  • HCG level at 32 and cramps? Normal?

    My HCG level is at 32 at what is at most 14DPO and could be earlier. I'm not entirely certain exactly what day I ovulated just a basic few day window because I took clomid. The doctor told me it was a grey area. I had a positive home test and blood test yesterday and today I got a negative urine test at the doctors and a beta HCG count of 32 or whatever it is. One doctor told me that I'm probably going to miscarry and one told me I'm just too early for it to be any higher and that I shouldn't worry. I go back in two days for another test. Should I worry? I came into the ER because I had severe cramps on my right/low side which subsided after a few minutes but I wanted to check.

    What does anyone think? Should I worry? Is this normal? This was a military hospital and they aren't known for being accurate.

  • I'm an army wife, 19, am I crazy to want a child now?

    My husband and I have only been married a little over a month but we've been essentially together for about 3 years. We are moving onto post this month. I really want a child now for a few reasons.

    Right now, my husband is in a unit that won't deploy in a fenced in post that he can't leave for a year and a half. I don't know when else in the Army that could possibly ever happen. I don't want to have my first child without my husband here and anywhere else he would deploy. We are supposed to go to Germany using his reenlistment in a year and a half. Once there we intend to stay there as long as they'll let us and if the last time he was there was anything to go by...we can stay for quite a while. Trouble is I don't want to have my first child out of the country but we won't have reenlistment to get us there any other time and he'll deploy from there. I'm 19 and he's 22. I'm a stay at home wife. With military benefits we'll have medical covered for the child. Housing essentially handed to us. And we have family who has just finished up with both male and female clothes that they would be happy to send to us and same for a lot of the equipment necessary. It was always my goal to have a child by my early 20s but those years seem to be not out of the question, but hard to use for actual baby having as I want my husband there for the birth of our first born. I feel like we have most things figured out but yet I don't seem to be getting a lot of support from my family and friends on this. My husband seems in a toss up. He said we're fine if it happens and he knows we can take care of a child but I haven't fully discussed having one RIGHT NOW but I feel like I have good reasons but I don't know. Am I crazy? Are all the zillions of Army mothers wearing off on me? I just feel unproductive while he's working and I want to be a mother so badly and I just don't see another time that we'/ll know for a fact he's not deploying. Am I crazy?

  • why is everyone so against domestic discipline relationships?

    in a domestic discipline relationship the male is head of the house and he has the authority to make rules a give out punishments when they are disobeyed. usually this punishment is spanking. now i understand why some people find this odd, but does anyone realize that it's usually asked for by the woman? rarely is it instigated by the husband. i'm in a domestic discipline relationship with my long term boyfriend who i plan to be with for the rest of my life. i asked him for this and he wholeheartedly agreed this would work for us. we are beyond happy in this type of relationship. he isn't unfair. and he is never overly harsh. once when he saw he left a couple marks he stopped immediately. he hadn't even been really hurting me it was just the implement he was using but he said he wanted me to learn and knew it was supposed to hurt but that he never wants to truly harm me and marks aren't okay. does that not show people that this isn't an abusive type of relationship? most people are truly happy in them as we are. it stops arguments in their tracks because i know he gets the final say. it doesn't mean he doesn't listen to me or respect my opinion because he very much so does. why do people judge this so harshly before knowing it or trying it themselves?? why is everyone so against this lifestyle and why is it assumed that this is wrong or abusive?

  • cops abusing power? lying about speed? *several questions in one*?

    Now pardon my tone with this as I'm just a little sick of this but how is it that cops get away with lying and we get screwed? I've had a few tickets that I will freely admit I did, but I had one recently that I know I did not. I drive a 16 year old saturn that shakes when it hits 80 and the cop told me I went 97 in a 70. I had been going no faster than 75. I saw him, hit my brakes out of instinct but had only been going 75 and dropped to 65. he didnt follow for a long time, a good several miles. i maintained 75 and kept going. several miles down i look back and see that the blue dot (that's how far back the cars were at this point) turned to a gold one so i watched it. then i watched it get closer. and closer. til he had sped up massively to get behind me. he tailed me literally inches behind my bumper for a good couple miles before pulling me over saying i did 97. i never changed speed. he then spent time circling my car and peering in the windows and yelling at me that my windows were too tinted. which they aren't. and when he tested and figured that out he was livid. he was very rude to me and when he asked where i was going to and i said a photoshoot..which i was..im a freelance model..he started laughing hysterically. he refused to let me get a word in and took a half hour to give me my ticket. this is now costing me hundreds upon hundreds of dollars and i didn't even do it. the city apparently knows this guy does this but they don't care because its a smaller town and they get their money off tickets.

    now today. i'm not even in the same state i lived in at that time. my boyfriend got pulled over on his way to work. he's a soldier and was on what we were almost positive was MP territory but the cop disagreed. the cop was wayyyy in front of him and was driving, not on the side of the road. my boyfriend passed a slower truck and saw the cop and started braking before even completing the pass. he said he hit 80 but no higher in a 65. the cop slowed down and turned on his lights and my boyfriend went in front of him and pulled over. cop said he saw that he was passing and that he understood that but didn't believe he slowed back down "fast enough." even though he had been braking early. cop gave him a ticket for 93 in a 65. my boyfriend drives a 2010 mustang GT...he watches his speed like crazy knowing that he's a target in that car...i know he was watching his speed during that time and he says he never went above 80. a 15 over we'd deal with. but 28 over is not right.

    now my questions are: can they get your speed while driving quite a ways in front of you? and why do they get away with lying about speed like that? and being assholes when you ask anything? or even when you dont? all i did was apologize but nicely say that my car given its age doesn't actually reach that speed even if i tried. why are we now having to pay hundreds of dollars and losing these battles when we didn't do the crimes we were told we did? and how does the radar formula work? isn't it "total speed minus their speed equals your speed"? we need help here. how do we fix this mess we DIDN'T get ourselves in.

  • what are the chances i could be pregnant? help?

    my boyfriend was home on leave from the army starting may 1st to may 16th. during that time we had kind of a lot of unprotected sex. i had just ended my period about 2 days after he got home. yeah i know..oops. he pulled out almost every time but i know that doesnt always work and one time he didnt get out in time. i started worrying soon after and at about 3 weeks thought i was experiencing preg symptoms..but with so much worrying i assumed i was causing them. when i was a week late i took a test however and it was negative. that would have been just a couple days before the 4 weeks mark. a couple days later my period started. i think. and that would be a full week late. sorry for the gory details but im usually quite regular and heavy and get very long periods..upwards of 8/9 days or more. this lasted for maybe 3 and was very very light and seemed a bit..off colored. but still i assumed it was a period. now 2 weeks later ive been feeling nauseous and crampy and back pains and headaches and sore breasts..i would now be at about 5 and a half weeks..maybe 6. is it still possible that im pregnant? or am i once again worrying too much? i'm just 18 and going to school and hes in Afghanistan...just not a good time to prego..

  • Worth taking a pregnancy test?

    I'm on the pill but hadn't been very good about taking them the past few months not to mention I was on antibiotic which are known to make bc uneffective. My bf and I used other protection...but it slipped...so in all reality, we might have been rather unprotected. I've had quite a few symptoms, what looked to be implantation bleeding ( the right color for it and time and such), I've been very nausious in the mornings and occasionally the afternoons, tired to an extreme, pretty much go down the list and the symptoms fit but heres the kicker...like I said I'm on the pill, but my period was a little late..and only lasted for a day..and was very very light. I was relieved at first as this was several weeks ago now...but now that I think about it...because I'm still having these symptoms, could it have just been spotting? Or am i being entirely paranoid and shouldn't bother with a test?

  • Risk it all for a guy? Risky trip?

    So this guy named david and i started talking a few months ago. he was stationed in germany and we only got to know eachother via facebook and phone calls. I did know him slightly before he left however. We started to like eachother and he offered to fly me to Georgia for this weekend while he's there for jumps training. After this he leaves for Afganastan for a year. He wants me to wait for him. Heres the tricky parts. Me and my ex who i still love very much just starting talking again and now im questioning everything. i told him of the trip last night and he flipped out and told me to please please not go, but yet he cant promise me anything to do with us getting back together (there were some family issues involved that worry him). To top it off im sneaking, my parents believe im spending the weekend at mizzou. So i'm risking a lot for this guy..and going means giving up my ex for good....and idk if i can wait a year...but i have to tell him to cancel the ticket today if im not going...and idk what to do. I want to see him. I dont want to miss something that could be great, but on the other hand idk if im willing to give up my ex forever for a guy i barely know. HELP!

  • nude pics? can he be charged for this??? help?

    My ex will barely talk to me if at all and wont go back out with me purely out of fear of getting in trouble for something we did a while back. He had asked me to send nude pictures of myself to him and I did. Stupid? maybe, but i trusted him. and it was a long distance relationship...he just wanted to see me, i thought it was harmless, we didnt think of the legality of it. Unfortunately I wasnt thinking of my end, my parents searched MY computer and found the pics and the emails. The problem is that while I'm 17 now and in Missouri considered a legal adult outside of signing papers, I was 16 then...and he was 18. All of the evidence is gone. The police were informed but did nothing because my parents said they werent pressing charges..but according to my ex my parents told him if he talked to me or tried to get back with me my parents would press the charges. he said once i find out for sure that nothing can happen to him that we could work things out, so now i need to know...can anything really happen to him? hes 18, im 17...was 16 at the time..he was 18 at the time...help??

  • manipulating period??? birth control?

    okay my bf who i havent seen in over a month is coming to see me. obviously we are planning on having a little fun that weekend, the problem is that on my birth control im supposed to have my period on that weekend and thats the only weekend he can come. ive heard you can manipulate your period to come at a different time or not at all with birth control. like by skipping the "brown pills" aka the ones without hormones and skipping straight to the next pack for a shorter period? is this true? does it work? will i still be protected from pregnancy by doing that? we'll be using other protection as well so thats not a huge concern i just dont want to be on my period the one weekend i actually get to see him because i wont see him again for probably another month or so...

  • Pregnant teen??? maybe?

    I'm 16 and I had sex with my 18 year old boyfriend just over 2 weeks ago. Now he's a worrier, and so he worries about me being pregnant now even though we used a condom. The thing is, he's gotten inside my head and now I'm worried. I dealt with an eating disorder for nearly 5 years and so my periods are very messed up. They were at one point almost normal but my last one came just before we had sex, two weeks early and the one before that was at a weird time too and now this one is just over a week late. I also keep getting cramps like my period is coming but it never comes and i keep getting nauseous. How long before I can take a pregnancy test? How soon can I tell? Do you think it's all in my head from my boyfriend's worries?

  • Reasons to stay with your bf?

We talk about the future and plan on getting married, but the past couple days he keeps asking me what my reasons are that I think he should stay with me. I keep just saying because I love him, but he said that love is fragile and that that's not exactly what he's talking about. He gave an example this morning and said I could say that I would give him children and things like that. Help! I don't know what other answers I can give him! I love him and I would do anything to make him happy but I don't know how to answer him!

  • older guy? im 16??

    I'm a 16 year old girl and I always end up liking guys older than me...not by like a year. The guy I like now is 19 and in college. A lot of people say that that age gap within those crucial years is too much and that a 16 year old girl has more high school, teenage girl stuff to do while the 19 year old guy has his college, more mature stuff to do. But my situation is a little different. I'm in college myself. No, not the same college as him, unfortunately, but I really like him. He is waaayyy more experienced than me, though that isn't hard to do because I have pretty much no experience. But the question is, would you say thats a bad idea. I'm almost positive he likes me, but I don't want to keep leading him on if I really shouldn't be in that relationship. Help?

  • arrgghh..help!?

    i have an eating disorder and after 4 years, i finally asked for help. my doctor told my parents to take me to an eating disorder clinic and they are..thursday..but my parents dont really believe anything is wrong other than me simply being stupid for not eating. they dont understand what its like! im not just doing this to spite them or because im stressed, or anything like that! so they are completely unsupportive. my dad told me that by going thursday there will be some big changes. my comp. will probably be gone, i may not be able to go away to school this fall, i may lose a lot of other priviledges and all sorts of other crap like that which scared me. from the research ive done, i know that the first therapist doesnt always work out. my parents dont care, they dont even believe me so they dont think its important to find the right therapist. i dont know what to do. im 16, i really just want to move out. im kinda fine with having an eating disorder, kinda...idk help!

  • spanking??

    okay for starters, do not call me wierd. im well aware of that already. but here's the issue: im 16 and ive never been spanked in my life, but somehow i feel like i need to be. i always assumed it was a fetish, thats more common, but the more i think about it and research it i really dont think it is. spankingneeds.com had some good information about it and it said that some people just know they need it, not that they really want it, per say, and that you'll never get it unless you ask for it. the problem is, i feel wierd about it and im not really sure who i would ask. i also know that i have never actually responded to any of the more traditional punishments my parents have given me. i will not ask my parents. i do have a really good guy friend that ive known since i was 3, but i dont know how on earth i would bring that up! i have a lot of problems and i have been acting up a lot and i think a spanking would help set me straight, but grr its wierd, but i know i need it! ugh help...

  • Can you tell what this poem is about??

    It's called A Tiny Voice...see if you can tell what it's about and let me know if you like it or not

    A Tiny Voice

    A tiny voice that never leaves

    A tiny voice that torments me

    But it's the one that's always by my side

    The only one who was there everytime I lied

    Staring into the mirror, no smile, just a tear

    That's when I know that voice is near

    This picture I see is a distorted reflection

    But I fail to fight the tiny voices' rejections

    I used to live with love and hope

    But now my only goal is to try and cope

    The voice grows stronger and I can't find my own

    My pride, my joy, my self esteem now blown

    It told me it was friend, that I should trust it instead

    With tears down my face ,there's only confusion in my head

    I cry out "Lord, please help me!"

    A light of hope and I finally see

    It's a dreadful journey back, but I know that this is right

    It's a long and bumpy road, but the tiny voice I must fight.

  • anorexia??

    im 16 and ive always been very obsessive about my weight. when i was 12 i started restricting my food intake a lot and it still continues today. ive only completely stopped eating for only up to a week at a time throughout this period but i dont eat very much at all. if i eat in the morning i eat a small granola bar..sometimes just bites of it, if i bother to eat lunch its generally just a couple of bites of w/e, and then i tell my parents im not hungry and eat only a couple of bites of my dinner. my question is is this anorexia? also, because of this i really am never hungry. i feel constantly full and huge even tho im a size zero..one bite of something and i feel really sick. i told my mom im never hungry and she told my doctor and then my mom was like, great, now shes gonna think you have an eating disorder. i dont know if i do or not and i dont know what to tell the doctor. i cant eat anymore than i do, or ill gain weight. somebody help!
