Is there anything I can do to help ease cramps in my preggo gf's lower abdomen? My girlfriend is about 7-7.5 months pregnant and keeps getting these sharp pangs in her lower abdomen. They happen pretty randomly, but also while we are being.. uh, intimate. Idk what to do about it, or how I can help. Is there any type of supplement she can take, or is this normal? or what? This is our first pregnancy, so we're both kinda babes in the woods about these things, can anyone help? |
| Not sure why no one has answered yet...is she having Braxton Hicks contractions? If that's what she's having, they're totally normal, I had them all the time from about six months on. Tell her to take deep, calming breaths until they pass. They do tend to happen more often when you're dehydrated, so make sure she drinks plenty of fluids (no caffeine). Also, taking warm baths really helped with mine, but only temporarily. |
I keep feeling like my period is coming. I am breastfeeding? def not preggo babe is 15 weeks
been getting this a week or so it comes and goes throughout the day
it shouldnt be my uterus that already shrank??? |
Maybe you're getting your period. Do you give bottles at all? That can make your period come early.
I always had a period while I was breastfeeding. Some women do. |

| Who means more some LITTLE BOY or YOUR BABY. Beacuse at the end oof the day if he cant even be bothered to see how you are doing then f*** him off, (sorry about the language) I just really hate men that still act like guyren when they are going to be having a baby soon, if he is like this now how is he going to be when the baby is born? PLEASE dont get stressed out i lost my daughter at 22 wekks because my boyfriends family were giving me stress and i ended up going into labour. When you have your baby wether he is there or not you will be a single mum but it wont matter because you will have enough love for your baby i understand that you dont want to be because you need support but come on how much support is he giving you now and if anything happens (touch wood it wont) on his head be it and let him no that. Dont change your number and blank him if he ever trys to phone or text, you could send him a message and say you no my number call me if you want to no how me and your baby are oh and by the way i think its time you grew up if you dont want anything to do in either of our lives belive me when i say you didnt wear a glove it takes to, to tango and you will finacly be supporting the baby. Congrates on the baby and no matter what single mums are just as good as having to parents xXx |
If your baby was here today would you be ready? he he I am due MAY 17 with my second baby . Would you be ready today and could take them home I would on clothes and diapers but want to have some dinners cooked and frozen ready to go and to have the grocery shopping done to the month . Just for fun even if you are Just barley preggo would you be ready4 you babe? |
| I am only 17 weeks and don't have anything. I'm not one of those moms who buy stuff early in pregnancy. I wait until after the baby shower. I'm having 2 of them, so I might not need to buy anything for a little while, except diapers, formula, wipes......etc. |
Need help with baby names...? I am looking to get preggo in september, we are using fert drugs to increse our chance of multiples...currently we have 2 boys (ages 5 and 2) we really really really want a girl(s).
We have a family thing going on with our names:
Ashlee
Benjamin
Christopher
Dominic...see the pattern (A, B, C, D, etc.)
so if we do have 2 babes and suppose they are girls, we will need a E and F for each. Be creative...Thanks! |
I like Emily and Freya.
Just incase I like Eddie and Felipe for boys
I wish you luck with everything |
When or did you stop? I'm almost 21 weeks preggo with twins, for the most part have had a pretty good pregnancy, just more intense symptoms than with our first. I'm just wondering if anyone knows or can say from personal experience at what point it was considered a risk to have sex with your partner? My hubby is great, and we are intimate when I feel up to it, but I want to take care of his needs too. We see the OB next week and will have our 4-d ultrasounds to check on the health of the babes, but I was just wondering because it's now considered high risk if there's just a certain point it's considered unsafe? |
You're in your 2nd trimester right? It's natural that you're sexually more active during this time anyway.
But once you hit round about 28 to 30 weeks. Try refraining, or be more cautious. |
Breastfeeding question... please help? I am 36 weeks preggo, and I am wondering when my breasts will start to express fluid? I know it usually happens after delivery, but I am worried it might take a while until the babe will be able to even suck colostrum. If i try to manually express now, i get nothing. is this normal. i worry because i want to be able to breastfeed shortly after (hopefully within an hour or so) but will my breasts let down the colostrum that quickly after delivering? Do you think I'll have to supplement formula the first feed or so? Thanks for all who answer. |
Relax, your body knows when it needs to produce. Your baby's suckling and the contracting of your uterus post-delivery will signal your body. I had plenty of milk with both guyren and didn't leak AT ALL pre-birth.
EDIT: I also flipped out when a couple hours after my first birth when I pumped (baby was in the nursery) and only got 1/2 a teaspoon of colostrum... I now know that's normal. Your baby has a tiny tummy and will feed frequently at first. Your body will produce more to meet your baby's demand. |
What does this mean? what does break through bleeding and bleeding from attachment to the uterus mean ive been told these are causes of spotting in early pregnancy like me 7 weeks preggo and spotting no pain or anything im 16 and preg with first babe i want to be safe me and my bf want this baby so much so what do these to things mean (mentioned at beggining of expanation) |
| Talk to your doctor about it and for heaven's sake ask anything you want. If you don't have a doctor get one and fast. Talk to your local family planning clinic. |
