Question 3

can you please explain why some women get sick during pregnancy and others don't?

Accepted Answer

Everyone's different: There is nor rhyme or reason, but some think it has to do with hormone levels.  This has not been proven.

Question 4

question about pregnancy. do you get more or just bigger fat cells during a pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

More if: My recollection of med school listed 3 times in life when you add fat cells; early infancy, puberty & pregnancy. Existing fat cells can always enlarge, but the hormonal flux of these periods seems to play a big role in adding cells.

Question 5

i had heelp with my 2nd pregnancy, no problems with the first, i want to get pregnant again but scared of developing heelp again, what are the chances?

Accepted Answer

It can happen: Interesting that you had hellp syndrome on your 2nd but not your 1st. The highest risk would be on your 1st pregnancy. Once someone has had hellp syndrome they are at higher risk to get it again than someone who never had it. It's also true that the chances  on your 3rd is lower than your chances of getting it on your 1st or 2nd. Your doc will need monitor the pregnancy closely.

Question 6

can you get two rhogams during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Sure, if needed.: Several not uncommon scenarios would merit Rhogam administration at least twice in the same pregnancy: e.g. After amniocentesis and at 28 weeks/postpartum, after fall/trauma and at 28 weeks/postpartum.

Question 7

can you get hypoglycemia during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It is best to eat more frequent smaller meals.

Question 8

is it safe to get a massage during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes it is safe.

Question 9

what happens if you get an x-ray during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Slight risk: Having an X-ray during pregnancy is generally considered safe. It's highly unlikely that an X-ray during pregnancy will harm a developing baby as most X-ray exams won't expose the baby to direct radiation. Also a leaded apron can be worn to shield your abdomen from the radiation. The exception is abdominal X-rays which directly target the abdomen. It is still wise to postpone non-emergent X-rays.

Question 10

how often should you get ultrasounds during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Depends: There is debate about ultrasound in pregnancy. until the 1980s Ultrasound was not available, and women still had babies.

If there are no problems with the pregnancy, Many suggest a Fetal survey at about 19 weeks.

More scanning, only if there is a problem. However, there is a lot of variability in opinion.
