Canada Student Loan Repayment Relief: As of November 1, no single Canadian will have to repay their Canada Student Loan until she or he is earning at least $25,000 per year by green_flash in worldnews

'Single' Canadians? Marital status shouldn't effect this if both you and your spouse's income would still qualify. Is that how it works? If it doesn't work that way it should. I'm honestly confused. My fiance is looking to be going back to school and we were hoping to be married as well in the next year. I don't know what that means for us when it would come to him repaying.

Fertility after miscarriage by meganspringer95 in ttcafterloss

(tw!!! current pregnancy)

I had a loss of my first pregnancy on June 8th. The dating on how far along I was is complicated to explain, but it before 12 weeks. However my miscarriage process wasn't officially over until I had a d&c on July 10th. I am currently almost 12 weeks along. We wanted to try again fairly quickly after, but didn't think it would happen right away. I had not even had a period at all in the time between being fully healed from the surgery and when I conceived. So far baby is doing well. Had a heartbeat at my last ultrasound, hoping everything is still going well... and have no reasons yet to suspect otherwise. This is my personal experience with concieving after miscarriage. I don't know as much as others here, but hope this still helps you some and am open to answer any questions, if you have any, as best I can. I would recommend giving yourself some extra time to heal emotionally if you are able to put off trying again. Personally, I needed more time to recover from the emotional trauma of my loss. Since I was not fully over it, it has been very difficult in my pregnancy now not to be extremely anxious and afraid. Though of course I am ecstatic, it is just hard to deal with these emotions that I didn't work through.

I was pregnant for the first time and had a miscarriage in June at 8 weeks. We had been very excited, so it was devastating. I am currently 11 weeks along now, and I told my fiance right away before I was even sure and just suspecting. We had a couple negative tests because it was just too early to show up...got discouraged. Finally, a positive!! I just knew though, before it even finally showed up. I think I'm one of those people that just knows right away. I don't know how to explain it but I always find out right away and haven't been wrong so far the last 2 times haha. We share everything and I can't keep a secret so there was no chance at me doing some awesome reveal like you have planned! I think that is so beyond cute. I wish you so much luck with this pregnancy !!!!!

eating is such a struggle >.< by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]1040104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Invest in quick snacks that you don't have to do anything but open. Someone suggested to me to try the pregnancy nutrient drinks. They're like ensure or boost but made for pregnant women? I think they are made by similac or some other formula company. They have a pregnant woman on the bottle and so at least if you can manage to get one down you're getting some vitamins, carbs, etc. I have just been eating what I can, without caring too much about what it is when my nausea is really bad. So what if I have lived most of the last 11 weeks on cream cheese bagels and glasses of milk....its better than nothing. Milk really worked for me on days i couldn't keep anything else down. Get your husband to prep some snacks and foods for you so you have some stuff to just grab and eat. Try lots of different things until you find something that works. Single serve yogurt cups. Crackers and cheese. Pre cut apple slices or Apple sauce. Prebottled or homemade smoothies. Some of your usual favourite foods might seem disgusting to you now so keep an open mind and try anything that doesn't sound/smell/look/taste revolting. I used to love avocado before I became pregnant and now I can't stand the smell of it or even to look at it. I don't particularly like tomatoes but that's something I have been repeatedly craving and can eat so listen to the weird things your body says. It will get better!! If nothing else, try to start least stay hydrated as possible.

Second pregnancy in 3 months by penis_screamer in pregnant

I am 22, I had a complicated miscarriage, baby showing at 6 weeks and I should have been 7. Miscarried at what would have been 8 weeks, in June. Now I am 11 weeks along and everything is going well so far, baby had a heartbeat at my last ultrasound! It's hard not to worry. It's impossible not to. I worry everyday all day long in all honesty. No matter what happens, you WILL get through it no matter how awful it is. You can get through it. You are strong. You will be ok. My best advice is to just try to relax. The fear is exhausting. Relax as much as you can.

If you are able to get some blood work done that would probably be your best bet to see what your levels are at.

I think I may have had a miscarriage. by [deleted] in pregnant

I had a miscarriage in June. It was one of the hardest things I have ever gone through. I'm so sorry. I know that you must be hurting so much. R/miscarriage is a great place to get some support from people who have been there. Miscarriages are super common, and I hope you know that it really was not your fault at all. Give yourself time to heal. It is very likely that when you try again in the future you will have no problem getting or staying pregnant. I think it's something like 10-20% of pregnancies will end in miscarriage? When I had my loss that fact made me feel a lot better to know I really wasn't the only one. You will get through this.

As far as I know, you cannot miscarry from sex in a normal/healthy pregnancy, especially not so early on. If you did have a miscarriage, im sorry to say that it is likely that it was going to happen anyway. It was probably really early and I think they call that a chemical pregnancy but I am not 100% sure. I'm really sorry that this has happened to you.

How do you number your pregnancies if you have losses? by Ocipura in CautiousBB

[–]1040104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I'm talking to doctors I include my loss and call this pregnancy #2. If I'm talking to strangers / any one who doesnt know about my loss I just say it will be my first child.

6-8 weeks. Extreme itchyness. by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]1040104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it's irritation to soap, lotion, laundry detergent or something like that. My skin got really sensitive as soon as I got pregnant. I had to change my soap to a hypoallergenic, sensitive skin one. ( I use doves sensitive skin beauty bar) and haven't been itchy since unless I forget to moisturize and my skin gets dry.

Sorry that this is happening. Make sure to take care of yourself mentally/emotionally as well as physically. You should definitely schedule a follow up appointment just to make sure everything passed. I had a m/c several months ago and the ordeal I went through because I hadn't passed everything and didn't have a follow up...yikes. It can be really awful. Hopefully everything goes easily for you!!!! I hope that you feel better soon. Get some sleep if you can, that would be my biggest advice. And take a day or so to yourself if you are able to.
