Well I DID have bleeding with my ectopic pregnancy in August, so it is possible.

Posted By: Lynn on 2006-03-27
In Reply to: Yes, spotted off and on through 2 successful pregnancies plus had ectopics...sm - Old MT

An early ultrasound at the hospital was incorrectly read at the hospital as intrauterine, but when my OB/GYN did another ultrasound, it was ectopic.

She had an ectopic pregnancy. They were showing everything that happened in the past. Next week it

bleeding heart

Further bleeding per Dr. **** will affect a hysterectomy.

Typical bleeding heart everybody is a victim mentality, except of course...
those who are smart enough to not get pregnant at 14, finish school, work hard, and pay for  and provide for themselves.  Then they are villified by YOU for not wanting to just give it all away to those who have NOT made good choices for themselves in this infinite land of opportunity that we live  in, the same country where  people around the world are knocking on the doors to get into, and HAVE  come here and taken advantage of the opportunity here.  Opportunity doesn't mean it's handed to you.  Sick, young, old, down on luck, or having a rough spell is one thing, but a lifetime of mooching is something else.  There IS a difference.  But that shades of gray world you live in doesn't allow you to see with any clarity.
These knee jerk bleeding heart liberals could not take responsibility for their
actions if it hit them in the face as it did with Mrs. Twitty.  The Arubans are sick and tired of her and frankly so am I.  Wash the makeup off your face, take off the false eyelashes and go grieve for your daughter.
Not unless it was emergency surgery for bleeding, perforation, etc. Food would contaminate the

I don't know the particular MD, but I had plastic surgery in August. sm
What I did was talk to nurses. Nurses are a wealth of info, and they really know the docs. In my talking to nurses, I even found a few who had chosen the surgeon for themselves. I'm not shy, so I'll tell you that I had breast reduction surgery. Aside from my talking to nurses who worked in anesthesia, surgery, and oncology departments, I also spent a good amount of time with the doc. I made sure he was board certified, asked lots of detailed questions, and he also showed me photos of previous patients and the results of the surgery. He showed me photos of both good and bad results, which was a really good thing. There are risks to any surgery, and it's good to actually see what can go wrong.
It took a while, but it really paid off on the end. My surgeon and I communicated well, and I'm very happy with the results of my surgery.
I just did the same thing back in August - sm
upgraded my "old" phone and bought a new flip phone for $20 at Dollar General (they wanted $50 on-line for the same phone. Called and had my minutes transfered, now all calls are 1 "unit" a call no matter where I am (was most 2 on my old one as I was usually roaming when I used it). I also got the double minutes for life plan, so all I have to do now is the yearly connection fee ($99), still a lot cheaper than buying and signing up for a 2-year contract anywhere else. The only difference I see with my new phone is it does not work as well as the old one did (it seems to work in more areas); but it works very well at home (the old one barely worked here if at all), just cuts out around the kids school and south of there (very remote there). Great phone to have for anyone who only uses it for emergencies or quick calls like, "oh, do we need milk, I am at the store." type stuff.
I asked in early August to change
accounts and was told NO. I also have a very difficult account with mostly ESL docs and residents, who ask you to go back and correct a million things or stay on there saying umm, umm, umm.

Would love to switch accounts or offices - something. I don't want to quit.
Sept 5 - have a calm August up ahead - sm
the last 2 months have been nuts with Dr. appts (eye, dentist, oncologist, regular checkups); only have 2 scheduled this month, yeah, and only 1 weekend trip. Try to do some local stuff in the remaining month we have though if we don't fry first. Hit 100 today here in VA (NE of Richmond); it's 99 now and 5:30 p.m. NUTS!!!
pregnancy
I spotted the entire 24 weeks until my youngest son was born. He had all of the things that come with prematurity, but is now a healthy 11-yr-old. I had a prior C-section and severe endometriosis though. In my case, they called it incompetent cervix. Is this your first pregnancy? If I were you, I'd take the others' advice and try to relax (off your feet) for a couple of days. I hope all turns out well for you.
This is my 2nd pregnancy...sm

My son is about 3-1/2 years old now.  PERFECT pregnancy..No complications, no spotting.  Everything was perfect.  That is why I am so scared this time.  I know all pregnancy are not alike.  Please pray that everything works out fine.  I really, really do appreciate all of the good thoughts and comments. 


I will keep you updated on the progress Tuesday. 


Pregnancy
Not much advise, just possible congrats if you are pregnant. Those tests were always accurate with me and it seems like it may be saying you are. Maybe wait another day and try another test. Again, sorry I'm not much help. Sending good vibes your way.
Pregnancy
From my experience, with my own pregnancies & patient's pregnancies....the little faint line you are seeing is an indication of a positive pregnancy. The reason for it being so faint is most commonly because you are very newly pregnant (in a stage that most women never even know that they are pregnant yet). The line is faint because it is reflecting the HCG levels in your urine and it has found alittle bit, but not a lot. Thus a faint line appears. In a week or so, expect a much darker line. My guess is that you are probably pregnant and I would just retest in a few days to make sure. Also, keep in mind that not all women are able to get reliable results with the at home tests. Several patients in the past have received negative readings on their at home tests and came into the doctor's office for a serum pregnancy test to find out for sure...Many were pregnant! The HCG hormone doesn't always show up for all women when they use at home tests. Best of luck to you and your family!
40 degrees in August? Where do you live? Even Alaska is warm now.

Here in Cherokee County Alabama August 8 is first student day.
My DH works at the local school and he has been getting ready.
It slows down every August and January on both ER accounts that I have. This time sm
of year is the worst. I forget about it every year until it happens again. It usually picks up again at the end of August and then is really busy until the end of the year. It slows down a bit (not much) in the beginning of January and then is really, really busy until mid to late July into August.

I have been doing this for 13 years and the only year ever that it did not happen to me was last summer. Not sure why, but both hospitals stayed busy the entire 2006.


One way I knew with my last pregnancy...
My breasts were VERY tender...even before I realized my period was late. I stopped at the store on my way home that very night, did the test as soon as I got home, and voila...baby #3 on the way...any symptoms of pregnancy besides being late on your period? That's a good indication of yes or no...good luck!
Illness/pregnancy
These are supposed to be treated the same - 12 weeks leave - my mother-in-law got sick last year and when she could not go back to work by the date that the hospital specified (she's a nurse) they terminated her from her job - and she had worked at this place for 20 years. I would seek legal advice on this subject before telling anyone at work.
Seafood and Pregnancy
No, they shouldn't because of the risk of food poisoning and/or mercury content.
same with tuna and pregnancy......nm

You have to work in their Harrison office. I contacted them in August, but I live across the

In North Alabama, school starts back August 4th. We get out the end of May.
:O)
Try Fact Plus pregnancy test
My OB-GYN used to use these in her office.  She said they were the most accurate.
I only used a hand pump for last pregnancy sm
But I WAH and never really left my son. I used an Avent Isis - a really great hand pump.

Now, for working moms, they recommend a dual electric pump - if you are nosy and want to check them out, 2 of them are called Medela Pump In Style and Ameda Purely yours. The electric ones are supposed to (hopefully) get more milk faster, as both sides can let down at the same time. In addition, it cuts down pumping time doing both at once.

I am pregnant again right now and don't plan on going electric if I can help it :) I'd much rather feed right from the tap!

I had similar problem with my first pregnancy.

I had more bleeding than you, but no cramping or any other issues.  It was in my first trimester.  I can't remember how far along I was, but it was fairly early.  Anyway the first thing my OB/GYN asked me was had I had *ex and I had a few hours earlier.   She wasn't the least concerned, but of course I was scared to death.  She told me not to have any "activity" for a while and I was a cough potato the next day or two just to be safe, but my son is 15 now and I had no similar problems throughout the rest of the pregnancy although I was having "relations."    I think she said a hormone in the *perm could cause the bleeding.  


Think positive and take it easy.  Let us know how it goes. 


 


Positive serum pregnancy
Yes, it happened to me spotting on tissue only for 2 days, son is now almost 20. Doctor first said she did not know if it was a viable pregnancy, told me to go home and take it easy for a week, I did just what she said. Bleeding stopped by the next day. Good luck to you.
I spotted from week 10 through 17 of my second pregnancy. (sm)
My daughter is now almost 10. I'm sure everything will be fine. I will be praying for you.
Positive pregnancy test
Indeed I've had that experience with two months of bleeding/spotting with a positive pregnancy test, the result of which was a lovely 11 lb 9 1/2 oz, 26-inch long baby boy born by natural delivery with a smile on his beautiful face. The lovely boy is now 6'4" inches tall and the love of my life. My prayers go with you for a successful outcome.
YES, if the pregnancy or delivery was complicated...nm

Has anyone ever had a positive serum pregnancy test and...sm
then started bleeding or spotting without any pain?  I had 2 positive urine tests and then started spotting or having a period but not as heavy (only sign of blood was on tissue).  I have been doing this for 2 days, so I went to the ER today.  Serum test was 154...I have to go back in 2 days in which time they say it should double if everything is okay.  Has anyone had experience like this and came out okay? 
Yes, I had a period, no joke, for 5 months of pregnancy.
Doc didn't understand, baby was healthy, born on time, no complications.
That I can understand. A planned pregnancy is a much different issue

August 24th. Can't wait for those bigger paychecks I'll get when I have fewer interuptions!

Is the patient pregnant? ITP is usally intrauterine pregnancy in OB.

Has anyone ever been late for their period but got a negative pregnancy test
my boobs hurt, my stomach is swollen, I throw up all the time, anyone else ever thought they were pregnant and had this happen?  I'm 4 days late and the test said no... So I would think that the test would be correct.. I have never in my life have had sore breasts I feel like I'm nuts ...
Yes. I was pregnant anyways. The home pregnancy test was wrong.
Then the doctor told me to have a D&C because he couldn't find the heartbeat on ultrasound, so he told me it was a miscarriage. Actually, my ovulation was off. I refused to have the D&C and my son was born 7.5 months later.

Are you trying to get pregnant? Are you using birth control? Sometimes you can feel pregnant or even have a blighted ovum or early miscarriage that won't register with any pregnancy hormone. I had one at 10 weeks. Swollen boobs and water retention can be caused by hormones or stress. I would suggest to just relax and see what happens in the next week, then try another PG test.
i stopped reading at the unwed pregnancy part
statistics have shown that teen pregnancy has gone down in the past 30 years. Most unwed pregnancies these days are by choice by grown women. In 1996 I was 25, wanted a child and was not married, so I made the decision to have a child on my own. Is that a bad thing? Now, I own my own home, my daughter wants for nothing and is a straight A student, and I am by no means rich or come from money. I work hard and have instilled good values in my daughter. I don't see that as any part of some explosion of bad behavior....sorry but I have to disagree with you. If you are offended by what you saw/heard/smelled that is fine but to judge these people as "bad", well that's for a higher power to decide, don't you think?
I am only 40---starting to early....I found that pregnancy kills brain cells - nm
