Pregnancy 36 weeks : I'm not sure this is pregnancy related since I've been having this for a few months now. It's not the baby's feet or anything (this is my 2nd pregnancy and I know how painful that is), it's totally different. I called the nurse this morning since it's more of a deep pain today. It's at the top of my ribs on my right side. The pain is dull, there's a pins and needles sensation and now my skin burns like a sun burn around that area (that's new today). The nurse told me to take Benadryl? I though

Pregnancy 36 weeks : I am 37 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby.. I was induced with my first two due to their size and my lack of progressing into labor... At my appointment last week (36 weeks) my doctor and I were both suprised that I was 3 cm dilated, baby was still high up and I was NOT effaced.

Also my blood pressure was high, which is very abnorm

Pregnancy 36 weeks : It would not be ideal to give birth at 36 weeks or even 37. The longer the baby stays inside the better even though full term is 38 weeks. Why is sex allowed then, is it a myth that it brings on labor? ban is just a strict word.. substitute warned against intercourse

She says she's gained 20 pounds so far and she just turned 36 weeks today(she's due Apr.25th). She's very scared and paranoid, and I think the weight gain is ok.

She said that the doctor says everything is okay and that the baby is currently almo

Pregnancy 36 weeks : Ok, My friend smoked weed, drank and took pain pills, took BC's throughout her pregnancy. She thought she was going into labor at 34 wks, so they gave her a shot to make the babys lungs n stuff mature faster. She ended up not going into labor then. 2 weeks later, her blood pressure shot up and she was induced at 36 weeks. He checked out healthy and was able to go home. Well exactly on his 6 week mark, my friend (who she let the baby sleep with her on a pillow in her arms) said she woke up at a

Pregnancy 36 weeks : I am currently at a 36 A size right now, at 32 weeks pregnant. I had bought a 36 B bra earlier in the pregnancy, because everyone told me I would increase in size. Unfortunately, I am still at an A cup. For those of you with experience, what size nursing bra do you think I should buy. I know my breasts will increase in size after the baby's born, but I have no idea how much! I've noticed a lot of nursing bras start at the C cup size. Any thoughts or experiences? Advice? I tried looking to see

Pregnancy 36 weeks : Yes I love the fact that Iâ??m able to experience this amazing gift of pregnancy, however, Iâ??m 36 weeksâ?¦ and Iâ??m done! Iâ??m ready for her to be out and in my armsâ?¦ but more importantly out! I feel great, to be honest, considering all the horror stories that I hear all the time, but Iâ??m ready to sleep on my stomach/back, walk normal, bend, etc. etc. etc. Are there any other end-of-3rd-trimester mommies out there that feel the same way?

Pregnancy 36 weeks : I have heard that the doctor checking for dilation, even without doing the regular membrane sweep, can help dislodge the mucus plug and break your water... Is this true even if you are not effaced and have not started to dilate at all????? I am 36 weeks with twins and am more than ready. He says the babies are healthy now too.... He checked me today because I have been cramping for two days but I haven't even started to dilate. What can get things going? and will him checking me possibly get

Pregnancy 36 weeks : I am (Or hope I am) 6 weeks pregnant. I am usually spot on 28 day cycle, and when I didn't get my period, tested myself, and got a positive pregnancy test result. Then at day 36 of my cycle, started bleeding. I told midwife/GP they told me to wait it out. It seemed like a normal period to me. Could I have miscarried and not known it? They told me to look for any tissue, but I didn't seem to pass any, as far as I know. Is it possible I could have miscarried without knowing it? I didn't have any

Pregnancy 36 weeks : I'm 36 weeks along, and my doctor called and said I have gestational diabetes (it a long story, mostly my fault, as to why it took so long to be diagnosed). Anyway, she said to cut down sugars and carbs, and to try to follow a diet plan for gestational diabetes (I don't need insulin injections).... it's too far along in my pregnancy to get me to a dietician (takes about a month to get in to see one here), so if anyone has gestational diabetes, could you let me know what kind of things are okay

Pregnancy 36 weeks : At our first ultrasound of our now 9 month old baby, they noticed his kidneys were very dilated. So they sent us to a specialist, and I had to go there for ultrasounds every 2 weeks the rest of the pregnancy to keep an eye on things. Then he eventually decided we should induce at 36 weeks to get him to a pediatric urologist sooner rather than later. I've had people tell me it's actually nothing to worry about, kidney issues are diagnosed with boys all the time, and they're always fine. That's

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 36 weeks : For a few weeks now every morning I have painful bowel cramps in the morning with a feeling that I have to run to the bathroom, is this due to the pressure the baby is putting on my bowel, he is already 6 lbs?
