i think i am.

Quote From: ashley708

That is how my mom is. Hers would come back neg for 5 months. You can have an ultrasound done if you complain long enough to an ob doctor, I have had to do that. They can do a blood test also. The only thing you can do otherwise is be careful, and wait .....just incase you truely are pregnant

hi there,

i think that i am pregant because i am now starting to feel two faint heart beats and my hubby can feel two small heads. and i am no longer allowed to call the father on the phone. he thought that when i called him  tha ti was threatening him but i was trying to warn him that there are people that want to talk to him on my behalf. amd my staomache is getting bigger and my face is glowing more.

please help

hi there,

i think i may be pregnant but my husband doesn't believe me. and i will get the results from a test tomorrow. i am just scared that it is not going to come back positive. i really want to have kids. but the doc. and some other people are saying that it may be something else. what do i do? if it isn't pregnant i have to tell the guy who would have been a father that the test came back negative but i am scared that i am going to lose him forever as a friend. i know that i have lost him any ways but i can't handle rejection and if i am not pregnant i am scared that i am going to hurt my self because i always wanted to have kids. what do i do?

wanting another baby

Hi I have been married to my second husband for over 7 years now.  I have 3 children from a previous marriage.  I love being a mom.  My first marriage was a very abusive one so I made a decision to have my tubes clamped after my daughter was born so I wouldnt bring another child into that kind of situation anyway a few years later i decided my kids and I dont have to live like that so i moved on.  My husband now is an awesome man and I would love to have a baby with him I am 36 so i feel time is running out.  The problem is the city near me does not do the reverse surgery anymore so I am at a loss as to what to do.  Artifical insemenation is way to expensive for us we both work full time but arent rich but we could afford another child.  In canada here artifical insemenation isnt covered by health care but abortions are makes sense doesnt it.  I was just wondering if anyone knows any other routes we could go.  Thanks God Bless Darrnan

Getting Pregnant

Hi All,

 

I don't even know why I'm posting here. But I think I've just found out I'd really love to get pregnant. It's weird, because I never saw myself as a mum...

 

My boyfriend and I have only been together for a year, so it's still a bit too soon. Plus he's a few years younger then me (I'm 30) and I'm deciding for him he's still too young. Is this the infamous biological clock ticking?

 

It's quite exciting. I didn't expect that. Over the last months I secretly hoped to get pregnant everytime we made love, but I'm on the pill. I would never trick him into anything, so I'll have to be patient.

 

Enjoy,

 

Leonie

Getting Pregnant

Quote From: colinslillady

I just found out due to medical issues that i only have a small amount of time right now that i will be able to have a child. My husband and i have know for a while that this might happen and he always said that we would have a baby if it came to this. I  have one toddler from a previous relationship and it is very important to me to have another child. When i told him he was excited and now he has decided that he dosent want to and that it would interfer with his life and work and he says it will ruin all his plans in life. I am totally confused and i dont know how to talk to him about this. I love him to death please if you have advice it would be appreciated. I dont think that he understands the impact this decision will have on the rest of our life.

If you think he doesn't understand, I guess you could start there...to explain why it's so important. I think if one of both partners doesn't want to have a child, you can't force them. There is no middle ground.

But at least talk about it, otherwise you won't get anywhere...

 

Good luck!

 You cannot make people like you by becoming pregnant from them!

If he decides to stay around for the sake of the child, and ONLY for the child, would that make you feel better? I think not... So please, be responsible here!
Motherhood is not a thing to play with - it's a responsible task and you should be fully commited to it. It's not a tool for tying people to you, only because you don't want to deal with letting them go. If they want, they will leave anyway... and an innocent child could get hurt in this. Nobody is worth THAT.

So please go to your doctor, let him check you out whether you are pregnant or maybe have something else in you (I don't mean to scare you, but what if it's a tumor? Please go check it out!) and then talk to someone about it to help an counsel you.

Friend or no friend, YOU are living your life, and this is ONLY about you! Well, you and your little one, if one is actually on the way... but even then you should care about the two of you, and not make the child father a priority. Be sensible about this.

Wanting to get pregnant.....sometimes :P

 

    My husband and I have 2 beautiful girls...one is 9 the other is 7.  Im ready to have another baby after a 7 year wait from our second.  We wanted to try to have a boy.....well I just had a miscarriage in January which really broke my heart.  I really want to try again but at the same time I dont want to be so consumed with trying so hard. I wanted to just let nature take its course.  But at the same time I'm so afraid I might have a miscarriage again. I dont think I could handle the disappointment again.

I'm just wondering.....

Was it correct in predicting the sex of your baby according to your age and month you got pregnant?

Thanks, just doing some research here....

I want to but my husband don't

My husband and I have been together for 8 years now. I have always wanted to have kids but my husband has been giving me the run around. Excuse after excuse, like we need to be more stable, we need to be making more money. We are achieving this now and I am ready. When I was younger I had trouble relating to my parents because they were older when they had me, his parents were young when they had him. I like to believe that having children at a younger age (30) you can enjoy them more and be able to particpate more in their activities in life. What am I going to do or say to convience him to have children? He is much older that me and I do not want to raise children and take care of my husband as well.
