caffeine and pregnancy Posted: 01-07-08 19:00pm
so i've been reading everywhere that you
shouldn't drink caffeine while pregnant..
does that mean Sweet Tea is dangerous too?
that sucks, it's
all i drink.
ok, another one, i'm gonna sound like a
dummy, but you guys just reassure me that
i'm not freaking out for nothing...
my last period started on dec 16, 2007. my
cycle is usually 21-24 days. tomorrow will
be the 24th day, and i don't feel pms-y
except light cramping and tender boobs.
it's very rare that i get my period after
the 22nd day. i've got a dollar store test
waiting for me in my sock drawer, i'm
gonna do it tomorrow morning cause that's
when your pee is most "potent" lol. i have
a reason to feel the need to take that
test though, right?

Have you been having unprotected sex? If
so, then test for sure! Waiting until
morning is a good idea. If it comes out
negative and you still don't get your
period, wait a few days and test again

How old are you? Do you want a baby yet?
If not, you should really get on birth
control pills if you aren't pregnant.

Caffeine isn't bad for you in moderate
amounts during pregnancy. You can have
about 1-2 cups of regular coffee a day.
The only thing I'd worry about is having
it effect your sleep. Things tend to get
exaggerated by pregnancy hormones, so make
sure if you need your daily cup, you get
it in before noon.

Errrrrrrr Confused Big Time Posted: 01-09-08 20:52pm
so i didn't get to take the test this
morning, i had to take the bro to school
and go grocery shopping. i took it at like
5:30 pm... and i wiped when i was done,
and there was light pink blood. i was
like, "okay there's your anwser.. a
negative test and blood". i put a pad on
and went to watch tv.. and i just now went
to the bathroom, and no more blood is
coming out... maybe the dollar store test
wasn't good? get an expensive one?

dollar store tests are just as effective
as any expensive test. it doesnbt matter
how much it cost.
i think your period is just about to start
that sucks, it's
all i drink.
