This is my 19 week ultrasound pic.
The tech said girl but wasn't positive because he couldn't get around the front to see. What do you think?

Im 24 and this is my first child. I went with a doctor that a lot of my friends had went too. So far I have been REALLY unsatisfied with the office.
First appointment, I had to wait 3 hrs just to get in to see the doctor. Then yesturday, at 14 weeks, I FINALLY got my first ultrasound. Well my bladder was too full. After fixing that, she tried again. Turns out I was having a contraction that was holding the baby in place, so I couldnt see the baby real good. The pictures she took were CRAPPY.

Could I have asked her to wait for the contraction to ease up? I felt like it was an "ultrasound drive thru", very rushed. The office just seems really impersonal. Like they have too many patients. This being my first baby its a big deal to me, and I was really hurt by yesturday.

Is this type of experience normal? Or should I consider going somewhere else? Should the doctor have considered the contraction as not being normal at 14 wks?

I had my second sonogram at 17 weeks and the baby was very active. Every time he/she had its legs open, the technician would turn the sonogram camera around to find out what the baby was and the baby would hurry and close its legs. Is there any other way of figuring out the sex of the baby? My fiance and I would really like to know, so we can plan some more.

'Real labour' they last about 30-60 seconds (my midwife just told me on the phone). I am so worried that these will stop! They are PAINFUL and regular... BUT only 20 seconds long.... can that turn into labour???

I got my belly button pierced when I was 15 (i am now 19) and I took the ring out probably 3 months ago because im pregnant. I was wondering if where the piercing was will ever be healed and not look like I still have a hole there, or is it going to be like that even if its closed?

thanks a bunch

When I was pregnant with my first child the prenatals from the obgyn made me sick so I was paying $50 at the health food store every month for "whole food" vitamins that my doc said were 5x better than the ones he prescribed.

Now I'm trying to get pregnant again and went to buy them and they're now $70 for one month. Anyone know a brand thats good??? These ones were "Perfect Prenatal" by new chapter found in health food stores.

I have been a compound tech for a couple of months. I was constantly inhaling drugs such as Progesterone, Testosterone.... I took a pregnancy test twice and they both came out positive. Do you think there was any chemicals that I could have ingested by accident that would give me a false-positive? I quit my job as soon as I found out incase I am pregnant and I didn't want to hurt the baby. I am excited to be pregnant but my first dr. appointment isn't for over a month. Thanks!

I'm four months pregnant and know I need a larger bra, but I'm not sure if I need a larger cup or band size or both. I tried to use a formula I found online to calculate my size -- and it calculated to a 38F and that's just not possible!

Did you need a larger cup or band or both?

Thanks and I apologize for being so naive.

Yesterday i tested around 7pm. And at first it was negative. I dropped it on the bed and went to get something to drink. When i came back, about 2 minutes later i looked and it was a fain horizontal line. and it stayed faint. So i figured it was a positive, now im scared its a evap line... I was gonna test today, because my period was pose to come today (im glad it hasnt arrived yet). But im gonna give it another day or two. Im just scared. But later that night the lines on the positive sign faded.Are they suppose to stay? And do evap lines fade?

By the way i am ttc....
thanks for all the help, and lots of baby dust!!

alright, I don't want everyone to think this is myself were talking about, I know who my babys dad is, but I do want to ask for my friend. she slept with my hubbys friend while she was broke up with her b/f. and then she got back together w/ her b/f, and now she's pregnant. so theres like a 2 week span there between the 2 guys she was with, and she or her doc can't really tell who the dad would be. she don't know when she should have the blood testing done. when do they usually do that, and how long do the results take to come back.. I feel sorry for her, cause she already has a 2 year old, and she's only 19! I'm trying to help her as much as I can, she really don't have family that are there for her to talk to. just trying to be a good friend for her. she's 33 weeks, and I personally think she should start to get things organized and ready for this to be done. any advice for her, other than keep her pants on! I already told her that

I have no clue as to what my baby is and I'm 19 weeks. Before we tried for a baby, I wanted a boy and he wanted a girl. But the moment I knew I was pregnant, I said it was a girl and now he wants a boy. But now, I'm clueless as to what it is but sometimes I think it's a boy because there's this thing I heard that if you crave food, it's a boy or if you crave sweets, it's a girl. (It was true for 3 people I know) Anyway, I've been having crazy dreams, but none about the baby, but last night I had a dream that the baby was a girl, but she was wearing a violet-blue suit. Through the whole dream though, it was a girl. Could it be that it's a girl? (I'd like to know what it is!!)

My husband and I are wanting another child but I'm concerned about the weight gain. When I had my son, I weighed 180 but got down to 140. By not watching my diet and getting in too little exercise, I have manage to get back too close to my pregnancy weight. If we were to conceive, is it possible to gain little or no weight?

I just found out (for sure!) that I am 8 weeks pregnant. My boyfriend & I plan on telling our parents here very soon. Were trying to get a plan set up to tell our parents so maybe they won't freak out on us that terribly bad(i'm 23,he's 22,we both still live at home) My parents leave tomorrow for a 6 day cruise. Some of my friends are telling me to tell my parents before they leave so it will give them more time to think about it away from home while they're 'relaxing' others tell me me & my bf should sit down this weekend while my family is gone & really think through our plans & tell them next week when they return. What would you all do if you were in my shoes? Tell now or later?

Ok, now to explain what that question meant, I am 6 1/2 months pregnant, and the doctor that I have says that I am supposed to weigh a lot more than what I do now, everytime that I go to the prenatal clinic, I end up losing weight instead of gaining weight, and now the doctor says that might be a problem, but I dont take my prenatal vitamins because they make me sick, and besides I am self-conscious about my weight since people have been calling me fat the majority of my life, so what to do about this?
