I’m having this now at 10 weeks also. But mine is darker. Did your pregnancy end up ok?

Ladies help please!

Hi ladies! So I recently found out I was expecting and I’ve had slim to none cm and I’ve read that I should be having at least some! Has anyone experienced this, is this something I should be worried about or am I just overreacting!?!

Mr

Hi, I know this is an old post but I'm in the same boat right now. I'm 3 days from my missed period and got faint lines starting at 11 dpo. Took and frer 2 days before missed period and it's positive. Went to have my blood work done yesterday and it was only at a 6. Can you please share your experience? How far along were you at 6 and did it get better? Thank you so much

Pregnant with occasional brown discharge

So I just found out I was pregnant on Thursday. And last night when I wiped there was a little light brownish discharge. I put on a panty liner before bed. Nothing on it when I woke. And no more for the first half of today. Around 2pm I peed again and when I wiped there was little more. I'm freaking out. I dont know how far along I am as I have PCOS and my periods are all crazy and my cycles can be 40 plus days long. I'm not in any pain. Here are my test from the past 4 daysAnd her is the discharge. It's not very much and has seemed to stop for now

I never threw up only ever had nausea

Is this normal?

Please be kind as I have struggled with TTC and pregnancies for a long time now. I got a positive on a test yesterday and this morning I woke up to pelvic and vaginal sharp cramping. What could be happening? If you are going to be insensitive or say something hurtful, please do not comment on this post.

Breastfeeding and pregnant

Anyone get pregnant when still exclusively pumping or breastfeeding their little one? My daughter is 8 months old corrected but 1 years old chronological (micro-preemie) and I’m feeding her purée but I also give her bottles and I pump for an hour or longer 4 times a day. My question though did any of y’all dry up during? Or did it stay the same?

Week 2

Is it normal

I'm nearly 4 weeks pregnant and obviously overjoyed but I can't shake this scared feeling. It's my first baby and just worrying that it's not real or something is going to happen. I know it's bad to be in this mindset did anyone else go through this?

2 weeks behind in ultrasound

I went to my first appointment last week and I thought I was 7 weeks & 4 days , but during my ultrasound they told me I am 5 weeks & 5 days . But the ultrasound tech said everything looked perfect and there was a heart beat . However I had a misscarige a couple months ago that I was behind in the weeks , but from the start they said it was abnormal , but with this pregnancy they said everything looks normal just early . Should I be worried ? I don’t wanna get my hopes up .

I don’t think you should worry . Especially sometimes ultrasounds aren’t always accurate . As long as baby has a good heart rate try not to worry .

Maca ok?

Anyone else taking Maca Powder during the first trimester? I know it helps with getting pregnant and regulating your hormones but there isn’t anything online about taking it after?? I know it’s supposed to be a natural root and had a lot of health benefits as well.

Tramadol

I have a pretty large fibroid and it’s been causing severe pain. My OBGYN prescribed Tramadol and gravol. Tramadol for the pain and Gravol the nausea the Tramadol may cause. Now I’ve been researching the drug Tramadol and I’ve been seeing some pretty bad things tbh I’m horrified to take these! Has anyone else here taken this drugs? Did you have side effects? Did it affect tour baby? I’m now 17 weeks and 3 days pregnant and my baby is fantastic! Just mama’s in some pain. My doctor assured me the medication is safe but I’m still a but skeptical about taking it. I took a panadol instead that worked for a while. Please all advice is welcomed.

Yes completely normal!! As long as it stays brown. Doctor told me if it’s your first pregnancy you body will mimic a period by spotting and it’s usually brown. But that’s all it is. But keep monitoring it. Normal in the first 4-5 weeks.

when did you start showing on your 2nd baby?

i am pregnant with #2 and I'm wondering when i should expect to start showing?. i didn't show til 20 weeks with my first, but I'm trying to keep this a secret. my friend was showing a bit already at 9 weeks! Hoping it takes a little longer for me.

I’m on baby number 6 I’m 15 weeks n not showing just fatter lol I’m hiding mine to with my last one I was able to hide it for 8minths my other ones I was showing at 5 months

What’s going on?

I got my period January 28th-February 5th and February 25th-March 3rd. But I got a positive pregnancy March 5th and my hCG level was 16. Now, March 20th my hCG is at 1,300. My expected period is March 25th. Do you girls think I’m having twins? Due to the high hCG level at this time and the early positive hpt? I have a family history of twins. Also, they thought I was 5 weeks but they can’t see anything on an ultrasound yet. So I’m thinking I’m just early along with twins but I don’t know.
