I am now in my 18th week of pregnancy. I am normally a size 16 or 18 in clothes and am having a hard time finding maternity clothes that actually fit me! Most XL maternity clothes just fit me now with little room to spare, so they definitely wouldn't last much longer into my pregnancy! Does anyone know of any good stores or websites to find plus size maternity clothes at a reasonable price? Thanks!

Me and my girlfriend have had sex exactly 2 weeks from today and she has told me that after she peed a couple of times that there was some kind of gooey stuff when she wiped, but she don't have it no more and she has started having pains in her breast. Can anyone tell me if you THINK she is pregnant or not?

has anyone else experienced it... excessively?? Especially around 10-12 weeks??

I have increased two bra sizes already and only gained 2 pounds so I know its not because Im getting fat. This did not happen with my first two like this... I would gain a cup size in the first two trimesters then one towards the end.

I'm very tall (5'10") and quite slim. Every pair of maternity jeans I've tried on looks terrible. It's like the manufacturers think pregnant women automatically explode in the legs and butt.

What are the best maternity pants for tall women who don't want to go baggy?

Thanks so much!

I'm 17 weeks pregnant. I have a call into my Dr's office, but I was just curious to know if anyone else has experienced this and did the feeling turn out to be pre-term labor. Thanks

So, I am sure that I am not pregnant, but the question is still waiting a period :)
My dh had a vasectomy about a year and a half ago. He never went back to check if it worked.
I am now at least a week almost two, late. I did a home test and it came back negative...so I'm probably note.
Just wondering if having sex a lot, like every night to every other night could reverse it?
Please no rude answers, just help please.

My period came last June 07 and last month on May 10. How can I identify my ovulation period and my safe period to have sex? I want to have sex without using any birth control, natural or artificial methods.

Your uterus begins to stretch? I'm 14 weeks now and it feels very tight in there, somewhat painful and very uncomfortable. I have an appointment for the 21st but should I try to get in sooner?

Okay here is the story me and my friend have found out we are both pregnant. My doc has figured my due date to be Jan. 25, 2008. That is going off the first day of my last cylce. 4-20-07. Technically through there calulations I am 7weeks and 5 days prego. With conception happining around the beginning of May (meaning my baby is 5 weeks and 5 days). My friend went to the hospital and was told her baby is 5 weeks and 2 days through an ultra sound. her due date is Feb. 11, 2008. My question is when did she concieve? Shouldn't we be due a couple days apart? The reason this is so touchy is that 3 weeks ago she sleeped with anouther guy (continually) and isn't sure if its her boyfriend baby or the other guy. What is your thought?

I have my 16 week check up today and am always nervous before each exam. Im afraid they wont find the heart beat although I still have all my usual pregnancy symptoms. Anyone else feel like this?

Mine doesn't seem to. He's been getting upset with me over mood swings and things like that, and I really can't help it. I'm 11 weeks pregnant and my hormones are going all crazy... he tells me its just an excuse and now he's talking about leaving me because he'd be better off without having to "deal with all my crap." This is a HUGE amount of stress on me; not only am I pregnant, but we have a one and a half yr old and our 3 yr anniversary is only a few days away. I'm losing it.
I just want to know if it's only my situation, or if there are other women out there who feel like their husbands and boyfriends just don't get it or just don't care.

Do you guys believe in it or not??

My opinion is that you should think b4 you act. If your putting yourself at a risk of getting pregnet, and you do, you just going to have to deal with it.

In my eyes children are the best thing God can give us, besides the holy spirit.

I read that when you begin to dilate you can actually bleed or spot. Is this true in all cases? And do you always have blood or tinges of blood in your mucous plug?

this is my third pregnancy im currently 34 weeks. My first i was induced at 39 weeks and heres comes why i wanna give birth by 40 weeks. My second pregnancy my baby was measuring 40 weeks at 35 weeks and was born at 9lbs 1 ounce..first born was 9.5...this one was 5 1/2 lbs at 32 weeks and measuring 3 weeks ahead. so i know he will be big too. My last pregnancy my doc let me stay pregnant until 41 weeks even though he was ready to come. The whole labor and delivery i had to wear an oxygen mask,if i took it off his heartrate would go down and the cord was around his neck. imn scared to go past 40 weeks again because oif the same thing happening. Would u ask to be induced by 40 weeks if u dont start naturally or would u wait it out? i need some advice pls..thx =)

Well heres my story, i am now 38 weeks last week i was only dilated 1 cm. I had a doctors appointment yesterday and my midwife told me the options that i have. Since my baby is already 8 lbs. and im only 1 cm dilated. She told me that we can wait until next week (39 weeks) and see if i dilated any farther, and if I have then she would discuss with me when to be induced. Unfortanatly if I am still only 1 cm dilated by next week then she said the baby may end up being very close to 9 lbs. My midwife doesnt like to deliver babys 9 or 10 pounds vaginally and if im not dilated farther next week then i may have to have a c- section. I was wondering If i should take Castor Oil this weekend , so my baby is still the same size and not as big as next week. I've heard MANY things about castor oil and many womens veiws on it and their experinces. In my situation do you think its something that I should consider??? I need advice please help??

ok so yesterday was my first dr appt. and i was very excited to go because i had been having cramping and had some questions and i guess i was just expecting more. but it was like nothing. i got there they went over my insurance info, then i met with the nurse she asked me a bunch of questions, did the little wheely thing to tell me my due date, gave me a bunch of papers and magazines, gave me my prenatel vitamins and that was it. i asked her about the cramps and said oh yeah thats just stretching nothing to worry about.
they sent me to the lab for blood and made another appt for 2 weeks.
does that seem a little weird to you? or was your first appt about the same?

I was wondering who had a feeling they were going to have a girl and it indeed was a girl? They say that maternal instincts on your babys gender is right, so just wondering who thought it was going to be a boy or girl and they really were right???? I have a feeling I'm having a boy even though everyone tells me it's going to be a girl. My ultrasound is next Friday, so I am really anxious to know....

2007-06-13 05:45:59 · 17 answers · asked by Anonymous

We really want a little girl, and I do believe that there's a higher power of some sort up there, and everyone's praying for a girl too. But really, as long as the baby is healthy..I will be happy no matter what it is...

But still I can't help but wonder if praying helps......do any of you have any advice like that?

I'm at sixteen weeks and I could find out now, but I don't see the doctor again until July 9th.

me and my bf had unprotcted sex on monday. he didnt come inside me but hes not sure if he precome or not (as they can't feel it..) so im wondering what the chances are that i could be pregnant. i don't really know much about precome but it only contains a small amount of sperm doesn't it??

im just checkin because im a couple of days late on my period and im a fairly regular person. i was 2 weeks late last month and had a bit of a pregnancy scare so i didn't want it to happen again but on monday things just led on and we hadn't seen each other for ages so....im just wondering if i could be pregnant or not or if its just something to do with the last time. i don't know whether to take a test or leave it a few days just to be sure.

i know loads of people have asked this kind of qustion but id just like to hear someone elses opinion. i have talked it over with my bf as well and we were wondering what other people thought.

I went in for my first OB appointment at 9 weeks last Monday and the doctor had trouble finding the heartbeat. She finally said she was able to see it, as did my husband, but I never saw the "flicker". She asked me to schedule another appointment, which ended up being this morning. The ultrasound showed that the baby is about 8 weeks along and has a heartbeat somewhere in the 80s, rather than in the 140+ range like it should be. She also said that the baby is not growing properly and I have a high chance of miscarrying within the next week. She made me an appointment for next week to see if the heart is still beating. She said if I do miscarry, I may or may not have bleeding and cramping. If I do miscarry without bleeding, would that be cause for a D&C? I just wanted to know if anyone has ever dealt with something similar to this. I took it really hard this morning, but I don't know what to expect or how to feel. Thanks....

I have a desk job, a receptionist job, so therefore I sit and relax all day. I get up and move frequently to stretch and walk around, so I have it pretty easy.

I've been having braxton hicks like crazy, but those don't hurt. This morning I've noticed more painful movements in my stomach. Almost bringing me to tears. It only last maybe.. 10 seconds then quit. It's happened twice now about an hour apart. I'm not going to "run to the hospital" because I have no other symptoms. My back's been aching a lot, I've been going to the bathroom A LOT more(due to baby moving downward), tons of fetal movement.. ugh..

Someone who has had a baby before or knows a lot, tell me more on what to expect going into labor. This is my first and I'm afraid I won't know when I'm going! haha =)

I am 11 weeks and I am so emotional today and I don’t know how to snap out of it. I am feeling very overwhelmed and very depressed, like I can’t seem to do anything right! I keep asking myself, if I am this messed up now…what’s gonna happen when the baby comes? I am so financially strapped that it’s causing me to almost have a melt down. Is anyone else going through this? Did you go through a depression state when you were pregnant? How do I snap out of this depression? I can’t stop crying! Help!

I found this article on my homepage and thought it may be interesting for the pregnant women on this board to read. I have seen several questions on here about fish and whether or not it is safe to eat, especially tuna. So here is the article (it isn’t long).
