Get him for child support! Thats the only thing you can do. You didn't get pregnant all by yourself and trust me its quite an expensive venture. Its his responsibility to see you through this (at least do his half). Both my mother and my sister were pregnant at 17. Just knowing how they went through life, just hang in there. And totally take that creep for child support.

I'm Pregnant

Somebody was asking if anybody here was actually pregnant - I am. I'm 37 1/2 weeks though. Not too much longer before the big day.

I don't know if im pregnant yet, but I woke up feeling really hot (hot flashes) took a shower and still the same. My husband said it might be my body incubating. He is a rn. My boobs are sore somewhat.
I was suppose to start yesterday but nothing yet.
I cramped alot the day before my period was due but nothing since.
Did anyone go through this?

sore boobs is a big one. As far as the other symptoms, don't remember those, but then again - every pregnancy is different.

you know what? I tested myself as soon as I started feeling symptoms. I was that anxious (its my first pregnancy). It was a weak positive but when I saw that, I became pretty sure. And then I tested myself again like three days later and it was a strong positive.

The way I see it is, its $14 bucks well spent - especially if its a positive, because there is no mistaking that. If its a negative and your symptoms continue, then i'd just retake it like a week later maybe. Of course I say that, but i'd probably be the one to spend a $100 and test myself everyday just out of sheer anxiety.

i only found out today that I am pregnant, but for the past week I have had hot flashes (which are currently coming on one atleast every hour) and stomach cramps, the other day I went into my bathroom and looked down and came running down the stairs to my husband and I said to him are my boobs bigger I was so freaked out at the fact that they were super huge lol its scary

is there anyway to stop the hot flashes at all or even maybe slow the frequency?

I am 26 weeks prego and have been having hot flashes for weeks now. I have alot of stress in my life right now and wonder if that has any effect. My husband left me for another woman who is also prego by him. She is about 2 months less than me. My doctor said its my body reacting to the hcg hormones. Does all this seem strange to anyone else? I am worried cause there are women in my family who have gone through early menopause. I am only 28 though.

Hot Flashes
Posted: 11-04-05 19:34pm

I'm 14 wks preggo. It is so nice to hear others share the same emarrassment as i. I have hot flashes several times during the day, and it seems I have them alot when I am inside or with alot of people, probably because the room heats up with all the bodies, many times it occurs when i'm talking to ppl, man is it embarrassing, people make fun of me and don't seem to understand it's due to the pregnancy. Any suggestions on how to handle this embarrassment?

Hot And Cold Flashes
Posted: 11-08-05 15:24pm

This is my 4th pregnancy and the first time i'm experiencing these cold and hot flashes. Since I am 37, I worried that maybe I was actually going through menopause instead of being pregnant. Or that maybe i'm about to have a miscarriage. I did have a positive home preg. Test, but I had never heard of hot flashes except in the context of menopause. This is one of the few sites where i'm learning about it. Thanks for everyone posting about their experiences. Good luck to all, and to the pregnant teenagers... You are especially precious to god, put your faith in him.

Chills a lot lately, but since my morning (actually all day sickness) seemed to only be severe for about a week im hoping this will pass too.. Id appreciate anymore info anyone has on the subject

Hot Flashes
Posted: 03-03-06 06:57am

I hate getting these hot flashes. I getting them usually between 4 and 7 am. Sometimes I do get them during the day. However I actually I have been getting hot flashes since I was 22. I am 26 now and 18 weeks pregnant. So I guess you can say I am kind have a "pro" at them; however they are still scary. I live in fl so it is just going to get worse for me (however I will be moving to wisconsin before summer starts to have the baby so I wont be dealing with the fl heat). My roommates hate me b/c I need the ac on almost all the time. I can instantly tell if someone turns on the heat. I have learned just keep yourself cool as possible to try to help from not getting them. You still will get them but not as bad as you think. Other than that when you go to bed at night dress lightly and make sure what you wear is 100% cotton.

Hot Flashes
Posted: 03-06-06 18:54pm

My husband and I are ttc our second baby. The first one wasn't planned so I don't remember alot about the early symptoms because I wasn't paying attention. Now that we are planning this one, I feel like a crazy person analyzing every weird feeling I have. I'm supposed to start on the 13th but for the last four days I have been unusally tired and I had a hot flash at work two days ago. Didn't have hot flashes with the first. I enjoy reading everyones comments. This website is great. Well, wish me luck and good luck to all of you!!! :wink:

I'm Confused-please Read
Posted: 03-08-06 16:01pm

I was reading through recent posts on this topic and wanted to see if I could get some feedback from some of you. I am 27 yrs. Old and went off the pill last fall in prep for ttc later this year. I have a history of irregular periods and was told that my periods might take several months to become regular.

I went for a check-up the 2nd week of jan. And my obgyn did a vaginal & abdominal ultrasound on me to check for cysts, blocked tubes healthy uterus etc. Everything came back normal. Well, it has been 5 months today and no period yet. I have experienced wierd symptoms though starting the last week of jan. My husband and mom noticed that my breasts were bigger. I too had noticed this while in the shower one morning. Then a week later I thought my period was on its way cuz I had light cramping for 2-3 days but it never came. I took several hpt's just to make sure and they all came back negative.

The worst thing is this. I don't normally gain weight in my middle area, I tend to gain in my thighs. Yet lately my stomach has been swollen and my jeans are tighter. I've really been watching my food intake and exercise to make sure it is not related to over indulgence. Finally, last night I had my first ever hot flash followed by cold chills. I felt weak and shaky and had to eat something. I checked my temperature to see if I was running a fever but I was not. All this to say...I am definitely confused with a capital c.

Are all of these things normally related to someone getting off the pill...I thought maybe my hormones were just getting used to not having the influence of the pill? My husband and I haven't really started "trying" to conceive but we would be happy if we were pregnant. Any ideas anyone?

Well my periods were also irregular and my husband and I just started trying to get pregnant in december 2005. I didn't have my period for over 2 months and I had taken hpt's left and right, I even had a blood test done, and all the tests were negative.. This week would have made 3 months that I had missed my period, so I got curious over the weekend and took a pregnancy test, it was positive, so I took a couple more (hours apart )and they were all positive, so on monday I went to the Dr. To get another blood test and this time it was positive..
