Any good pregnancy journals out there that I can buy?
Something along the lines of tracking progress of pregnancy. I think it would be fun to do and have around as a keepsake.
Hopefully someone can tell me where I might find a good one.
There are two books that I like. What To Expect When You Are Expecting is a good one and they revise and update their additions regularly. Authors are Heidi Murkoff, Arlene Eisenberg and Sandee Hathaway. The other book is Pregnancy Sucks by Joanne Kimes. I found them both informative and humorous.

A recent study in Israel found that women suffering from morning sickness could safely consume a particular anti-nausea drug, Metoclopramide, without harming their unborn child. The drug was tested during a large study. According to experts, the result of the study has the potential to greatly impact how doctors take care of morning sickness because now, mothers have safe pharmaceutical option.
At this time, there is no morning sickness drug approved for consumption in the United States. Statistically, most women suffer from morning sickness during the first trimester of pregnancy. Some are subjected to morning sickness considerably longer and a small percentage is sick during the entire pregnancy. In the past, physicians have utilized strategies including eating small meals on a frequent basis or eating crackers to ward off nausea.
In Israel, the study examined approximately 82,000 births in which metoclopramide was used. The research indicates that there is no difference regarding natal problems and birth defects between women who did or did not take the drug.
According to New York’s Mount Sinai M.C. obstetrics director, Dr. Keith Eddleman, the study’s findings are “comforting.” Eddleman went on to say that many mothers are unwilling simply based on stories they have heard and the idea that they might cause injury to the baby.
The complete results were recently printed in the New England Journal of Medicine. While its findings are encouraging, it is important to note that the study did not consider the effectiveness of the drug itself.
For many, morning sickness is less than a nuisance, but for others, it can make the pregnancy extremely difficult. Some expecting mothers have experienced severe weight loss during pregnancy. Regardless, mothers and doctors alike have been reluctant to utilize drugs to combat the illness because of the possibility of complications in the pregnancy or fetus.
For example, in the 1960′s both Canada and Europe utilized a drug called Thalidomide that was later found to produce newborns with shortened or missing limbs. In the 1980′s another company released Bendectin that many claimed also caused deformities in the limbs. Studies of the drug never actually linked the drug to the deformities. But still, the idea of harming the fetus lingers in the minds of mothers and their doctors.
Studying the use of anti-nausea medication in pregnant women is considered controversial considering the possibility of accidentally harming the fetuses involved in the study.

Is the test says 5 days before surgery was lost in the first pregnancy period test flow over 99%. with 3 tests in the box. my period was due on 14 January and is now 17. I live in Australia dates to be different if you live elsewear in the world. I tested yesterday morning and had a faint line appeared – but if I looked close enough to the right of the light had a line which is +. only took about 3 minutes to see a little worried that it might be the UN took another told me this morning at 06:30 and, of course, in just few seconds and the line is a little darker, but it is easier to see and I could see in low light. So if I took two trials and two had a faint line that still means a right +? Also me and my other half trying to get pregnant for about 6 months. so I do not want my hopes. i will be programming a medical appointment in the coming years (2) weeks
Congratulations, you're pregnant! The same thing happened with my two children, as I have tried in the first time. My doctor told me that no matter how low line – positive is positive, especially if you did the test twice with the result. Pregnancy tests 99.9% accuracy. The line is weak because she is pregnant and whether they would be tested within weeks, would be darker.

Why do some pregnant women rub pregnancy in all directions?
I know I could be sensitive, I had a miscarriage and been unable to conceive since then. It just seems that all these teenagers get pregnant and shows all over the place … and accepted. My husband and I've been trying so hard believe, and believe that we would be parents. Rubbing hurts me to see people, but some just take it too far (updated their facebook / myspace status every 6 seconds For example: I just launched my hurt poor little baby). It's very annoying! I'm not jealous. Believe me I know how it feels to be pregnant, I was once if you read my message correctly. I feel as if people who hold obsessively! I think I'm very sensitive about this … but I have the right to be. I lost a child before of and is painful for me to see others succeed where I do not want the baby.
Laura, I'm sorry for this you have lived. I know the pain of an abortion involuntary and stillbirth. I can see how the other speakers and going on about would be very, very hard. Try not to take it personally. I know it's difficult to do because I did. Do not rub your face, do not really know what they have lived or still live. Some of us do well, and remember that we know how much they are wrong.

Heavy lifting during pregnancy?
I have 9 weeks of pregnancy. My doctor told me the belief that "things can lift heavy cause miscarriage "was a myth. He says he" can not raise your baby with you. "However, I also know that doctors have different philosophies different and often give different advice. So I was wondering if anyone had heard anything similar or out of your own doctor? I only ask because as a teacher, I'm trying to pass my class and we will move soon to a new home, so, of course, be able to spend a lot of heavy things. What do you think … not based the wives of the witnesses, but from what you read in medical journals or have been told by your doctor?
The doctors told me not to lift anything heavy £ 25. The exception is, of course, if you already have a child … my 22 months weighs 30 pounds and can not go a day without him raising at least a few times.

Pregnancy Journals… Any Ideas?
With my First 2 kids I tried to document everything during pregnancy so that I would have some record… but with this one, I don’t have the money to buy a “book” so Do you all know of any good online sites where I can find questions, or things that would be good to inlclude in a journal that i make on my own?? I’ve looked but am having a lot of trouble finding things.
I kept a pregnancy diary, I just bought a notebook, decorated it myself and kept a record of things – I started with how I found out I was pregnant, how I felt about it, then a record of my symptoms, my growing bump, of every doctors appointment and what happened at them, my hopes and fears about baby etc. There’s nothing specific I think you SHOULD include, just make it from the heart. Congratulations!

Two very weak positive results in pregnancy 10 and 11 DPO pregnant?
I took a pregnancy test yesterday morning (first morning urine) Results of early pregnancy and I had a line is very weak response to the command line. I also took another this morning has the same thing. Lines of both appeared in 2 minutes. I have two more days until AF is due and I will take a day and another the next day. Make two lines of medium-low I'm definitely pregnant? I had many symptoms of pregnancy, but most among them are the same as my symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, but more intense. I had cramps on and off, my breasts are extremely painful, a bit darker nipples, and I felt nauseous the morning after only a couple trying to eat something. My back starts to feel bad now that it is common for me when I come PMS when AF. Has anyone had this same experience and was actually pregnant? Thanks guys! I'll get other brands and test tomorrow morning! I hope it's positive too!
I can tell you that I had exactly the same experience with the responses of the first results and, finally, is not pregnant. I would like to get another quick result of the brand and see what results are in this (objectives have always been very successful for me). I know he can be very frustrating when you just want to know.

Do you all agree with this?
It has been proven in small studies that pre-ejaculation doesn’t have any sperm, and any sperm is left over in the uretha from a previous ejaculation. Can we now agree that Pulling Out is not perfect because a man may orgasm in a woman even for a second and the sperm is from that two seconds of orgasm in a woman. So imagine a guy coming, then a second later realizing he has to pull out. Do you agree that THAT is the reason people get pregnant with Pulling Out?
“Pre-ejaculatory fluid secreted at the tip of the urethra from Cowper’s gland during sexual stimulation did not contain sperm and therefore cannot be responsible for pregnancies during coitus interruptus”
my husband and i used it for 2 years with no complications (yes i knew there was risk) and when we decided to try for a baby we got pregnant the very first month, so obviously we are fertile.

It is a biophysical profile and all routine tests were done during my pregnancy, remains .. coincidence?
I just had a biophysical profile done on my baby the other day because my blood pressure was high and everything was normal, I'm in my baby's 3D image and she looks great, and normal. I have 37 weeks and weighed 6 pounds 14 oz more or less than 7 oz Ultrasound Tech told me. I also all underwent blood tests and projections made during my pregnancy that rountine. Am induced on Thursday when I'm 38 1 / 2 weeks because my blood pressure. My question is: If I did all these tests and everything was fine and normal, is still a good possibility something might be wrong with it at birth? Sad only worry about things, trying to prepare for anything. Thanks in advance for the answers ..
I believe that high blood pressure, more concern than be with you! I had two friends-induced blood pressure and their babies are very good! Good luck!

Nutrition During Pregnancy, expecting moms are often motivated to improve pregnancy nutrition by wanting to do the right thing for their developing babies. You are besides yourself with joy as you see that your pregnancy test is postive. You find yourself already caressing your stomach in hopes that your little one can feel you.
The next nine months are going to be an exciting time for you and your baby. You need to make sure that you are eating all the right things for you and to make you sure you have a thriving healthy baby. You are going to have a human life grow inside of you and feel them move as they get bigger.
Your baby is going to go from a single sperm and egg into pounds of adorable flesh that you can’t help but kiss over and over again. It truly is a miracle.
In order to help this miracle along, it is essential for you to eat as good as you can through out most of your pregnancy. Nutrition in the first days and weeks are a major reason the mothers nutrition before pregnancy is so important is that it determines whether her uterus will be able to support the growth of a healthy placenta during the first month of gestation.
Never in a your life has nutrition been so important as when you are pregnant and nursing. As your baby continues to change and grow, so do your nutritional needs. By taking just one small, easy-to-swallow capsule each day, you can take the guesswork out of nutrition and rest assured that you and your baby are receiving the proper nutrition you both need.
To gain the appropriate amount of weight and ensure good nutrition for you and your growing baby, you should eat when you are hungry, eat small portions, choose healthful snacks like vegetables and such.
The first three months might be a little difficult to eat balanced meals when you are dealing with food aversions and commode hugging morning sickness. If you are one of the rare lucky ones whose stomach doesn’t so much as move during your first trimester, then you can take full advantage of eating healthy right out of the gate.
Making sure you eat balanced nutritious meals is laying down the foundation for your baby. A diet of junk food is not going to help your baby with bone development and organ formation. Potato chips will not help with brain development. Your baby and your body need calcium and vitamins to achieve all of this.
Eating well during pregnancy is going to help your baby eat well after it is born and on solid foods. As your pregnancy progresses, some of what you eat will cross the placenta and the taste will be in the babys amniotic fluid. Babies swallow this fluid and their taste buds are so develop that even in the womb they are able to taste the flavors.
Doctors believe that babies who are exposed to a wide variety of fruit and vegetables while in utero have less of a chance of being a fussy eater later in life. They believe that these are the babies who will eat their fruit and vegetables without putting up any fight.
Doctors also believe that moms who drink their milk through out their pregnancy have an easier time weaning their babies from formula or breast milk to regular milk. This however is only one benefit, the other benefit of drinking milk throughout your pregnancy is all the calcium you will be giving your baby’s bones.
Many doctors recommend that you drink at least one eight oz glass of milk, usually fat free a day. Calcium is a must have for your baby’s bones and his teeth, even though you won’t see his teeth for at least a few months.
This isn’t to say that you have to stay away from all sweets all the time. You can indulge every now and then and thanks to cravings you may find yourself wanting sweets more often than not. You do have to keep it in moderation. Being pregnant should not be looked at as an excuse to eat whatever you want for nine months. Both you and your baby could pay a dear price.
Vitamin A helps the development of baby’s bones and teeth, as well as their heart, ears, eyes and immune system (the body system that fights infection). Vitamin B6 can be found in fortified cereals, as well as bananas, baked potatoes, watermelon, chick peas and chicken breast.
Vitamin B12 works hand in hand with folic acid to help both Mom and baby produce healthy red blood cells, and it helps develop the fetal brain and nervous system.
Vitamin C can be found in citrus fruits, raspberries, bell peppers, green beans, strawberries, papaya, potatoes, broccoli and tomatoes, as well as in many cough drops and other supplements. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, leading to healthy bones for both mother and baby.
Vitamin E helps baby’s body to form and use its muscles and red blood cells. Sufficient intake of vitamins and minerals is crucial for baby development during the entire 40 weeks. To support this amazing growth you need more nutrients. You will need more calories, more protein, and more vitamins.
