No mama, nothing to worry about. I sneezed alot when I was pregnant and caught stomach cramps after and my lil bad boy went past his due date. Even though everybody's body is diff, just be careful and if the pain gets too bad run to the DR.

I just read all of your updates and oh my, dear - you have it rough! Please, keep the faith (in God) and pray and he WILL provide... that is one of his children in you and he will take care of it. God Bless!

I understand with the whole not knowing where to go thing. I left my fiance three weeks after I found out I was pregnant because I wasn't going to keep putting up with yelling and shoving matches. I had to move back in with my parents, which is nice, but they both smoke, have no desire to quit, and it has made it nearly impossible for me to quit. I'm petrified of when my baby comes that I won't be able to provide him with a good home financially. Daycare is so expensive, and right now, my only option is to let my mom watch him. Free, yes, but when my mom has to take anti-anxiety medication that makes her fall asleep, she's not exactly the best candidate for a baby sitter. Not to mention, I have a four year old daughter to boot. She'll be starting school, but that still doesn't really put me in a good position to be leaving my son with my mom. I would love to move out on my own, give my kids their own bedrooms and a life of their own. I think we would all love that. I've had several opportunities that if I had a job to support us, I could have moved out. But I'm due Aug. 25th, and around here, it's two days before school starts. While they're not supposed to discriminate, schools don't hire teachers who'll have to be out the first six weeks of the school year. So I've pretty much got to wait until the baby gets here before I can do anything. I know this was long, but I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone. And even though it may not seem like it now, we're much better off being alone than being with someone and us and our kids being miserable. I'll pray for ya!

Wow! Very interesting relationship. Well Kudos to you for holding your head. I'm sure something will work out as far as living conditions. I wish you the best. Good Luck

Well first of all i really didn't know that when you type in caps it means you're yelling. lol. I trully love typing in caps, in fact my handwriting is all in capital letters, but just for you i'm typing in lower case. lol...Well, it does seem like maybe i misunderstood you in the whole 'giving your baby up' but i feel you, you just want to put a little pressure on your mother to see what she says or does. I really hope everything works out for you.

hey, don't let people discourage you on the water birth thing. it is a totally personal choice and it is nobody elses business! with my first i spent most of my labor in the tub, but then i was told i had to get out...at that time the hospital didnt think they wanted women to deliver in the tub. with my 2nd the midwife told me i could refuse to get out then it has nothing to do with hospital policy and it was not in my hands...so thats exactly what i did. i loved having a water birth. about 20 mins after i got to the hospital i got in the tub and hung out in there for all of my labor. it was so nice, and i'll just say that by the time i got to the hospital i wasn't in early labor, i was 7 cm dialated, so this wasn't the 'nice and easy' part of labor when you can still hold a conversation... i was in pain and did not want to talk to anybody! as soon as i got in the water i could finally realx a little and was able to start breathing thru the pain and contractions. my whole body was a lot more relaxed and it was so nice to be able to lift my bottom off the tub and float a little, it really takes a lot of the pressure away. at one point i had to pee, so i got out of the tub and as soon as i got out i threw up because the pain became so much more intense. the water really does help with sooo much of the pain and pressure. my daughter was born with her head and her elbow/arm coming out at the same time...you can imagine how much bigger i would have to open to get all that out. if i hadn't been in the water i would have torn, but from being in the water all my skin was nice and stretchy. i have never torn, even with the first cuz i was still in the water with most of the labor with her too.so, i think there are many benefits to having a water birth and i know some women are concerned that as soon as the baby's head is out that they will breathe in water and drown, but beacuse the water temp is body temp, the baby doesnt know its out yet and doesnt gasp til s/he come to the surface. its not like the baby hangs out in the water for an extended period of time, you get them up to your chest right away! so, i am doing a water birth again this time cuz it felt so much better that being in a hospital bed. hope that helped a little bit, feel free to ask more any questions! take care!

I'LL APOLOGIZE BEFORE HAND FOR THE LONG MESSAGE........THERE ARE SO MANY WOMEN OUT THERE THAT HAVE MADE IT, YOU'RE NOT THE EXEPTION. IN MY COUNTRY, I HAVE SEEN MOTHERS (WHO ARE EXTREMELLY POOR) AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RAISE BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN. YOU CAN DO IT. PLEASE, WHATEVER HAPPENS, DON'T GIVE YOUR BABY UP. GOD IS BLESSING YOU WITH ONE OF THE BEST GIFTS IN THE WORLD, IF YOU GIVE HIM/HER UP, GOD MAY NEVER BLESS YOU AGAIN. THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT OUTLETS OUT THERE....PEOPLE MAY NOT LIKE IT OR FEEL EMBARRASED, BUT YOU CAN'T THINK ABOUT YOURSELF, YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT YOUR BABY. THERE'S MEDICAID, WELFARE, HOUSING, SECTION 8, FOOD STAMPS AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. EVERY STATE HAS SOME TYPE OF PROGRAM THAT WILL BE ABLE TO HELP, THERE'S NO SHAME IN IT. ALSO, ABOUT YOUR LIVING SITUATION, IF THE 'SISTERS' OPTIONS DON'T GIVE YOU A GOOD FEELING, GO WITH YOUR GUT. IF YOU GRAB A NEWSPAPER AND LOOK AT THE CLASSIFIEDS, THERE ARE ALOT OF GOOD FAMILIES THAT ARE RENTING A ROOM IN THEIR HOUSE B/C THEY'RE ALSO STRUGLING FINANCIALLY AND NEED EXTRA INCOME. YOU BOTH HELP EACHOTHER OUT. DON'T GIVE UP, THERE'S ALWAYS A WAY. GOD WILL NEVER GIVE YOU ANYTHING YOU CAN'T HANDLE. EVERYBODY TELLS ME THAT WHEN YOU HAVE A CHILD, A MILLION BLESSINGS COME YOUR WAY AND EVEN THOUGH IT MAY SEEM TOUGH GOD WILL ALWAYS BE THERE, YOU'RE CHILD WILL NOT LACK ANYTHING. I SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE...MY MOTHER WAS A SINGLE MOTHER WITH 3 GIRLS, SHE DIDN'T HAVE A JOB AND SHE SURVIVED OUT OF WHATEVER SHE WAS ABLE TO GET FROM THE GOVERNMENT. SHE NEVER GAVE UP AND NOW WE HAVE GROWN TO START OUR OWN JOURNEY. GOOD LUCK, I HOPE YOU MAKE THE BEST DECISION, BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING, PRAY AND ASK GOD TO ENLIGHTEN YOU WITH THE 'RIGHT DECISION'. GOD BLESS.

He obviously has a big problem. like Danie24 said dont stress yourself out so much.. trying to figure everything out is really stressful on the baby. You should talk to your mom again.. does she know that your BF is an alcoholic? maybe you should mention it to her.. And hopefully she starts supporting you on your decisions so when you know that your mom has your back you can start telling your BF that he better shape up or that your going to leave! is he afraid of that?

danie24 - Thursday, 21 Jun
dont worry- things will get better! i think you should talk to your mom & see if you can live at home for a while.. i am sure she will want to help you and her grandbaby out... and be involved in the baby's life so closely.. GOOD LUCK! i hope everything works out for you XOXOX

Monica23 - Thursday, 21 Jun
I just read your post.. So how much of an alcoholic is your BF? Was he a heavy drinker before you found out you were prego?

1stXmomCR - Thursday, 21 Jun
Thank you so much for the stretches!!! i will definitely give them a try. hopefully it will help - i'm just starting to get pains there and i want to try and nip it in the butt before it gets worse (not sure if that even works, but its worth a shot eh?) so again thank you so much! i hope that things are better for you! hurray for walking without limping!!! hopefully eveything thing else is going along smoothly for you and your baby.

oh one name (kinda with a jade-root) I had picked out for a girl or boy at the beginning of my pregnancy that those names reminded me of -- Jaeven.

aprilraine - Wednesday, 20 Jun
:) thanks, I got named aprilraine because I was born april22nd and it had rained for a week straight that week. It wouldn't hurt to talk to your man about the situation instead of just saying nothing, like tell him if he really wants a chance to be a father then he's gonna have to stop acting like a 19yr old kid or you'll be doing it yourself. or give him an ultimatum. I dunno, I'm a real 'my way or the highway' kinda person when it comes to stuff like that. lol. Cause it's going to be different when your baby gets here, you're gonna want the best for that little boy or girl, raised in the right environment. Are you and your mom really close? Does she like your boyfriend?

We were talking about going up in cup sizes in bras. Lol you've got pregnancy brain like me! Lol

mommato2 - Monday, 18 Jun
hey, i must have missed you last night...i wonder why i didn't get your message cuz i checked before i went to bed...oh well, i am here now and will be checking my messages all day, so if you wanted to chat just let me know! i love talking about my natural experiences. i only do it naturally cuz here where i live drugs are not an option. my midwife has hospital privellages, but isn't allowed to administer epidurals...if it turns out the woman in labor can't handle the pain or if there is a problem then we have to be airlifted out in the helicopter! the only things we can have are demerol or laughing gas....i chose to go without either... and i really liked both of my birth experiences!so, anyways, i am open to talking, and i will be truthful...no fluffy stuff!

mandiJ - Monday, 18 Jun
My pleasure. I wouldnt mind them except for the fact they are hurting, itching, feel like they're on fire and my back is so sore!! Lol.

mandiJ - Sunday, 17 Jun
Hi there! Just read your comments on the general page - i have gone up 3 cup sizes and that is almost outgrowing me! I started as an A cup and now i'm a D. I'm only 22wks too!

mommaTo2 - Sunday, 17 Jun
