Pregnancy - February 2007

I'm 19, and I just got married last year, and found out just before Christmas that my husband and I are expecting our first baby in August 2007. Then, my Mom found out that she is pregnant! She hasn't had a doctors appointment yet, so we're not sure when she is due, but I think it would be pretty crazy if we were due around the same time. I already have a brother who is 2 and a half, and a sister who is 9 months old. I know it isn't THAT unusual, since my Mom is only 37, and she has a new husband, but it's still pretty strange to me.

Some of my friends think that I should be mad, because now I have to share my "pregnancy spotlight" with my Mom. I'm really not mad at all, I mean what can I do? This will be my Moms 5th child, and my 1st so there is a pretty big difference. So far I've been really supportive, so I'm pretty curious why my friends seem appalled.

Should I be upset at all? Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm 5 weeks and 4 days pregnant. As soon as I found out last Sunday that I was pregnant I made the decision to quit immediately. Trouble is it's been easier said than done. I normally smoked 25-35 cigarettes a day. Now I smoke about 2 or 3 cigarettes a day. When I find the withdrawals are getting really bad I'll have a few puffs off of the cigarette and put it out. I want to quit completely but it's so damned hard!! Going from 25-35 smokes a day to none seems to be next to impossible so I've managed to drastically cut down to only a few smokes a day tops. I wanted to use the patch but doctor advised against it. How can I completely quit?? I'd like to hear from ex-smokers who had the same problem. (And preachy non-smokers who've never smoked can keep their holier-than-thou opinions to themselves. Sorry but I find people who've never smoked have no idea what it's like and they end up being condescending).

OK so why is there women out there that complian about being pregnant. Why are there women out there that the minute they take that pregnancy test say their pants are too tight and want pickles or somthing weird to eat and want to take a nap. Why do they say becuase they are pregnant they can't clean their house or take care of their kid. It doesnt make sense. I keep seeing these people who are getting pregnant that really do not need kids at all. But yet there are women out there that deserve children and just can't conceive. I dont get it. Its amazing how pregnancy puts this stuff in your head that you actually believe. Why do these women act this way?

I am 12 weeks pregnant and everything is going great according to my OB. When should I announce my pregnancy? Only my family knows right now.

I feel nervous and anxious to tell everyone because some people will bombard me with questions and too much attention. This is our first baby and I just feel weird having everyone know I am pregnant. My husband said he will announce it when I feel comfortable.

What do you think?

I am 20 weeks and my doctor has yet to measure my fundus or examine my breasts, cervix, etc. I'm wondering if I need to get a new doctor. They have done some blood work. They didn't even screen me for gestational diabetes and diabetes runs in my family. My doctor listens to the baby's heartbeat, checks my urine and the MA checks my vitals and weight. Other than that, I feel like I am going there just to visit with him!

to be happy all the time? As for my self I hate being pregnant. I hate it. I can't have my coffee in the morning (starbucks) I cant dye my hair so how I have two sets of hair color (black and red) I cant go out with my friends and more to bar or clubs. I cant do anything fun any more. Ok why cant thing like washing dishes, laundry, ext.. be bad for the baby. BUT yet I work 40 hours plus a week and I feel sick all day. And yet my boyfriend wants me to have sex with him. He has to be ot of his mind. I no idea how some women go through this.

ok so between the dates of jan 11 and jan 15 i was ovulating/fertile [i checked my mymonthlycycles account].. me and my boyfriend had sex about 10 times [without a condom and he pulled out each time - i know, not the best idea] within those days without knowing what was going on inside of me.. i was suppose to get my period on the 28th of jan and its pretty much a week late.. i took a test last wed [jan|31] and it came out negative and my boyfriend told me to take another one this morning to be sure it was right so i did.. this time it was a little weird.. the negative line was really dark and it had a slight "positive" line that was really light and only showed on the top half [it looked like an upside down capital T].. not too sure of results..

Details of my test: there are about 4 lines of dots for - & 1 line of 4 dots in +

im not here to be told im stupid.. im 19 and know what im doing.. just want a reasonable explaination to what this may mean.. thank you in advance!!!

You would think they would show later because the tummy has more "meat" on it this time around...

and had to have emergency surgery and had my right tube removed on 1/15/2007. I went back to my doctor and had my check up and all was fine , but for the last 2 days I have been very nauseated ? I lost 1 liter of blood but am taking ferrous sulfate to help build blood back up . I haven't been feeling nauseated until a few days ago what can be the cause? Any helpful advice will be appreciated thanks.

I have been contracting all day today. I am 34 weeks pregnant. I dont know if they are real. Do fake ones stop when you walk? I walked for a while at the store and now I am resting and they have yet to stop. It almost feels like got a tad bit stronger. I took some tylenol just now to see if that helps. How can I tell if they are real. How long would the hicks last?

I am almost 35 weeks pregnant and my husband's family has not had a thing to do with me the entire time. I had my baby shower a few weeks ago and no one in his family showed up (including his own MOTHER or step mother). Now we have had the discussion (fight) about calling his family while I'm in labor. I told him I didn't want any one there but him, my parents and my best friend. Why should I have to sit there in labor with his family when they couldn't even call me to give me a lame excuse why they didn't come to the shower. I particularly don't want anything to do with them now! How do you not show up to your own grandchild's baby shower? They had four weeks notice!!!!! All this time I've been pregnant I haven't seen or heard from his family one time and we live in the same dang town!!! What do you all think of this? What should I do? I really really don't want his family there!!!

Why is it we only have two scans. Do you think having too many scans is bad for the baby.
