Avatar n tn I've had no issues at all with my son or my pregnancy. I've not even mentioned it to my doctor but my midwife knows I'm still breastfeeding and was really supportive. You could try the kellymom website or the la leche league website for more information about breastfeeding whilst pregnant.
10504858 tn?1423544346 Hey ladies, for those of you who have given birth before, I'm wondering what early contractions can feel like. I'm currently 36+2 and for the past few days I've been getting this cramping feeling kind of like a menstrual cramp or gas pains. The cramps come and go but they aren't very close together. At first it would be like once or twice a day, but the past two days it seems they are gradually happening more often, like maybe once every hour or two.
Avatar f tn t dilating so and not dehydrating so sent her home from ER and told her that some women have contractions thru much of their pregnancy. Has anyone ever heard of that...contractions thru much of pregnancy. Also has me concerned because baby is getting large and the mother has gestational diabetes. Please let me know.
Avatar f tn You should call your doctor and be checked! My MFM doctor told me cramping during the third trimester is normal but if you experience 5 contractions in an hour you have to go to the hospital! For the mucus plug I am 2cm dilated and never see it! discharge during pregnancy is normal but if it's green or yellow and very thick call your doctor!
Avatar f tn It could Braxton hicks contractions but you should talk to your Dr. I started having contractions really bad if I am active at about 22weeks with this pregnancy and went to the hospital and found out I have a irritable uterus and have to be very careful with what I am doing. I am on restricted activities. It's best to be safe call or go in.
Avatar f tn Good luck, its a little early but hopefully baby don't need a NICU stay. (: Fingers crossed for a fast delivery and recovery!
Avatar f tn That's how my early contractions felt but then ofcourse they started getting stronger & stronger but the same day.
Avatar f tn s safe to have an orgasm in early pregnancy?
Avatar f tn Contractions can begin as early as 6 weeks. Cramping is a normal symptom of pregnancy!
Avatar f tn My last pregnancy I had the same worry as you, thought I was having contractions but then realised it was trapped gas which is very common during pregnancy.
200198 tn?1259887597 unless your doctor tell you not to it is safe to have sex at any point during the pregnancy (well until your water breaks and I don't know many mom's who would want to have sex after their water breaks) as far as contracting after having an orgasm I don't know exactly at what stage it is considered normal to contract, but I started having contractions with sex when I was 2 to 3 months with all 3 of my pregnancies, it is usually only a problem if your doctor think you may go into prem
Avatar f tn I had insomina early in my pregnancy and a lot of anxiety, but it wasn't until about 9 weeks along. It went away after several weeks so I guess it was hormonal. I don't know anything about Mirena, but is that something that has any hormones or chemical associated with it? If so, it's possible that removing that from your system could have caused a hormonal change in your body that might cause some of those symptoms. The gassy stuff.. heck yes!

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 Okay I know this may sound gross but I'm 39 weeks and I get diarrhea very very often...plus very bad cramps due to gas and just wandering if this is early signs of labor? I've heard yes and no.
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 But every pregnancy i have will be a high risk pregnancy.
