I know this is a gross answer but i’ll proceed to ask it!
One of the symptoms is constipation? but obviously that doesnt happen with everyone? And is a bowel movement normal during early (one month) of pregnancy or not?




My blood pressure is slightly elevated. I’m concerned that if I got pregnant that it would affect the baby negatively. If there are any health professionals out there who can give me sound advice on this please respond to how high blood pressure would affect a pregnancy and should I be concerned and what are the problems that could/would occur. I hav no knowledge so any information would be helpful Thanks.

How can I treat constipation during pregnancy?




I’ve been having really bad constipation since the beginning of the pregnancy (now 12 wks). I’m eating high fiber food, drinking a lot of water, and taking Metamucil twice a day per doctor’s instruction. It’s better, but still painful. What else can I do?




Me and my husband was thinking about have another baby in 2 years, but I have high blood pressure during my first pregnancy. In my thought, I don’t want to hurt my husband’s feeling about not have another baby.

Who has had serious trouble with migraines during pregnancy and what did your doctor suggest for "home remedies" or RX medications? I have them about twice a week and seriously need help!
I am 16 weeks with my third child.
I am not stupid enough to take anything that is not approved by my doctor. I am simply curious about how others have dealt with the problem and the solutions their doctors have given them. If there was something I was curious about that someone suggested I would consult my doctor before use. DUH! I don’t want to hurt my child.




I need to get health insurance for me and my 1 year old daughter. I am planning on becoming, or possibly already am pregnant but need insurance for us. Any help? This is in CT, so it is a state that does not require individual policies to cover pregnancy.




I heard leg cramps are bad during pregnancy how many of you women out there like or need a massage therapist during this time? Prefer answer’s from people experiencing this.

How to get rid of cellulite?




I had a baby 4 months ago. I gained 30 lbs during pregnancy and now I have 7 lbs left to loose. I discovered lately that I have cellulite on my butt and thighs. What are easy and inexpensive ways to get rid of cellulite?




My daughter was pregnant when her boyfriend of 10 yrs died in a river rafting accident in June 3 yrs ago. Neither one of them knew of the pregnancy at the time. She gave birth to a beautiful baby boy only one day after her deceased boyfriend’s birthday in September. A DNA test was done of the paternal grandparents, but was inconclusive. (paternal grandfather may not be the biological parent of the deceased). Should another DNA test be done on grandmother and other siblings?




I’ve been put on bedrest because I have high blood pressure. I’m 34 weeks PG and I’m a little concerned as to what can be brought on by this.

Could I get toxemia or pre-eclampsia this late in pregnancy from high blood pressure?

Could I go into premature labor and what else could happen?

Thanks.




I read that when you have heartburn during pregnancy it means you are more likely to have a hairy baby. With my first I did not have heart burn and he barely had any hair, with this one I have horrible heartburn and he is hairy :) Does this work for you? What do you think?
