Pregnancy - December 2006

i saw my midwife today because i had cramping and diarrhea,
and felt extremely sick. she thought it may be labor starting and wanted to monitor.
she found that i was not in labor as yet but she believes i will be very soon. (i only have a week left)
i remember having the diarrhea right before labor with my first but cant remember how long it lasted as it was over 6 years ago.
can anyone who had the diarrhea before labor tell me how soon it should go away?

I have this assumption in my head that if you don't tear when giving birth you will have this stretched out gaping hole forever. I know that if you tear the doctor will stitch you up and most of the time give you an extra stitch or two known as the "daddy stitch" but if you aren't stitched up what is it like after?

I am 39.5 weeks pregnant. ok i have been having contractions for 3 days non stop. they are only painful at night. The painfull ones start around 8 30 pm at night and start at around 30 mins apart and get down to 4 mins apart by around 4 am in the morning then the pain subsides.I also get these real bad stabbing pains in my vagina while i get the bad contractions. I feel my stomache tighten up and go a weird shape and then i get a real bad period type pain and it lasts around 80 seconds. I only get a few bad ones during the day all the rest are painless but i can still feel my tummy tighten. i was just wondering has anyone else gone through this with a previous pregnancy and how long did it go on untill you had your bub? please dont tell me to go to the hospital as i live in australia and i have called the hospital already and they tell you to come in when they are constant and at 4 mins apart and the pain is severe. They wont admit you until you are 4 cm dialated here. thanks

Hi!

A friend lent me a doppler, but I don't know after how many weeks of pregnancy the heartbeat can be heard with one of these.

I know I'll have a dating scan in a few weeks and I'll be able to hear it then, but then I have to wait nearly 6 weeks to know if there IS a heartbeat at all.

Does anyone know when these dopplers can pick up the baby's heartbeat?

Thanks

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and have major cravings for orange juice. If I get anywhere near orange juice, I can't help but have at least 4-5 glasses of it each day or munch on mandarins/oranges. Is there a dangerous/excessive level to having this much?

I'm 37 weeks and 3 days pregnant and my baby always seems to be on my right side under my ribs. There is always a huge bump there (like his back or butt or something) and it's really uncomfortable! He pushes so hard sometimes that it make my ribs really sore and I can't sit up straight!

Is it normal for him to be pushing so hard?

Do you think he's stuck, or just comfortable there?

Is there any way to move him without hurting him?

Thanks :)

Round and ripe, there is no question about that certain beautiful air about them, but sexy? when you see a woman in her most feminine state, do you find them more than attractive? do you think it is something animalistic in our blood to put the glowing pregnant woman on a pedastal? lets hear your thoughts!

I work in a nursing home. Everyday, I have to lift heavy residents and work with residents who have several types of infections that include staph and MRSA. I also have only been pregnant twice and both pregnancies ended in miscarriage.

I am now nearly 6 wks along and I really want this pregnancy to work out. So here's my question:

Should I ask to not lift heavily for awhile and should I request not to be near those with infections? And should I get a doctor's order to support this? Should I HAVE to get a doctor's order? (I mean, I work with nurses! They should know that a pregnant woman shouldn't be around MRSA!)

Thank you so much!

I am 23 weeks pregnant. Throughout my pregnancy i*ve had so many complications. The father left me for an ex, im always sick, always having to get hooked up to iv's, couldn't keep my job cause im at the doctors so much, Lets just say it has been the most stressful time ever for me. A week ago i broke doown about my ex. I couldn't stop crying probably a good 5 hours. Hormones, i know. crazyness. Well a couple nights i wake up with horrible pains in my tummy, from above my belly button, to my lower belly. Not round ligament pains, something way different. They usually go away, well yesterday i had them all day and night. No sleep. Today i had them for about 2 hours, i thought i was going to pass out and get sick. It hurts to walk mainly. Now im perfectly fine, but in another hour or 2 they will come back. Any clue why?

I don't like alot of people in my space (in my house). I also don't like it really loud here. Seems like the more people around, the louder things get and it irritates me to no end. Am I being unreasonable? I feel like people need to quit acting like they can just drop in and party whenever they feel like it, especially with the new baby due at any time. I kick people out of my house contstantly.. I don't want uncomfortable people (anyone besides my family and my boyfriend) around me when I'm going through contractions and having cramps being loud and obnoxious. Does anybody think this makes me a *****? Thanks in advance for answers =)

I am 7 weeks pregnant (with our 3rd) we have told everyone except for my brother in law & his wife. They have been trying to concieve for a couple years even went through IVF with no luck. Everytime she finds out some one is pregnant she gets very sad, depressed and then jelous. My husband and I have been tryng to think of the best way to tell them, I don't want to wait till she notices my belly in a few months. My mother in law said to email her, but that just seems wrong to me. Any advise would be so much appreciated, Thanks!

If women have had the choice since the beginning of time to chose whether or not to have a baby, why should that right be taken away from her? With many different "treatments" that women have had the knowledge of, secretly passed from mother to daughter and more obvious methods that were known by others throughout history, to be able to do this with every right to do so, why is it wrong? In the past, during biblical times, the moment of conception wasn't based off of when the sperm meets the egg, especially since during those times, they didn't even contribute women having eggs to have fertilized. And during those times, there were many health issues that cause the woman's menstrual cycle to stop. It was usually decided upon by the woman when she felt the first kick of the baby. She then "reported" that she was pregnant, and then was treated as such. What reason, religiously or otherwise, should this right be taken away from women?
