Avatar f tn They say that sex is safe during pregnancy but in your third trimester, you may want to take it slow.
Avatar f tn t remember having energy in my 2nd pregnancy, or this one...but I DID have it briefly during my first pregnancy in the 3rd trimester...I started getting antsy at about 35 weeks and didn't sit still or stop walking and swimming until I delivered at 40wks, lol. It just depends on your body, but HOPEFULLY you'll get a break in the 2nd tri..I never have, but I have some friends who did :-).
Avatar n tn My question is what are the possible effects of general anesthesia in the second trimester of pregnancy. She had her wisdom teeth pulled but at this point did not know she was pregnant. She also remained on birth control for a few months after conception. Just curious so I know how to support her best. Thanks, S.
Avatar f tn This is my first pregnancy and I'm in the second trimester and have been experiencing very painful cramping since before I found out I was pregnant. The doctor had said it was growing pains but should be gone by the end of the first trimester. I'm still having these pains. What could it be?
Avatar f tn Oh awesome! Idky but I was sure I didn't start second till next week!
Avatar f tn I got my nausea back during my first pregnancy when I got into my third trimester. It's completely normal for that to happen. It doesn't necessarily mean anything, but keep an eye out for any other symptoms just in case.
Avatar f tn I just started my second trimester also. I still have morning sickness and tired as ever but so glad to be in the "safe" zone.
Avatar f tn t let a woman lift any weight during pregnancy. Like not even 5 lbs. I want to know how much weight you can lift up during second trimester, and how to lift it properly. Can you lift from top shelves and bend your back down to lift weights?
Avatar f tn These irregular uterine contractions are perfectly normal and may start to occur in your second trimester, although more commonly in your third trimester of pregnancy. They are your body's way of getting ready for the "real thing.
Avatar f tn I havnt enjoyed sex at all during my entire pregnancy.. id have to say there was one time when i was in the second trimester that I really really wanted it, but that one time only.. me and hubby have prolly only done it like 15 times this whole pregnancy ( i am almost 38 weeks) the other 14 times was just for hubby cause after awhile i felt bad lol.. but now that im full term my goal is to do it everyday or so.. to get that sperm on my cervix so hubby is def. happy now!!! lol...
Avatar f tn It's probably Braxton hicks! You'll get them more at the end of your pregnancy! Just your body practicing for labor (: doesn't mean anything specific. I had those practice contractions since like 13-14 weeks. They actually start at 6 weeks for most women but usually women don't feel them until late second to third trimester!
268356 tn?1236002604 Having said that, these early Braxton-Hicks contractions are generally so mild that you arent even going to be able to notice them. Typically, it is sometime much further into pregnancy, often somewhere in the middle of the second trimester, before you start to be able to feel and to recognize Braxton-Hicks contractions.
8102917 tn?1402457914 I actually had more energy in my first trimester then my second. Ihit my second and third and I could sleep all day if I let myself. My bodys just not use to all this weight and energy the baby taking from me.lol.
Avatar f tn I drank once in my first trimester, not knowingly...I wouldnt recommend it since the first and second trimester is when the baby is developing. Now the third trimester a glass you know maybe before bed to help you sleep wouldn't hurt the baby, as long as its a red wine...just do not over do it, and if something doesn't feel right then stop of coarse.
480331 tn?1310403529 I don't know how many of you ladies believe drinking herbal teas in pregnancy are beneficial or not, but I just wanted to share this website with you. I started drinking Raspberry Red Leaf Tea in the middle of my 3rd trimester. This tea claims by midwives and health professionals to help women labor more effectively and less painful, due to an alkaloid called fragrine, which lends tone to the uterus, by strengthening the uterine wall.
Avatar f tn First I was extremely sick, Second I felt awesome, but my third has been hard with weight gain, contractions, etc.
20922415 tn?1661860103 During the reproductive years, the pituitary gland in the brain generates hormones (follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH] and luteinizing hormone [LH]) that cause a new egg to mature and be released from its ovarian follicle each month. As the follicle develops, it produces the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone, which thicken the lining of the uterus called the endometrium.
Avatar f tn I took valaciclovir during my first trimester of pregnancy (around 10 weeks) for a cold sore. I took the medication for 3 consecutive days. I read online that the medication is considered a class B drug and has no increased risk for birth defects. I am a bit worried now and wanted a second opinion.
Avatar n tn Is it safe for my husband to suck my breast during my first trimester in pregnancy? Are there any side effects or dangers involved?
Avatar f tn I think the farther along in the pregnancy, the harder! My first trimester wad easy! No sickness full energy! My second trimester was good until I got to the 3rd trimester im currently 30+1 weeks and I'm so tired, pee all the time! Can barely get out of bed! Can't bend down and pick stuff up! I actually cried today when I was picking stuff up , because my bf wouldn't! Im done being pregnant!!!
Avatar f tn So, I'm 17 weeks and I've started getting Braxton Hicks contractions. My last pregnancy with my son I didn't have that until my late second trimester same as the kicks which is a lot of kicks sometimes it even feels like little movements. Have anyone been dealing with this????
Avatar f tn That would be frustrating i bet. On monday if i havent had my girl yet, i am going to schedule a day to be induced...ive heard so many stories about difficult labor when induced that i am a little nervous. My other 2 babies came naturally.

Avatar f tn I don't think I ever did. Did any of you? Do you have to spot in early pregnancy? Is my baby normal if I didn't.
Avatar f tn I stopped spotting at 15 weeks and i was very worried to at first i went to the er twice for the same and they would chrck but nothing then i was told it happens to some women during their first and part of second trimester and i guess its true bc now at 34 weeks my baby boy is perfectly fine and very healthy.
Avatar f tn The sharp pains could be his penis hitting against your cervix. Also, sex is okay during pregnancy unless your doctor tells you no. And it's pretty normal to feel bad about "not pleasing your man" but he will just have to understand how you are feeling because for many women it only gets worse during the third trimester and when you begin to show.
