This is my first pregnancy and at 15 weeks I went to see my doctor because I was experiencing vaginal bleeding. My doctor was not there, but another doctor checked me and my baby out and said everything was fine (THANK GOD!). He then asked if I wanted to know the sex of the baby and I was shocked because I thought I had to wait a little longer to find out the sex. However, I decided to hear what he had to say and he told me I was having a boy! I was excited but a little disappointed that it wasn't a girl. So anyways we started buying boy things, telling friends and family, and even picking out names. The following week I went in for my regular appointment at 16 weeks and my doctor said he thinks it's a boy, but he couldn't find the penis!! I have been reading a lot about doctors mistakening an umbilical cord for a penis and now I am getting worried. Could I be having a girl?

She will be 78 when her child graduates from high-school. I know it is a miracle but I just don't know!

They're recarpeting and repainting at my work now (not my office, just next to it).

I'm 27 weeks pregnant, and of course the smells bug me (but not to the point of nausea).

I've got the outside door open to let in some fresh air. Is there anything else I should do to keep my baby safe? Should I just leave for the rest of the day?

I had my first ultra sound yesterday. The ultrasound suggested that i was 6 weeks and 5 days pregnant, you couldnt really see anything during the ultrasound, other than a small white blinking dot * the dr. informed me that was the heart beating* If I go by my last monthly cycle, I should be 7 weeks and 5 days ... My dr. pointed this out with concern, saying he didnt think the baby was developing fast enough, and is having me come back in a week to do another ultrasound ... to make sure the baby is developing! being a first time mom, this is a tad bit scary, -- Has anyone else ever experienced something like this or have any advice on it. Thanks so much for any input!

I started taking prenatal vitamins because were going to start trying in Sept. Following the advice of my MW. I had my cycle twice in March and haven't had one since then. MW gave me a pregnancy test and it came back (-) Can it be because I'm taking the Prenatal vitamins that they are screwing up my hormones. So I'm not having a cycle? No cycle =no ovulation =no baby right? Please help me understand.
Thank you in advance for your all of your help.

I've been having contractions at five minute intervals for four days, now. I went to the hospital, and they sent me home, saying that my cervix wasn't changing.

... So, now, we wait.

How long is this going to happen? I've barely slept in three days, and these contractions HURT.

I still haven't lost my mucous plug, and my water hasn't broken. Someone, PLEASE, tell me how to get this baby out!!!

I've been on birth control for 3 months and I started on a Sunday, which happened to be the day I got my period. I was told I wouldn't have my period on a weekend if I was a Sunday start but my periods have been coming on a Thursday and lasting until Sunday/Monday after. I was wondering, since today is Thursday and I started this morning, is there any way I can reset my cycle by taking my first pill of the new pack today instead of continuing with my placebo? When will I be fully protected if this is the case?

I just found out that I'm pregnant on May 9, I took a preg. test 2 weeks prior but it was negative. my last period was the beginning of March, my first appointment is June 1, but it's killing me not knowing how far I am. I have had symptoms for about 4 weeks now, but I guess my question is how long does it take for a pregnancy test to show up? I am so confused and anxious, anyone have advice?

I took the first 1 hour test today, and became very dizzy and hot about a half hour after I drank the glucose and had to lay down right away as I felt like I was going to pass out. Is this normal or is it any indication that I could have the condition?

Am going to be 37 weeks this saturday, and am supposed to have a scheduled c-section. My doctor said that am supposed to have a c-section around 38 weeks, but he hasnt given me the date or time yet! He said that at 36 weeks he will give me the date, but when i went and saw him tuesday, he said no i'll give you the date on 37 weeks. Thats just confusing.

How early was your c-section scheduled?

Thanks

The past two weeks I have noticed my breast hurt. Which is not normal for me. I suspected I might be pregnant. I waited till after I was suppose to start. It was clearly positive. I made a doc. appt but they don't want to see me until I am six weeks(June 4th). What do I do in the meantime? How do I know if I am really pregnant? I don't know why but it seems so hard to grasp that I am pregnant. Is that normal? I am also nervous to get to excited. My Mom and sister both miscarried thier first time. They tell me what I am experiencing they experienced during thier healthy and full term pregnacy. How do I calm my fears?

I am 8 weeks pregnant and found out this week that it's identical twins. Every since i told my boyfriend, he has been insistent that he is not ready to be a father and has behaved as if he got a death sentence. He took it to a whole other level yesterday by telling me that if has been his plan to leave the country in the next 2-3 years...news to me, and we've been together for 4 years.

I don't feel like trying to be compassionate for him and the stress and anxiety he's experiencing; frankly, cry me a river, Nancy. Who's gonna be the one screaming "take it out, take it out!" in a few months?

anyway...

Should i cut my losses and be done with this situation (and him) by terminating the pregnancy and save myself from this messed up situation, or should i carry the babies to term? How am I supposed to be able to support two kids all by myself??? And who really feels like fighting with him in child support court?

I went to the hospital at about 6 months and the nurse said that my due was june 5th. and then about a month later I went to my first prenatal visit and the doctor said june 11th but that the date would be a couple weeks off because I was so far along. Which date is most likely right. All of the pregnancy calculators on websites also say June 5.

first, im 38 weeks, and i started having braxton hicks contractions last week(on weds.) and then from what i remember, saturday i went pee and there was alot of thick,stringy off white-yellowish discharge on the t.p., and off and on since that day ive been having it and this morning, there was alot more than ive had so far, and this time it looked like snot from the nose, only thicker.. my braxton hicks are coming sooner and sooner now as well, but i dont know if that has anything to do with it.. ive notice when i cramp too, i go pee and theres more discharge. Ive also been having diarrhea ALOT past 3 weeks now, and its coming more and more frequently..
does anyone know what that discharge could be, and if the BH had anything to do with it? also, with the diarrhea?? this is my first baby, so i dont know what to expect!
