Pregnancy - January 2007

Im 33 weeks. I only gained 16 pounds so far and I do eat alot. (I have always been petite - not by choice but just dont gain weight --it runs in the family)
im 116 and was 100 when i got pregnant. doctor says its ok and everything is fine but im wondering if my baby will be a normal weight. I honestly cant even see the 16 pounds on my body. My stomach looks pregnant but is on the smaller side.

I was 5 lb 9 oz at birth. Will my baby most likely be the same?

Why should pregnant women have to hide their bumps? I think they should show them off as they should be proud of their bump. When i was expecting my daughter i NEVER covered my bump and i don't care what anybody thought of me for it, why should i?

I just did a pregnancy test today . . . I peed in a washed out pickle jar and dipped the stick for the required amount of time. The 'you're pregnant' result popped in the window really quickly so I left the room and came back after 4 minutes to see if it had faded to just a 'no, you're not' result. It didn't!
So my question is this. . . Can a pickle jar be pregnant or is it really me? Pickles don't have the right hormone do they? I feel kinda weak at the thought! I want to be pregnant and I have never gotten a false postive before. I plan to try the test again tomorrow morning, minus the pickle jar.

I just found out 2 days ago that my pregnant girlfriend is having a girl. She really wanted a boy and now she is very depressed. She already suffers from depression and is on medication. She has the feeling that the child will not get the same attention as a male would have. I am just glad that we are having a healthy baby. I tried to talk to her but it is difficult and we end up arguing. I just can't understand her thinking. She is very tom boyish and she dislikes "girlie girls". It is if she is judging our child already. She is due in april and I hope her feelings will change. Thanks for the help

Has anyone ever given bith to twins and neither you nor the father had twins in your families'? I've been on the Seasonale pill for 2 years. As you may or may not know.......with this birth control pill you only have a period every 12 weeks (3 mths.)...I've recently found out at the ER that I'm early pregnant while actively taking the pill. My HCG levels in my blood changed significantly in less thatn 48-hours as a twin pregnancy would. I'm scheduled for an ultrasound Monday to find out for sure. My husband is upset at the possibility since neither of us has twins in our families. My Dr. stated that I could've had eggs backed up from the type of pill I was on. Anyone ever conceived twins in the manner with out them in either family?

i went to the dr today, i'm one week overdue. i'm 1 cm dilated and i was just wondering if anyone knows if theres an avg amount of time it takes before labor starts once you've began dilating. i know every women is different, so it varies, but is there an average time? or how long has it taken in your experience? he said if i dont go into labor by monday, to come back in and we'll talk about inducing then. i've had contractions, some strong, but mostly mild-moderate, and they arent regular really yet. my cervix is softened and effacing also.

I've had an irregular cycle for quite some time now. Because I am overall healthy and none of my tests are cause for alarm, doctors have been unable to understand why my body does this. I have periods every 5-7 months if that. I say all this because I've been nauseated for the past week and now I'm experiencing abdominal discomfort, almost like cramping, but very light. I'm wondering if I could be pregnant. I've taken two tests, both negative. I've had intercourse 3 times over the past 3 and a half weeks. Has anyone experienced anything like this before?

I have a doctors appointment today, I just wanted some feed back. My nurse told me to begin monitoring my temperature every morning to see if I ovulate at all. Any advice or shared experience would be great.

my 43 year old mom is prego and my fiancee is expecting my child. my child will be born before my brother. so the uncle will be younger than the nephew LOL. My mom and my fiancee both needs me. I have to split my time between the 2 women. Because my mom is divorced and feels alone (she had a one night stand with someone and got knocked up) she puts guilt trips on me if I don't go over there and visit and takes care of her. I told her to call my sister but my sister and mom have issues. And I work 2 jobs and the 2 women are mentally and physically draining me. If I want to go relax and chill for awhile. My fiancee will put guilt trips on me saying that I don't love her as well.
Where do I go or what do I do if I want to relax?

I am 38 weeks pregnant, been losing my mucus plug slowly, 2 cm dilated and 50 % effaced. When in preterm labour @ 35 1/2 weeks on Dec 16th. The doctor stopped it through IV. The doctor and nurse don't think I will make it to my due date (Jan 18)

Been having contractions off in on everyday, but they do not increase in strength. Contractions seem to be getting worse everyday. Back Pain and having a lot of soft frequent bowel movements. Is labor right around the corner?? ( I hope so)

Whenever I want to talk about how I'm feeling..hormanal, fat, cravings, bigger breasts, etc. my hubby rolls his eyes or changes the subject. When I ask him why he says "I'm a guy we don't like talking about that kinda stuff" He does not seem that interested going to appoitments with me or talking about baby names. What's up?

I'm 13 weeks pregnant an today I felt (while I was walking to a filing cabinet) some weird "rustling" or fluttering-(not like gas either...this was different) in my lower abdomen? I can now feel the top of my uterus above my pelvic bone and that's where I felt the "movement". Is it possible to have been the baby? It's been very, very active on all my ultrasounds!

I know that you are not supposed to mess with cat feces or clean up a litter box, but how about a puppy or dog??? I have a little chihuahua puppy and I have to clean up his pen. Of course I always wash afterwards but I was just wondering if there are any risks? Also, what is a good safe face wash to use while your pregnant? (I go to my Dr. next Tuesday and I will ask him this also) but I need some info till then. Thanks!!!

I primarily always answer pregnancy questions that's why I am asking you guys this.....How can one of your answers get deleted by someone other than yourself? I answered a question this morning and then when I signed on this afternoon, it said I had lost 12 points. I was like....what the heck, so I go to that question I had answered and poof.....my answer had been deleted. I hadn't used in bad language or said anything derogitory...I had only pointed out that the person asking the question seemed to be making stuff up based on their previous questions that I had looked at.

Anyone else had this happen?

well late in my pregnancy i started getting veins showing up on my breasts, mostly from the nipple outward. its only gotten worse since i had my baby three weeks ago. i would assume that it is a result of breastfeeding and having small breasts pre-pregnancy, so they are stretching and everything...is there a way to reduce the showing of the veins and some minimal stretchmarks or are these here to stay? thanks in advance for your help :)
