Pregnancy - September 2007

When I first met him I knew he was married because he told me but that didn't keep us from having sex. We went our own ways he is back at home with his wife and kid and I am here back to home too...but only this time I am pregnant and I don't know how to tell him. I am afraid of rejection. How do I handle this personal matter?

I have not had a period in four months and I don't know if I am pregnant or if I am just stressing about it causing me to have symptoms like I am pregnant. My last period was in May and my boobs are getting bigger. I know , I am going to the doctors appointment next monday.

What could cause a woman not to have a period for four months besides pregnancy?
She is always regular, and not on any type of birth control, doesn't use protection. could stress cause a period to disappear for four or five months?
Healthy person, was regular until we started having sex and last period was May, not underweight or overweight.

I have started having contractions like 5 or 6 times a day that feel like real contractions. They start in my back and end in the front...My mid back section is also really sore (maybe the baby is moving or something) I know I am not in labor or anything, I am just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this!! I guess I am just complaining lol!

So..I'm only 17 years old...and there's a SLIM chance that I COULD be pregnant. i'm a week and a half late for my period, but that really doesn't mean anything. If I don't start here within the next week, then I'm going to talk with my sister and have her buy me a pregnancy test..
Never in my life would I have thought that I would even consider getting an abortion...But I've been thinking really hard these last couple of days, and I know that I'm really not ready to be a teenage mother...I want to be able to finish high school, maybe even go to college...I still want to be able to go out and maybe even party with my friends, have a good time..If I were to keep this baby, I wouldn't have very much to support it. Just me, and my family, And MAYBE the babys dad (Who doesn't have a very steady job, blows all his money on either drugs or alcohol, and I'm not very sure if I'm going to want to spend the rest of my life with him in it) I think I sound selfish, because all the reasons are.....

I'm not sure if what I just felt was a contraction. (I am 36 weeks) My whole stomach was real tight from right under my breastbone all the way down to under my belly button. I couldn't even poke it. It felt like the baby moving but my stomach didnt shift the way it does when the baby has moved before. Looking for any positive feedback others can give :-)

I really want to have a natural birth, but I'm in a bit of a difficult situation. I was getting my insurance through my mother because my job does not provide insurance. She just got laid off last week, and her severance package lasts up until the 13th of November. I am due the 15th of November. I am going to try all those natural methods of induction before the 13th, of course; nipple stimulation, red raspberry leaf tea, evening primrose oil, etc., but theres still a good chance I won't go into labor by the 13th. If I need to induce with pitocin, is it true it hurts more than going into labor naturally?
I would prefer not to strip membranes if it can be avoided, so I can labor in the jacuzzi tubs my hospital offers in every room. And I know epidural is available, but I really want to go natural without pain meds. I think that is the birth experience that will make me happiest. I have nothing against those who chose pain relief, but I just don't think its for me. Thanks!

this sounds really stupid because i know labor hurts, but i'm really scared of the doctors doing things to me that they have to and it hurting. (ie: stripping cervix/membranes, an internal monitor, etc). i'm not really scared of labor pains/contractions... i'm scared of having to endure pain from what doctors will do.

what can i do to relax? i keep thinking about having to get induced and worrying about how i've read that is more painful than natural labor and maybe i could elect to have a c-sec instead of being induced... but i might not have my facts straight about which is "better". is a c-sec less stressful for the baby? it is done fairly quickly vs. induced labor can be hours and hours long.

ok. i was just wondering. i can't deal with a lot of pain. and i know when i had my miscarriage a few months back they gave me a Anesthesia, and got the baby out of me while i was sleeping. ( Natural, not with a c-section ) i was almost 4mths then. i was wondering, if everything goes ok while im going into labor, could i get a Anesthesia, and they get the baby out of my natural like they got the baby out of me when i had a miscarriage? .. cause i DO NOT want a c-section. and im tryin to find a method that i want have to deal with too much pain. hopefully this makes sense. if not i'll try to explain a little better! thanks.

I'm around 7-10 weeks preg. and the problem is that even if I want to keep my baby, I just cant and NO, I don't consider adoption, in that case I would keep the baby myself). Well I'm 21 and the father is 31, but he's not ready because he lost his job, his mom passed away not long ago, and his depressed, etc. and he told me straight out that I would be the main one to care for the baby if I decide to keep it, and he will just be my friend because he cannot be with me. Also, I'm working and going to school, and my parents would be very upset if I let them know about what's going on. I'm just confused because I know I will feel bad if I have an abortion but I just don't know if I will be able to handle the responsibility of raising a child
9plus I already have two large dogs and it's hard to keep them well maintained because of the expenses.) Today I will have another talk with the "father" but I don't know what I should tell him, he knows I am confused,..it's just very hard...

I just found out about 2 weeks ago that I am pregnant.
I believe I am about a month. I think I am starting to show already but I think it’s the gas I have and the bloating. My stomach is sore as well. Is that normal?
I have been reading a lot of things on the
Internet, about smoking since I am a smoker. When I found out I was
Pregnant I cut down to 2 cigarettes a day. Compared to when I would
Smoke a pack a day. I am really trying to quit but it’s hard.
I read this morning on the internet that if you’re a smoker and you quit
In the first trimester there could be a chance of a miscarriage. Then I read
If you continue to smoke your baby could have a lot of problems once
It’s born. So here I am stressing over this because I don’t know what to do.
This is my first child and I don’t want to screw it up but I need some help here
I don’t want to be 5 months and still smoking nor do I want to risk anything.
So I need so

I am 14 weeks 2 days pregnant, and just a few times in this past week, I have felt a slight cramp in my abdomen, followed by the sensation that I was tightening up or that my abdomen was getting hard. I researched Braxton Hicks online, and it sounds similar, but I thought those only occured later in pregnancy? Is it common for BH contractions to occur in the early second trimester? Could they be a problem if they are happening so early?

My doctor briefly discussed this, saying he should take a blood test to be certain and that we might have complications. Can anyone explain this better? If we are both negative will we be fine? Or does the O vs. A have cause for concern?? I read articles but can't find the answer I am looking for!
