Pregnancy - October 2006

[Selected]: All categories Pregnancy & Parenting Pregnancy

I am 12weeks and 3days pregnant now. It feels like I swallowed a grapefruit... I feel a hard round feeling inside me, inches below my belly button, just above my pelvic bone really... is this my uterus? Is it supposed to feel kinda of hard? I know I should be able to feel my uterus soon, according to all this I have been reading, and I only weigh 120 pounds, so I hear lighter women feel it easier... Thanks for the input!

I saw a question on here about alternate birth control methods...
This really isnt a question...

Basal body temperature
The basal body temperature (BBT) is a person's at-rest temperature.

Natural cyclic changes in female hormones usually cause a woman's basal body temperature to decrease slightly just before an egg is released (ovulation) and then increase sharply 24 hours after ovulation. By carefully measuring BBT every morning before getting out of bed and recording it on a chart, many women are able to estimate when they are ovulating. This helps pinpoint when a woman is most and least likely to become pregnant.

The thermometer used for measuring the BBT is marked in tenths of a degree, making it possible to detect even small rises in temperature. When the temperature goes up—usually about 0.4ºF (0.2ºC) to 1.0ºF (0.6ºC)—and stays up for several days in a row, ovulation has occurred.

Keeping track of basal body temperature may be helpful for women trying to get pregnant or trying to avoid pregnancy. It is one of several fertility awareness or natural family planning methods of birth control.

Having sex during the 5 days before and the day of ovulation increases your chances of becoming pregnant.
Avoiding sex until several days after you have ovulated may help you prevent pregnancy, because the human egg is typically fertile for only 12 to 24 hours after ovulation.
Basal body temperature charting is done at home and is inexpensive. However, to get an accurate record, a woman needs to track her temperature every day for several months. Women who work varying shifts or who have irregular menstrual cycles may have difficulty getting a useful basal body temperature chart.

I am obsessing about the health and well being of my newborn baby girl. I'm a first time mother and I must admit I had a tough pregnancy and labour.

Other mothers in my mothers group seem to be holding it together. I've been pretending all is well but I worry about every germ and illness in the world and my baby contracting it. I don't even allow my family to hold my baby incase they have germs on their hands or that they may accidentally drop her.

I think I've gone mental with anxiety. I don't have the same symptoms for Post Natal Depression (I'm very happy and excited about being a mother). I'm anxious about everything and I'm scared.

Please other mums out there, help me. I'm not sure what to do. I'm frightened my Dr will put me on anti depressant drugs and my baby will consume it through the breastmilk. Otherwise my happiness and joy for this baby is overwhelming.

2 weeks ago and Got a weird period last week. I just recently had a D&C surgery in August. I have not been feeling well. Just tired alot, Nauseous everytime I eat. Loss of appetite. Back hurts. I haven't had a normal period in about 1 year. That was the reason for the D&C. So I am not even sure if what I am feeling is a reaction to that with my 1st period after. Not sure??? But I guess my concerns are is it too early 4 a home pregnancy test? Too early for a Blood test with my Obgyn??? And getting that light period an indication that I am not?? I have more pointing to no, but I still feel weird??? I am just a confused 26 year who feels so immature about this situation right now???

My boyfriend and i have been together for over 9 years and we have a son together and another one on the way, i am almost 6 monthes pregnant, and me and my boyfriend have not had sex in over 2 monthes... im feeling very deprived (LOL) Just because im pregnant doesn't mean i don't have needs, right? Well my question is how do i tell him this, i feel kind of embarassed to bring it up. I'm also wondering if maybe its because im pregnant and he thinks it might hurt the baby, or maybe he thinks i don't want to do it... or maybe he is not attracted to me when im pregnant... i didn't have this problem when i was pregnant with my first son, and we do not live together however see each other often and have alone time... i guess my questions are.....
-Do you think he doesn't want to have sex with me because he thinks it will hurt the baby?
-He doesn't want to have sex because he thinks i don't want to?
-He's just not attracted to me when im pregnant?
-AND...How do i bring this up???

I just had a miscarriage, on sept 18th. my cycle is usually between 26-32 days (usually closer to 28.) I'm not exactly sure when i'm going to, or did ovuate. I've been monitering it, and I think i already did. well, my hubby and I had some well timed sex, two sesssions of which were unprotected.
anyway, It can't be more than four dpo, and I'm getting constipated and have this hard feeling in my lower half, just like I felt when I was pregnant before.
But I'm not sure if before what I was feeling was like a sure fire sign that I was pregnant. I lost the baby at 6w2d, and I lost it. The hormone level was down to 0. I got pregnant on my second cycle of having sex (Ever, I was a virgin bride) so I'm not sure if that feeling is my body getting used to sex still or what.
I can't do any tests for a week or so, and yeah, if it keeps up I'll see a doctor. They won't test though until I miss a period. Has anyone had the same thing?

I am about 12 days late, but only had sex sep 13-17, so in my case i think it is too early to test. I have tested at least every third day and all negative. I went to the dr to do blood test and she said it was too early, but my question is how many negative test did you take till the positive result?

him of financial responsibility. He says it's so he doesn't feel trapped. Sometimes he aks like he cares for instance he'll ask if I'm taking my prenatal vitamins. Do you think I should sign and more importantly do you think he'l love his child once he or she is born?

I was surprised at Denise F´s question (and answers) about having your period while pregnant. I didn´t know that it was possible to be pregnant and keep getting your period for months.
When a woman gets her period while pregnant, are there other signs, for example, swollen breasts, belly bulging, that could help her know she´s pregnant?
