Pregnancy - May 2007

i'm 18 weeks and 5 days... still stretch mark-free, BUT i know how much growing my belly will be doing in the next couple months... today i'm buying a bathing suit (because it is FREAKING hot!) and debating on whether or not i should get a bikini... seems like the logical choice, but definitely not if i'm going to get all marked up this summer, you know? so i guess really my question is what kind of bathing suit should i get...? and if i get a bikini, will Vitamin E oil and Vitamin E lotion keep the purple nasties away?? please help... merci, beaucoup!

My doctor has talked to me about induction at 37 weeks because of my fainting spells so far my answer has been no because I am afraid it will turn out like the induction with my first child lasting over 25 hours and I am afraid the due date maybe incorrect and the baby might come early but she has told me because of the early ultrasound at 12 weeks that is very doubtful! but yesterday I had a scare, my husband had found me face down on the bathroom floor breathing rapidly but not responding for about 4 minutes so he called for help and i was taking by ambulance to the closest hospital my family and children where all very upset, they checked to make sure the baby was ok, baby is fine other then low blood pressure and needing oxygen for a few hours I am fine I guess what I am asking is are fainting spells a good reason to induce so early?

I am 28 weeks and having a lot of braxton hicks ( I think). They don't go around my entire stomache just at the bottom. Has anyone experienced this?

I know the moon has an affect on women (and water) but I've heard that more women go into labour on or around a full moon - or at least their waters break and labour has to be induced (only full term women I think). Does anyone know if thats true? I think I'm just clinging to straws here but I'm due tomorro and theres a full moon tonight so I guess I'm just hoping I wont go too far overdue.

I will be 38 next week. The results of my first trimester screening estimate a 1 in 800 chance of having a child with down syndrome. I was satisfied with those results however when I saw the doctor yesterday I didnt get the warm and fuzzy reassurance from him. He reminded me that it was just a screening and asked if I wanted to do the amnio. Would you be satisfied with those odds?

I am 41 weeks prego and the doctor told me to have a lot of sex this weekend before my next appointment on Monday to speed up rippening of cervix. The problem is that I am single. She said I would probably need to be induced sometime next week. I am scared. I spent all last night reading horror stories of inductions. I have been walking and swimming like crazy to see if that helps, but it hasn't. What else can I do before Monday?

Has anyone who has ever been pregnant had an increase in discharge? And I'm not being nasty but did it ever have a kind of sweet smell?

She had her frontal lobe removed, but she is just normal still. No change. My question is when she goes into labor, will this cause stress on her brain? She is 35 weeks pregnant now.

I have had a scan and an NT scan, both of which are fine. However I have not had any appointment for 'me' to take blood, check urine etc. Maybe this is normal but I would appreciate advice from mums please. I realise it will change hospital to hospital, but when did you receive your first hospital appointment to check on your welfare?

The classic hehehe. Basically I could be and I don't want it full stop. The father has just dumped me, I'm scared I mean should I tell him? Should I involve him in what I do? He said to me he'd leave me if I fell pregnant anyway. But if I were to go through a abortion I'd want him there, if only for the support. But, would this wreck our friendship? Or should I just have the abortion and not tell people? Or do you have to tell due to post abortion risks or something? Here's hoping I'm not and I'm just late!!!!

Well i had my 12 wk scan yesterday, with a huge shock of finding out their was nothing there. ive had no heavy bleeding or no pain. when i was around 3wks pregnant i had a little spotting!! so they gave me another blood test at the hospital which came back positive, Could i have miscarried, and be pregnant again, but not so far gone they cant see anything yet. I have to go back on Monday for another test and scan... or could this be an ectopic pregnancy... thanks G
