Pregnancy 31 weeks : My baby sitter is 31 weeks prego and I am 34 weeks prego and she was telling me yesterday that she had her blood draw again and they found that she had antibodies in her blood.

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I went for my first prenatal visit today. I thought I would be walking out of the office gleaming but instead I haven't stopped crying. I thought that I should be 6 weeks today but it is hard to tell because I fell pregnant following a miscarriage in Feb. and did not have a normal cycle period. My doctor does not believe I am 6 weeks because of the size of everything in the u/s. My worry is I took a blood test 3/25 @ 219 HCG and yesterday 3/31 @ 790 HCG. The levels did not double and I per

Pregnancy 31 weeks : Yesterday I posted a question about my doc saying I was 4 weeks behind the weeks that I had come up with. I have 30 weeks and a few days, he has 26 weeks... Big Difference. Now, I have had 2 other kids, and never had any trouble with this kinda thing till now. But he has been blowing off my soft-spoken worry since the begininning this time. I thought that if I went it with the reasons WHY I thought that he was wrong on my weeks he may change it sooooooo.... If my due date is june 5th, then j

Will a test be considered accurate now or would it still have old pregnancy hormones? Thanks

Pregnancy 31 weeks : For the past week, I have had almost an intuitive inkling that I might be pregnant. Symptoms abound everyday - from headaches, to period-like cramps (milder), cramping backache, slight leg cramps, bruised-feeling breasts, "hot flashes", exhaustion, increased appetite, the works. I watched as my normally early/clock-work period passed the 25-31 day-cycle marks..grew excited. That is, until this morning I recognized light pink spotting which turned into a light, red-turning-brownish bleed. It

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I'm 31 weeks pregnant, and have a very minor but irritating yeast infection, I know its a yeast infection because I've had one before, in the beginning of my pregnancy. I want to know if the Azo Yeast pills are safe to take while pregnant because they are so much cheaper than Monistat. I'd call my dr but the office is closed because of Easter. Please let me know, I really don't want to spend the $20+ on a minor yeast infection, my last one was terrible so it didn't matter. lol.

If so, let me know what the heck is going on please. Thanks.

However, I am 2 weeks late for my period if my cycle was 28 days and Im about 1 week late if my cycle was 31 days. I always have eithera 28 day or 31 day cycle. Never shorter and never longer. Im having pregnancy symptoms and the main one I noticed is my breast tenderness and all the bumps around my nipples (sorry for tmi). I never really had the bumps around m

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I am currently 31 weeks pregnant. I have been seeing my doctor through out the whole pregnancy and my last appointment 3 weeks ago she informed me that I will start seeing a midwife every other week from now on. I was surprised because I was never told this was going to happen, and I don't particularly like change, so today I had the appointment with the midwife and I do NOT like her. She spoke to me like I knew absolutely nothing about being pregnant. I just simply don't like the attitude she

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I am a 29 year old 280 pound(a month ago) woman. My stress has rarely been lower. I at one point got up to 320+ pounds due to medications that I no longer take at this point. I had a stroke when I was 9 years old so I cannot take horonal birth control. My husband and I rely totally on condoms and we NEVER forget them. I do low impact arobic exercise 4-5 days a week for 20-40 minutes at a time. I have had nothing change for me in the past couple years let alone months. I have been to d

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I am 31 weeks and had a sharp pain in my back. Only hurt when I moved a certain way though. I also have been getting a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions. Not too strong though. I have been getting slight cramps in my lower abdomen. I alos have been taking medication for my whole pregnancy. What could be going on?

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I am single and i haven't had any sexual experiences since about 2 months into my pregnancy, will this change anything? I was told that sex is really good for pregnancy and i was wondering if i should be doing anything? Also I have been having a really bad pain in my hip. It's right around the joint and it hurts to stand for long periods of time and even to get up from a sitting position. Any help would be appreciated : )

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I've always had a sporadic cycle... between 23 and 31 days... I'm now on day 36... obviously late... I'm having a few minor pregnancy symptoms but really just feel pregnant... I have taken about three tests that I bought online... the test strips that you dip... they all came up negative... but then I took an Early Response midstream test and got a faint pink line... what does this mean?? I thought that the strips I got online were supposed to be more sensitive than any store bought test...

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I had one a few weeks ago vaginally so I was wondering how it would be done at this stage. Also will they be able to determine the sex this soon. With my first pregnancy I had only 1 ultrasound at 31 weeks. Thanks!

Pregnancy 31 weeks : This is my second pregnancy and I am so disgusted that I leak urine constantly. My son is sitting very low and head down for weeks now. With my first pregnancy this never happened. Did this happen to anyone else and do they know why it happens?

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I am 31 weeks pregnant and recently started having sex again. (My husband and I seperated for a few months) The two times we've had sex I have had some serious pain afterwards. Not in my vagina, just the whole general area. It feels swollen and just sore, like I need ice or something. It isn't rough sex at all. I assume it is due to the extra blood flow or something, but was hoping someone could offer some insight. I don't really want to give up sex ;)

Pregnancy 31 weeks : How much leaking is normal in pregnancy? I didn't leak with my first pregnancy so I don't have anything to compare to. I am 31 weeks pregnant and last night woke up with a puddle around my boob (I sleep topless) It wasn't a HUGE amount (like gallons lol) But it was alot more than just a few little drips. How much do you leak? Is it anythign to be worried about.? (I know..call my doctor if I'm worried. Just looking for personal experience)

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I gave birth to my son 5 and 1/2 weeks ago. I had my post partum check up at 5 weeks and I had lost 24 pounds. (I gained 55 with the whole pregnancy) And all though that is more than I expected, I am sure it was all the easy weight, i.e. baby, placenta, water weight, extra blood volume. I still have 31 pounds to lose but I am aiming for 40 just to set an even round number for a goal. Is losing 1 pound a week a realistic goal or should I up it or lower it? I have my brothers wedding at the

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I'm 31 weeks pregnant with my second baby. All morning and into this afternoon I have increasingly uncomfortable with back pain and some cramping. No bleeding, no rupturing membranes, but severe discomfort like none other. I cannot get comfortable standing, sitting, lying on my side, even in the pelvic tilt position (spine curling while on all fours). I've drank water, emptied my bladder, eaten regular meals. I have no idea what else could cause this much discomfort!! Is this just a seco

Pregnancy 31 weeks :

Pregnancy 31 weeks : I'm 31 weeks pregnant and they've been watching very closely the whole time due to high blood pressure. My doctor has sent me for extra ultrasounds, and now I have to have non stress tests done 2 times a week for the remainder of the pregnancy. I'm an elementary school teacher and it is a pretty stressful job. My sister is pushing to get the doctor to put me on bed rest in about 3 weeks because that is what is probably best for baby. What do you guys think, why?

Pregnancy 31 weeks : My little man was always pretty active at very timed times ( i could set a watch by his daily movements) now that im 31 weeks, ive noticed his movements are farther in between, and not as strong as before. they are still pretty strong, but not as much as a "pow" factor that he had around week 25. When i push on my belly he kicks me back, and all my ultrasounds and things show he's completely normal. is slowed movement at this stage in pregnancy normal? Or should i be concerned? Thanks
