So... i'm 35 weeks tomorrow... and all day today i've been feeling sluggish and just plain gross. and i'm wondering if this could be affecting my baby and making him feel the same?

he was moving fine last night, and he was moving fine earlier... but i haven't felt him move in awhile. like, a few hours. and this is his usual time of activity. i keep trying to nudge him to make him move. i've felt a couple nudges back, but nothing like he usually does. just a punch out and then he moved his butt over so i'd stop pushing him. but he usually flails or something.

he started dropping this week, so his head is further down, and i keep getting this weird pain in my left hip. this is my first pregnancy, and its just making me really nervous.

I am TTC and I have found everything in the world of pregnancy is SO vague. So I thought I would throw this question out to see what the majority of you "felt" like when TTC or conceived. Some women say they just knew they were pregnant and felt symptoms almost immediatly, others say it wasn't until 6-8 weeks. I know everyone is different, but I thought a would do a survey if you will...!

It felt like something was stuck in my vagina (like a tampon) so I used a (clean) finger to reach inside a little bit, and felt my cervix. My finger was not even in as far as my second knuckle.

Does this mean anything?

I have been having mild cramping, but no contractions and this is my second pregnancy.

I just found out that I'm 5 weeks pregnant with my first child, and I am ecstatic. I was told for years that I would never be able to conceive, so this is my miracle baby. I've been cramping off and on (mild to moderate) for the past few days. There has been no bleeding (thank God) and other than being ridiculously tired, I feel perfectly fine. Is the cramping normal? My doctor told me it was because it's my ligaments stretching and everything adjusting to the changes, but I'm still very worried. Should I be?

Can you feel every real contraction with your hand? Do they tighten all over the belly every single time? I have what I think are contractions but I can only feel part of my abdomin tightening. I don't feel tightening under my breast bone, but do all below. Especially below the belly button.

Has anyone ever gotten a flu shot when they were pregnant? I heard that all pregnant women should get a flu shot and their children in the family should as well. Our family has never gotten a flu shot before. Has anyone had any reactions from getting the shot. Some people say that you can get the flu, at least some systoms from the shot. Thanks for the opinions!!

What is "Midwife's Formula"?
I know it's some all natural Homeopathic remedy to help you go into labor, but I can't find ANY more information about it on the internet!!
Does it really work??
How well does it work??
Are there any effects on the baby??
What else can you tell me??
P.S. PLEASE BE NICE!!!! I also don't care for "smart remarks" either; thank you!

My sister is 3 cm dialated and 35 weeks and 4 days with her first. She is due Dc. 9 and I was just wondering how long it may take until she gives birth.

I don't want to sound rude or anything, but my husband and I live 9 hours away from home (military) and have kinda planned around my sisters pregnancy as to when we will travel back for my baby shower/going away party since we are moving to England. We plan on leaving next Friday and staying until Dec. 1. We thought we could go before the baby is due since she also lives 13 hours away from family.

I don't want to end up going home and her having the baby and then me being there without my mom, since she will want to be with my sister. My parents haven't seen us since June and we will be moving to England from the USA in late January and won't be able to travel much considering I am pregnant and it cost a lot.

Just wanted some opions on how much longer she may have. Thanks.

This is my second pregnancy and I had the same problem with the first. Last night the leg cramps started up again. You know how you might stretch in your sleep and then WHAM!!!! PAIN as if you have something stabbed into your leg muscle.
I drink lots of water, which I hear is one way to help.....but what else can I do.
Cause when this happen your like paralized with pain, until it settles, and its bad cause your half asleep and can't tell yourself to be careful not to stretch too much to prevent this.

Im 28 wks preggo now with my first.I have been getting mixed views about whether going normal or c section. I have heard that normal is actually really bad after delivery because you are all torn up and it really hurts for atleast 2 weeks and you can't go to the bathroom because it really hurts. C section on the other hand is easy ..atleast the vagina is intact and for the stiches on the stomach doctors give u pain meds so you're fine.Also can you ask for c section delivery prior to labour or insurance won't cover it? Please advise

Has anyone heard of using a vinegar douche before sex to increase the chances of conceiving a girl? I've read that it immobalizes the male sperm making it much more favorable for the female sperm to reach the egg, especially if you do it 2-4 days before ovulation. I've also read though that it can be dangerous to make one and use it because it can cause infection. I saw someone post that you can buy premade vinegar and water douches from Walgreens, CVS Pharmacy or any other drug store and the follow FDA guide lines so they are very safe to use. Does anyone know if this actually works or has anyone tried it themselves?

My neighbor has 2 small girls (ones almost 3, the other almost 1). She's on welfare and her boyfriends beats her at least once a week. She;s not even aloud togo anywhere. She lets her baby cry for hours on end. And to top it all off, she's pregnant again.
Abortion or no abortion. What would you do?

I am the type of girl who grew up wanting a life for my child. I never had one. My mom has 4 kids and 4 baby daddys. I am white catholic girl. I grew up goin to church and a lovely grandmother who did everythin for me. I will never be like my mom. I always wanted to have one baby daddy and one husband. I am emotional being pregnant and what not and I always will regret not being married. But I kno now of days there aint no such thing as no baby daddys but I dont care. Thats what I want. Is it wrong to complain about it to my boyfriend? Or do you think thats pressure? He always says one day it will all work out. I mean I dont think I am wanting to get married b/c of the child I kno I love him and he loves me but is it wrong to even tell him I want to get married?

I am bleeding and considered it my period because of the amount of blood even though we have been trying to conceive. Could it possibly be implantation bleeding or some other form of early pregnancy bleeding? Should I test? if yes then when?

My baby's heartbeat was 152 bpm.

I know those are old wives tells if it's so much it's a girl or a boy.

I want to hear peoples stories though. What was your baby's fetal heartbeat and what did the sex of the baby end up being?

I go on December 13th for my ultrasound. We'll find out the sex then. This is my first baby and I'm very excited about it.
