Whats Normal?

Umm, I would think constant diarrhea would be a red flag. You might want to contact your doctor about that. Being ichy isn't a pregnancy symptom that .I'm aware of, but is a sign that something is irritating your skin. Nausea, fatigue, and frequent urination are all normal. Moodiness is as well.

Sounds like she might have either a uti or a yeast infection on top of being prego.


She needs to go to a gyno soooooooon.

**edited cuz I wrote he not she lol**

Itchiness can be a sign of pregnancy, but not until way later when our skin is stretching. Probably a yeast infection.

What can I take for those? Can I take cranberry pills? I havent even seen a doc since I found out im pregnant, all they did was givem e a blood test, then said they cant see me cuz I dont have insurance. And I dont qualify for medicaid. I tried calling a diffrent office today but they were closed cuz of mlk day.

If you don't have insurance you should qualify for medicaid.

You can't really take anything for a yeast infection until your second trimester I believe. You really need prenatal care.

If you don't have insurance, &you don't make a lot of money, you really should qualify for .Medicaid... I *have* insurance (doesn't cover pregnancy), live with my parents, &have a job.. &.I still qualified. Maybe it's different in other states.. But you should qualify.

I already got denied for medicaid, wic, and foodstamps becuz my hubby makes too much money. I barely bring home a 290 dollar paycheck but before taxes it is 400 he brings home like 1000 before taxes a paycheck. And they look at that. They dont look at bills, child support or anything. So basically were screwed. I hate this state. I think its bulls**t that people can sit on their a**es and not work and just keep popping out kids and geto n all of the damn programs out there, but the people who are working cant get anything! But yet dont make enough to do anything with. I'm not saying all people on medicaid are lazy, but alot of people I know are that are on it. They continue to not work, not support thier kids, and live off of the people who do works hard earned tax money. I cant get benefits at my job til the end of this year. So I have been completely stressed out with that. Plus my hubby has been kind of a jerk to me. Saying I am a promiscuous person who just wanted to get pregnant and get a check from him. So I told him he wont ever see his kid if thats how he feels, cuz then I wouldnt be getting a check if he doesnt sign birth certificate. But with insurance stress and hubby stress on top of this is almsot overwhelming for me.

Medicaid rocks. There's nothing like a free pregnancy, lol.

Doesn't your hubby get benefits at work that you &the baby would be covered under?

How come you can't be on your husband's insurance? Not to stress you out even more but having a baby is wicked expensive. I had a c-section and without insurance it would've cost me over $19,000.

They're supposed to look at necessary bills and child support.

They wont even look at our bills. I know its expensive. But I have my appt. With medicaid tomrrow, but they already told us we arent gonna get anything. This is colorado, benefit programs suck here. No opportunities at all. Im so stressed out.

Tell them if you don't qualify you're going to just have to have an abortion. I bet they'll try harder to see that you qualify.

Not to brag but its great to be canadian where no matter how rich or how poor everyone has free medical ...

Do you have a rash with the itchiness? There is a condition called pupps that you can get with pregnancy. It is basically just an itchy red rash that won't go away until the baby is born but is not harmful to the mother or the baby. All you can do is put things like cortizone cream on it to relieve the itching. I would talk to your doctor before doing anything though.

Where I live you don't qualify for medicaid unless your pregnant or jobless. I didn't know she wasn't pregnant the first time she applied.
