotics and had unprotected sex between 18 and 21st November.
When I went on a break, I didn't go to the doctors to get a repeat prescription and on the 12th December (midnight) had unprotected sex but didn't get the morning after pill till the 14th which would have made the use of it less effective. I then had unprotected sex on the 19th and went and got the morning after pill on the 20th but also got a repeat prescription for my pill.
I had a period the first week in December between 3rd and 6th. I have period pains now (6/01/2009) and have felt sick mostly in the mornings but the feeling of nausea throughout most of the day, especially after I've eaten. I took a pregnancy test but it came back negative however I'm unsure if I took it too early?
I've had cramps for the past 2 days, I never knew you could have a period and still be pregnant.
I calculated the dates from the dates I am positive my period was last, and both times I have unprotected sex (from this calculator thing) I was in the ovulation period.
I haven't told my boyfriend and am worried he'll freak out as much as I have.
I don't mind waiting, to do a test, it's just the thinking about it!

Open Question: What should I do, I am completely scared!?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 05:57:52 GMT)
This is going to be extremely long.
And I am sorry, but I know once I start typing I'll just put every single detail into here.
And I am crying right now, so if there are a lot of spelling errors I'm sorry.
Okay, to start my parents split when I was 9, and it's been 6 years.
My mom got full custody of me, but I have never been close to her.
My dad is like my best friend, but I barely ever get to see him.
He works off shore and when he comes into town my mom is a b**** and always tries her best to keep him away from me as much as possible.
Anyway, my mom got remarried last year, and I hate her husband.
I always have. He treats my mom okay, but when it's just me and him he is a different guy.
He always says things about my dad also.
Things that I know aren't true.
And for the last few months everytime my mom is drunk. 'which is often, and another reason we aren't close'
he comes into my room and for a while it was just him staring at me and I would get scared.
But then it got worst and he started raping me.
He told me not to tell my dad or anyone else or he would hurt my mom.
And I actually told my mom, because he didn't say her.
And she didn't believe me.
She was like 'Oh stop saying things about him just because you like your father'
And for the last few weeks I always feel sick, and my boobs hurt really bad. And I just don't feel well.
I know that those could be signs of pregnancy, but I'm begging it's not.
I'm 15, and I don't want this.
It's not fair to me at all.
My ex step-mom 'Okay my dad never really married her, but they dated for a while and her daughter calls me her sister' has offered to let me live with her more than once. And only now am I actually considering it. I know my mom could care less who I'm with, as long as it isn't my dad. But then again I would hate to put her in the middle of all of this. She is always there for me, and I wouldn't want to make her feel weird or anything.
Anyway, my question is.
What do I do?
I'm so confused and worried.
And I don't want to tell my mom or step-dad.
Because I don't know what he would do if I am pregnant.
And I know I could call protective services.
And I have got the number and everything.
But I can't seem to do it.
She's my mom no matter what and i can't seem to do it.

Open Question: How can I earn money to meet my cost of living?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 05:16:38 GMT)
I know many people don't like reading people's sob stories, but this is my last option. I've tried applying for jobs but I never recieve a call back, and when I do recieve a call back I get supremely happy only to discover the job is a scam such as a perfume company I was working at. Currently, I'm 18 years old, I'm living in an apartment with the rent and utilities coming to $720-$800 per month, I've recently gotten married (December 31st), I'm nearly 6 months pregnant with a baby girl, my husband works at UPS earning barely $400 per month, my dad pays for our rent and utilities, he paid for my car, he pays for my car insurance, my gas, and he's paid for nearly everything that I own. I feel bad about my dad paying for everything, especially since he's running out of money and he worked hard for his money with the federal government for over 30 years, and I've wanted to re-pay him for everything he has given me. But I currently do not see how I am going to be able to do that when I've had an unexpected pregnancy, I'm unemployed and have tried very hard to become employed with no success, my husband doesn't make enough to cover even half of our rent, and I'm afraid that if things don't change I'm going to lose my baby girl to social services. Even though my pregnancy was unplanned, I still want to take care of her and not put her in the system of social services because I've gone through the system twice and no matter what people say, I know that it is not a good system to live in. I want to make a better life for my baby, but with unemployment rates spikeing, and hardly any income coming in, I don't know how to do that. Please, someone help me find a way to make a better life for my baby! This is truly my last hope. I want to keep my baby very badly, and I want her to grow up and be happy while knowing and living with her biological parents which is something I never got to do, but I've run out of resources and options. Someone, please help me find a way of making income to support my daughter, husband and I. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope someone responds.
To add some further details, my husband just started working at UPS. Currently, they only let him work a total of 25 hours per week, but after he works there for 90 days they'll start letting him work over time to earn more money. We are both currently working on getting our high school diplomas as well, and because I am adopted I am covered as far as health insurance goes until I'm 21 or if I move out of Colorado I lose my health insurance. At one point, my husband and I were working at Onyx Wholesale, and after working there for a while, we were never paid the hourly wage we were told. To be 100% honest, the most money we saw from that place was 5$. My husband hates living off my dad, and he's always trying to find ways to earn more money to pay my dad back with no luck. In our apartment we live with 3 other people. 1 stays in our living room and the other 2 live in the other bedroom. The car is used for transportation for work because my husband works nights.
As far as selling items on craigslist, we've been working on doing that for $568/month) however we can't move into those apartments until our current lease is up otherwise we lose our security deposit (750$). For some people that wouldn't seem like a lot, but for us that's like a gold mine in the great depression era. Currently, I do have one possible job opportunity, however, every time that I call to see if they've processed my application so I can begin working and earning money, they say that they're either over-employed, or, as they said last time I called, I have to wait until March to begin working. Back when I was living with larger incomes, I would have said 'I can wait. I'm patient', however, with the bills piling up I don't have that kind of time. I need something to bring in enough money to pay rent at the very least.
My other issue that I have is that I don't even know if I'm going to be a good mother. I'm worried that my daughter will hate me and bicker with me just as my adoptive mother and I do. I'm worried that when my daughter and I go to the store to get some food to put on the table, that she'll pick up a doll and that I'll have to tell her that we can't afford it. One of my biggest concerns of all is that I'm worried that our daughter won't be happy. On her birthday (which my due date is May 10), all she'll get is a cheap hand made card as a gift, and on Christmas she won't even understand the meaning of giving and recieving because she might not even recieve anything. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm worried that the only things I'll be able to buy my daughter is food with my food stamps and nothing more.

Open Question: What the heck is going on with me?!?!? Period Question!?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 01:03:45 GMT)
ok.... for the past 3 weeks I have been really confused... each month when I get my period I pass a blood clot with in the first 5 hours.... and then its consistent and normal.. It's usually heavy for the first day or two then gets lighter and finally goes away. I always get it for 5-6 days... My last regular period was on Nov 24 and lasted for 5days... Now I just got my period on Jan 3... it was pretty light and kept stopping then starting again.. at times a little heavier but still pretty light for a period.. on Jan 4 at 8 in the morning I passed 3 blood clots ... 2 small ones and one larger one maybe an inch or an inch and a half... then I had light bleeding off and on for the rest of the night... So basically between those two days It was probably enough for 2 thin pads....
I have taken a pregnancy test about a 5 days or so ago and it was negative so I know I'm not pregnant...
I lost my health insurance so i can't go to the doctors yet.. I should have it back next month....
Also for the past 2 1/2 weeks my nipples have been extremely erect. Is there possibly a hormonal imbalance going on with me.... Has anyone experienced anything like this.... if so can you give me any advise?!!? I'm kind of confused! ((Serious answers only))
nope no endometriosis.... i got checked for that a year ago... and I took a test about 5 days or so ago... it was negative... I just worried because It's just been really weird and the nipples are pretty strange it's never happened to me before?!!

Open Question: If you are planning to name your baby after someone, at what point do you tell them?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 00:55:53 GMT)
1. Should you ask their permission? If so, when? Before you're even pregnant, once you've conceived, 6 months into pregnancy or after the baby's born?
2. If you are considering several names, won't they get annoyed if you change your mind? Like suppose you were planning to name the baby after your sister Lillian, and then afterwards told her you'd chosen to call her Francesca after great-aunt Franny instead? Or just decided you really thought Charlotte was a way cuter name.
3. If the person is dead, should you ask permission or gain approval from other relatives, such as their children or siblings?
4. If the name is already being used in the family by someone living, with there being two Lillians etc, will it get confusing and if so how would you solve that problem?

Open Question: Blue Cervix - An Early Sign of Pregnancy?
(Tue, 06 Jan 2009 00:02:11 GMT)
My first son was conceived by clomid last year, and he turns 1 years old January 8th! Yay! As crazy as it is, we've been TTC again ever SINCE he was born. We probably didn't really get serious about it till he was about 6 months old. My periods were I guess pretty regular, between 27-29 days. I've been so stressed out about it lately, since we've had no positive pregnancy tests these past 6 months. My cycles started to get longer, and I never got a positive OPK test. My last 2 cycles were 31, then 35 days. I purchased the Clear blue Easy Fertility Monitor and received my first high status on CD 12, then received a POSITIVE OPK test on CD 18 (Baby Danced) , and 2 days of PEAK Fertility Status on the monitor starting on CD 19 (Bany Danced) and CD 20 (Baby Danced). Today is CD 21 , I am back to high fertility status with the fertility monitor. I had lots of CM this past week, and slight cramping on my left side on the day I got the first positive OPK.
After baby dancing, I elevate my hips for at least an hour, before even moving or getting up, just to make sure all those swimmers get where they need to. I've even fallen ASLEEP all night like that!
I am on CD24 of my cycle, with ovulation on Dec 30 (CD 18). Today I went to my OBGYN for a routine exam. After all was done, we talked, and gave me a blood test for progesterone, due back in 2 days. He also said he ran a pregnancy test which he will get the results tomorrow. I was shocked since it just seemed so early. He then said my cervix was blue. He said it was an early sign of pregnancy....IS THIS TRUE?
He said a blue cervix in OBGYN terms is called "Chadwicks" something.

Open Question: Will my breasts go back to my pre-pregnancy size?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 23:40:30 GMT)
I'm 6 months pregnant and bra size has increased from 34D to 36E. Should I get rid of my old bras?
Thank you everyone ! :) I've decided to keep the old ones for later.

Resolved Question: I'm going back to uni, am i still considered a stay at home mum?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 22:59:45 GMT)
I start back at Uni in Feb (I took 6 months off when I was nearing the end of my pregnancy)
I will be resuming via corrospondence from home, the thing is - my daughter will be going in to child care 2 days per week so I can study. Will she still know me as her mother? What if I miss an important milestone e.g. crawling for the first time?
I know I will probably get a lot of answers saying 'keep her home with you' but this is just not realistic, she's very high maintenance and there's no way I could pass my course juggling her and my laptop! At the end of the day, I'm going back to uni to be able to provide a better life for her.
What do you think about my plans? Will I still be considered a 'stay at home mum' if Alissa is in child care?
The nanny idea would be ok except we are from a very small country town, no nannies around here! Plus, if my daughter was crying at home with the nanny while I was trying to work, I wouldn't be able to concerntrate and would have to look after her myself =D

Open Question: spotting? pregnant or period coming?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 22:50:30 GMT)
I had sex on the 31st of December, protected, he didn't come, but the condom came off during.
The past two days I've had brown discharge. (I was due for my period yesterday) but the past 4 months I've been 3-4 days late.
I've never had spotting before.
I also took a test and it read to take another one.
Do you think its pregnancy, or period about to come? can you get spotting 6 days after intercourse? Or could I be having a 'phantom pregnancy'?
I'm all new to spotting, so I don't know much about it so i would appreciate mature comment.
Thanks in advance.

Open Question: Does it really matter what time of day you test?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 22:42:08 GMT)
Hello all...
My husband and I have been ttc for about 6 months now. I have PCOS but have had regular periods ranging 28 to 29 days and lasting about 3 to 4 days. I was due friday or saturday so now i'm around 3 days late... I have been feeling more emotional than the usual PMS and have been having horrible indegestion and headaches... I normally have cramps about 5 days before AF but I have had only very mild ones off and on the past few days. I really felt like this might be our month so I bought a pregnancy test and took it last night around 9ish... It was negative.... so my question is... Do you really think it matters what time of day you test? Does it really need to be early morning urine?
Thank you soooo much everybody! I can't tell you how excited I feel right now...
Thank you for answering my question... I will take one tomorrow morning and I will keep you all posted!
THanks again... and baby dust to all of you who are ttc!!!!!!

Open Question: I am 6 months pregnant..?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 21:35:13 GMT)
Through-out my pregnancy so far, I have gotten bacterical vaginosis two times, a yeast infection and a UTI...I find myself competing with these infections and months later they come back sometimes..Is this normal in pregnancy? Is it because I am pregnant that I am getting so many infections? Before i got pregnant I had gotten a couple of yeast infections maybe like 2 or 3 and bacterial vaginosis within the past 3 years, the docs. have told me I am healthy and everything is good so far...should I be concern about the infections? Is it my immune system or the pregnancy?

Resolved Question: Has anyone gone through this? Pregnant with 2yr. old?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 20:44:01 GMT)
My son will be 3 in March. I am almost 6 months pregnant. He has been acting like such a baby lately. Throwing crying fits, wanting me to pick him up, wanting to sleep right up under me. Dont get me wrong i think it is really cute, Im just worried about this adjustment that he is gonna have to make once the baby is here. Also, is it weird for me the think we are just this nsync(spelled wrong) but when i wake up in the middle of the night i can lay completely still and after a short time he will wake up too. In the beginning of my pregnancy if i got out of bed in the morning he woke up,lol. He just wants to be with me all the time. He wants to eat when i eat and i swear sometimes its like he has my cravings. Is that possible.

Open Question: How do I pick my sister or my husband?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 20:35:25 GMT)
I will try to make this as short as possible.
To start, my husband is very.....
Outspoken, he always tells me just what he thinks about everything.
And I have always known that he is against teen pregnancy,
or even teen sex.
he thinks you should wait til you are old enough to handle it.
And I mean I agree with him.
But my little sister, who just turned 16;
Told us about a month ago that she is expecting.
My husband is extremely upset that she did this.
And he told me he doesn't want her at our house,
and setting an example for our daughter.
Now my daughter is only 6, so I don't think she will even understand what is going on.
Anyway, but my sister called me crying yesterday.
And she told me that all my parents do is yell at her and they won't comfort her or anything, and I know she's scared.
She begged me to let her come live with me,
but I know my husband will say no.
So now i am stuck picking between,
making sure my best friend/sister & her child are okay,
or making sure my husband isn't upset toward me.
I am really confused, I know I'm supposed to side with my husband,
but I have always been extremely close to my sister.
And I don't want to turn on her for making a mistake.
I am 13 years older than her.
But where I am from is a small town. and she was really my only friend.
There was a few other girls, but not many.
so yes I am a lot older than her, but she is one of my best friends.

Open Question: Pregnancy dates seem wrong to me? (same question explained better. please answer)?
(Mon, 05 Jan 2009 20:06:10 GMT)
*last period was on July 22nd and ended only July 25th
*date I ejaculated inside of her (our guessed conceived date) July 30th
*Months Pregnant by doctors are 6 months. (24 weeks)
*their supposed conceived date is August 5th.
Problem here is that we've only been together for 6 months on July 1st.
Now its july 5th and that would mean that we got pregant on July 5th a date on which we did not even have sex yet.
can somebody please explain how its possible for our baby to be 6 months while we didn't even have sex yet 6 months ago and the supposed conceived date is august 5th.
ADDED DETAIL: she has another boyfriend before me but hadn't had sex with him since march, and the reason we didn't have sex sooner was because she had a period while we first started dating. And it was a for sure period, because she was in a hell of a lot of pain and it lasted 5 days with a very heavy flow.
