Hi,
I had my period on 8/9/06 and yesterday 8/16/06 we had sex without protection? Are there any chances of me getting pregnant? Has anyone become pregnant within 8 days or less instead of the usual 14 days for ovulating? How soon can one get the symptoms of pregnancy, for example within how many days of having sex can one conceive and get the symptoms? Please advice?

Many thanks

2 lines means you're pregnant, and one means you're not. They say on the instructions that one line can appear lighter than the other. Well, I took one, and there are two lines, but one is so faint, that I'm unsure if it mean's I'm pregnant. Has anyone else taken this test and found a really faint line indicating positive?

My little boy Nigel is sick and i've already tooken a day off for a week and my boss says if i don't go back to work tomorrow than i'm fired.
I'd have my hubby stay home but he can't because he's working on this project @ work and he just can't stay home.
All of my family members are doing something for like the rest of the week AND i dont trust sitters to take care of my sick child.
What do i do?
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is sort of an old wives tale that if you're pregnant and the man you're pregnant by dosen't "feed the baby" meaning *** inside you that the baby will be skinny have wrinkley skin and peel does anyone believe in this my mother does and she tells me all the time "is paul feeding the baby if not he needs to feed the baby i don't want a skinny grandbaby" it's said that if the man feeds the baby then the baby will be fat and full when it's born

I am 19 and 4 months pregnant with my boyfriend child. I lived with him for 6 months. Before i got pregnant I would go with him just about every where. Now that I am pregnant it is his excuse to not bring me anywhere when I mena anywhere I mean anywhere. He will go to work around 5:30 a.m. get off at 3 or 3:30 then go straight out with his friends no phonecall or nothing. We lived with his parents on the Southside of chicago and if you know Chicago he could be doing anything intill 4 in them moring. I was always uncomfortable with them due to the cultural diffrence and I definetly don't get along with his sister which is his love and blah blah. So I would spend pretty much 18 hours of my day in a room. Sleeping to make the time go bye. What a life? It was never like that intill now. Just recently like 3 days ago. We moved to a little town about an 1 and half away from the city to live with my parents. He walks around all miserable and ****, but at least he socialzes and gets along quite well with everyone. he seems content. But today he was like well I have to go to chicago. So he is spending 4 days there. FOR WHAT. I really think he is cheating. He disappers all night in chicago. One night he didn't come home. Now we move and have only been here for like 3 days and he wants to go back to be there for 4 days. I ask him if you want me to come with you and he says no. He didn't even say goodbye when he got on the train. He always is telling me I am gross. I need to comb my hair, where skirts and ****. But **** man I am PREGNANT I do comb my hair. I am just so confused. I wanna try to make it work and trust him for my baby. But **** I know I will not sleep for the 4 days he is gone because I will be worrying about what he is doing.

Does it get better by itself if you just leave it alone?

I'm 24 weeks and I have heartburn every single evening for some reason!!!

I've stopped eating spicy foods and I've tried taking antacids (like Tums) but they make me feel nauseous, as does drinking milk.

I'm just trying to put up with it, but I don't know what else to do. I'm always scared its going to make me throw up. Will it sort itself it out and go away without taking anything?

We had 2 pregnancy scares [been together almost two years] so he wanted me to get on birth control.. My mother had made an appointment for me to go to my gynecologist and my dr asked me if i wanted to be put on birth control and i said yes and chose Nuvaring.. Ive thought about switching to pills but i heard the nausea and cramping is worse.. Its not like im doing it on purpose.. Im just tired of feeling this way.. So how do i tell him?

I have been with my wife for 6 years and married for 1 1/2 years. We are 26 years old and own a home. I have a good job with great income. My preference is to wait until I am 29 or 30 my wife would like to have a child at 27. I would like to purchase another home and more toys before we go forward with kids. What do you think??

I bleed a little everyday. Well the blood doesn't really come out, I stick a peice of tissue up there everyday and there is a little blood mixed with mucus.
Is that a sign of pregnancy or maybe miscarriage? (I hope not). I have to wait until Saturday morning til find out for sure if I'm pregnant.
But I just wanted to know what you thought.

Me and my girlfriend have been trying for a baby for one year now, she doesn't know i'm going through other methods to have my own baby. Iv'e made an appointment to get fertility tested, but in myself I feel that's not the problem. I feel I am the cause of the problem giving her stress by arguing with her, I have been told that stress can sometimes prevent one from having a child, is there another way of making her fall pregnant without insertation. Many thanks.
