Believe it or not, we found out when I was just two weeks pregnant. I had a transvaginal ultrasound, and you couldn't even see the baby yet. It was still a ball full of cells. Symptoms I had were major, major cramps. So much so that I thought if I ran to the restroom, I'd have quite the bloody mess down there. After about five days of cramping, my hubby convinced me to take a test. Got a faint positive, and finally decided to pay the clinic a visit.

Thanks ladies for all the advice! This is so helpful! I need to check out the links that annie24 provided. Thanks a bunch! I am 5 months this Friday, but we found out the sex of the baby at 18 weeks. It is a boy! Due date is July 20th. Iceman and I met here a couple of years ago. We wed last year, and now have a baby along the way. We both feel we owe the site alot, and it's great that this pregnancy forum has been added over the years. I definitely think it's a lifesaver for any mom, especially new ones. ; ) So when's a good time to register?

Hi everyone! Just wondered if you had some advice for me. I've already spent about $130 on our baby, buying onesies (6 so far for newborns) one 4 pk of receiving blankets, plugs for outlets, stain remover, a few 3-6 month outfits, burping cloths (2 packs), socks, baby boy blanket, nursing bra for me, and I can't remember what else. What are the essentials, and how do you know how much to buy (ballpark of course)? Thanks for your advice!

Congrats to all mommies and soon-to-be mommies! I'm a first time mommy, due July 20th with a baby boy!!! ; )

I was lucky enough to only have nausea, but boy did I have lots of fatigue. Still do and I'm well into my second trimester. Pregnancy is just filled with various different things, most of which I have yet to encounter, I"m sure. As a heads up, one of them is cramps. Can be scary, but everyone says "if you're not bleeding, you're ok." I guess it's true. My ob says it's ligaments stretching.

I found out I was pregnant when I was just two weeks along. I was cramping really bad, and could've sworn my period was ready to start! Soon after I discovered I was pregnant, the breast soreness began, along with fatigue/tiredness, and some bloating. I never experienced implemantation bleeding, but I guess it's different for everyone. Be prepared to feel this way the entire first trimester. I'm into my second trimester, and have yet to feel less fatigued, but I no longer have the soreness in my breast though, and no more bloating (just a growing belly)! Congrats!

I disagree. I don't think it's truly possible. You always run into the possibility of rehashing old feelings. You don't want that! They are an ex for a reason. I see it happen when children are involved, and I think it's a great and good thing for the kids. Other than that, if you were never married, and kids weren't involved, why not stick to new friendships? Focus your energy on developing a new relationship with someone much more special! My two cents!

I'm 10 weeks pregnant, and can't wait to see our baby! I'm due July 20th. Happy to join the club!!!

Hi everyone- My fiance' and I are getting married in less than four weeks. My fiance' and I were having a conversation about my matron of honor. She's my best friend, and is married. I told him about the fact that she use to be unhappy in her marriage. She's been married once before, and this being the second time around, was difficult on her in the beginning. I made a comment to my fiance' last night about a comment she once made to me before things got better between she and her now husband. That comment she made was that she was jealous of her friends who were in happy marriages with Christian husbands. After I told my fiance' that, he said, "Well, you need to watch out for that." I said "What out? Why would I need to watch out?" Then he said "Because she's wishing she had her friend's Christian husbands." I then told him, since he's diest and not Christian, "But you're not Christian!" By then I was pissed and I asked why he would make a comment like that. I felt that he was trying to tell me that either a) something fishy, although perhaps small, had gone on between them, or, b) something about the situation made him think that she would hit on him. Now here's my question. Am I over-reacting? If so, please explain why. I've tried asking him what he meant by it and he turned it around to say that I should just be watching out for my friend. That's not what he said though, which is why I don't believe him. I just don't understand why "I" would need to watch out. Further background: my friend is very conservative, so I would find it hard that she would be the one to flirt. My fiance' isn't the flirty type, but he is good with women. His history will tell you that! : / Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks so much everyone! It's been wonderful! We are truly grateful that this site made it possible for us to meet, develop a great friendship, and a great love! We'll post wedding pics later in the year!

I met my Valentine's here on Enotalone. Thus, I thought it would be special to wish him a Happy Valentine's Day on here as well! I love you sweetie and can't wait to be your wife later this year! Happy Valentine's Day and can't wait to see you again! Love, your fiance'

Well, don't jump to conclusions, but I also don't think you need to call him again. If he's interested, he'll call once he has more room in his schedule. Personally, if a guy is too busy to speak to me or to hang out with me, then he's not a guy I'd want around anyway. Everyone has a busy life, but you always make time for those that are important to you. If he's that interested in meeting people, he'll make time in his schedule to do so. Whether or not he's "that" interested in you, is up in the air. Good luck, but don't sweat it too much!

Duffy, if your relationship didn't have problems, you wouldn't be posting here. Thus, the first thing you need to realize is that what she is doing is making you feel insecure, and distrusting of her actions. Then you have to ask yourself what she is doing to make you feel this way. Let's look at the past: a) she was suppose to meet up with a guy to have sex with him, but he didn't show up b) you caught her, but she continued to chat with guys online by having very "sexy" conversations c) you are currently suspicious of her again and she "appears" to be talking to guys online again The problem here is that what's apparent to us, isn't apparent to you. What "is" apparent to us is the lack of love and respect that this woman has for you, regardless of what she verbally feeds you with. Her actions don't speak of a wife that loves and respects her husband. Personally, you've taken a lot more than most of us in your shoes would've put up with. If you want helpful advice, and not the kind that you necessarily want to hear, than do what you have to do get the proof you need to show that she "is" cheating on you, or "would" cheat on you if she had the opportunity. Whether or not you want someone like that in your life is up to you. Some people are weak and would rather have bad company beside them, rather than having no company. The choice is yours. Good luck!

Trendy, it's not a put down and we aren't here to lecture you or judge you. Teen pregnancies are so common these days and it really is something to not be taken lightly. Anyway, you asked about the bleeding. If you're that concerned, then call your gyno, tell the nurse your situation, and ask for their medical advice. If need be, make an appointment to make sure all is okay.

Wow! Congrats! That's awesome! I can't wait for my fiance' and I to marry and wake up/to to sleep together every day of our lives. The longest time we've spent together is 8 beautiful days. God, you're so lucky! Best wishes to you and your honey!
