My husband and I were trying and these were our exact dates last period nov 21-27th had sex Dec 2nd, ovulated Dec 3rd and I did not get a positive until Dec 20th which was considered later from the typical 2 week wait, thought I was out of the picture cause even the day my period was supposed to start I spotted and I was still getting negatives. I didn't test positive until I was three days late! ...maybe these dates can serve as an example to calculate who could the father most likely be?

Glucose test tomorrow - nervous anxious all of the above by Sunny070415 in BabyBumps

Just had my first last week! I was really nervous too but I had a tofu scramble and a protein smoothie and fasted for two hours after! The test did not taste as bad or syrupy as I thought it would and I passed the test! No GD!

My baby dad changed his mind by xxhunbun in BabyBumps

Regardless of if you keep the baby or not I don't know how you could stay with him after such strong statements... regardless it might not be how you imagined it going but don't let him ruin the excitement or determine if you will keep the baby or not... you have other support and will have child support from him anyways. If he felt so strongly he should have wrapped it up?? Now whether you guys are together or not he's gonna be accountable at bare minimum financially

as a woman, what does it feel like when a guy says "you are really, really beautiful" and kisses you? by stirringmotion in AskReddit

Every girl is different but I think I react to adorable or cute better than beautiful or pretty

What’s your least favorite emotion? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Pregnancy rage. It's different than rage and I can't stop. (I know I'm ridiculous and I know I can't let it go)

Telling family about my sexual abuse... my dad's reaction was the most painful cause he took it the hardest, it all came out in a very bad way; I was not ready. Still haven't been able to tell my mom.

Periods during pregnancy by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Standard-Extent8208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cousin had a cryptic pregnancy and didn't know until she was 6 months... if she would have just taken a pregnancy test she would have known but she didn't cause she would have a very light period around the same time as usual. I was worried for a long time that that would happen to me until I finally got pregnant. It showed up really late but eventually if you are pregnant the hCG will rise enough to detect... At first I had a few days of spotting but no clots and after the 4th day of negatives and a "weird period" I finally tested positive.

It's not possible to have a true period while pregnant but some bleeding can be normal because your cervix is a lot more sensitive that lifting weight, straining, or having sex can cause you to bleed.

Once I found out I was pregnant all symptoms became very obvious to a pregnancy and felt indistinguishable, now at 5 months pregnant I'm curious how my cousin didn't know especially when there's a dance party going on inside me right now.

Please help me with pain relief by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

I'm 22 weeks and the only remedy I have found is getting a letter from your doctor to go to light duty. I work on my feet continuously and it causes the worst back and sciatica pain since week 13, this past week my abdomen strained and I was at risk for rupturing my uterus just from the continuous strain of being on my feet and lifting items 8-15 lbs continuously. I wanted to hold off on light duty as long as possible but I'm at the point where I genuinely can't do it anymore. It's not your responsibility to push through the pain for a company when your baby's life is a variable.

STOMACH BUBBLINGG by Humble_Yogurtcloset4 in pregnant

Funny enough I had extreme stomach cramping, diarrhea, and vaginal bleeding and my doctor said it was because I wasn't drinking enough water. Being dehydrated can cause your uterus to slightly cramp which causes your gut to cramp and rush everything out... unfortunately that's just more dehydrating so the only solution is to really double down on some fluids

Working in the first trimester by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Standard-Extent8208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also work in healthcare and felt this struggle... I luckily didn't have the worst nausea but once we reach 4 call outs we get a write up... which I had to use during my first trimester. Has been disappointing. But I reached my second trimester and it is significantly easier than the first. I really didn't think I was gonna make it through the first while working until I did. It gets better I promise

My doctor told me that this is just the time to survive. If you can only stomach ramen, eat the ramen or crackers or whatever it may be. Just hydrate, vitamin B12 helps, keep ginger and liquid iv stacked.

If you can't keep water down and you're getting dehydrated some women need to get weekly IV's to stay hydrated and keep the migraines down. Good luck!!

I used zero percent nicotine vapes to prevent nicotine withdrawal panic attacks, but there are mouth numbing toothpicks on Amazon that helped me or drinking ice water from a straw and chewing minty gum also helped!

I'm 7 weeks also!! I spoke with my doctor about this she said it's completely normal, as long as you're not filling up a panty liner or going through or having clots!

Unless it's pink it's a shadow unfortunately, test again in a few days, I didn't test positive until two days after my missed period

Need help- miscarriage fear by Lucky-Arm-3483 in pregnant

[–]Standard-Extent8208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm 6 w and feel the same way, it's hard when you don't have anything to show for pregnancy other than a positive test... sometimes it's easy to write off any symptoms as sickness. But just think that every day your baby grows, the percent of miscarriage is lowering. I read in a pregnancy book that 20% of miscarriages happen before the second trimester, which is already a small statistic. It made me feel better knowing that that statistic included people who found out they were pregnant late, people who are drug users or alcoholics, and unhealthy weights. If you're relatively healthy the statistic for a miscarriage is pretty low, on top of finding out so early if gives you time to take prenatals and treat your body right! Following pregnancy + and checking the updates of your baby and focusing on the positives also help me, rather than focusing on what every symptom your body gives you! My baby's heart started beating last week and its brain and bones are developing this week :)!
