Pregnancy - November 2007

i think that abortion should be illegal because if someone dont want a kid then they shouldnt have opened there legs and or use a condom or use birthcontrol....and if the childs got a medical problem that is when they could do it buit i am still against it.....BUT THAT IS MY OPINION!!!

I am at 28 weeks of pregnancy. I am going to be doing my glucose test tomorrow. I was wondering why they do this test? Does it make a difference if the results come out possitive. I am getting tired of all of these test because I keep coming up high and then nothing. So far they thought my baby had downs, cystic fibrosis and irreglar heartbeat. I have had very many test done and they call came out to be negative. (I even had a 1 in 15 chance of downs :0() I don't know if I can handle another test coming up positive and then find out everything is ok. Do they require you to have this test done?

so I have run out of my stretch mark lotion and don't have $ at the moment to buy more.. not even palmers.. maybe in a few days I can.. but I was wondering if I can use my regular lotion in the meantime that has nothing in it that stretch mark lotion has.. it is lotion meant for high moisturizing for dry skin.. I am worried that if I use it somehow it would have the opposite effect of cocoa butter? like tightening my skin instead of promoting stretching? I may be paranoid, but would it be better than nothing? or should I wait until I can buy cocoa butter?
I am 36 weeks and don't have stretch marks yet, so I am hoping to prevent them as much as possible. *cross my fingers*
what would you do?

So my husband has decided that we are not going to have any more sex til after our baby comes. This week is my 30th week and he says now that i'm soooo big and so far along he no longer feels comfortable making love to me. He says the last 2 or 3 times after making love he stays awake wondering and worrying what harm he could be doing to me and our unborn son. Is he crazy or is it just me?! I want to have sex and I miss it very much! Has anyone else's husband/boyfriend got this crazy idea in his head? I'm glad he's concerned and all but i'm feeling great,the doctor says the baby is doing great and i'm not high risk so whats the big deal!?

This doctor was recommended to me by a friend... I have been seeing him since i was about 9 weeks or so... I am now 28 weeks 4 days and up until yesterday I had a very unpleasant experience with him... He was very preferencial towards patients his ethnic background... I'm not racist... I love all people... I just really felt that he was so much more patient with them than with me... The majority of his patients are of his ethnic background... This had been my 4th ultrasound trying to determine the sex of the baby and everytime he tries he's just very impatient with me... He doesn't even tell me how much my baby is measuring or anything of the sort... He said it was "unclear" and I asked why... If the baby was too small or if the baby was not positioned correctly... He said "Cause you're fat" I was in shock... I asked when it would be clear and he said "When you lose fat" and he laughed... He made me cry!!! I guess my ? is... Is it too late to switch doctor's???

Hey ladies, I'm pregnant with my first baby and I'm having an amniocentesis done in a few weeks. (His second cousin has Downs.) I'm pretty tolerant when it comes to pain but this amnio business sounds pretty painful. What's everybody's opinion?

I am 34 weeks and my baby is in the Transverse position ( sideways ) and she has been this entire time. I know she has plenty of time to move, but I am trying to get as prepared as possible in case she doesnt move. I have read that they may try an external version to turn the baby but I am concerned with the risks. what type of risk are there and is there more of a risk since I have an Anterior Placenta ( in front) ? I really dont want to have a c-section but I dont have that choice. I am really hoping she will turn on her own. I have been doing pelvic tilts and walking on all fours ect.. to turn her so hopefully that will help. I have 2 weeks until they start to plan what to do if she is still Transverse.. Any input on the risk would greatly help ! Aslo I have known a couple people who had a trasverse baby that was born with clubbed feet, so now i am also concerned about that... TIA !!

Okay, Now I had a miscarriage back in January. But I'm due with a new baby any time now. I was wondering are labor contractions worse or the same as miscarriage contractions? I was 13 weeks when I miscarried and suffered some very severe pain. Experience only please I don't want guesses. Thanks :)

okay, so i'm on a *super* tight budget trying to save money to take time off work after the baby is born... (i only get fmla--12 wks unpaid, and i don't have sick days, Aflac, vacation, and i'm slightly over the income limits for WIC--so i don't qualify for that either).

i'm supposed to limit my sodium somewhat (which definitely makes Ramen out of the question!!).

i've only got about $25-$40 a week to spend on groceries for myself & my husband, and i'm fairly handy in the kitchen.

i need some things high in protein, especially. and things to grab for my 10 hr work days (i eat breakfast & lunch at work, usually, and a snack). also some quick & easy dinners (that can be sans veggies for the hubby).

so, got any inexpensive food ideas that are healthy for a woman almost in her 3rd trimester, and easy?

thanks a lot!!

freakin punch his lights out today for no particular reason, his existence is just annoying me. I could probably sit down and find a reason but i am not, just chocking it up to pregnancy. I am just having a really bad day for no apparent reason and i just want to crawl under my desk and cry. My poor hubby is catching the brunt of it because he is the only person i can yell at. ANY OTHER PREGNANT LADIES HAVING A BAD DAY AND WANT TO VENT?

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and my Dr. has diagnosed me with high blood pressure. I have had a history of anxiety and panic attacks in the past, but never a problem with blood pressure. My main concern is that I have at home BP monitor and my blood pressure is fine at home, at the family dr, and everywhere else I go. I've tried to tell my Dr. that I have normal readings everywhere but her office but she seems to ignore that and has put me on BP medication. HAs anyone else ever dealt with this and what did you do? I've really been considering going back to the midwife that delivered my first child, although over an hour drive to get there, but I'm not even sure if she'll take me if my current Dr. has considered me "high risk" with the blood pressure ordeal! Any advice on this would be great as I'm stressed to the max!

My bf took a dna test for a baby that might be his yesterday. This baby was concieved before we got together. We have a baby of our own also. The girl slept with my bf and another guy in one cycle. But accordingto the dates that the doctors gave her she said that it is my bf baby. I had a dream the other night that he got the results and the baby wasnt his and we were both happy. Why would I have these dreams and is it selfish for me to get mad if the baby is his.

I'm 2cm dilated, I'm having contractions off and on. This morning I woke up with a little bloody discharge and I'm having some contractions but not strong nor regular. How long do you guys think I will go into labor? This is my 2nd child, with my first I was induced so I don't know what to expect if I go into labor on my own without the induction.

I have been taking the Robitussin DM my doctor said I could take but it doesn't work all that great. I am now on my second course of antibiotics because twice it has gotten so bad that I was coughing up infectious looking stuff. I think it may be bronchitis because I have had it for over a month but there isnt' really much they can let you take. I am 20 weeks and am just wondering if there is anything else anyone knows of that I could ask my doctor about. Thanks

just want a few opinions really - it's early days but we have names in mind.....for a boy we have picked Bernard Thomas (might call him Barney)....and for a girl Isabella Marion Martha...obviously in both cases the child will be called by the first name only! What you think?
