Today, I am 12 weeks 5 days pregnant. I had a miscarriage between 7 and 8 weeks on May 26th and got pregnant again immediately after that. During this pregnancy, I've had bleeding off and on since exactly 9 weeks, so of course I have been terrified of miscarrying again. I went to the doctor a week ago today and had an ultrasound that showed a baby measuring spot on (actually a little ahead) and a heart rate of 162, in spite of all the bleeding. I have a home doppler and can hear the baby's

Right now, I'm currently going to my 3rd trimester of my 2 year college, and it is soon to be done. I take my classes online (independent) and I enjoy it. What I've learned about my college for this is my classes' (Computer Information Technology; subjects: Keyboarding, spreadsheet, web page design, advanced graphic, Intro to Java, Visual Basic, etc.) hours are added up, with tuition fee and online fee and that is the price. I think it was a great advantage. However, I want to go into some

Hi all, bit of advice please if possible? I am 10 weeks pregnant. As my first pregnancy ended in miscarriage earlier this year I am totally paranoid and doing everything by the book as much as possible. I'm aware that I didn't cause my last miscarriage, but until 12 weeks,doing all I can is making me feel better, then its in natures hands! So, my hair has not been coloured for about 5 months and is looking hideous. I really need my usual which is half head of highlights, I am naturally mous

...about the fact that they're stuck in the 50's on this issue? Personally, if I were to impregnate a girl, I would never use abortion as some golden ticket out of a tough situation. Not based on any moral or ridiculous religious belief, but because I would want to care for that child and have always wanted to start a family. With that said, it's NOT my choice. The US supreme court has decided that, if the woman carrying that fetus wants to terminate that pregnancy within a certain timefra

I was taking it for a rash i get on my face and will have to be on the antibiotics for about 9 months to get rid of it. As soon as i found out i was pregnant i stopped but it is a D catagory antibiotic which is the 2nd last worst one. I wasnt very good at taking them though and often missed days at a time so i reckon i only took about 6 weeks worth of them. Ive read that in the 1st trimester it isnt so bad and i called the manufacturor who said the same thing that b4 18 weeks its ok. does anyo

My hubby and I have found out that we are expecting, i'm about 6weeks along. I need some info that I can give to my hubby to understand why I feel the way I feel. He does not seem to happy that I do not want to have sex, he does not understand why I ask him to make dinner and then not eat it, why i'm always tired and all the mood swings. I do not want him to feel like I'm not attracted to him or do not want to eat the food he makes, its just, well most moms will know what I mean....so plea

i'm pregnant and on my last trimester.. only recently that i went to a good doctor and she's having me go for a routine urinalysis before my next check up.. i wanted to tell her about my discharge but a friend of hers who is not a patient dropped by and all the doctors attention went to her friend.. now, about the urinalysis, can it tell the doctor that i have yeast infection? my discharge has been well, it doesn't seem right.. and i want to make sure that i'm all healthy in every little way

Im 31 weeks pregnant and I no its safe to take Tylenol during your pregnancy, but I dont no about any cold medicines.

i had a c-section with my daughter in december '09 and got pregnant 3mos later! i heard it takes almost a year to fully 100% recover. im in my 3rd trimester now and just started showing and the area where my incision was has alot of pain most of the time. i know that stretching and such causes discomfort but this isnt the same. when my baby kicks in that area i double over! and when i walk a good bit it starts to hurt alot too. could it have not had enough time to heal? could being pregnant ag

Not really a question, I just thought I would post this article I found. With me personally, it was correct both time. With each of my girls my HCG was very high. *Israeli scientists have demonstrated that levels of maternal serum HCG (MSHCG) – the hormone that reveals in blood or urine tests whether or not a woman is pregnant – are nearly a fifth higher less than three weeks into pregnancy if a woman is carrying a girl than if she is carrying a boy. HCG’s role at the beginning of pregnancy

I'm in my second trimester (almost 15 weeks now) and I was wondering if anybody else had sex a lot when they were pregnant? Is it okay to? If you don't know then don't comment on it or judge. I want to know who's experienced this before. Thanks.

I know I should avoid all drugs in the first trimester but I am in grad school and need to feel better to get some work done. I have been using the humidifier and vicks vapor rub but I don't seem to be feeling better. I had some soup for lunch but I'm really hungry now and have no idea what else I can eat.

WHat about you hows your frist trimester going and what can you eat a

Currently 8+3 and really need to colour my hair, is it ok? (I'm not bleaching BTW)

I have noticed that anti-choice people don't use facts in their arguments. They lie by saying that a useless clump of cells is worth more than a real human's freedom. I have also noticed how they use pictures of stillborns and Jell-O to convince people that this is true. They even managed to convince people to ban partial-birth and 3rd trimester abortions because of this fear. Don't they feel any remorse for showing their still births and Jell-O and lying about it being a baby? When will peopl

I was wondering because I am 32 weeks preggy and it seems no matter what time I got to bed, I wake up at 6 am!! that is very very unusual for me. Even if I go to bed at 12 am or 1 am. I am wide awake at 6 am ; baby is not moving she is smart she sleeps until 9 or 10 thanks!!

So lately, I've felt like I've been at a loss.. I am going to be a senior in high school. I feel like I messed up because there will be 4 C+'s on my transcript in total of the 25 classes I took up until now (trimester schedule). I have taken advanced/honors classes, but I am disappointed in myself for having test anxiety, and I could have done better in those classes. Am I being reasonable? I just feel like a failure, and I've never felt like this before..

with my dd i had no symptoms, with this preg i had nausea, unbelievable mood swings, sore boobs etc. i am 11 weeks post conception, i had had m/c then no period and next month pos preg test. they did u/s and 1st one had no heartbeat 1 week later heartbeat so they dated this preg at the time at 6 weeks.u/s last week shows full on baby, moving kicking spinning etc. all the sudden though all my symptoms just stopped except occasional tender boobs. i love my hubby again and no longer want a div

Hey guys, i heard someone say that when the child is inside you ( in the last trimester when its bigger) it can get its hand/foot stuck inbetween your ribs and can cause them to crack? i didnt believe this to be honest but id like a bit of reassurance because im not sure if its true? if it is it sounds so painful! lol

The cramps are mild to moderate and the pressure feels like a heavy weight. I am 5 to 8 weeks pregnant.

I just found out through email transcripts that my (ex)girlfriend who is due in October has been smoking and selling marijuana during the pregnancy. She is also an ex heroin user with a subutex (very rare to get) prescription. In one of the emails she tells her (for lack of better) guycheatingwith that "I took a soma yesterday and felt great for 4 hours, I cant wait to get this thing out of me so I can start abusing myself freely again." I'm sure the child is mine. I also have a pending du

If you had aching in your lower abdomen and back, how bad did it hurt and describe how it felt and how long it lasted? Can you give me a detailed description? I just heard some people say they had bad pains in their lower tummy and back when they were in the early stages of pregnancy. I'd like to know if my pains could be cause by a pregnancy. Thanks!

Hi guys. So I'm 7 1/2 months pregnant and just admitted to my fiancee on Thursday that I'm depressed. I have dealt with depression ever since I was 13 and it has come and gone since then. I had a really rough first trimester where I was sick all the time and since this was an unplanned pregnancy, I didn't really have a chance to mentally prepare myself for this huge life change. My second trimester was relatively easy but now in the third trimester, my depression has come back. This is the wor

I'm 15 weeks pregnant and since about a week ago I have to go to the bathroom ALL. THE. TIME. I drink the same amount of water as before this all happened but now I have to go every 20 minutes and it's not just a slight feeling its like I have to run and cross my legs at the same time or I'm gonna pee myself! When the doctor listened to the heartbeat a few days ago my little one was right near the bottom right of my abdomen kind of right by my hip bones. I thought this peeing thing didn't come

So im going to be 36 weeks on Monday. For the past week or so i have been experiencing menstral like cramps off and on, there not painful or anything but are uncomfortable at times. I have had the runs and some days im constipated. I get nauseous and dont really have much of an appitite either. Also i get headaches more now that im in the 3rd trimester. Are any of these signs that labor will be here soon? Or is it all normal? Thanks =]

I used to jog and run sprints before my pregnancy but stopped because of the morning sickness. I am now 26 weeks and feel great. I want to start jogging but am concerned that I will harm the baby or something. Any idea of the pace I should jog at and for how long? Any other advice?

seems like a lot of people, like myself have lost more weight then gained weight. Ive lost 10 lbs. How much weight did you lose/ gain in your first trimester?

I am now 26 Weeks &I have been having some kind of mild cramping which sometimes makes me feel like i cant even move or stand up straight. I have been researching it on internet and it seems like its quite normal at the end of your second trimester. But should I still be worried though? for more details the mild cramping feels like light sharp pains only not as painful but it feels as though someone is tighten my stomach..i dont know how to explain it lol.

ive been having occasional vaginal soreness, really on the mons pubis (i believe thats what its called?) and sometimes in the vagina. is this normal

I feel the need to complain and vent for a bit! Sorry in advance, I'm just so miserable! I'm 10 weeks pregnant and haven't had an appetite for at least a week. Nothing sounds good, smells good or tastes good. I have to force myself to eat at all. What is going on? From before I even found out, up until about 2 weeks ago I was eating like a horse and wanted everything in sight. And I mean everything! But now I've lost 2 pounds over the past two weeks. My husband is starting to freak out becaus

My friend is pregnant and she just found out and she flew to see her family and it is about a 4 hour plane ride and she is staying out there for one day and then flying back home and then she wants to drive to see me about a four hour drive and then we are both driving back the day after she gets here...is that too much for her? She is about 8-10 weeks preg.

I am almost entering my second trimester in the my first pregnancy, and, after our first ultrasound on the 17th, my husband and I are finally going to tell our parents we are pregnant. We are very excited about this, especially because it will be my Mom and Dad's first grandchild. We have been brainstorming special and creative ways about how to break the good news, and have decided to give my Mom and birthday card from "baby", but we also wanted to come up with a special way to tell his paren

I have been having pain in my lower abdomen it comes and goes. I am at the end of my first trimester and I just want to know if I should be worried.

I am a 25 year old pregnant woman in my 3rd trimester. Prior to my pregnancy I had no health problems to speak of. Recently, I have started noticing really heavy fatigue. I also have developed a hacking cough with a strange gurgling sound that occasionally shows up underneath my left rib cage. I am concerned that this is something serious... such as the beginning of heart failure. I have been to a doctor and had an EKG run last week; everything showed up normal. I also went to see my GP

I Wanted To Take Choir but I Putted Survey . Anyways, Do we change classes every trimester or just the same classes ?

Hey, Im almost 24 weeks pregnant and had a few questions. This is my second successful pregnancy and Ive noticed some things different this time around. First of all, I started feeling my son move by 13 or 14 weeks. Honestly, I dont know how that is possible, but I know I started feeling tiny flutters around that time. With my first son, I was about 20 weeks before I felt anything at all. Now that Im about 5 months, I think its kind of weird that I was still feeling such light movements with

I have had a lot of pregnancies, actually think I have had everything occur. First three ended within 6 weeks as a teenager, and I was told I probably would never have a child. At 20 I had my first son and the entire pregnancy seemed unreal since I kept thinking it was a matter of time before it ended in disaster. He was born perfect with no complications, no medicines, no hormone treatments, etc. Pregnancies five and six ended before 8 weeks with no reason. Tests came back fine for hormones,

Alright, I'm a little slow on all of this college stuff-could you all give me a little help? To start off, I'm a girl going into sophomore year in a public high school. Last year, wasn't my best year: I had some personal troubles and my grades went from all A's to B's. Probably a rough 3.7 GPA. (I usually try a lot harder than I did.) I took all CPA classes, except for French, in which I took Honors. But this year, I'm putting forth my best efforts to get all A's again, and I'm in all Honors

This is my 2nd pregnancy I has a miscarriage early on lat one but this one is going good so far. I just was wondering what am I suppose to feel in the forth month or end of first trimester? Because I don't really feel anything any more. Im not a hungry just Beyond thirsty, and my breast don't hurt. The only change I see is that I am sleepy all the time and emotional. When will I really start feeling changes and seeing them?

So, I am pregnant. It's been confirmed. I am in the second trimester and during the first one I hardly had any symptoms that were majorly bad. Well now this trimester I have been getting sore nipples really bad, and I was just wondering if there was anything I could use or do to make them hurt less. My doctor also told me I am lactating a little bit already, not like squirting or dripping or anything, but it's drying on them so I don't know if that's what's making them hurt so bad or what'

He was just busted in my home town for not being medically licensed and performing abortions on women in their second trimester, and even further along. When they raided his medical office they found frozen fetuses and fetus parts. Uhh!!!! http://www.mbp.state.md.us/BPQAPP/orders/D4835208.310.pdf How sick can people in this world possibly get?! Someone aborted their baby at 35 weeks...that is just ridiculous!!!!

Are you a believer in life at conception or after the second trimester?

Do you like or dislike it? Do you find it easier or harder? Do you find teachers cramming more work/readings into the short 3 months?

I am asking this again, I didn't get a lot of answers... I had an appointment on Monday and I was 11w6d with a due date of March 15th 2011. The baby was measuring 11w1d and the Dr. said there is no reason to move my due date. So do I still go based on my LMP and say I am 12w4d? Since we heard a heartbeat of 186bpm...and I am this far along does risk of miscarriage go down? I know its always a risk...Just wondering! And also when does the 2nd trimester start? Is it the start of the 13th week
