Pregnant! *~♥&♥~* Due 01/18

Hi Ladies. So as some of you may know I've popped back into the ttc section lately after taking a little break, and am extremely confused about my cycle this month. I am now 9 days late, which has never happened to me before. I have extremely sore boobs, and have been very bloated. But as of 6 days late I was also getting a BFN. I do have a dr's appt for thursday to get a blood test though, so I was just going to wait it out and see what he said.

However now I'm even more confused. Last night I started getting bad cramps, basically like I would normally in the middle of my period, it even made my legs cramp. And shortly after when i went potty there was some pinkish/brownish blood. Not a whole lot, but definitely noticeable. I had a very hard time sleeping the cramps were so bad. Now this morning the cramps have come back and so has the spotting (only when i go to the bathroom, but a decent amount for spotting).

This never occurs when I have a period. And my only other thought is a miscarriage? But I'm not even sure I'm pregnant. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this before?

Thanks in advance. And baby dust to everyone ttc!!!

Hi girlies. So I think I'm more frustrated at this point than anything! AF is 7 days late now, and as of yesterday I am still getting a BFN. Has this ever happened to any of you? I have been 3 days late before, and thought maybe I had a few symptoms, but AF has always shown her ugly face by day 4. I have a dr's appt for a blood test on thursday, but that seems so far away!

My boobs are extremely sore, and have been since the day after AF was supposed to show. Particularly my nipples. My belly is rather bloated, just about all of the time, but more so right after I eat, which seems to be alot! I've also had a significant amount of aches and pains in my stomach, near my belly button. I find myself eating constantly, but in very small portions because I get full very fast. I've also had to pee quite a lot more than normal, including getting up in the middle of the night, which I never do either. The other huge thing, which never happens to me, is I had spotting about a week period I missed AF. 4 days of very very light pink spotting, only noticeable on the toilet paper when i wiped (sorry if tmi!). My fiance is convinced I am, but with all the negatives, I'm not.

For those of you who don't know, my fiance & I have been trying to conceive for almost a year now.. and I'm really hoping this is finally what we've been waiting for!

But anyhow, I guess my question is, have any of you been over a week late and gotten negatives on pee tests, just to find out you were actually pregnant later? And if so how long did it take?

Thanks girls, and lots of baby dust to all of you ttc!!

Hi Girlies! Although I'm TTC it's been a little while since I popped my head in here, as I've not been trying to think about it too much! However I have a question I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with. I asked this question saturday with no answers, so hoping more people are on today :)

For the past three days (5 now, since this was asked saturday) I've been having spotting. It started on thursday, I noticed when I wiped there was a slight tinge of pinkish on the TP, however it only happened once all day. On friday I noticed it again twice. The first time was a decent amount, the second time only a little, and again just a very light light pink color. Today (which was saturday, sorry to confuse anyone!) I also have noticed it once so far, again the same light pink and only when I wipe. I have never before had anything like this! The only thing however that makes me a little tentative about it, is that I'm still a week out from my period (a week and a half out when I first noticed it), which seems a little early to be because I'm pregnant do you think? My last period started on 5/10, so I'm due to start again on 6/7 (i'm usually very regular!). I was not charting, because I seem to get to stressed when I do, so I'm not sure of exact ovulation time. My fiance and I have been having sex about every other day though, so it's likely that if i did ovulate early I hit it.

The only other symptoms I've been having are: very slight cramping (only on the first day I noticed the spotting), but since then I've had just a general feeling of discomfort in my abdomen, and occasional pinching pains. Also I've been extremely tired lately (overslept my alarm thurs and fri, which is highly unusual for me to do ever!).

Anyway I guess I need a specific question, so:

has anyone experienced spotting like this in their first month, especially maybe a week before they were due? It seems most people say they notice it for a day ot two, has anyone had spotting for 5+ days?

Sorry this is so long, and thanks in advance to anyone who answers!

Lots of baby dust to you all!

I've always really liked the name Lindsay for a girl and it wasn't until recently, with people telling me it made them think of Lindsay Lohan, that I started to not like it as much... (i really don't follow that whole scene, so it never crossed my mind)

If you heard a little girl named Lindsay, would you automatically think of Lindsay Lohan? And what do you think of it as a girl's name?

Also I really like Lindsay Kate... but it seems on my list to have gotten more thumbs down than up! So if you could suggest some middle names for it, it would be much appreciated :]

Thanks in advance ♥

Jacob Isaac Rechcygl, or Isaac Jacob Rechcygl

My first sons name will be Landon Cole Rechcygl... but should I have another (hopefully!) my two favorite names for a boy right now are Jacob & Isaac. I like them together both ways, but was curious which you like & think sounds better?

I kind of prefer Isaac as the first name, but am thinking maybe they sound better the other way?

Also what do you think of the following?

Isaac James

Isaac Evan

Isaac Parker

Jacob Evan

Jacob Benjamin

Jacob Dennis (Dennis after my fiance's father)

The last name will be Rechcygl (pronounced rek-sig-uhl)

Thanks in advance!! :)

Hi all!

I've changed my name list around a bit and was hoping you could vote, & tell me what you think of them!

http://www.babynames.com/namelist/9689992

Any feedback or suggestions is welcome! And any middle names you think suit better, or different names in general.

Constructive criticism is also welcome, just no need to be rude please :)

Oh & the last name is pronounced Rex-ig-ul

Thanks!!

My fiance is 3/4 hispanic, and we were trying to find a nice name for a girl that we liked, to honor his mother. Her name was Maria, and she is no longer with us. We would use her real name but we were looking for something with a little bit of a twist, that's not as common.

I came across the name Maraya (ma-ray-uh).

It's not made up, it's a variant of the spanish name Mireya, I just think the spelling is nicer. She could also go by the nn Raya, which I think is adorable :)

What do you think?

And also which spelling do you prefer... Mireya or Maraya, or another perhaps?

Thanks in advance!

oh and any mn suggestions? the last name begins with Rex...

I would like a more american sounding mn to go with it!

Hi all!

Still working on baby #1 but I would greatly appreciate your input on my name list and any suggestions you may have for alternate first/middle names.

Thanks!! & 10 pts to the best answer :)

I have this dress:

& am planning on wearing it out to dinner on Valentines day, but I need a little fashion advice please! What should I wear with it? heels or boots? leggings/tights or neither? Being that it's about 20 degrees or less outside here this time of year, I don't want to be too cold! Also suggestions for jackets/sweaters?

Thanks all!

I'm trying to find a first name that I like for a girl that goes with the middle name Brynn, I think I'm pretty set on having that as the middle name. Right now I really like Taylor Brynn, but am having second thoughts on it... What do you think? (I really like the nn Tae)

I don't like overly common names(Sarah, Kate), although some of the more recent ones I do like (Ava, Adalyn, Rowan, etc). I Can't use any of those though for various reasons... but any suggestions would be appreciated!

Oh & the last name is Rechcygl (Rek-sig-ul)

Thanks for your help!

I'm looking for boys and girls names that mean trust, or something to that effect. Most likely to be used as a middle name, so it's ok if they are a little different. Thanks!

I am not pregnant, but my fiance and I are TTC our first! We have started thinking of names we like for boys and girls and have come up with a few of our favorites. I would like your honest input on our list!

If you could go here and rate the names..

http://www.babynames.com/namelist/9683625

and also let me know what you think!

Just a little info... Landon & Cole are the two names me and my fiance both agree on for a boy! He also likes Caleb. Dennis is his father's middle name, & Benjamin was the first name that popped into his head and it has just kind of stuck around.

For girls we both agree on Aylin and Taylor... & I have loved Rhiannyn since I was little!

Thanks! :)

Ok I've been trying not to ask a "Do you think I could be pregnant?" question, because I know everyone asks this! However I have more than convinced myself I am (i would like to think I know my body, & I just "feel" pregnant!). But I am looking for your thoughts, honest ones!

So here's the deal... My fiance and I have been having unprotected sex for almost 6 months now, not necessarily trying to conceive before now, but would be happy if I got pregnant. AF came last on Dec. 17th and was early (which is unusual for me, im usually right on 28 days). I do not know the exact days we had sex, but we do often and so there would be a good chance we did around when I was ovulating. On January 2nd, I had slight spotting pinkish in color and only twice when I wiped (sorry if TMI)... this is also very unusual to me, and I can never remember having spotting before. A few days after that I started feeling nauseous, i've had pains near my ovaries and in my lower abdomen, my nipples have been really sore and red, i've been getting frequent headaches, going to the bathroom more often, eating more often, and even been a lot more tired than usual. I took a hpt on Jan 13 (one day before my missed period), and another on Jan 16th... both of which were negative. I was starting to lose hope, but still had the symptoms and AF was still a no show. This past saturday night (Jan 17th) I woke up in the middle of the night with period-like cramps, and they continued through most of sunday. This is wierd for me because I don't normally get cramps until the day after I start. And then sadly, sunday afternoon AF came... or so I'm thinking? It started very light, just spotting all through sunday (it usually starts very heavy for the first 2 days). And then this morning until now it was more of a regular flow, but much lighter than normal still. My cramps also have been almost non-existent today. I still feel pregnant though, pain(not period like) by my ovaries, tired, sore nipples (not usual with my period)... etc.

I got a little curious today and started looking around for answers and read about decidual bleeding... and started to think maybe I wasn't completely crazy in being so convinced I'm pregnant?

I know I'm most likely looking way to far into this and letting my hopes get the best of me, which is why I'm hoping maybe you guys can bring me back down to earth. Or do you think it's possible I'm actually pregnant and just tested too early because AF was a little off?

I know some of you will say test again, or go see the doctor... but i've read that if it is decidual it most likely won't show up positive until after it's done. And I have made a dr's appt but she cant see me until next week... so I was just looking for some thoughts in the mean time.

Thanks in advance for the help, and baby dust to you all!

My fiance recently got ordered to do 40 hours of community service for the belief that he was carrying a concealed weapon (really silly actually, he had it in his car because we were going to the range and he got pulled over and he TOLD the cop it was there in his door jam and he still got charged with it, it was perfectly visible as well).

Anyway he only has one month left to do it and everywhere he calls is full on volunteers. He works 40+ hours a week as a manager also and so his hours for getting it done are bad as well.

My question is does anyone from new hampshire have an idea as to where he might be able to go to get it done (somewhere preferably with flexible hours) that they will honor in court? Thanks in advance!

(Also they had given him a list with places to try but he cant find it, so if anyone else has this list or knows how he might be able to get it that would be appreciated too!)

My fiance and I haven't necessarily been trying to conceive but we are at a point in our lives/relationship where having a child would be okay. We haven't used protection in the last five months & have sex at least every other day and as often as 2-3x a day and I was starting to get nervous that I might not be able to get pregnant normally. Then last month my period came a week and a half earlier than normal, and usually my periods are pretty spot-on... I shouldn't have gotten it until the 28th of December and it instead started December 17th. It was also really heavy with lots of clotting and I had horrible cramps the whole 5 days (normally I just get them the first day or two). I thought maybe I had had a miscarriage without realizing I was pregnant.

However about 6 days after I should have actually gotten my period, and 16 days after I did (Jan 2nd), I had slight spotting a few times, but it was only that day and then went away. I have never had spotting between periods before ever, but thought maybe it had something to do with my last period coming early (but am hearing now it could be implantation bleeding?). Two days before that though I thought I might have gotten a 24 hour flu because I had thrown up and was very nauseaus the whole next day and had horrible stomach pain. But ever since the spotting I have had nauseau almost once a day, my fiance has told me he thinks my breasts are getting bigger (and my nipples have been sore), i've been going to the bathroom more frequently, and I'm hungry every couple hours!

If I go by when I had my last period then I should get mine in the next few days. I took a pregnancy test saturday hoping to find something out, but it was negative, I'm going to try again in a few days. My finace is convinced I am though, and he is getting all excited about it... I've tried figuring out if it the dates make sense but am thrown off by my last period.

Do you think it's possible I am pregnant?
