Open Question: 36 weeks...nesting last 2 days...just don't feel right..any thoughts?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 02:40:53 GMT)
I am 36 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby. I had my first at 40 weeks 5 days and my second at 37 weeks 6 days.
I can't remember how I felt with either of my babies at this point but I would just like YOUR experiences. I have been nesting BAD (lol) for the last 2 days and I feel like I am getting sick. I just don't feel right...almost fuzzy and blah (like I drank WAAAAAAAAAAAY to much caffiene or something) my tummy also hurts to touch in some spots. I really just think I am stretched to my limit and my skin is sore. (If that makes sense) I have no real desire to eat either....not in the last couple of days (I DO EAT THOUGH) I just am NOT hungry. But I think it's the "fuzzy" not quite right feeling that is bothering me the most. I don't like how I feel at all.
How was everyone feeling about this time or before they went into labor? Did you experience this?THANKS! :)
I AM DUE APRIL 9th TOO!!!! :) (so technically I am 35 weeks 6 days...lol) :) I swear I have organized this entire house...sterilized everything in site, washed every piece of laundry in the house, put together the bassinett....ETC!!! I can't stop! LOL!

Open Question: 4 1/2 weeks after birth could I be pregnant!?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:50:13 GMT)
Alright, So I had my first son on Feb 6th and me and my husband didn't follow the six week rule and decided to have sex last night. We got caught up in the moment and he didn't pull out. Is it possible for me to be pregnant? I have a doctors appointment scheduled to have an IUD put in place in two weeks, would a pregnancy be able to show by then should I reschedule my appointment?
Please offer as much advice and facts that you know on the matter.
What are my chance of being pregnant is it possible?
I am breastfeeding but only once or twice a day I'm supplementing since I've had problems with my milk

Open Question: pregnant or just freaking out?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:39:11 GMT)
im 20.
im not really that responsible with my birth control...dumb i know.
at about two weeks into my birth control pack..i started spotting, the first day it was reallly dark, then the next day it was brown, then the next it was regular blood (just a little) then the same day turned back to brown then stopped...i think this could be implantation bleeding? but like i said im not that responsible with my birth control so it could be breakthrough bleeding but this has never happened before ive been on this bc since nov of 08 and im always an idiot about taking the pill.
the night before i started spotting i had a dream i was pregnant (started spotting when i woke up)
oooh and i started spotting 6 days after i had sex....i dont remember when the time was before that but probably not that long like a week?
yesterday i was in rehersal (im a trumpet player) all of a sudden i got realllly hot i was sweating like crazy then i started getting dizzy and thought i was going to faint or throw up and had to sit down...then when i got home i still felt icky and dizzy but i was freeeeezing cold i couldnt warm up to save my life this lasted for at least an hour or two then i was fine
i woke up this morning not feeling to hot.
my bf was playing with my nipples (sorry tmi) and they are really tender not my boob just the nipple..weird huh
my urine was super dark yesterday and i didnt look today :/
i have cramps like im going to start my period so maybe im just being stupid but i dont know im kind of freaking out and its too early to take a test im supposed to start between friday and sunday and my back hurts like behind where my ovaries are
so after i spotted i kept taking my birthcontrol so last monday i started the white pills now its thursday and i spotted again....when i get my period....i get my period!! it was just a spot of brown grossness last night and another today...i dont think this is my period but would i be bleeding if i was preggers?
what do you think??
are there other signs i should be looking out for?
how did you know you were pregnant before your missed period
one more thing...i have reallly high anxiety not too sure if this has anything to do with it have you ever experienced this?
too early to take a pregnancy test

Open Question: Is there anything I can do to help me breath better?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:36:55 GMT)
I will be 6 months pregnant saturday. For the past 2 weeks or so it has been so hard to breath. I don't have any kind of cold or anything like that. I just can't take any deep breaths which makes me start to panic, because I feel like I a suffocating. Has this happened to anyone else, and is there anything I can do to make it any better. Thanks

Open Question: I want to hear from those who have had a c-section.?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:19:39 GMT)
I had a c-section January 31st, almost 6 weeks ago. Before getting pregnant I weighed 110 pounds, and I'm 5'4" and 32 years old. When I had the c-section I was 177 pounds. During the first week after the baby being born, I lost almost 30 pounds. But that was basically water and the baby.
The doctor told me that it would take 6 weeks for my uterus to go back to normal size. But my belly still looks like I'm about 4 months pregnant. I'm curious to hear from those who have had c-sections. Please tell me about your weight loss and how long it took. Also I want to know if I will always have this belly? Before getting pregnant I always had a flat tummy.
Thanks in advance.
My Doctor told me that the passing gas thing was only important because that way they know you are ok to go home from the hospital and that your intestines are working proper. I was able to pass gas on the second day after the c-section.
I guess I'm just a bit depressed and worried, because none of my pre-pregnancy clothes fit. I'm still wearing maternity pants and sweat pants. I realize I just had a baby, but the weather is getting nice and I'm tired of wearing maternity clothes.

Open Question: Do you think I'm pregnant?
(Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:12:34 GMT)
So here is the deal I was missing aunt flo for about 6 days then I started some white discharging, well still with the white discharging I started a very light flow my mother told me that when she was pregnant with my youngest sister she had a period, well I have heard that you can’t be pregnant if you have had a period so I guess she just mistaken it for implantation bleeding. I have been bleeding lightly for 3 days and when I wake up in the morning there is nothing and sometimes during the day it comes and goes, I was supposed to start my period on March 1st well I started bleeding on the 7th. I have had some symptoms very much more today I have been very dizzy all day and having headaches also feeling nauseated well I haven’t gotten sick since March 5th and I got sick two times then, I checked a pregnancy site and I had all of the signs I took a HPT on March 9th and it was negative. My periods have never been this light maybe irregular but I was on birth control to regulate them and they have been fine since I haven’t been on birth control for like 3 years and I have never missed my period for more than 2 days. It’s been 3 weeks since me and my boyfriend had sex. We didn’t use protection he pulled out ( I know this is not a form of contraceptive) I had a depo shot in November 09 that’s the only time and I know that’s out of my system by now.
From what I have described does this sound like a period?
Do you think I’m pregnant?
Did I do an HPT too early?
Please help any advice, I can’t go to the DR. yet because I don’t have insurance so I have to pay and if this continues I will ask my boyfriend for the money to go.

Open Question: What could be happening?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 23:36:14 GMT)
So I was supposed to get my period 7 days ago but it never showed. I thought I was pregnant before this but I took 6 pregnancy tests and they all came out negative. Yesterday I got a blood test taken and it also came out negative. I am not bloated and I have no signs of a pending period thus far (I am a week late remember). Well I now have a pain in my abdomen that I have never felt before (It is not like menstrual cramps in anyway). When I push in on my lower abdomen the right side is very hard whereas the left side isn't. I know that it isn't my intestines as I have been having loose bowel movements for the past two weeks (TMI sorry) and more frequently than normal. I have also been urinating more often too. I also know that I do not have a bladder infection, UTI, or yeast infection. I have also been having clear mucus for the past two and a half weeks. I also had some spotting and some light pink bloody mucus two days before my period was supposed to start but then it went away. I don't know what is wrong! Has anyone had this happen before or know what this could be?
Additional Info-
Husband and I TTC for four months
Lost 7 pounds
Cut out caffeine completely
Changed diet
Taking prenatal vitamins for two months
Thanks for taking the time to answer!

Open Question: 6 Weeks Pregnant and Showing-what is the deal?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 23:32:42 GMT)
I'm not sure if I'm just fat looking, but my tummy sure has gotten big within this last few weeks. I wear a size 10/11 in jeans and 36DD-pretty good size girl, but my stomach has never looked this big in my shirts. Is this common in pregnancy? I am wondering do I need to go see a doctor? I was hoping to hide this pregnancy until first trimester ended, but I'm so tired of people saying to me girl you gaining weight, you better cut back even though they don't know the real deal.

Open Question: Why do I always want to have sex?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 22:40:25 GMT)
My boyfriend and I have been having a sexual relationship for about 5 or 6 months now (been together for a little over a year) and I LOVE IT! Ha ha. Is that a bad thing though? I'm 17 years old and I don't know if it's okay for us to be "doing it" on a regular basis. Is it okay that we have sex 3-4 times a week. We always use protection so getting pregnant doesn't really bother me, but seriously I think about it like 5-7 times a day :/

Open Question: Could I be pregnant? Please read details...?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:48:48 GMT)
I had surgery for an ectopic pregnancy on Dec 28 2009. I was 6 weeks and the tube had ruptured, causing massive internal bleeding. After the surgery and healing process, my Dr said it was ok to start trying again. So my period was Feb 8 and we started TTC on the 10th day after, having sex every other day for about a week and a half, almost 2 weeks (as the Dr said we should). I should have gotten my next period Saturday March 6th, never came. Took a preg test Sunday, was negative, again on Tuesday, still negative. It's now Thursday and still no period so I called my Dr and she sent me for blood work to test my hCG levels. Getting it done again in 24 hours to see if it goes up. I won't have any results until probably Tuesday or Wednesday next week... Do you think the levels are just too low to show up on the home preg test? I've read that low levels aren't a good thing... I'm thinking about taking another preg test tomorrow morning, maybe the levels will be higher and it will get a positive? I'm just worried that something is wrong again... My first pregnancy was perfect, my son is now 2.5. I don't understand why this time it's so difficult. Even with one tube left, she says I still have pretty good chances, but I don't know what to think...
Oh, and I don't "feel" pregnant yet... which I guess could be because the hCG levels are still low?
Please report that spammer. Thanks.

Open Question: Can I ask to be induced?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:46:45 GMT)
I am 37 weeks 6 days pregnant with my third child. My other two were huge babies, my biggest at 9lbs. 8oz. 24.5inches long. I am so tired of being pregnant and I keep feeling like I am going to start my period. I have tested positive for the Group B Strep test and that kind of makes me nervous. If I went to the hospital and explained to them my concerns would they consider inducing me? I go to the health department for my prenatal care and never really get to talk to my doctor seriously about my concerns. However I am registered at the hospital right now. I just want to be induced! How can i make this happen?

Me and my boyfriend have only been together nearly 6 months and i am nearly 12 weeks pregnant. at first he was supportive, then he said he couldn't be there, then he said he loved me and stick by me, now he is saying he wants nothing to do with the baby but will pay his way. what do i do? he already has a 3 year old daughter and sees her regularly and loves her to bits, but i'm scared of bringing this child up on my own. plus my family don't like him and they don't know i'm pregnant.
really need advise from people who have been in this situation, not people who want to criticise. thank you x

Open Question: I'm 8 weeks pregnant and I miscarried a year ago at 11 weeks....?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:10:18 GMT)
I was wondering if I would show sooner with this one, and if anyone has ever been though what I have. I'm still scared I'll miscarry. I don't have my first prenatal until I'll be 12 weeks, going on 13 weeks. I have medical care with the Navy and they don't care much about the fact of my previous miscarriage and reassuring me... I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks 4 days due to spotting and cramping and that was at the normal off base doctor... any advice?
BTW I saw the heartbeat at 6w4d. it was amazing!!!
Also... Do you think I will show earlier due to the fact that I was pregnant before? Or do you think I wasn't far enough along to change when I will start to show?

Open Question: Will I really have twins? Has this happened to you?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:09:24 GMT)
I had a blighted ovum in Feb. 2009 at 12 weeks. 6 months later I got pregnant with my baby boy Noah whom I just lost at 23 weeks.
This is gonna sound weird but my uncle told me that he had like a vision(he wasnt sleeping when he saw this). He said that he saw me in the hospital with 2 babies! A boy and a girl, then like a month later he had another realistic vision or dream where he saw me with the same 2 babies!! Yesterday without telling my friend she said that she had a dream that I had a boy and a girl..My dad too told me he saw me with a baby boy though and my mother in law!! Then yesterday I think its because they told me that I dreamed that on the ultrasound there were 2 sacs!! What can this mean?? I never told any of them my uncles experience...
thanks
Thankss=)
Please dont be rude. If you havent gotten through a such loss you cant really say nothing.

I am 21 weeks and 6 days pregnant today, 22 weeks tomorrow obviously. Anyways this is my first pregnancy and expected to not feel strong movements until about now but haven't felt anything from outside my stomach. She only moves during the day and its little kicks here and there nothing strong and I have to be very still to feel them. Is this normal? My fiance and Mom cannot wait to feel her and everytime she moves and someone puts their hand on my stomach she stops. I always feel this kinda painful movement under my left breast, like in my ribs, at night mostly-- is this her? If it is her it feels like she is moving up there as far as possible, makes me not be able to sleep at all.
Anyways thanks for any input, and babydust to all of you!
Good luck!

Open Question: I need advice with my 16 year old sister...FYI this involves a lot of drama?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:46:48 GMT)
This is going to be a long story but I need some help because no one in my family knows what to do about my 16 year old sister. First of all I should say that our parents are divorced and hate each other and my sister lives with our mom and stepdad, she hates them both with a passion. My mom is not a loving person, she is very distant and cold and also incredibly strict and suspicious which is why I used to fight with her when I lived there. She kicked me out at age 15 because she couldn't deal with the fighting. My brother also left for the same reasons, we both went to live with our dad. Now about our dad, he is an overgrown child which is why I got along with him so well as a child. He is not a parent because he doesn't care what you do or where you do it as long as you don't get in his way. He also loves to allow his kids to do anything my mom disagrees with simply because he hates her. That being said he is also incredibly unstable, he jumps from job to job every few months and is always at risk of being evicted. When I lived with him we rarely had food and we never had basic necessities such as toilet paper or shampoo. So I can now go on with some details about my sister.
She has this boyfriend, at first it all seemed innocent. They've been together for over a year and in this time my sister has become OBSESSED with him. She sends 10,000 texts a month just to him. He is equally obsessed with her and constantly calls when he can't get a hold of her. My sister has blown off all of her friends and now is failing almost every class where before she was an excellent student. She fights with my mom all the time about this and now my mom has told her she is not allowed to see him. Reason being, this boy is suicidal, violent, and my mom snooped through her phone and read a full conversation about how they are planning to get pregnant...they even picked out names! So rightfully so my mom is scared and trying her best to protect my sister. However, knowing exactly what my sister is thinking, nothing will stop them from being together. My mom won't allow her to live with me which I have offered. So last night my sister told me she's moving in with my dad. I am scared to death of this because I know what it means, in about 6 weeks she'll be living with her boyfriend because my dad doesn't care.
I don't know what to do, I'm her big sister and I don't want to see her mess up her life. But I know she won't stay with my mom as she completely hates her. I can't talk to my dad about it because #1 he won't care, and #2 I'm not on speaking terms with him (that's a whole other story though). So what can I do? Anyone been through a similar situation? Thanks
But who should I report? My mom is trying the best she knows to protect her, I understand that now but at 16 that is tough to see. I know she wouldn't be better off at my dads. Should I wait until she moves in with him?

Open Question: A pregnant friend of mine keeps getting vertigo?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:12:21 GMT)
A friend of mine, who is about 14 weeks pregnant, keeps getting vertigo. Almost every time she stands up she gets dizzy. Shes asked the doctor about it, but they haven't told her anything.
Is there anything she can do to maybe stop getting so dizzy? Shes had a really rough pregnancy, always sick and she lost 13 pounds in about 6 weeks. She can barely hold down a meal.

Open Question: Can it take a year or more to conceive after Mirena removal?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:10:34 GMT)
I had my Mirena inserted 6 weeks after I had my son and that was 3 1/2 years ago. While on the Mirena, I loved it (I didn't have a period or have to worry about it). I had it removed in March 2009 and wanted to try to conceive. My periods returned to normal usually in between 27 days and 31 days. For the past couple of months my periods have been irregular. One cycle it was 48 days, then 41 days, and now 38 days. I am just really worried that I have not become pregnant after 1 year of trying. I want to hear of anyone elses experiences with the Mirena and could this possibly cause infertility. My husband and I are both healthy and young (21 and 22).

Open Question: Could I Be Pregnant? If Not What Could Be Wrong With Me?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:41:22 GMT)
Ok all week last week I had diarrhea real bad. I also felt nausea all week some days it would go away some days it was really bad others it was back and fourth all day. I felt like I had been punched in the stomach. My period was 4-6 days late (it usually starts between the 4th & 6th but didn't start until the 10th), it hasn't been as heavy and my cramps have been much worse than they usually are. I've also been craving foods I hate (donuts in-particular).
I had three people ask/tell me I was pregnant. Could I be pregnant? If not, what's wrong with me?

Open Question: Is this normal and will it ever get better?
(Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:36:50 GMT)
I'm 6 weeks pregnant and for the past few days not only have I been throwing up ALL DAY LONG and can't keep anything down (it's better now because I have a 50 dollar medicine from the doctor that I take every 6 hours so that I can still function), but also I get heartburn anytime I eat anything (and when I throw up), and I'm EXTREMELY weak, sometimes walking across the room is too much. I feel like I have cancer or something.
Is this normal or am I just not cut out for pregnancy? Will I feel this way for the next 8 months....?
