Im 34 weeks pregnant. I was called today amd put on bed rest for preeclampsia, ans was told I would need to go twice a week to the hospital for stress tests. Do most women wth preeclampsia usually deliver early?

Hi all
I just wanted to see if this was just me or if all women experienced it.

I work in a male orientated office, I am the only female.
Since I fell pregnant, I have felt like a burden on the business. (Women are more of a risk when it comes to employment I know)
We all have our legal rights i.e maternity leave and antenatal classes. But I feel like its just too much hassle for them.
I dont get my lunch hours when I am supposed to.
I have been really poorly with sickness and have always been in and never had a day off with it which I feel is good.

Its just making me think twice about coming back after the baby?

Its making me feel really down and upset and in earlier stages i considered an abortion due to the way work made me feel.

Any advice or help?

im 8wks although been told 3times ive miscarried and even been through surgery for a suspected eptopic, which wasnt!my HCG levels have been rising at a low 60% which they wernt happy about. after the op, they dropped from 850 to 590.they said it now looks like im miscarrying and had more done today to see if they are dropping as they should. Instead of dropping, finact they've gone up slightly to 646. i know this is not 'normal' and they want to dissolve any tissue that could be in my body...but somethings still telling me to hold on. these levels at 8wks are really not good, but i cant let go everytime i get a positive.please, can someone help! x

Can a pregnancy test come up negative and you still be pregnant? I haven't had my period in a month and a half. I do have a doctor's appt but not til next week.

I have been feeling nauseous(sp) and haven't been able to drink anything but water. I've been allittle tired but no noticable drastic change.

Have you ever tried the intelligender test to find out the sex of your baby?? My sister ordered me one, and within 5 minutes, it turned smoky green, so ITS A BOY!!! I was skeptical about it at first, but it was awesome. Anyone else have any success stories??

13 weeks here! Just wondering when everyone thinks the OBGYN will start talking about my gender-ultrasound. My next app. is right when I turn 15 weeks. It's also my first baby, so when can I expect to start actually looking like I'm pregnant!! Ha ha. I'm starting on my 4th month of flat tummy, except for a little bump : ]

I have been trying to conceive.
I got a faint positive Nov 14th it was very thin and it was blue.
But got my period the next day.
Now its Dec 5th, I've taken 3 more tests since, because I still felt like i was on my period after it had stopped. Im still cramping, have headaches alot, im having mood swings, and cravings, and extra discharge with no odor. All the tests I took were positive but faint a thin like pencil thin the line across was thick, the line going up was thin, but it was blue. Could it be an evaporation line? Although it was there before 10 minutes, but it showed more clearly after that. I am going to go to the doctors really soon, The hubby and I are so happy if this is true. My next period Is in 7 days. If I am I think im about 7 weeks.
thank you

Before I got pregnant, we had really nice relationship. But with all that hormones occuping my brain, I now can't stand him. He drives me crazy, no matter what he is doing. Just idea of him kissing me gross me out. Is it going to go away? I am 21 weeks and I though it would be better after first trimester, but it is worse.

How do you cope?

Can your moods really efect your baby if your pregnant? If I am so sad sometimes because I have a lot going on does this mean I am going to have a sad baby ?

I've asked questions about this a few times....sorry....
but this is a NEW question.....

I've been having lots of cramping...just like period cramps (I get BAD cramps) and now I'm bleeding normal period colour.....about a tablespoon or 2 yesterday....it seems to be getting heavier I'm pretty sure I'm miscarrying....

but the Question....

If I start heavy bleeding.....I have no sick day left at work and if I leave I will get fired. So what can I do? Lose my job?....
Even with a doctors note they will fire me....

I am 1o weeks pregnant and I work full time and my husband and I run a dance school and dance company. So my schedule is work 7:00-3:00 and dance rehearsal and 4:30pm-8:00pm on mon, tue, wed and fri our schedule was working fine because we are building something and I felt really positive about that. We want our dance school to be our main source of income. Now that I pregnant this schedule is really getting hard I spoke to my husband yesterday about quitting my job and I would just work on the business so it could come along faster. We got into a big argument because I make majority of the money and he feels like if I quit I will be making our family struggle on purpose and he got very upset. He also said that people have been working pregnant for years and I should be stronger that that and I am diverting from our plan which was for me to work and after the baby take off. He really made me feel bad he said he has the same schedule as me and he is able to make it. He is not pregnant. After our conversation yesterday I am going to stay at work but am I selfish for asking to stop working he made me feel so bad he said he is trying his best and he is tired and has the same schedule as me but he is making it work. He also said people would love to just stay home and work on a business but it is not reality. I realize all these things but I still feel so tired some days I can barley concrete. Was I wrong? {Please no hurtful answers yesterday was hurtful enough I can’t take any more mean things said}

Ok I've been reading alot of questions lately regarding epidurals and drug free labors. And I've noticed alot of comments made to women that are considering drug free births are rather nasty and uncalled for.
" Your not going to win some mother of the year award/medal" (because they choose to not have drugs) or
" You wont be a better mother just because you dont have drugs"

Which I personally think is rather nasty and mean. If someone chooses to have a drug fre birth that is their choice. And obviously they dont expect any medal or award, but have their own reasons for opting for no drugs.
So why they uncalled for comments? Or am I just taking it the wrong way and over reacting?

I dont think any better or any worse of any woman whether she had a drug free birth or had every drug under the sun. We all went through pregnancy and labor to have the precious gifts at the end. So what difference does it make how you handled labor.
