She does ' poo' on a daily basis but very little and it seems to be runny. She has changed milk formula recently...to a more easier digestion one. Hoe do you relieve the constipation if she has it? Is this normal?

I have heard so many things that confirm and deny the following pregnancy symptoms. I wanted to get your opinions. I'd appreciate it so much :)

1. Abnormal Acne breakouts on the face
2. Lower abdominal pressure that doesn't really hurt. It just feels like you have to go to the bathroom even if you don't.
3. Nasal congestion/dryness.

I'd appreicate your input. Thank you!! :)

Hi everyone...

My sister is in her 2nd / 3rd trimester of her pregnancy (I can't remember) and she told me that she's having serious itches and rashes in her vagina, breast and stomach. My mum said that it is common and she doesn't really want to take any medicine during pregnancy. It is not STI because my sister and her husband were both virgin when they got married (I am 100% sure about this), so STD ruled out. What could be the problem? Is there any safe OTC cream that can be used?

Cheers!

Is it a cause for concern if you are 4+ months pregnant and have not gained any weight?

I know that everyone's situation is different, but just want to see what other families live on. I don't have any kids now, but want to in about a year- and then I would like to stay home, but am wondering if we can make it on only my husband's salary. If I hear other people budgeting the same $ that we would be, that would make me at least a little hopeful!! Thanks so much!

Hi

I asked a question yesterday and everyone was most helpful.. I have read your replies and read lots of posts from others since and the answers to those...

I am wondering i have symptoms of pregnancy or not?:

I am normally a cold person, but the past week, i have been quite hot in temperature for me, swollen ankles a lot too

I have been going to the loo more frequently and have been an emotional wreck for the past week

I am feeling tired, but i have been busy these past couple of weeks so im not sure if it is that...

I have for the past two days felt the feeling (like a light cramp) i get just before i come on my period, but no period..

Some of you advised i take a pregnancy test as its two weeks since intercourse without protection and ive not been on the pill for past 3 months... do I still go and get a test today or wait to see if my period starts?

My 12-year old drops to the floor when she is upset. Sometimes she throws a fit.

She has been tested when she was young and there is no disorder. She can be high-strong, but passionate about life, witty, charming, spontaneous, caring, adventurous and creative.

I say to her, "I see that you are upset, but please stand up and let's discuss this".

Any other suggestions how to curb her intense emotions?

I have a 17 month old daughter and my husband and I are VERY active, but we use a diaphragm. Recently I got a yeast infection and normally I wouldn't think anything of it but I haven't had one since I was pregnant. In addition to that, my mothers cat was addicted to me when I was pregnant and since the baby was born has not come near me, now all of a sudden I can't get her to leave me alone. Does this sound like paranoia or has anyone else experienced these early signs before missing their period?

I am almost 7 months pregnant and I read in one of my Pregnancy books about pre-eclempsia (sp?). The only symptom I have is the little white flashes in front of my eyes. They are basically little white sparkley dots and sometimes they move like they are water running down a window pane. My eyes are open when I see them. Should I be concerned...it has happened more than 5 or 6 times!

Okay,Im24 wks pregnant and have a doctors appt today.My doctor told me last month that we would take the glucose test at 24-28 wks.Well she did'nt tell me to come in on a empty stomach or anything so do you think I will have to be tested today or next month.I mean maybe this is kind of a stupid question but I don't have the brightest doctor.I think i'm going to switch doctors.

How do they test you for the glucose screening test?

I was just wondering if it's possible to have a false pregnancy test.
My last period was November 6, and I took the test (3 times). However, the doctor could not see the baby sack. So maybe I am not pregnant?

I stopped the depo-provera shot in November of 2006. While I was on it, I never had periods except maybe twice in the 3 years i was on it. I switched to the pill and had my period right away on the 4th week.

By the way, I am not trying to concieve. But I thought this would be the best category to put it. Thankyou!

Now that I'm having periods again, does that mean I'm fertile? Does that mean I am able to concieve? I heard the depo can take up to a year or more for it's affects to leave the body and some women don't get there period untill that time. But I had mine, it was a normal period and lasted around a week.

Just a question. I'm confused. How old is a pre-teen & how old is a teenager?

I've even seen myself doing it, making excuses for not carryin onwith breast feeding. The BF Mafia really get on my t!ts (no pun intended!) cos every woman makes the choice for their own reasons!
