Answer 1

I had no idea I was pregnant for the first month and a half because I had no symptoms, and by the time I had found out, I had already had a few nights out on the town drinking with friends. I have a few friends who this has happened to also. As soon as I found out though, I stopped all alcoholic drinking! So far, my baby has been healthy and measuring perfectly normal. However, too much drinking, smoking and drugs, can almost certainly cause a miscarriage. If you think you even MIGHT be pregnant, please stop!

Answer 2

I received Prego Took those at living tests approximately 6 occasions and None of them demonstrated that I was Prego (i even took them within the morning similar to the discipline stated on the grounds that that's while the hormone is the very great degree within the body) It would take a even as for the hormone to show, every person is distinct, And it took approximately two months to determine what used to be as soon as taking place to me I had a moderate interval that lasted a couple days, So I belief I was adequate.....Despite the truth that I nonetheless Felt weird, i could not describe what used to be as soon as flawed with me, I had a couple of of what you recounted, I comfortably knew anything wasn't correct I sooner or later went into the doctor they usually established me (they're equipped to deliver you a Blood or Urine scan) And it became up constructive i would Go into the Gyno and notice what's rather taking place to you it is feasible to have mild bleeding or heavy even if you are Prego I had Heavy Bleeding given that I had a few extreme disorders that Ended up in an Emergency C-segment and virtually useless little one by the point I had the baby there would be a concern with the Placenta inflicting the bleeding GO SEE A doctor OR GYNO ASAP If you're no longer Prego, It probably and sickness , STI, or it probably a pregnancy that has began within the falacion tubes, that wishes to be operated on in any other case your could die. If it grows too massive, the Tube will bust inflicting severe discomfort and blood loss, causing you to go into the ER and they'll do an on the spot Operation to get rid of and hopefully repair the damage (on the way to easiest be if it went untreated and Xpolded) If it may be been 7 wks, determine it out fast! Something unhealthy would as a substitute occur to you

Answer 3

The baby won't necessarily die, but there is an increased chance for complications with the child. Smoking while pregnant increases your risk for miscarriage, still-birth, low birth weight, SIDS, etc.

Alcohol facts:

- "We have known for a long time that drinking heavily during pregnancy could lead to major impairments in growth, behavior, and cognitive function in children," (Jennifer Willford, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine)

- Clinically, three areas are affected: (1) prenatal and/or postnatal growth retardation (e.g. infants shorter in length and less in weight); (2) Central Nervous System (CNS) damage such as permanent and irreversible brain damage, learning and behavioral disorders, deficits in memory and attention, hyperactivity, speech and language delays, poor coordination; (3) head and facial abnormalities (e.g. small head circumference and abnormally small eyes). 3
After conception, between weeks 4-8, a transitory period from the embryonic to the fetal stage is important as that is a time of great vulnerability to the toxic effects of alcohol.

- In the embryonic stage: the third postconception week of human pregnancy is considered the critical period for teratogenic actions of alcohol to produce the most severe and characteristic features of FAS. Drinking an average of 3 drinks/daily during the period following conception and just before pregnancy is confirmed, increases the risk of having a FAS child.

- The nervous system develops in the first 8 weeks, making the most damaging effects result in this period. Although damage to the brain may occur in the last trimester as well, vulnerability to brain damage is highest at 15-25 days. 18

- There are also two periods of rapid brain growth in the 3rd month and from the 6th month to after birth. The CNS, heart, eyes, legs, arms, teeth, ears, palate, external genitalia are vulnerable to alcohol in the first trimester.

Answer 4

The baby may be born with health problems. So, the earlier she stop drinking and smoking the better for the baby.

Answer 5

Probably not, but it does increase her chances for a miscarriage. You should stop drinking and smoking before you even try to get pregnant. If you aren't trying, then use protection.

Answer 6

Well if you think your pregnant and you smoke and drink I would stop until I knew I wasn't.
