Pregnancy - February 2007

Hello All!
I used to be a smoker until my husband and I decided to start a family. It was easy for me to quit because I had a great reason, he said he was going to quit as soon as I got pregnant (because he did feel it was ok for him to smoke when I couldn't). I am now almost 8 weeks and he hasn't tried to quit at all. I keep pestering him to stop and I can hardly stand the smell of him when he enters the room. Any suggestion on how to help him stop??? Do you think he will quit once the baby comes??? I don't want him stinking up the baby!

Okay, I am currently taking Yaz birthcontrol. I have been for about 7 months. My periods are about the sam every month. This month though I didnt start while taking my inactive pills. I am having cramps as usual but I just have a brown discharge like coming out. I was kind of worried so I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. I have recently changed my diet, lost 8 pounds, and started exercising so I didnt know if this would cause problems. Can someone please help me?

I'm 30 yrs old with the history of PCOS (Poly cystic ovaries syndrome), me and my boy friend have been together for almost 2 years. I found out yesterday that I am pregnant, if I break this news to the family they will be devastated and probably will not have any contact with me, I don't know for how long. My boy friend is excited about the news and is willing to raise the child with me, but he is not yet divorced, his case is dragging since past 5 yrs and he doesn't know how long it will take. I am happy to know that I'm pregnant but at the same time I have doubts and fear of the family and him not being able to be out of his messy divorce.
Please help.

My fantasy is eating an entire bag of Oreos. We're all trying to eat healthy (I hope) but I want to hear what you wish you could give in to!

I am nine months pregnant and my husband's family are a bunch of jerks. None of his family has had a thing to do with me my entire pregnancy and I know when I go into labor they will all rush up to the hospital and act like they are my best friends. More of a show for my family who already knows the truth. I don't want them anywhere near my baby, but I can't tell my husband that. He thinks his family is just great and I'm the one that needs to get over their never calling me or coming to my baby shower. How in the world am I going to be able to sit in that hospital, in labor or just had a child, with a bunch of people I can't stand? His mother especially irritates me because she is a know it all and I really don't need any advice from someone who didn't even raise her own children. Anyone know of anyways for me to deal with this up coming situation? I don't want to cause any trouble between me and my husband. I need some advice on how to cope with people you can't stand. Thanks!

im 36 weeks and 5 days after the past 2 days of feeling great and having some energy, today i feel so drained, achy, nauseous, had diarreah (sorry t.m.i.) and have been extremely emotional with some hot flashes. Ive heard of feeling sick at the end of pregnancy does this sound like it? or could it be that i am getting sick. I was 25% effaced 2 weeks ago and have been having contractions here and there...will be checked again tomorrow. Any advise, experience, input would be great! THANKS :)

It feels very sore all the time, not so much pressure but rather aches and pains. Could I still be growing, stretching or perhaps gettting closer to D-Day?! It's almost impossible to turn over because it hurts so bad. When I walk I have to be careful because my bones pop and crack. Everything feels loose... any suggestions as to what is going on? Thank you!

Last year I had two miscarriages... one in Feb. and another one in April. The one I had in Feb. I didn't know I was pregnant til I had already miscarried... I noticed that "period" was unusual so I visited the doc and he did a preg test & it came back positive. Then, the next month I got pregnant again. I went back to the doctor and he made me come back the next week to make sure the positive result wasn't from the miscarriage and that my HCG levels were rising. Anyway, I also lost that one at about 7 weeks. Now me and my partner are wanting to try again and I'm scared to death the same thing will happen. Should I see a doc to see if there's something wrong with me or should I try one more time and if it happens again then go to a doc? I'm really worried about losing another one... the last one really took a toll on me and I just really got over that one and don't think I could go through that again... Thanks for all the answers

I am in the Navy, and they have moved me to a desk job which is fine, but I'm bored all the time. One of the vaccums is upstairs just 2 flights, and they don't want me walking up there and carrying it down the stairs, they say that I could loose the baby that way. I think I will be alright, I'm only 15 weeks along, so I don't see anything to be worried about. When I pt with them, they don't even want me doing anything, besides walking. They hate it when I have to walk up and down the stairs to many times a day, and they get paranoid about the tiniest things. Should I be more worried, are they right about all this? Or are they to paranoid?

I'm 9w4d but have yet to tell my friends and family the great news; I'm not sure my mother will be best pleased at first, as it was unplanned although I'm in a secure relationship with the father and we are more than able to look after the lil' one when they arrive.

My plan is to just get on with it and tell them later tonight but I was just wondering how you all went about it and what reaction you were received with.

I had unprotected sex on Sunday (Feb. 11) without knowing. It was only for like 5 minutes but I got scared and took Plan B on Monday (Feb. 12) about 24-25 hours after it happened. Then last night (Tues Feb. 13) I saw a tiny drop of blood on my underwear. I know sometimes Plan B causes this and sometimes pushes periods back a week or longer? My expected date for my period is around Feb. 16 which is 2 days from now. I'm just wondering if the spot was a sign of me starting my period or what?! I'm scared, someone help!

Ok well I ma pregnant for the second time and very very cranky. One of my irks right now is pre-natal vitamins. I know going in how horrible they make me feel during the first trimester and how half the time I yack them up. I know they are supposed be too be good for the baby so do not judge me or say I dont care but I have had a problem bringing myself to take them everyday. Last week I took them a few times. This week I haven't even started and I have been feeling so sick for 4 days now. I keep staring at the bottle and dreading it. I have known I am pregnant for about a month now

Did anyone have problems getting into a routine with pre-natals?? I feel like a bad person but at the same time they make me feel crappy. And yes I have done the "take them with meals", "take them at night". As I said second time around. Did anyone use alternative methods, a different vitamin, skip it all together??

And yes I know about the folic acid thing too......

SO i went to the doctor yesterday I am 39 weeks pregnant and my doctor checked me and said that i have not dialated and my cervix is still long or whatever she said then she said I was measuring a bit smaller which is odd because I have been measuring normally at ever visit. What could this mean I have not been seeing my regualr doctor because my regular doctor wants me to rotate around towards the last few weeks of pregnancy so i have never seen this doctor before and now she wants me to do an ultrasound. I dont get it
