Your Pregnancy: Week 14

Coolgirl - you need to see a high risk doctor and quickly, as it means you could miscarry. I hate to scare you, but you need to see the doctor and have a cerclage or stitch put into your cervix to keep it closed. This may require bedrest or just taking it easy, but I wouldn;t wait to see a specialist. Did you ever happen to have HPV or precancer of the cervix, as it is very comoon in women with these conditions.

Coolgirl-what symptom did you have?

I have been very short of breath and light headed during my normal work day (office job), why is this happening? I make sure I go sit down, but what could be causing it? I am 14 weeks pregnant with my first...

I still have m/s too. It really stinks. It is awful. 9 weeks of the flu is just so frustrating. I hope it stops!!! I feel best when I am snacking on something cold or granola. In between when I just can't eat a thing, this is awful, I chew juicy fruit or hubba bubba - fruity tastes help me. Brushing my teeth A LOT. So much sugar.

i am 14 weeks and what can i say i love tuna alot more headach are going crazy back and more pain i never had b4 i'm havin now every pregnantes is differnet omg this is i'm still hopin for a girl i have twin girls already but there is a reason why i want a other one

pattisev- careful with throwing around "very common," because it is not. there is a slight increased risk of those things, but its not COMMON. coolgirl would only know her cervix is opening if she saw a doctor, so she should follow the doctor's recommendations about procedures. the fear mongering that goes on around this site is a total disappointment.

This is my first pregnancy and it seems that I am getting along fairly well. I believe that my stomach is getting bigger. I am 14 wks along and I have had no morning sickness at all (knock on wood) although brushing my teeth has become a chore. LOL. I was wondering if anyone knows about when I should feel the baby move, I thought I did the other day and then I thought that it was probably gas or some other stomach issue. LOL.

I'm completely exhausted, I have a 22 month old daughter who refuses to sleep in her bed so I rarely get adequate sleep

So...life gave me a lemon and I made a baby!

I will be 14 weeks in a couple days. I have had bad morning sickness since week 6. I am hoping it will let up soon but at this point I am not counting on it. On a more exciting note, even though I lost 10 lbs from being sick I did notice myself starting to show this week.

I was 14 weeks yesterday, and I feel so nice, I had 3 months m/s and its all gone.. Sometimes I dont even feel preggies... I love my little one getting bigger each day... And cant wait any longer!

lauren.goins - I finally got the swine flu shot as well. I had mine 2 days ago and I am fine. I do have to say that my arm felt EXTREMELY heavy for a little over 24 hrs, and felt lethargic, but other than that, I am doing great. My husband was very pro me getting it and after more research and speaking with a rep from the CDC, I felt good about taking it.

14 weeks and still throwing up!! If I read about one more person who cant wait for their symptoms to start or state that they never got sich I might just .... hope everyone else is feeling good!!

Blah 14wks today and I have this sharp pain that is so uncomfortable kinda by my belly button...doc says its heart burn or my gallbladder...hmmm

I too am starting to feel extremely tired and I am 13 weeks pregnant. At work, I can hardly keep my eyes closed.

I had this pinching-type pain in what I would assume would be my cervix and got online to see if I could figure out what it was - one of the things it could be was my cervix opening - but, obviously, that should only normally happen in the 3rd trimester. So, Coolgirl, unless you're bleeding or have seen a doctor who's told you that your cervix is opening (and then I would expect your doctor would have told you "what it means") then my best guess is that it's just your uterus growing and expanding. I agree that we can tend to get too caught up in everything that can go wrong because of what ladies post online - talk to your doctor and don't assume the worst - it'll be better for all of us and our babies...

i'm 14 weeks and i am def. starting to feel the pains caused by my ever growing uterus...i swear my child had to have gained an ounce overnight! By the way, maternity pants....SO comfy!

I am 14 weeks and finally feel like myself again! Is it possible to feel the baby move this early? I thought I felt something last night.

I agree I am high risk you make need progesterone shots weekly to keep the bundle of joy inside. I have to start thse shots at 16 weeks

I'm 14 weeks and finally just starting to show - mostly it still looks like I am bloated but I am glad that my pants are finally starting to get tight. ;)

I am now 14 weeks pregnant and just wishing to move onto the stage where I can just wear maternity clothes or remain in my regualr clothes. I havent gained any weight its the changing shape of my body. I cannot wait to meet my second child in the summer time!!!!

I'm 14 weeks and am having twins! Feeling a bit better than a couple weeks ago with the ms, but I'm showing sooo much! None of my old cloths fit and it's been hard to think that if I'm this big now, what I'm going to look like by month 8 or 9! I'm also having a lot of pain in my hip and lower back area. I've been going to prenatal yoga and trying to stretch a lot. But it doesn't seem to help...

I'm 14 weeks today, and still have m/s. I just noticed my breast has some small marks.. this is too soon =-( I went to see my doctor & my husband and I were looking at our baby, during that time I felt fluttering. and our baby was just moving, moving =-) it was such an awesome feeling. my husband & I are so blessed..

I started having headaches! Horrible ones..Just want to lay in bed all day. I also got a blood vessel rash (?) on my face. Was told it could be low circulation and nothing to worry about. Just another exciting pregnancy symptom! yay! I am 14 weeks today and am loving every minute of it so far!

Ugh. I am still not "enjoying" pregnancy. I have yet to find a day where I feel 10/10. Most days I am still fighting the nausea and its really taking away from the overall experience. I hope this gets better.

Hey Ladies, New on here. I had a scare over the weekend at 14 weeks. Started bleeding, went to ER, cervix is closed & heard the baby's heart beat. Went to OB today for ultrasound. There is a bleed in my placenta. The doc didn't seemed too concerned & so I didn't at the time either. Now, I'm wondering how did this happen? It never crossed my mind to ask. She said to keep up my normal activity level but no sex for next 3 weeks. Has anyone else experienced this??? BTW, I'm 38 years old with no children yet. And the baby looks good so maybe that is why she isn't too concerned. I have just read so much scary stuff like Placenta abruption I'm getting a little worried. I will call her tomorrow to see what could have caused this, but in the mean time thought I would discuss on here. Thanks!!

Sunrise33 yes peanuts are fine any kind of nut is good for you to nuts are really high in protien so at least your lil one is getting protien and water.

placenta abruption can happen to anyone, at anytime in a pregnancy. the reasons (to my knowledge) are still unknown. it happened to my cousin with her first baby, two weeks before her due date. as long as you get immidiate medical attention as soon as you notice the blood, your baby will have a good chance. in my cousin's case she was in school and the nurse decided to keep her for two hours before she called an ambulance. another thing, if you are transported for bleeding while pregnant in an ambulance, make sure you are transported laying on your left side and even though it's hard, try not to panic. being on your left side allows your uterus to expand, taking pressure off and lessening the bleeding, and by not panic you are taking off the added stress which is not good for you,baby, or the situation.

OMG I CANT EAT NOTHING LOL WHEN I HAVE A CRAVING AND I GET THE FOOD I WANT I GAG UGHHH I HOPE THIS GOES AWAY!!!

I am 14 weeks and barely making it through my 9 hour work day, i HAVE to be sure to snack every 2hours or i get headaches, cramps...etc. by the time i get home i unknowingly have fallen asleep for hours. I am so exhausted, and every now and then my emotions get the best of me... its alot of getting used to, this is my 1st sweet pea in the oven, and im very excited!

Can anyone else feel the baby bouncing off your bladder?

I can't wait to feel my baby move! I am 14 weeks as of today && I just hope I feel it soon! Has anyone felt it yet for sure?!

IS IT OK TO EAT SPICY FOOD AND LIMES WHEN PREGNANT?

Hello there cool girl just letting you know i have had a type of hpv High cancer white cells for a while and didnt know it My doctor told me there is nothing to worry about mommy and baby will be fine he said it has nothing to to with your high white cells when you M/C it's ether a bad egg or a lot of stress that can lead to a M/c Have you sen a Doc and has he told you your cervix is opening ? if you are spotting or heavy bleeding with clots i would go in right away if not put your feet up and relax and take it easy i am also 14 weeks pregnant and have HPV and when i didnt even know i had it i had 3 healthy children just take it easy and wishing you the best of luck . ps i am getting a hysterectomy done after my Fourth since my Hpv is not going away but me and my husband will have a complete family take care .

I am 14 weeks today and feeling wonderful! I wish I would get an actual baby belly though! Sometimes I feel like I just look fat!

I have hpv and I am 14 weeks along..how d you know your cervix is opening does it hurt? because I would like to know how you are able to tell.

I found out I have cervical polyps, the Dr. says its due to the pregnancy hormones and estrogen changes. Does any one have this too due to pregancy?

I have a sub chorionic bleed, I think thats how you spell it, anyway, my doctor says that it happens in alot of women and as long as you are not gushing and having bright red blood you should be fine.

I am 14-15 weeks along. I went to the dr this week started having lots of braxton hicks. Dr checked by examination and ultrasound to make sure cervix was closed and it is, but dr says some women contract through entire pregnancy. As far as coolgirl's cervix opening - you need to get to dr quickly - def sign of preterm labor!! Also, mcoleman my belly is big - I started showing quite a bit at 8 wks - now I look 5-6 mos prego (this is my 3rd baby) - all I can say is WOW I am going to be huge towards the end. Oh well, all that matters is healthy baby!!

Hello All, I am 14 weeks to day and I have decided not to find out the sex of the baby. How do I deel with everyone else that wants to know? I did the whole it's my decision and you are going to have to wait thing but they are still hounding me.

Going to be 15 weeks tomaro and felt the baby moving like crazy last night!

Coolgirl - I would See your OB Because that could be serious, or minor, But always good to ask OB those questions!

Yay.....14 weeks along....soooo happy. Went to OB yesterday and both lemons have strong heartbeats (even though one is slower than the other). Go in a few weeks to MUSC for level 2 US to make sure everything is ok with my littles....I love being a mommy

14 weeks today!!! Started spotting on Tuesday but went to the OB today & baby looks good. They were able to find the heartbeat with the doppler!!!! I got to see the baby on a crappy u/s machine b/c the Dr did the u/s in the room but I could see the baby's hands, legs, spine.....so cool!!! We cant wait to find out what we're having!!!!

At the beginning of my pregnancy I was severely sick with just the simple ole morning, noon, and night sickness. I lost 20 pounds and didn't gain anything in the first 3 months. I am now 14 weeks along and I have lost another 5 pounds. I am not sick as much anymore and have picked up an appetite. Nothing seems to be working. Hopefully everything is ok with me and all. Is anyone else experiancing this same kind of situation??

I am 14 weeks along with my third. I know I have felt the baby move, but you cannot feel it from outside my tummy yet. I just had surgery yesterday for my IC (incompetent cervix). I had a previous leep so we are just taking precautions. If your cervix is starting to open you would only know it through an ultrasound, and the dr should explain it all to you. At 14 weeks they'll just put a stitch in and you should be fine

I'm 14 weeks today and threw up for my first time yesterday (well actually 3 times)...I hope it was just a fluke :( I thought my horrible headaches were enough through the first trimester...I don't want another problem to start nowwww

I have cramping every night from 6-8pm, I think that is so weird, its like clockwork!! Thought i felt something moving, but dont know if it was my belly rumbling....

My wife and I are 14 weeks with our first after 23 years God has an amazing plan

I'm 14 weeks and I finally have my energy back! I have been experiencing some cramping, but I'm really not showing yet. I defintely feel preggo but I dont look it. I have my dr appt on Friday and I'm so excited! i dont want to find out what it is just yet. my husband is serving over in Afghanistan and its our first so we want to find out together in July when hes home on leave! Its so hard not to ask now! Has anyone else asked their drs abt the sex of their baby yet? ive been told you can tell by 14-16 weeks

hello im 14 and overweigh this is my first pregnancy and i dont know when i am going to start showing because of my weight

Today I was sitting down and was eating breakfast, I dropped some food on the floor and went to pick it up...as soon as I came back up, I had this awful pain in my lower abdomen, it was like a pressure and pain at the same time. I am 14 weeks as of today, should I be worried about this? My abdomen is sore now.

its my first baby and im soo excited, 14 going on 15 weeks and i soo dont feel pregnant! i feel great actually but have no mood-swings or cravings yet, i dont even get hungry as much but now i eat regardless want my baby to have sufficient food!.. feel really blessed.

I have been having numbness and pain in my left hip, lower back and leg, this has been going on about a month and I am 15 weeks. I went to the chiropractor and it did nothing. Any suggestions?

Im almost 15 weeks and I still have morning sickness, I am always starving even though Im always eating, I had to quit school until January (when baby is Born) because I get soo tired so fast and all the time, even though when I get home from work (at 6 pm) all I do is eat and sleep all evening. I throw up almost every morning and I CANT WAIT TO FEEL BETEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

so it says the fetus should be 1.5 oz...well at my last ultra sound (12 weeks and 1 day) my fetus was already an estimated 2 oz..does this mean ill have a large baby?

I'm 14 weeks and I am showing. Maybe because I got fat before getting pregnant. Love that I have my energy back.

Sunrise- If it gets to bothersome or causes too many complications, I would tell your doctor. They can prescribe you Phenergan. I was on it for my first pregnancy because I was so bad that I was already hospitalized for dehydration at this point in my pregnancy. It also makes you very tired.

Hey all! Hope everyone is copoing with the all day sickness...whoever coined it morning sickness didn't live it!! Anyway - I'm 14 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and I was sick the entire 9 months with my first. The good thing was that I took 6 diclectin (pills) a day and that took the nausea and vomiting completely away. Didn't find out there was even a drug until I was 16 weeks the last time. This time, I started the diclectin at the onset and I am pleased to say that today I've had my first ever diclectin free day this pregnancy!!! Wooohoooo!!! So to all those out there that are still sick, if you haen't tried diclectin - talk to your doctor's tomorrow! Good luck!

I am 14 weeks pregnant and I am also still having morning sickness, well mine is morning noon and night, the only time i am not sick is if i can force myself to eat through the sick feeling andonce i get it all down a full meal i feel ok but the migraines are really bad tylenol doesnt seem to work too well. my breasts hurt mre then in the begining. this is my second and it seems to be a little worse then the first one i have atwo year old little boy named hadyen! dont know what i am having yet but can any one give me some unique girls names

I am 14 weeks today...I am planning on going to Cancun on my 17 weeks of pregnanycy...is it safe to fly???? I had no m/s at all and sometimes don't feel I am pregnant... I had an ultrasound sone at my genetic testing and I could see so many details of my baby...

Coolgirl- i had the same issue with DS#1. Listen to pattisev and see a doctor ASAP. I had to get a cerclage and i was on bedrest but mine wasn't caught until 18 weeks. DS is great (he was actually overdue) born 8 lb 8.8 oz. It was well worth it!!

I am 14 weeks pregnant today and i am having some ligament pains and pelvic pains. I wonder if I am stretching. I am not bleeding so that's a good sign.

I heard that at 14 wks you can find out the sex? is this true?

I'm 14 weeks now and I am definitely getting my energy back. I started walking the dogs again everyday! And I am showing. Pregnancy is such a cool thing to go through.

I've been feeling my little one for about a week now! At first I thought I was crazy, but my doctor assured me that since it's my third pregnancy (one living, one miscarriage at 11w) that it's quite normal! I love feeling my belly dweller wiggle around :) My nausea has all but disappeared, and my energy levels are rising slowly but surely. Also, this was my last week in my jeans.. it's on to maternity jeans for the next few months! Hope all is going well for the rest of you!

I'm 14 weeks tomorrow! I was told I had a yeast infection the other day and that I could treat it with Monistat. I went out and got a three day treatment. Today was supposed to be the last day of treatment. I started to spot. Extremely lightly but spotting nonetheless. I called two after hours nurses and they both told me to go to the ER. Everything is fine but I was never warned by the Dr. that I might spot when it came to treating it. Would have been nice if the Dr had said something so I didn't have a freak out session before I got to the ER.

My m/s is still hanging around, but my boobs lost their gravity defying ways! Boo!

I'm 14 wks, have suffered m/s for 8 wks, all day long. I have lost 10 lbs in the past month. Saw my Dr 3d ago and she gave a prescription for the m/s. I have been in heaven the past 3d. I can eat & keep it in my stomach! Its worth talking with your Dr.

14 weeks today!! Saw the Dr. this week and heard the heartbeat for the first time...pretty surreal. And the Dr. and I felt little twinges of movement!! It's gonna be a soccer player!!

13w5d and i'm still having a little trouble with m/s but for the most part its gone. Feeling very tired. Definitelly starting to show. I have a doctors appt tomorrow i'm very excited! We get another u/s.

i feel so good i recomend to all preg.women see a chiropractic to easy up on stress an bac problems..i highly recomend it.trust me.youll feel a lot better.

is it just me or am i just crazy with my emotions, i see myself beautiful one min and a fat ass the next i love the ups and hate the downs how about u gals

God is a wonderful father and if you pray for a baby, he is the only God who can provide your needs. My hubby and I tried to have a child for four and half years with fertility treatments, but nothing worked till we stopped everything and prayed to God to take control and he did. We are almost 4 months pregnant. I want to encourage everybody who is trying for child to pray and have faith in God and it will happen.

Sunrise 33 I don't think It will be throughout your entire pregnancy for the m/s. Ginger helps alot and saltine crackers. I am also 14wks and I am ecstatic. I want to feel movement can't wait for that. I am happy for all the soon to be moms as well. Coolgirl- Get to the doctors as soon as possible. As much I wouldn't want anything wrong to happen to my baby I don't want anything wrong to happen to yours. SO GET CHECKED OUT PLEASE.

My m/s is just starting to go away this week. So hopefully it will go away for you too sunrise!

ok this is my 2nd pregnancy and lately i havent been too hungry i do eat but sumtimes not often im worried about my weightgain but i want to provide for the baby help me is this normal?

My doc told me that my papp-a level is low, in the 5th percentile, and that I need to eat 75 grams of protein a day. Anyone else in this situation? Anyone know how to get that much protein and not get big as a house?

I'm not showing much at weeks but man am I exhausted. And since my immune system is down I now have a sinus infection. But I am drinking lots of water, getting my vitamin C & sleeping a lot so I am on the mend.

IM so happy i feel how is moving my baby. Ifeel better

Is it normal to have mucusy discharge already? I had a silver dollar size yellow green mucus thing pass today. it cant be the mucus plug already can it?

Anyone else have to take the Lovenox shots?

I'm 14 weeks and 1 day!! Yay!! Im soo sleepy all the time and I am starting to get alot of round ligament pain...ouch!!

I think we need nap time while your pregnant... I have been feeling better rested now in my 14 week than I have had since I found out I was preggos. But man right after I have lunch I get so tired!

yay! 14 weeks 2 days today!! I have an apt today! pretty excited!

I'm 14 weeks as of 11/6/10! :) Still have no symptoms of pregnancy and am not showing! If I had to say I have symptoms it's that my bra size went up 1 1/2 cups and I've gained 10 pounds.. I'd say some in my waist but the rest in my bust. I'm not complaining! :P

Coolgirl- See a doctor immediately..my cervix started to open when I was 22 weeks w/ my previous pregnancy...I was in the hospital on bedrest for 2 months, and I mean strict bed rest...I had my daughter 9 weeks early...she is now a healthy 5 year old :) but with you being only 14 weeks u need to see a doctor..they may do a cerclage or 17p progesterone shots weekly...I will be starting these shots in 2 weeks with this pregnancy...hopefully they will be able to do something like this for you.

I think that I have it backwards. First trimester was great! Didnt even know I was pregnant until 8 weeks. But now that Im 14 weeks I have headaches, all day sickness and really bad heart burn. And I havent got any of my energy back!

I just got out of mt dr appointment I am 14w6d pregnant and I am haveing a BOY! It was so funny to see cause my ob was say omg you see that thing thats definitely a boy look at his wiener lets zoom in lol so I am very happy and excited to be having a boy cause I already have a daughter so it will be fun to have a boy and a whole different expercience with a boy

I'm also 14 weeks, I figured out that if I take my prenatal vitamins right before bed I didn't get m/s.

hi bumpies, just wanted to share my expeirence so far- im 13 weeks, 6 days today. so far ive had morning sickness since week 5, this week i became really dizzy and blacked out in the shower, ive been short of breath since week 11, and my gums are bleeding when i brush my teeth, face is breaking out like crazy, some round ligament pain every now and then but it goes away in seconds- i got a doppler for at-home, and my babys heartbeat is steadily around 165 now, has been for about 2 weeks, so we're doing good! ready for that 2nd wind to start! good luck to all you mommies, i seem to have every symptom in the book, so yall just pray for me!

I have daily headaches and try to drink enough watter, but they will not go away. They are here morning and night and I don't want to be taking meds everyday. I just don't know what to do...

For everyone still experiencing m/s and nausea I highly recommend Prilosec. I know it's officially for heartburn, but it has worked miracles for my nausea, vomiting, and constipation! I take it every morning and I'm feeling much better. I just wish my back/hips would stop hurting so badly. I also want to "pop" so I can "feel" pregnant. This is my second pregnancy and I'm not showing at all.

ready to find out the sex!

I am 14 weeks, and still soooo tired. Is anyone else having indigestion or heartburn?

im 14 weeks pregnant and i always feel dizzy and sometimes almost fall down the stairs is that normal. or i should go see my doctor?

I'm 14 weeks today! I'm so sick of everyone asking me if I know what's going to be, a boy or a girl? Unless I opt for an amnio, I won't know until around 20 weeks, why do people who recently had children feel the need to ask me this question! AGHHH!!! I'm ready to just tell them I'm having a boy, but were gonna dress it in a pink dress...that should shut them up. Anyone else getting this question?

can somebody please please try n explain this!!!!!! i was sitting down and felt movement on my right side/backish kinda where my curve is. it didn't hurt at all it just was like..woah!! lol im only 16 and i NEEEDDDD answers!

Good Morning ladies! Docs. Appt yesterday... baby's hb is 158 p/m, glucose test came back negative, lost 8 more pounds, but my blood pressure went up 2 points... 14 wks preggers and I have lost 20lbs since week 4! Woot woot, however the doctor assured me by the time the baby is born I will get it all back... Oh well my Marshmallow is healthy and that is all that matters to me! Have a great day!

Im so confused. I went to the doctor on Dec 6th and I was told I was 7.5 weeks and on Jan 5 (today) I am only 10 weeks according to my due date? how is this possible. Im really confused. Someone help me understand...

14 weeks and still sick. People keep saying it will let up at 12 weeks, 13 weeks, 14 weeks, some have totally skipped week 15 and said it will stop at 16. The worse part is all the people who were never sick and look at you like you are a hypercondraic.

I am 14 weeks pregnant and EXHAUSTED! I have a 10 month old and compared to my pregnancy with her this one is kicking my butt. Nausea, back pain, fatigue, SOB, and a heart murmur. Love kids and love my lil' girl, but not sure if I would be having another one if I knew it would be like this.

I am 15 weeks pregnant now and finally feel semi-normal again. I'm back to the gym and not sick anymore. I get out of breath so fast though it is really embarrassing. I honestly don't feel pregnant anymore although none of my clothes fit already. Sime women are stating they are starting to show I have been now for 2 weeks. Kind of depressing not feeling attractive anymore but it is worth it have my blue eyed angel.

So i am 14 weeks pregnant today - first pregnancy...and feeling great!!! My only complaint - I had no m/s or any strange cravings. Everything so far is good - 2 1/2 more weeks and i see my OBGYN again... 3/4/11 We find out the sex at the next ultrasound! Very Very Excited!

hi ladies, if you have had hpv or precancerous cells doesn't mean that your cervix will open. Is it a possibility, yes. Is there a chance yes. But, about 92% percent of women who have had hpv or precancerous carried full term and carried normally.

I am 14 weeks prego and showing!!! But haven't gained any weight on the scale. But my belly has grown 6 inches.

I am almost 14 weeks I heard the heart beat last week it was so amazing, I cried so hard because it was the most beautiful thing I had ever heard. I am still feeling great. I just wish could hear my little peanuts heart beat all the time.

such amazing stories,nice to kno that i'm not the only one going thru the sick stage but only thing diffrent is my sickness is night time only,i'm talking 12 at night and then i dont go to sleep until 3 o clock it's crazy,my grandmother said my baby gonna be a night halk lol..i hope not.

I actually had some cervical cancer a couple years ago I am 14 weeks and today I go to measure my cervix. They are monitoring me very closely until I am 20 weeks. The cervix has to be at least 2.5 inches long to NOT have the procedure done. You should get it checked out in case! Good luck to you hope all is OK!

CoolGirl: My sister had this problem and you shouldn't wait to see a doctor, you need to go NOW, she lost her first child at 20 weeks, because her cervic wasn't strong enough to keep the sac up in that area. I am getting check ups more now because of my sisters condition, i don't want this happeneing to me.

i am 13 weeks pregnant and im suppose to have twins but one passed away at 8 weeks old what could have been the cause for that to happen

I am 14 weeks also and so far i have lost 10lbs. I know that its common to lose weight because of the nausea in the first trimester..but 10lbs?? Anyways, thankfully my nausea is slowly decreasing and i feel much better now! Yayy!! i can eat again lol...

Hi everyone! Im 14 weeks with my 4th child. Not much m/s thank god! Lots of headaches and body aches. I finally made it to my very first dr apt on monday and I got to hear the heartbeat. My 3 yr old was with me so I couldnt do a full exam, but he was excited to hear the heartbeat as well. Im having issues though and I need some advise from all of you out there. I suffer from depression and need my meds, however Ive been off them since Nov 2010 and things are getting really bad for me. Im affraid to take them while pregnant bit I really need them. Please help me!

shellwedbells93 don't feel bad I still throw up as well and will be 15 weeks on monday. My morning sickness is getting a little better but has not gone, however now I get headaches, am slightly dizzy, and have seem to have become very ditzy..ha! ;)

I'm still getting sick and my lower back on the left side of my body hurts all the time...when I walk, when I sit, when I stand...it never stops. Is this normal???

I am 14 weeks now and have been having m/s (all day) along with waking up with nose bleeds. I have lost 13 pounds and my doctor has prescribed me a second type of meds since the first gave me bad migrains. I am haveing mixed feelings about taking the meds since there are always risks to the baby. I am home all day and can get to the bathroom with no issues, but I cant afford to loes anymore weight since I am light to begin with. I wish there was a % risk assesment on drugs to the baby.

I'm 14 weeks. Does anyone else still have strong food aversions? I am trying and trying to eat healthy, but it's so hard to do when fruits and veggies make me nauseated!

14 weeks to the day now and I can hardly believe its getting that big so fast. Im still in shock that I have something growing inside me

I have had pre-cancer in my servix. I am now 14 weeks with a short servix and on daily medication to keep my little girl inside. Talk to your doctor about medication and a cerclage. It is working for me so far.

Today is day one of week 14 Last week I started feeling a little flutter but only the one time. It was a weird feeling.

I am 14 weeks 4 days and have been feeling great! If tiredness is all I have to deal with, I WILL TAKE IT! Sorry for all those feeling so yucky! :( Almost 2 weeks ago I had a bout of a viral flu... threw up all day and had to go to the hospital that night to have an IV put in. Had the room spinning dizziness for 4 days! I'm glad I'm feeling back to my old self again! I lost 10 pounds in that sickness and haven't seemed to gain any of it back! We'll see what the dr. says at my next appointment! Has anyone had any luck finding gender neutral clothes? My husband and I are going back and forth on if we find out or not... and clothes are part of my concern... any thoughts?!?!

I have finally made it to 14 weeks. This is my 5th pregnancy since I have had 3 previous miscarriages that happened anywhere from 8 weeks to 13 weeks. I am on strict rest with this pregnancy.I was surprised with the ladies having cramping and saying it's normal on here. I have the normal round ligament pains, sharp jabbing muscle pain, kidney pains when I don't drink water but my high risk doctor and regular ob said that menstral like cramping in the middle is NOT normal. I have had 3 miscarriages with no bleeding just severe cramps as my body tried to reject the fetus then loss in the womb. My advice is to always call your OB to make sure that the pain you are experiencing is normal and to ignore the advice or opinion of others. Better safe than sorry.

Is it normal to be this tired @ 14 weeks... I was NEVER this tired with my first baby... and right now I could sleep ALL day!!!

Low blood pressure can make you tired, light headed, and dizzy.

Hello ladies!! Just wanted to answer some of the m/s questions I saw on here. I have 2 older children (girls) and am 14 weeks along with #3. And I hate to tell anyone this: with my first 2, I had m/s till about 6 months. And it didn't just occur in the morning (what a lie that turned out to be eh?) but all day, off and on. My only saving grace: I was an RX Tech and my pharmacist told me an old remedy: doxylamine (it's an antihistamine) and vitamin B-6 50 or 100 mg together at night. Couple days later, I was almost normal. Check with your OB's first, of course, but it worked for me.

No more morning sickness for me as long as I eat before I do anything else in the morning...if not, it's more like light-headedness and fatigue than m/s. I honestly don't go to the bathroom very often at all, and I drink lots of fluids all day long. When I was a baby my mom took me to the doc bc I wasn't going to the bathroom much, said I had a large bladder- must have lasted all my life, haha. I think I feel gas more than anything, no baby movements or flutters- that I've noticed. Is 20 weeks normal for the 1st ultrasound? I'm excited to see baby as soon as possible :-) Congrats everyone!

i am absolutely the crankiest person in the world right now. I can barely function at work or even with simple tasks. everything just seems to piss me off... help please! i'm an emotional wreck!!!

I am just getting over a stomach virus on top of having nausea from morning sickness. It was the worse. Got it from my 2 yr old and his daycare. Never knew that pregnant women have suppressed immune systems during pregnancy. Now I'm just eating bland foods until I can get back to semi normal eating with my regular nausea.

JULES the baby is usually felt around 16 weeks for ur first pregnancy.. with the 2nd pregnancy it can be earlier.. but u will def kno when u feel it. i remember my first child i was sittin in the car at a stop sign when it felt like a fish swan across the middle of my stomache.. thats how i always describe it. lol

I am 14 weeks and a few days and I am trying to wrap my mind around eating as healthy as possible. The problem is I have a husband, 4 children and I work full time (I don't like to be bored). Any suggestions on eating healthy with not a whole lot of me time to fix it and still relax? I used to know exactly what to eat but its just like riding a bike, I will get back into the swing of it but right now I am 2 left feet.

14 1/2 weeks.... I was wondering if anyone has had pain in vaginal area best described as pulled muscle feeling??????

Does anyone have Hemochromatosis?

Hey ladies! so im just about 14 weeks prego and i am having such a hard time with my asthma! I have had asthma my whole life and have never had any MAJOR issues with it. Since i have been about 10 weeks i have been using my rescue inhaler about 3 or 4 times a day especially in the mornimg when i wake up. I spoke to my dr. and she said that sometimes pregnancy affects asthma. she also said its ok to use my inhaler like i am. has anyone with asthma experienced this?

I am 14 weeks today!!!! Yeah!!!...I have been "looking" the pregnant part for about a month now; now that the weather is breaking into beautiful weather...I CAN'T FIND MATERNITY SHORTS!!!!! I can't wait until GAP gets their spring clothes in on WEDNESDAY!!!!...I'm sick of stretchy pants...need stretchy shorts!!!! LOL!!! ANYONE know a cute maternity online store???

Hey ladies - Is it normal (or ok) to bleed after sex? Had sex last Thursday night and saw some spotting. Been watching it and havent seen anything since then but wondering if I should be a bit worried. My next doctor's visit is next Tuesday.

has anyone with asthma gotten worse since pregnancy`/ my asthma has gotten dramatically worse< im="" using="" my="" inhaler="" a="" lottttt="" />

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and the m/s is slowly dying down. Thank God for Preggie Pop Drops, they have helped me through my m/s all too well. I'm truly excited about my pregnancy. My fiancé and my son are too excited as well.

Hello Everyone, this is my first post!!! We are 14 weeks pregnant with our first baby and so super excited. Has anyone felt their baby move yet? Some sites say you can start feeling it as early as 13 weeks? I have these little "bubble movements" kinda things going on, which I really wonder if that is just gas?!?!

i love my little lemon (loved Melanies quote :) ..i cant wait for the next 6 mnths to pass by soon and be a mommy !! UTI sucks by the way- feels like i am being kicked right in my privates..and yes nausea still remains my everyday frenemy.

I'm 14weeks and I have lost 12 lbs since finding out I'm pregnant. Needless to say my m/s has been bad. I had a Dr appt on Monday and my midwife suggested I drink ensure. For now I'm doing milkshakes to help me gain weight. I'm starting to feel a lot better now and I'm beginning to show. Being pregnant is a job for me, I'm not used to eating so much but I'm working on it. I hope I gain weight by my next appt

i am starting my 14th week today, so excited to find out what we are having on the 19th of this month!! i am starting to show, my husband still can't believe i have a bump, it seems like it grew overnight, i could swear 3 days ago it wasn't there!!

For the ladies who are experiencing pain in one hip and radiating down the leg, it might be sciatica. The best relief that I have found for it is to go for a massage, and to use ice on the area when it is really bothering you. I am an occupational therapist, and this is how we treat patients with sciatica. It has helped my own symptoms this past week, now that I am allowed to get massage again. Hope that this helps.

14 weeks, Morning sickness sloooowly going away. Feeling bloated but not showing. I just can't wait top find out with my little peanut is! lol,

I am 14 weeks and have gained 13 lbs !!! I am heartbroken with emotions all of a sudden. So far the only symptom this go around has been being tired all the time but it all hit me today problems, small ones at that, I cant get a grip! This is my fourth I should be a pro but right now I am a big baby :( .

To Coolgirl - I am assuming you were told this by your ob/gyn??? Back in 2007, I had a procedure known as a LEAP b/c I was presenting with precancerous cells on my cervix. As a precaution, my doc has me scheduled for weekly internal ultrasounds from now until my 20th week to measure the length and dialation of my cervix; if at any time my cervix is to thin or shorten, then SHE would stitch it closed to prevent preterm labor and remove the stitch between weeks 34 and 37. There is no need to panic and run to a specialist; I would simply speak to your doc about your concerns and her plan of treatment which may be monitoring for the time being.

I've already gained 13 lbs, I feel so much bigger than what I should be

i just found out that i am pregnant yesterday. I am 4wks and 6 days. The information they are giving on a week to week basis makes me think that I a m further along. I called for an appointment but they scheduled me for may 10th. Is that uncommon or anything?

Today I am 14 weeks pregnant and this is my second pregnancy. What they say is true...each pregnancy is different. This time around I haven't had the morning sickness or the headaches like I did the first time. The fatigue I had in the earlier weeks, but so far not as much. Since I hadn't lost the weight I gained with the first pregnancy I am kind of glad that I haven't gained like I did last time during the first trimester. What I notice this time around is that nothing really sounds good...I am actually sick of eating. I drink water constantly (but I always have, even before my first pregnancy) and when I eat I can't eat as much as I used to. I have actually lost some weight, which I heard is normal during the first trimester. So we will see. I am not looking forward to being big and pregnant during this upcoming HOT summer though. Congrats ladies. We got quite a while to go! :)

14 weeks and finally the m/s is going away! I am so happy I have been a shade of green for weeks all day everyday. I am still feeling very tired but hey I can handle that. Had an ultrasound on Friday and baby was moving all over the place looked like he/she was pushing back against the ulra sound device. Starting to show a bit all my clothes feel uncomfortabe now, I finally got a new bigger bra and I swear from the time I bought it to the time I took it off I out grew it! Good luck to everyone!

Hey my fellow Pregos lol...i am 14 weeks pregnant and on top of of the pure exhaustion I am getting headaches on a daily basis. My doctor prescribed me floicet but the pharmacist recommened i don't take it due to birth defects also you really can't do much when you due take it anyway..I am taking unisom at night to help me rest better but it also helps me to not be sick and vomiting the next day as well.

coolgirl talk to your doctor i was no more than 24weeks and my doc told me i was 1cm dialted and 50 almst 75% afaced (thined out) sorry my spelling isnt the best right now and had some bed rest but my dd is now 3 and everything went well but call ur doc now and go in for a visit!!!!!!!! good luck coolgirl

It's so great to get on here and see that everyone else is experiencing the same things I am. I don't feel so crazy :) 14 weeks today, no more morning sickness, but major headaches!!!

IM 14 almost 15 weeks and im having really sharp pains right above my vagina should i go to the emergency room?

The first day of my lmp was March 11. I had to get immunization shots 2 weeks ago and the since I didn't get my period yet they wanted me to take a pregnancy test. It was negative two weeks ago but they wanted to wait another two weeks for me to get my MMR shot. I didn't get my period at all in April so I bought a pregnancy test. It showed positive on 2 dollar store tests, ept and on the first response, the test part was very dark and the control line barely showing. What does this mean?

Hey everyone! I am 14 weeks, high-risk, but I am doing great. I haven't has m/s in 9 days. The toothpaste I use was a trigger for me so I changed some things up. I am excited, yet nervous. I still don't feel like I'm pregnant yet but I have a ton of stuff to do before the little one arrives!!

can u tell wat ur having at 14 weeks

Hey anybody trying to hide their pregnancy at work? I am trying to keep it low key until I know I have signed my contract for next year, they are laying off so many teachers! At least I just look bloated right now, hoping I wont show until schools out!

im 14 weeks, and in a few days ill be 15 weeks...im still having really bad morning sickness. I was admitted to the hospital for about 8 hours around week 12 due to dehydration. Im doing a little better than I was, but I still cant keep much down.... including my prenatal vitamins... Is this going to cause any long term problems for me? At this point, I dont really know what to do anymore.. the doctors did all they could to help the morning sickness..but we all know how that goes.

hhaberman- The out of breath is not really being out of breath. I was told by my doctor that it is oxygen hunger. Your lungs actually have more lung capacity and can take in more oxygen. I also heard dizziness was normal, I get it from time to time and lose my balance as well. I hope this helps.

im at the end of my 14 weeks!! So exciting!! I barely show to others but I sure have noticed how hard it is to button up my pants!! lol yoga pants are pretty much necessary now haha just a few more weeks till we get to find out the gender!!! get excited everyone!! :)

Regarding nausea, a natural remedy that I found REALLY helps is pickled ginger (like used with sushi). I got mine at a Chinese food store. If I'm feeling sick, I eat a piece and within about 30 seconds, the nausea is GONE!! I'm not a vomitter, so I don't know if it'll help stop vomiting, but I can attest to the fact that it gets rid of the queeziness. I carry a few pieces with me wherever I go. It's worth a try if you're desperate!

I am 14 weeks today....YAY....I began having back and right hip pain, so since we are pregnant there is VERY limited pain relief for anything. I have begun seeing a chirpractor, this has not only helped with my hip pain, but also helped my overall perspective of my body. I would HIGHLY recommend seeing a chiropractor, but just make sure they are aware of your pregnancy and I also recommend you go to one that adjust children as well. He was telling me that when our babies are born and they are being pulled out by their head (no matter how you deliver) they are twisted and this movement right there can cause spinal injury which increases risk of SIDS. The chiropractor can come see you in the hospital after delivery and give the baby their first adjustment to decrease those risk and help heal the injury. If any of you are like me and get weekly updates, the first thing to form in our babies and us are our brain and spines, so I feel it is very important that it be protected and taken care of. I also have started an aquacise program, it is the BEST thing I could ask for, no sweat, and relaxing water. I stay exhausted and can't sleep at night to get comfortable, but this helps me sleep at night. This is really GREAT!! Good luck to you all.

It is interesting to see the comments about m/s that are so similar to what I have been going through. My morning sickness threw me into ER a couple of time because could not keep anything down either or if I didn't eat "in time" I would get sick. Everyone kept saying (Drs) that it was just apart of being pregnant. Finally had one dr diagnose me with acid reflux not heart burn or m/s acid reflux. Once I got some meds for it, it helped. Not completely stop but comfortable for most part. Not always throwing up. Now if I could just stay energized.

yes, more discharge is "normal" iv had a lof for the most of my pregnancy. im actually 13 and a half weeks. i actually feel like my headached are worse and im now getting heart burn. where iv never had heart burn in my life. :) i feel more tired too. but iv been really blessed and have no morning sickenss. (knock on wood) well see. i mean ya iv dry heaved but nothing major ;) im experiencing slight cramping. but not less than i did when i was 6-9 weeks. i had a lot of cramping then. saw the heart beat at 9 weeks. i get to hear it tomorrow. im praying for good results. im pretty moody. and my tummy is def pooching out. this is my first and im 26 and 5'5 and weighed 130. if that gives other girls a better idea of what others are going throught. :) i was a runner before and still am. i toned it down a lot though. im down from 2-3 miles a day with sprints and stairs and hills. to about a mile a day. i still do stairs but with less intensity. my boobs were very sore at first but not anymore. im def thicker!!!! lol

at least 8 glasses of water is an understatement. One should drink their body weight in ounces divided by 1/2 (at least!). I live in the Arizona desert, I drink a gallon a day, sometimes more. If I feel low on electrolytes (which is rarely), Pedialyte is a great fix.

I'm trying to safe money, and buy prego cloths when I really start showing. Is it ok to still wear tight cloth? when I'm not really showing? I have gained only 4 punds but few cloth barely fits me..

14 weeks as of tomorrow. It's funny, I haven't told anyone at work, and they all say I have a glow. They think it's because I got married last week. ;)

VCVELA- Congratulations!!! 23 years WOW....GOD is good.

turning 14 weeks pregnant this c0ming friday June 10 and schedule for prenatal scheck up this friday.... Sooo excited!! I can't wait to hopefully hear my little baby's heartbeat...!

Any one else having extreme leg pains at night? I'm thinking it's my sciatica. My mom had the same issues with us kids :( so far no relief.....I'm just exercising regularly...hoping it will go away soon...

hi ladies am 14 weeks and having severe soar throat and feeling light headed.. my doctor said to just take tylenold but its not helping..

I'm 14 weeks along now, and my pelvic bone hurts like crazy! It's just saying sore down there, and it's not like the skin is bruised or sore muscle type pain, it's like the bone is changing or something, and it is SO sore! This is my second pregnancy so I didn't think that my body would be changing in this way since my hips and pelvis already widened for the first one.... I just don't know why I' m so sore!!!!

Happy 14th week every 1!!! I just found out tuesday that I am having a BOY. The Dr. told me if it looked like a girl he would wait until I was 16weeks just to be sure but When he looked there it was as bright as day.... I know its early but I have been shopping like crazy... toys R us is having a big sale on Winter stuff $2.14BOGO I stocked up and each item was 2.41 bogo... yeay

I am 14week today, and that is a milestone after lose of 7 pregnancies and having my tubes tied 2 years ago. Everything about this pregnancy scares me cause I am scared of another lose. I pray every night to see me through this with the miracle bundle growing inside me.On a good not, not alot of morning sickness, still tired all the time. But this morning I woke up to the clear feeling of my champion moving inside my belly, it has been all day long. Even though I am scared, I am totally excited about it all. Good luck ladies, enjoy these times.

Is it ok to take Hydroco/apap 5-325 for really bad pain? my dr prescribed it to me but im not sure? And it has already made me faint and i was in the middle of the store and all this on call dr said was to just lay down and relax.But im scared something may be wrong with the baby.i just need anyone's opinion on this i have never had it with my 1st pregnancy.

Has anyone else expierence major dizziness? I almost passed out in a dept. store yesterday. Really scary - had to sit down on the floor in the middle of the store, blacked out and couldnt see, then got cold sweats and really shaky. Read in my preggo books that this is normal?!? How can that be normal?

I am 12 weeks today and I feel great!!! Sometimes I question if i'm pregnant because i'm not tired and have no morning sickness. I feel so lucky! People are starting to notice a little belly bump!!! bye bye abs

anyone else's mouth water 24/7?! i can't drink water because my stomach is constantly full of liquid, and it makes me sicker. no m/s relief either. 14 weeks along, praying for help!

14 weeks pregnant with identical twins. Tummy poochin a little.......wish there was more information on twins!

Finally past that scary stage of worrying if I was going to lose this baby too. Feeling good. Belly sticking out. My family and friends are starting to notice. We didn't tell many people due to the recent miscarriage. I'm just so happy!!!

Coolgirl.. my cervix did that with my 4th pregnancy 2nd birth and i had to take supossators or however u spell it ... but i stuck one in my vagina every night for the whole pregnancy... talk to ur doctor and hurry

I am in the 14th week and i still have the morning sickness very bad. The doc had to give me some pills that i can eat something, i pray that this pass soon. I am also exhausted because of this.... and i can sleep a lot it is amazing how the body changes... wish everybody a wonderful week

Coolgirl, the others are right, it sounds like you may have a weak cervix, and they'll probably do a cerclage. I'm actually scheduled to have one done in two days. My daughter was born at 24 weeks, and they think that may have been the cause of her premature delivery. I'm a little nervous, but its just an outpatient surgery, and I'll do anything to keep history from repeating itself with this baby.

I'm exhausted!

Hello i am 14 weeks as well and have the exact same little pains from my uterus growing,I have gotten over the morning sickness thank god I could not wait for the second trimester.I notice the slight head aches i get about one a day but I read many books and thats normal i have noticed my belly is growing I love it,its the most amazing thing I have ever experienced I cant wait to feel it move either I have already felt this slight fluter feeling cant really explain it but every one says its the baby!what else would it be .

Will be 15 weeks tomorrow. Still have m/s all day long and toss my cookies at night. I also found out yesterday that my gall bladder is bad and the doctor already told me to be on a low fat diet because of my symptoms. Hope the pain doesn't get any worse with it. As the baby gets bigger the less room you have inside and I am afraid my pain will increase even more. Not sure how my body will handle that.

Week 14 was one of the hardest ones for my wife. She experienced many various health problems but it looks like everything is getting normal now. Thank for posting some great advices here. They really help a lot. Regards, Adam from viagra pris

going threw some stress of what to do seeings my step-daughter is in and out of our life because of her mom, Now I wonder how do I keep my kids from being hurt by this woman. My 3yr old misses his sister dearly and I hate when he asks me to see her when it isn't up to me do I let this continue or What do I do???????

14 Weeks, still no bump, is it too soon to be waddling? Is it in my head? My family teases me because I am not big at all. I try not too, but I can't help it.

I'm having a lot of aches and pains down there, esp after sitting at my desk all day. I am very excited though because I've started feeling the baby move. It took me nearly a week to realize that was what it was but know that I know it's the most amazing feeling!

mscoleman1 - I'm 14 weeks too and have been extremely tired. I've found that drinking lots of cold water give me energy.

When can you feel the heartbeat through your stomach, i usually put my hand on my stomach and i can feel the heartbeat which is fast so at what week could i be at even though it says 14 weeks?

im 14 1/2 weeks and ugh! My mouth wont stop watering. Its not even when im looking at food! But it does get worse when im cooking. Am I the only one experiencing this?

Jules3352 - I am 14 weeks also and am definitely aware of the baby inside me! I think it's because my uterus is so much bigger than normal and is growing. From what I've heard, it is normal to start feeling the baby between 16-20 weeks, so it might still be early to feel the baby at this point. Hope it is soon for you - I am really excited to feel my baby!

Hello! I am 14 weeks today and still tired as ever and feeling huge. Hoping I catch a break on being tired so much.. but if not, I can count it as practice for when the baby is here ;-)

I have had m/s since the week I found out I was pregnant and the only thing that seems to settle my tummmie (temporarily of course) is a glass of lemon water. To you all who have the same problem, it's worth a shot! Also, pickles are a safe food for me too!! Hang in there girls!

Im 14w 1d and so far I have gained 12 lbs...is that normal or too much?? I really don't want to struggle losing the weight after our baby is born...how much has everyone else gained?? I also heard someone say doc's usually say 1 lb a week is good...

hi ladies! i am 14 weeks today and my m/s is finally letting up... it is not totally gone but i can go like three days of feeling great and then i am down for two days morning, noon and night of m/s. i am starting to get a little bump it is kind of surreal but i am enjoying seeing it everyday. i cant wait to know what it is. but brushing my teeth is really hard lol i have to throw up everytime do you think i should change toothepaste or what?

I am 15 weeks and I have a weird issue. My fiance and I were having sex and I peed on him. Is that normal? I didn't feel like I had to go and I didn' realize that I had peed until afterwards. This has never happened before and I am worried.

Not sure if this will help some ppl out here but I will tell you any ways. I have an amazing midwife. When I was sick I told her all of what was happening to me over the phone. For 5 days I upper tummy cramping and the last 2 of those 5 days I really bad diarrhea. I new that diarrhea is the last resort for your body to try to get rid of some thing as I watched Dr. OZ many times and he said be grateful that your body is trying to dispose of it(sickness). So when I told my midwife about all of this happening to me over the phone because she is an hour and 35 mins from me she said. It sounds like you have a bacteria or virus. Then she told me to fast for 18 to 24 hours. I never thought in a million yrs you could fast while PG. She said it's fine to do for 18 to 24 hours. She asked me to not eat any foods at all. I only could drink water all broths with water and teas. She also said it would be fine if I juiced out of my juicer but not to get any of the juices in the stores. I decided to not juice at all so I just drank the water broths and water and teas. I did Rasberry and peppermint teas. I fasted for 23 hours all together and started it right away so that I would feel better. I couldn't believe it after the 23 hours was up. the next day I was just fine. 5 Days of bad cramping and my diarrhea for 2 days was all gone. Done! Man was I happy and I never payed a cent to her for the call. It was like a docs visit for free but even better over the phone. I did thank her the next time I saw her. She has 1,200 babies born under her watch and that is another 1,200 mothers also she has helped plus fathers. She is so amazing. I used to fast all the time about 1 once a month or twice a month before this to let my body have a brake and my skin loved it too. But I would have never thought that you can do this if your sick. So to all the mothers out there try it out. You have nothing to lose but your sickness.

hhaberman, I had a lot of that with my first pregnancy and am starting to have it more with my second. My dr wasn't concerned about it at all and said it was most likely due to my body adjusting to the huge increase in the amount of blood running through my body (I typically have fairly low blood pressure and with the increased blood my blood pressure drops even more when I get pregnant making the dizziness even more common). I would definately talk to your dr about it to make sure he/she knows incase it is a warning sign when combined with some other symptom you have but overall don't get too stressed over it. Keep drinking lots of water and sit down when it happens so that you don't actually pass out and risk hitting your head/belly etc.

I am 14.5 weeks!!!! I have all day sickness!!! But I will take it if that means this baby is OK!! I got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat!!! What an amazing feeling!!!!! I also have discharge and the Doc said that is was OK! I wonder if it is too early to look into the childbirth classes?

I don't have any morning sickness anymore and I'm really starting to show. I'm chubby anyway, but my belly is obviously pregnant now. Only thing I dislike right now is gas and weird discharge. I have a lot of energy, though!

Anyone else feel like they are hardly showing? I HAVE had to switch over to pants with a little bit of stretch, but I don't feel like I look like there's a little one growing in there at all!
