Question 1

condoms + withdrawal method. period is due end of the month, breasts don't hurt yet like they're supposed to. slight pelvic pain at times. pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely ...: If you use condoms exactly as directed and every time you have intercourse, they are quite effective--over 95%.  Your reported symptoms may be a little unusual for you, but do not suggest pregnancy.  Wait for your period, and don't worry even if it is a little late...that is common at your age. If/when it is more than a week late, do a pregnancy test. Good wishes:)

Question 2

can sniffing gasoline harm you or your baby while pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Yes!: Gasoline can be a health hazard if you inhale concentrated fumes for too long or get it on your skin. Symptoms of overexposure to gas vapors include: respiratory problems-coughing and trouble breathing; rash-skin contact with gasoline; irritation/burning in the eyes from gas splashes; dizziness; weakness, numbness in arms and legs, or burning sensation; rapid heart rate; nausea/vomiting.

Question 3

i got gasoline on my skin and im 7 weeks pregnant. is my baby okay?

Accepted Answer

: The skin is enough of a barrier that the gasoline cannot enter your bloodstream after that contact. gents must enter the blood to affect the fetus. I would not consider this event a problem.

Question 4

during my 7th month of pregnancy i sniffed few drops of gasoline for few days.. could that be harmful to the baby?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely : Sniffing gas is not healthy.  I would recommend you stop doing that.

Question 5

gasoline got spilled in the garage and the smell is now through the house. i'm 6 weeks pregnant. is the smell harmful to my baby & the development?

Accepted Answer

See below: The smell is not harmful to the fetus.

Question 6

today i did two times pregnant test, came out negative. what should i do the?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy not likely: Today's home pregnancy tests are very accurate and not affected by foods, herbs, common illnesses, sexually transmitted diseases, or medications. A correctly done urine test will give a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (or when conception might have happened) or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon.

Question 7

i have a 2 month old baby. i had cold sores ever since my childhood. i also had it 3 times during my pregnancy and i got it now. i'm worried since i read it's dangerous in young babies. is my baby protected w/ my antibodies if i had it my whole life?

Accepted Answer

: This germ is deadly to babies born through a birth canal infected by the germ during the first outbreak. (Not your case here) It is seldom a problem when they are born to a woman with the history you cited. Your antibodies would protect baby during pregnancy &amp; for the first several months, but that would diminish over time.  If you feel a cold sore coming on avoid the kisses for a while.

Question 8

im 30 weeks pregnant with twins, i used meth hard the first of my pregnancy before i found out i was pregnant, used lightly a few times after that, my last use was march 13th, i've gotten help for it but my question is will it be out of my babies?

Accepted Answer

: Since each pregnancy is different and each woman's body is different, there is no way to know right now whether the babies are affected. Meth use in pregnancy can result in premature birth, low birth weight and other problems. Glad you quit now. You should let your Dr know so that they can do a high level ultrasound to determine if there are any problems in the babies.

Question 9

i'm 17 weeks pregnant with triplets and go to sleep on my sides but often times wake up on my back and my arms are asleep. is it affecting the babies?

Accepted Answer

No: Try to sleep on your left side, it will keep pressure off your aorta and provide better blood supply to the babies. All the best and I hope all goes well.

Question 10

i have s struggled with anxiety and now im 11 wks pregnant, my anxiety has become even more exteme. will stress hurt my babies development?

Accepted Answer

Stress: pregnancy: Constant stress/anxiety is not unusual in pregnancy, especially with a "first pregnancy", but this has not statistically been proven to cause serious problems with fetal development, unless accompanied by eating disorders:  nutritional deficiencies can cause serious problems in pregnancy. See your OB physician and discuss possible therapies .
