Husbands are going away and wont be their by or around the due date. And when I tell the doctor this do I have to show him papers that I am going away? I just want to be prepared.

No, I'm not pregnant but after couple months of trying to figure out when I ovulate, I finally saw a positive!!! I just didn't know when I ovulated..either I would start too early like day 10 and then gave up after 7 tests! Then last month I was travelling and stressing for no reason......Even though it's been couple months, it seems like forever!

I've purchased all sorts of ovulation kits and really saw no hope....I thought I'll have to wait couple more months....maybe obgyn would prescribe clomid....anyway, my question is...

Now that I've seen a positive, should I just have sex now? I realize that I can ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours...some say you're supposed to wait till the next day.....or do you think I should have sex the next 3-4 days? What do you think?

IM SO EXCITED!!!

I did not realize that women were still breastfeeding!! Why not just give formula milk or condensed or evaporated milk??? Does no one realize it's more nutritious for them?? There are more vitamins and things in formula than in breastmilk, especially nowadays. With these formulas they have now, why would any mother breastfeed?

THIS IS NO OFFENCE TO ANY OTHER RACE THIS IS JUST A STATEMENT .

i mean like seriously, there arent any show about asians, asians are the co-stars of everything . its annoying . i want to take a stand for once . most things are made from CHINA . like seriously, dont you agree . most popular brands (currently) such as abercrombie & hollister are MADE FROM VIETMAN . i know the company make their clothing line there cause the marketing is cheaper or so so . & usa music is all over asia already. isnt time for asian music to come to the usa? like korean, japanese & etc. not just in asian towns/villages. but in ALL stores . whats so wrong with that? okay, some asians are bad drivers but those are mostly OLD people, or just people who barely speak english . the NEW genoration of asians are much better drivers like seriously. most asians still in school, who are learning english, & so so. will be much better...i really wish somehow we(asians) could make a statement. who else agrees?

Ok so i went 4 my prenatal physical(so i thought) i told my family doc that i had some sharp pains in my belly and requested an ultrasound, he said let me examine you, he pushed on my stomach so hard i was crying, he then tells me it has nothing to do with my pregnancy and it's called positional pain(whatever that is). He won't send me for an ultrasound to even make sure my baby is ok and because i live in Hamilton Ontario Canada you need to have a family doctor make a referral to an OBGYN which he won't do. I want to report him for his conduct because when i asked him to stop pushing my belly he kept on doing it even when i tried to push his hand away, i feel like he was trying to make me miscarry or something.... What would you do if this happened to you? i'm also only 10 weeks pregnant.

My doctor is fine with it. But I am wondering if the insurance company will pay for it? I have great insurance coverage, PPO. Please don't preach about having vaginal delivery...I have done my research and know what I want. If you don't want to answer my specific question above, just don't post anything at all. Thanks! :)

I am currently 35 weeks I think??? The first ultrasound I had my due date was sep 20 the second it was the 10th and my baby weighed just over four lbs. The third ultra estimated the 2nd and my baby weighed a little over six. I am wondering how long I really have, because if babies gain .5-1 lb a week in the last month then my baby will more than likely be about 8 lbs in two-three weeks. What are the opinions on how big they will let him get and when I will probably go into labor.
