Am I Pregnant?

I'm 25 years of age and have been married for nearly 2 years. My husband and I have been trying to conceive now for the past 4 months with no luck.

For the past 2-3 days I have been getting really bad tummy cramps and today is when my period was due, although it has been late for a few months.

Last week I found I have CIN 3 and it was suggested that I stop trying to conceive. I need to have LETZ surgery next week and now I am worried that I might be pregnant which means I cant have my operation. I really want to be pregnant, but I also don’t want my CIN 3 developing any further.

I have taken a few pregnancy tests over the past few days and they have come up negative. I suppose I just need to sit back and wait to see what happens.

My fingers and toes are crossed...I really want to be a MUM!!

I couldn't believe my eyes...after a whole year!

My fiancé and I had been trying to conceive for over a year. When we started I was so excited and just knew I would be pregnant ASAP. But I was very, very wrong. After 2 months I began to cry every month I wasn't pregnant for about 9 months... What was funny was I thought I was pregnant all those months...I believe it was just me WANTING to be sooo bad...To make a long story short...I was not thinking of making a baby much anymore. I studied hard on my career path.

Now...I always keep track of my AF. But come this August 2007 I couldn’t remember when my period was and so I couldn’t think if I was late or not. Lol. My fiancé reassured me that it was at the beginning of the month. Well I’m writing this 17th of September 2007...My AF isn't here.

I went to Planned Parenthood today and got a (FREE ;)) pregnancy test and as soon as I took it, 2 lines showed up immediately!!! I didn’t even wait 5 seconds!! I couldn’t believe it. I could not. I didn’t even have any symptoms. But there were definitely two very clear blue lines. I’m thinking "wow after a yr we did it!"

So...anyways...There’s a hopeful story for those TTC

~Good luck~

Why does it have to be so hard?

I found out I was pregnant one month after starting a very demanding high level job. My husband and I did want to have another child; I just hadn't planned on it just then. I am now in the 1st day of my eleventh week and still feeling like hell. I really deplore people who say, it'll pass, or I wasn’t sick at all. Shut-up already! When you feel so awful you don't want to hear anything from anyone. The other day my husband said to me, "its a time honored process, you'll be fine", I responded by saying, "I'm glad you feel that way because the abuse that you are getting from me is a part of the time honored process as well so you better suck it up".... so far he does suck it up and I really am a nasty person right now.

My advice to those of you who are experiencing pregnancy sickness and have a partner who is around is just lash out all your misery on him. He should experience some of the bad stuff too that way he knows that it is not easy, and not something that women must endure.

For those of you, who do not have a present partner and decide to keep your baby, do not focus on the sleaze bag (unless he is at war); focus on taking care of yourself so that you can take care of your child. If you think you love him, forget it, it’s never worth loving someone who doesn't love you back. Make no excuses to yourself or anyone else, except reality and realize you and your child will be better off not having someone who is low enough to walk away from you at this point. Sometimes God takes people away from us for a good reason.... remember that!

It is not easy being female and many days I ask why I was not born male, but we just need to realize that we are strong women and must be loved, respected, appreciated and cared for. If you do not get these things from people in your life, cut them off like a dangling thread. Remember your child will be a product of his/her environment so be very careful who you have in your life...deep down you know when a person is up to no good so protect yourself and your child. One last thing...people will treat you good if you feel good about yourself and demand nothing else, and the moment they sense a weak fragile, insecure person, they will pounce and treat you like a doormat.

Even if you are young, unwed, and poor.... don’t let anyone make you feel that you are wrong and worthless.... you are not. You can change your life and shape it to what you want for yourself and child.

*Young and sick*

I am 10 weeks into my first pregnancy. I am sick as crap all the time. I have already gone to the hospital once for vomiting and dehydration. The doctor told me I had hyperemic which only 1 % of pregnant women get, lucky me!! It is not fun! I hope very much it goes away in the next few weeks, other than that and sore breasts I feel normal. I am only 19 years of age but have been on my own for 3 years. So all you ladies who are going to have to be on your own, don’t worry! It's not easy but it’s not impossible.

What am i to do???

Well where do I begin I was seeing this lad who is 21yrs old. I used to be seeing him over a year ago but we broke up due to misunderstandings and so we got back together this year in may 9th 2007. I was over the moon and everything June 28th came and I missed a period I was like OMG WHAT AM I DO TO!!

I went for a scan I was 5 weeks pregnant I told him and he seemed happy. My family trying to kick me out and I'm now 11 weeks pregnant and nowhere to go. My partner has broken up with me and wants nothing to do with the child or me and I don’t understand what it is I have done wrong.

So I sit and suffer hearing my parents nagging me 24:7 I mean I’m 19 YEARS OLD I feel as though it’s my bloody choice not theirs. Fair enough I live under their roof in their house but that does not give them the right to try to rule my life and my future.
