Pregnancy & Parenting - 9 January 2007

have been experiencing all the common pregnancy symptoms for several weeks now. I have taken 3 hpt so far which came out negative. Also been to see the doctor who was completely useless (after explaining my symptoms etc all she told me was to that if I still had no period within a few months and started to get a bump I was probably pregnant).

I was taking cerazette when the symptoms started after I missed one pill, which I have now stopped to ensure no harm to the possible baby. Since coming off the pill I have not had any bleeding and its been over a week (not sure how long to wait for withdrawal bleeding if not pregnant). My boyfriend and I have also been having unprotected sex since I stopped the pill to give us the best chance of getting a positive test.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing the symptoms, how long it takes to get withdrawal bleeding if not pregnant, if hpt occasionally never show positives, and if I should take a prenancy vitamin?

Can you have FOUR heavy periods and still be able to carry a pregnancy?

Also, by the 16th week does your stomach start protruding?

I think this is swedish or finnish. Can anyone translate it into English? (Babel fish doesn't have swedish or finnish)

Don't you think people are going against nature on this when they have more than 5 babies?

On a woman's own without ivf they can have quints but the odds are up there for that but why would anyone want 6 or more at once?

Can you get pregnant without having sex? I know this sounds like a stupid question, but I'm wondering. If you can, how.

My baby is 6 weeks old and I am breastfeeding. My husband and I introduced the bottle when she was 4 weeks old. She initially took the bottle very well and then then this past week began to refuse the bottle altogether. We have been attempting to give her a bottle for the past 5 days with no success. She cries and cries until I finally nurse her from my breast. We have even tried extending her time of feeding to ensure that she was hungry. We have also tried a variety of bottles; gerber, Dr. brown and Avent. Nothing is working. She has to take the bottle for when she goes to daycare or if I just want to get out. I even tried putting something sweet on the bottle nipple (gas med.) and this didn't even work. Any suggestions would be a BIG help. We are really frustrated and worried. HELP!!!!!!!!

I have always had protected sex, til last week when i had unprotected sex. i was way too scared so he stuck it in twice for less than 5 minutes and i stopped it because i was scared. the day after the sex i got my period like i was supposed to but it stayed for 3 days and left. Its been a week and i am paranoid thinking about me being pregnant. He ejaculated himself before the sex that way he would ***, relax and then stick it in and not *** inside of me. it wasnt inside of me for more than 3 minutes but can i be pregnant anyway? i didnt feel him *** inside of me. and he also said he didnt. Do you think i can be pregnant? I'm getting headaches but i think its because im too stressed out and i dont stop thinking about it. PLEASE ANSWER ME ! I'M WAY TOO WORRIED. Even though people tell me everyday it is unlikely for me to be pregnant.

I am 6 weeks pregnant, and I am so scared of having sex with my husband because I had dreams of my husband and I having intercourse and then I start to bleed everywhere and I lose the baby....
Am I crazy? or is it okay to have sex when pregnant. This is my first pregnancy, and I have been trying for 2 years before i got pregnant. I also have endo, and I had a laparoscopy to remove most of it in October... am I just paranoid?

I've always had a hard time getting him to talk to me. I have sort of given up but I've realized that is a big mistake. Any conversation starters or other ideas? I just want to know if any other children are like this.

I had stopped taking my birth control for about two weeks.. I had sex once and started taking them again. Last night I started bleeding and having small cramps. My lower stomach is also hard. I am still breast feeding, so I haven't had my period in 6 months.. Can you help? I know I need to go to the doctor, but I dont have a ride until Friday.

Okay, well currently I have 4 month old son, and I am 19. So don't start with think about your son, because I am, and I do everything possible to make sure he has the best and is well taken care of.
With that out of the way, the baby's dad has no job, is still in school, and pays no child support due to the fact that he's in school.
Well his mom pays for anything he needs at their house, and I work so I have him covered at my house and I am on welfare too.
Well I recently stopped taking the "pill", and it's been about a month now, and well last time I did, 2 weeks later I was pregnant with my son, and well my ex and I had sex (we r not together) a while back ago, more than once, and we did not use a condom once or twice bcuz I thought it would be safe, this was in the middle of my period, and well now I've been feeling sick alot, queasy, and I kno with the 2nd child, ur symptoms are stronger...my last period, not sure, I think was on the 14th of December.
Plz no negative responses!
