Pregnancy - December 2007

I have a midwife and she doesn't feel as though checking the cervix is necessary... Because she says the baby is going to come whenever it wants to, and you can stay 2 centimeters dialated for a month..(which I completely understand her logic in it)... However, I am curious to see if my body is doing anything yet... but then again I don't want to get disappointed by being dialated to 2 for a month.... I have a strep b test in 2 weeks....I was thinking about having my midwife check then. What are your thoughts? I will be 37 weeks at my next visit....I have been feeling this prickly burning stabbing feeling in my cervix and she says it is probably my cervix softening and or/ the way the baby is sitting......so maybe my body is getting close!!!!

Also I know what dilating is, but what does effaced mean and + station?

I realize every doctor is different but generally when do you start checking your cervix to see if you are dialated.

I have been checked at earlier weeks but just because I was having pain.

I want to know when start checking at every visit.

I could be pregnant, but I'm not sure. when i had sex, i was having cramps at the time and i was pmsing. I hadn't started my period though. We did not use a condom and he did ejaculate. Sorry if this is blunt, but i'm worried because im only 17. the thing is, that was last friday and i'm still having cramps and i have sore breasts. Could i be pregnant because my period has never done this before?? Please help.

I have a problem..Back in Oct, I had unpretected sex with my boy friend, dumb decision no offense taken. But i did pregnancy tests that came out negative and visited a clinic two months after..everything was negative.Ive also had my periods. A few weeks ago(dec 6) we did it again but we were smart and used pretection, i was fine..then last saturday(dec 15) we did it protective, nothing broke both times..and i had bad cramping after but no bleeding. The other day i think yesterday i had a little bleeding but today my chest is sore
..what could it be? Arent condoms safe? My friend told me that it could be because of the cold weather, because only one side of my chest hurts.help? what do you think?

Please all of you why is it you got as far as to have unprotected sex and pottentially get pregnant without knowing the signs of pregnancy?

Did you not sex education in school? From your families? Do you have any ideas how society, schools, and parents can do a better job?

This greatly concerns me. It seams that even in the Victorian era they were better educated about sex and pregnancy then many people are now.

I had anal sex on the ninth day of my cycle, three days before I stopped bleeding. Was I fertile? Sperm doesn't travel all the way through my vagine, right?

Thanks a lot!!

My wife being 10 weeks pregnant began noticing some light spotting, I mean very light. the next morning, it had increased substansually and feeling some cramping. We took her to her OBGYN. Now note, we still owe $240 for recent visits. We are not disputing or trying to hide from paying it. We are paying on it, I guess not as fast as he wants because we live on a tight budget. When I got her to the doctor's office, he refused to see her because we owed the amount and made it clear that he wouldn't until the balance was paid. "that we could go to the emergency room" Being the symptoms my wife is having is signs of a miscarriage, he showed no concern of my wife's condition or for the child she is carrying. We did go the the ER and found out everything is fine. It was just the principle of he refused to see her due the the current circumstances. Im considering writing a complaint to the state medical review board. It felt like the money was more important

I was takin Modicon for a year or two, and then my insurance didnt cover the place I was getting it from anymore, so I had to go to another place. They had Modicon but only in generic. I started them after my next period. Was that the right time to start them? And is there any chance I could get pregnant while switching from one to the other? PLEASE HELP!

I'm fifteen young, but do able.
hes eighteen and is going in to the army.
do you think a planned teen pregnancy is completely horrible?
i know he wouldn't leave me, but there's always the chance that he could.
my parents wouldnt be happy but would deal with it and help me out.
he has a steady job&&i could get one.
i think seventeen is a good age, but if he goes to iraq we both want kids so incase anything happens to him, and i want kids young anyway. i checked and my school has an alternative program for pregnant teens and can return to school after.
do you guys think it could work if we had a baby?
I know its not a smalleral and itll change my life forever but if he goes to Iraq its what we both want. and were going to get married when I turn eighteen.

My period was due December 3rd. I took a test December 5th or 6th and it was a negative. I took a test yesterday evening after work and thought it was a negative so I wrapped it in toilet paper, put it in my desk drawer( to discard it in a trash can other than one someone might see it) and then looked at it again maybe 10-15 minutes later and it was a postive. Today I went to a Womens Health Center and it was a negative. The lady didnt even have me wait more 2 minutes, it says to wait 4 minutes on the direction thing there, and it said negative, so she wants me to come back Thursday with a first morning sample.
Do you think I'm pregnant? Could it have just not been enough HGc? I've been peeing like every hour or so all day, but I held it for an hour before the test today.. sigh. This is so stressful! My boobs are so sore! I'm so emotional! I won't allow any other excuse but being pregnant for this nonsense!
