Pregnancy - July 2007

I am 34 weeks pregnant and we just had a baby shower. We recieved a ton of stuff that we need and we also recieved $95 worth of gift cards. After the shower my fiance decided that he wanted to split the money and buy ourselves something. There is still a ton of stuff to get and we are short on cash. I argued with him till I was practically blue in the face about just using it for the baby since I only have 6 weeks left and we have about $1000 worth of things to buy not including diapers. I am sooo stressed out and he is the kind of guy that waits till the last min. to buy anything. I dont want that kind of stress since it is also possible that I go early. He just says that he will buy the stuff and will have to save up. The gift cards were not ment for us, they were ment for the baby and I dont know what to do. Should I spend it anyway on the baby or should I just do what he wants and split it and spend my half on the baby?

Okay, well I found out I was pregnant about a week ago. Can't exactly remember my LMP, but we think it was around June 20th. So I'm somewhere around 5 weeks. I have one 3 year old child already. I can't get into the doctor for 3 more weeks, so I'm hoping for advice here.
The thing bothering me most is that I keep getting tons of knots in my back, all along my spine-very painful! but I also have pain running down my butt (nerves i'm sure)
Also I am so bloated! I swear I look like I am already 3 months a long! And I can already feel the round ligament pain, and my boobs have already gone up at least 1 size. My stomach muscles actually feel sore when I touch them, like I have done a ton of sit ups.
I'm just wondering if all this changing so fast is normal? i haven't had severe cramps or bleeding, or even morning sickness. This is nothing like my first pregnancy, and I'm finding myself so worried about everything!
Thank you!

Is it normal for my baby to kick alot one day and not so much the next? Sometime I go on these cleaning sprees where I clean all day, Is there anyway that from me moving around so much hurt the baby?

I assumed all this was because my period was coming up and i did have my period. there was some pain. hmm heres the question..could i have been pregnant and lost the baby without knowing it.

alright here is the deal i'm 17 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I live on my own with my Fiance. i have my own car and pay all of my own bills. we were trying for a baby and got pregnant right away. we are so excited. anyways my mother wasn't so thrilled. why i don't know we make more money than she does and don't have nearly her debt we are pretty good off financially. anyways i was talking on the phone with her and she said that my grandma and her were going to have a baby shower and blah blah blah. she has went and bought tons of stuff for us and i thought she had lost her bad attitude. well i was talking to her a couple of days ago and asked her where she thought i should register and she said for what and i said my baby shower. i thought you said that you were having one. and she said oh yeah but i wasn't sure what you were going to do and i was confused and said what are you talking about and then she said nothing i have to go i'll talk to you later. what in the hell is her problem?

I had sex the day after my period without a condom because they say it's a "safe" day. Though there is no real day where it's impossible, I know it's less likely the day after. And earlier that day actually, I had a little brownish spotting from the post period stuff. So technically, it was the 6th day of my period (which I don't usually have) and I don't know if I can count that as the last day of my period or the day after residue. Also, after we had sex I started bleeding a tad more, not from being cut or torn during sex but from more period stuff and it lasted until the next evening (spotting and such). Any insight on if that meant my period was continuing on because of the sex and if I could still get pregnant from what I did? I know this is long but..HELP!

I have no money, really. and i pretty much can't go to a doctor because of transportation and money. I live with my boyfriend and his parents cause i have no where else to go. I heard recently that my boyfriend's father had told someone if i got pregnant he would send me back home, where i have like nowhere to go. The only way for me to stay here would be abortion. but i am strongly against it. I am starting to show a lil now, what else can i do? I don't know how far i am because i can't remember my last period but i know it has been at least 2 months. I don't know it cause i have been too stressed with different things going on. Is there another way to find how far i am?

My daughter is 4 months old, and exclusively nursing. My cycle hasn't returned yet, but I did bleed for three days two months ago. The only symptom I have is a little bit of woosiness. I'm wondering what other some of the signs of pregnancy are while nursing.

I don't like my husband messing with my nipple for anything over a minute. I don't know why, but it just kind of irritates me. My husband thinks somethings wrong with me, and we are discussing children...but I am not sure I will be able to handle breastfeeding. Does anyone out there relate to this, and if so did you breastfeed?

I'm 33 weeks pregnant, and I went to my OB today and my blood pressure was up, my weight was up more than expected (5lbs in 2 weeks), and there was protein in my urine. So of course I'm going through the 24 hour urine test where I have to lug around a jug to pee in ALLLLLLLL day. Woo.

I asked my doctor if a recent tailbone injury might cause these problems as well, and he said the extra weight could be from lack of activity due to injury, and the high blood pressure could be from the pain, but there's still the protein issue. I just have to wait till tomorrow to finish the test and then wait for results. Ugh.

So I was just wanting to hear from women who have had protein in their urine during pregnancy, whether it always turned out to be pre-eclampsia, and what was done to treat the pre-eclampsia, if that was the case. Thanks for your experience!

Okay, so my BF fingered me 3 months ago. I've had 2 periods since, but now my 3rd period is late. Could I be pregnant? I've had two NEGATIVE pregnancy tests just this last week. I'm having a little heartburn, but that's normal for me. I'm also having some vaginal discharge for the last 2 weeks that I'm worried about.

I was wondering if pleasuring myself had anything to do with it because I was pleasuring myself a lot for an entire week about 3 weeks ago. And I feel like it would be really disgusting if my hand had been in sperm before I pleasured myself... so I don't think that happened.

Like I have definitely felt down there before when I think I'm getting my period to find that I'm just wet... not bloody. What's with all this discharge? After to pregnancy tests, could I still be pregnant?

And... in checking for discharge.. if there had been sperm there randomly... could I have gotten pregnant?

I'm just really stressed

My mom suggested that we have a step by step plan for when my water breaks but I just think there are way to many scenarios, like what if my husband's at work or what if I am watching my nephew that day. It seems like more trouble then its worth. I mean we do have the basics. We make sure the keys are in the same spot all the time and my bag is next to the door.Any advice or details about your experience will help. Thanks.
