Pregnancy Test Results.

I have taken 3 of the meijer "the clear result and digital pregnancy test's" and each time it comes up not pregnant. it is now september 30th an i have not recieved my period for this month. I want to know it this test somehow uses light or not to get a result because it has a test stick that you insert into the test reader. when i release the stick it shows the control line for the test and it also shows a faint line a little ways away, but when i hold it up to the light it is not there but if i look at it straight down it is there. that...

What Week of Pregnancy Am I In???

I am very confused about what week I am in in my pregnancy. I am not able to go to the doctor for another month due to lack of funds and insurance problems. This is my third pregnancy, and it was a BIG surprise. My last period was May 26, but it was short and only dark brown. I had been feeling dizzy, sick, tired and starting to get a belly for the last two months. I only took a pregnancy test because I was suppose to start that day and I felt sick, so I thought I would just see. And it came back positive. I didn't start thinking I was...

Pregnancy and Swine Flu

Hi Moms, I am freaking out and need some advice.....I am a teacher in a school who has AT LEAST 2 confirmed cases of Swine Flu. My issue is I am 7 months pregnant, can't find a vaccine anywhere to save my life, AND...I work in a modular unit with only 4 classrooms, and that is where the kids have it are. So, my work told me about the situation and then left it up to me. The doctor says to take a few days off, which I did. But, now the situation is not getting better...more kids in the modulars are out, and I have no way of knowing if...

Morning sickness?....more like ALL DAY SICKNESS!!

I am about 6.5 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy, and I am so nauseated. I never felt this way with my first pregnancy. It's "all day" nausea and it leaves me feeling like I can't get anything done. To make matters worse I am trying to take care of my 2 year old son and keep up with the house work, but all I find myself doing is laying down trying to keep from throwing up. This is a horrible feeling. Does this get better as the weeks go on, or do I have to feel this way the whole first trimester? Any suggestions on what to eat...

Wavy Hair After Pregnancy!

My hair was always stick straight. My friend refered to it as Vidal Sassoon hair: long, shiny, and straight. After our first baby, it started getting a tad on the flufy side. After baby #4 I cut about 16 inches off because there was no time to deal with it all. Now that it's short, I've discovered it's very wavy! I've never had to style wavy hair before & am at a loss. If I do nothing it gets big & frizzy. If I blow it out it, I have to flat iron it too. If I dry it with a diffuser, I have to put mousse/foam wax in & then it ends up...
