ANSWER:
Don't eat:•Raw meat such as sushi, seafood, rare or uncooked beef, or poultry because of the risk of contamination with coliform bacteria, toxoplasmosis, and salmonella.
•Raw eggs, or foods containing raw egg such as Caesar dressing, mayonnaise, homemade ice cream or custard, unpasteurized eggnog, or Hollandaise sauce because raw eggs may be contaminated with salmonella.
•Soft cheese such as blue cheese, feta, Brie, Camambert, and Latin-American soft white cheeses such as queso blanco and queso fresco because they may harbor harmful bacteria.
•Fish containing accumulated levels of mercury in their fatty tissues such as shark, swordfish, king mackerel, tilefish. When a pregnant woman consumes large amounts of mercury, her baby may suffer brain damage resulting in developmental delays (for example, delays in learning to walk or talk).
•Fish containing high levels of an industrial pollutant called polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in their fatty tissues such as bluefish and striped bass, and freshwater fish such as salmon, pike, trout, walleye from contaminated lakes and rivers. According to the March of Dimes, consumption of large amounts of PCBs by pregnant women is linked to decreased attention, memory, and IQ in their babies. Check with your local Health Department to determine which fish in your area are safe to eat.What should you eat?
WHOLE GRAINS
You need plenty of complex carbohydrates every day as a rich source of B vitamins, fiber, and trace minerals such as zinc, selenium, chromium and magnesium and more. Dietitians encourage you to strongly emphasize whole grains and the breads, cereals, pastas and more that are made from them, while avoiding sugary foods, full of empty calories. This means choosing whole wheat bread, oatmeal, buckwheat pancakes, whole grain cereals and the like over white bread, cookies made with sugar and white flour, commercial muffins and similar foods. Sprinkle wheat germ on foods as well - one quarter cup of wheat germ contains 15% of the RDA for protein, vitamin E and iron; 30% for thiamine; 10 % for riboflavin and B6; 20% for folic acid and magnesium, 35% for phosphorous and 30% for zinc. Whole grains simply pack more nutritional punch than even enriched refined grains, so read labels carefully. As an added bonus, many women find these whole grains help calm a queasy stomach during the first trimester, and are a quick fix for low blood sugar which can occur at any time during pregnancy, and lead to lightheaded, dizzy feeling if you go too long between meals. (Always report all of your symptoms, included dizziness, to your doctor.)PROTEIN
You need more protein, and should aim to include two or three servings of protein in your diet every day, of about three ounces each. Good sources of protein include meat, fish, eggs and poultry. Higher fat sources of protein, for those having trouble gaining enough weight, include peanut butter. Choose lean sources if you're gaining too rapidly. If you're a vegetarian, work hard to include complete vegetable protein combinations in your diet using portions of legumes and grains together, or dairy protein by combining dairy and either legume or grain servings.CALCIUM
You need about 900 milligrams every day, and 1200 milligrams during the third trimester. Get your calcium from skim milk and cheeses, and remember hard cheeses have more calcium per ounce than softer cheeses. Eat non-fat yogurt, and you'll be getting protein as well. Snacks such as almonds, baked good made with soy flour and dried apricots and figs also contain calcium.GREEN LEAFY AND YELLOW VEGETABLES AND FRUITS
These vegetables are excellent sources of fiber and vitamin A (you need 5,000 international units of vitamin A a day while pregnant and 6,000 when nursing.) They also offer many trace vitamins, minerals and metals. Again, you can choose double duty foods - like cantaloupe, broccoli, peppers and tomatoes (including tomato juice, sauce and paste) which also provide vitamin C. Try to eat three servings a day.IRON
You need iron-rich foods because your body is working hard to create the extra blood supply you need to support you and your growing baby. Your pregnancy supplement should include about 30 - 60 mg of iron. You don't want to oversupplement if you don't need to, because iron supplements can cause diarrhea or constipation in some women. Try to include a iron-rich foods such as these in your diet every day, but do take your supplement as well: beef, chickpeas and other dried beans and peas, raisins and other dried fruits, spinach, pumpkin seeds and soy products.VITAMIN C FOODS
Have two servings of vitamin C-rich foods every day, for about 100 milligrams. Try to eat fruits and vegetables raw, whenever possible, as cooking reduces their vitamin content. Examples of tasty vitamin C sources include berries of all kind, oranges, tangerines, cantaloupe, grapefruit, mango, papaya, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, kale, tomatoes, peppers and spinach.

QUESTION:
Best foods to eat while pregnant?
I want to know what are the best foods and recipes to eat for my baby to get as much nutrients as it can to make it as healthy as possible.-
ANSWER:
You want to eat a bunch of fruits and vegetables. Preferably uncooked because they have the most fiber and vitamins. You want to drink plenty of water. And don't forget the calcium. If you don't get enough calcium your baby will take it from else where. It happened to me with my first pregnancy and my teeth suffered big time. There are also a lot of great book you can get at the library that will tell you exactly how much of what you should be eating. Congrats and good luck

How To Make A Diaper Cake
Hosting a baby shower or looking for a great gift for a new mom? A diaper cake makes a fantastic centerpiece for any baby shower and is also a very nice gift that the new mom will find useful. Here are the basics on how to make your own diaper cake:
1) First, you must decide how big you want the diaper cake. The size of the cake will determine how many diapers you need. Here are some general guidelines:
Top tier - 5-6 diapers
2nd Tier - 15 diapers
3rd Tier - 30 diapers
2) Roll the diapers vertically into cylinders and use scotch tape or rubber bands to hold the shape. Make the bottom tiers first by attaching the diapers together either with safety pins or tape. You can easily form a cylinder which will represent the bottom layers of the cake.
3) If you like, you can wrap the bottom layers of the cake with a blanket. You can attach the tiers to each other with adhesive or pins. Glue can also be used, but is messier when trying to disassemble the cake.
4) The top tier can contain a special item, like a baby bottle keepsake or teddy bear. For a bottle, you can attach the diapers around the bottle. Stuffed animals can be pinned to the top layer of the cake.
5) Other items can also be used to decorate the cake, including pacifiers, ribbons, and colored paper. Feel free to use your creativity to attach other useful items or fun decorations to the cake.
Diaper cakes have become increasingly popular at baby showers. With a little time and effort, you can create a beautiful centerpiece for your baby shower or an unforgettable gift for the new mom to be.

Baby Gender Choice
Baby Gender Selection - When It's All About Choice
Baby gender selection is a method of selecting the sex of your yet to be conceived baby. To have a preferred choice on the sex of your baby can sometimes halt the whole process of trying to get pregnant. What if you want a girl, but get a boy or vice versa?
When you have an image in your mind, a little girl dressed in the palest pink, or a bouncing baby boy wearing that gorgeous sailor suit that you bought. Along with this thought is the vision of the dollar sign. After all, you can't get baby gender selection for free.
Whichever process you have thought of pursuing, it is of course going to cost money. Your hard earned cash. And will it guarantee you that beautiful baby boy, or that pretty little girl. No - It won't. Will it guarantee you a pregnancy? Sorry, but that's a 'No' yet again. Most medical methods of baby sex selection rely on IVF to complete the process. IVF has only a 30-35% chance of ending in pregnancy.
The main problem is that only 'one' method of baby gender selection comes anywhere near to the 100% guarantee that you should rightfully expect. PGD - Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis is a process where the embryo is screened before being placed into your uterus. Normally this process is only allowed for medical reasons, but some clinics are carrying out this method as a way of gender selection. These clinics are making a fortune as PGD is the most expensive form of baby gender selection.
In some countries PGD is banned, but if it is available in your country, then how much are you willing to pay? OK, so you have an extremely good chance of getting the gender that you want. But what about actual pregnancy statistics of PGD? Yet again they're not that good - because PGD relies on IVF for implanting an embryo into your uterus, so unfortunately you are back to that 30-35% chance of becoming a Mom!
Are there other ways of achieving baby gender selection?
In this day and age, there are alternative methods for just about every problem imaginable. Natural methods for curing a headache, natural ways to reduce labor pain when giving birth. So it's not surprising that are natural ways to conceive a boy - or conceive a girl!
Natural gender selection methods include charting ovulation, altering your diet slightly, using the correct positions during intercourse, and actually preparing your body for pregnancy!
From the Shettles method, to the Jonas method there are lots of ways to conceive the baby with your choice of gender. What's more they don't cost a fortune, and the success rates are 80% plus. The extra good news is that you're not going through invasive medical procedures and emptying your bank balance at the same time.

QUESTION:
What are some good articles/websites for people's opinions on baby gender choice?
I am doing a persuasive essay in my 8th grade Language Arts class, and I have chosen to do it on whether or not choosing a baby's gender is okay or not. I am personally against it, but I need two articles- One thats for it and one that is against it.
Also, I would like your opinion. Are you for choosing a baby's gender or against it? Why or why not. Give reasons that it would be okay and reasons it would not be okay.THANK YOU!
-
ANSWER:
Well I'm against it.Gender chance is a 50/50 split. If there is a preferable gender from the majority, then less of the other gender will be able to be born. This would greatly reduce reproduction, as heterosexual opposite genders would be more difficult to match up.
It's sort of nature's way of making things all right and continuous.

QUESTION:
Is it possible to produce the baby of your choice gender?
It is said that by following some patern of women menstrual periods the gender of the baby can be selected to quite an extent.-
ANSWER:
I have a friend who "chose" the sex of all four of her kids. She got a book from a local bookstore and it tells you all about it. It has to do with the acidity of your vagina and at certain times of the month you are more acidic and only the females can get through it. At other times of the month there is much less acidity and only the males can live in there and then there is that time in between when both can be a possibility. I am just going by what she said, but supposedly it worked for her four times.

QUESTION:
opnion on a baby gender choice?
i've decided if i have one baby i want to kow the sex but not till the end so i was thinking that when it came time to find out the sex of the baby i'd have the doc write it down and place it in an envelope and not tell me and let everyone else know then i would love to find out at my baby shower please let me know what ya think bout this-
ANSWER:
I think it's a good idea, but are you sure they can all keep the secret from you?My husband did not want to know the sex of our first child, but I accidentally told him before she was born. I didn't even mean to tell him. We were discussing something about the baby and he knew from what I said. Oops!
Also, many people like to buy things from a baby gift registry. If you do not know the sex of the baby, you will be unable to pick gender-appropriate clothing. Therefore, you may not receive any baby clothing that immediately gives away the sex of the baby.

14 Weeks Pregnant
What Happens During the 10th and 11th Week of Pregnancy?
The end of the first trimester allows the pregnant mother to feel much better about the significantly reduced risk of miscarriage. For the start of the second trimester, pregnant mothers will be experiencing discomfort and pain due to your baby's rapid growth and feelings of discomfort and pain as your body adjusts to this growth . These pains can be alarming but are mostly harmless. If you are 14 weeks pregnant, you must realize that this is the best time for you to exercise. Exercising can help pregnant mothers prepare their body for expansion and rapid growth of baby. Moreover, exercising is most advisable during week 14 since hints of miscarriages are now in a blur. This is why the second trimester is known to provide more energy for exercise than the first trimester.
So what kinds of exercise can best fit mother who are 14 weeks pregnant? Logically, heavy weights should not be recommended to you and will never be used during this stage and through out the pregnancy. Moreover, exercises that require you to lay on your back is not recommended since it furthers the pressure on the spine and the vena cava. You may find yourself bloated and larger this week but diet pills are not advisable for you. Any type of exercise that gears with a slow start and can be developed into a routine let a physician run the exercise first before embarking on it.
On the 14th week of pregnancy, the baby starts to feed on the placenta. The mother should now avoid toxins from cleaning materials that may tend to seep into the skin and harm the baby inside. Moreover, you should be aware of other diseases like Toxoplasmosis which is transmitted to cat feces. If you are pregnant, it is recommended that you do away with your pet cat because the effects of the disease to your baby are significant. As you endure your being 14 weeks pregnant, you also have to endure hassles of constipation which can be eased by including fruits and vegetables in your diet. Make water your best ally in your fight against constipation. If not addressed at once, constipation may lead to severe hemorrhoids.
Pregnancy week 15 marks significant growth for you and your baby inside. Your physician can now measure your baby's fundal height which is the distance from the top of the uterus to the pelvic bone. This kind of measurement is corresponding to the pregnancy week and aids in the reaffirmation of your due date. Most common pregnancy symptoms which are dominant during this week include excessive salivation, colds and stuffy nose. The relaxed walls of the uterus can also cause the mother to experience urinary tract infection. To know if you have this infection is to identify signs like burning sensation when urinating, vomiting and lower back pain. To counter UTI on pregnancy week 15, consult a physician for safe medicines that could alleviate the infection.
Noticeable changes in your body and in your baby marks the beginning of the second trimester. Gear up for more essential developments as you track your pregnancy week by week.

QUESTION:
14 Weeks Pregnant - any suggestions on how to feel the baby move?
I am 14 weeks pregnant and would like to try and feel the baby move! Any suggestions? Is it easier if you are laying flat, during a certain time of day, or if you have a full bladder or anything like that? And what does it feel like? Thanks!-
ANSWER:
I have never been pregnant (We're ttc) but my friend who had her 3rd baby in November said that she could first feel it when she was skwinched down...like when she sat in one of the little kid chairs at her work (pre-school teacher). So try sitting on something low like a soccer ball or small bucket. Good luck!

QUESTION:
How much were you showing at 14 weeks pregnant?
I am 14 weeks today and am worried I am a little small based on the belly pictures online. I've got a little pooch, but it has been the same for about a week or two now. People can tell I'm pregnant if they already know and look really hard. My belly gets bigger in the evenings and smaller in the mornings. Was everybody here "obviously" pregnant at 14 weeks? It's my first child.-
ANSWER:
I did the exact same thing around that time- I hadn't gained too much maybe a few lbs and My belly would change size all day.Don't listen to all the hype- people like to talk. Don't be worried either if there was a problem your doctor would tell you.
Chances are your a very fit person correct? Women who are in shape star showing later in the 1st pregnancy!
P.S. Now everyone tells me how HUGE i am so don't lose faith lol the change WILL come
Congrats

Best Chances Of Conceiving A Boy
Best Vitamins for Infertility - Good Vitamins You Can Use to Improve Your Chances of Naturally Conceiving
The problem with infertility is that it can be caused by a variety of factors. This is why practicing a healthy lifestyle is of paramount importance because it ensures that the reproductive tract remains in the best shape possible for conception.
One of the effective ways of enhancing fertility is taking vitamins and minerals. Through vitamins and minerals, the nutrients for promoting a healthy reproductive tract is provided. The following are the best vitamins for infertility:
1)Vitamin C. This is one of the two types of water soluble vitamins, the other being vitamin B complex. Vitamin C works as an antioxidant and helps normalize hormonal levels. However, it is important to take note not to take more than 750mg per day. Increased level causes thickening of cervical mucus which can make it difficult for sperm to move through the reproductive tract.
2)Vitamin E. This vitamin works best as an antioxidant, which counteracts the effects of free radicals created by the reaction of oxygen to other molecules. Through this reaction, cells are damaged. The reproductive cells are no exception. Taking as much as 400 IU will prevent the damaging effects of free radicals and increase chances of conception.
The effects of the above best vitamins for infertility are commonly underestimated but may be the only thing that separates the condition of infertility from fertility. For women of reproductive age, taking vitamins C and E will not only result to a healthy reproductive organ but to an improved overall health as well.
Do you want to get pregnant within 4 weeks from now? If yes, then I recommend you use the techniques recommended in this infertility cure guide: Pregnancy Miracle, to significantly increase your odds of conceiving and giving birth to a healthy kid.

QUESTION:
Are the chances of conceiving a boy higher on the day of ovulation or the day after ovulation?
I thought the chances of conceiving a boy were best the day before ovulation, but I saw something yesterday showing the day after ovulation was best. What is the best day to conceive a boy?
So, if I am scheduled to ovulate on Tuesday, should I avoid having sex the previous Thursday to Monday on order to increase my chances of having a boy?-
ANSWER:
If you wait until after ovulation, it will be too late to conceive because eggs only live for 12 to 24 hours. The sperm need to be waiting for the egg not the other way around. You're highest days of conception are the day of an lh surge (positive opk) and the day after. Women ovulate 24-36 hours after their lh surge. The problem is that we never know when the surge started so we never know when that 24 to 35 hours begins. So waiting until the very last day possible (day after positive okp), you're lowering your chances of conceiving that month but the closer you have sex to actual ovulation, the higher you raise your chances for a boy. You have to avoid sex up to five days before lh surge to prevent any X sperm being in your tubes waiting for the egg.
Diet can also can increase your chaces of having a boy. It changes the ph in your body to boy sperm friendly. Women are natually have a ph that is more acidy then the semen. This is to protect our reporductive tracts from bacteria but nature provided a safe haven for the sperm by providing nourishing cm for them. Our bodies give sperm 20-30 mins before our ph kills any sperm that did not making it into the safety of our cm or uterus.Boy Diet (to increase chances for a baby boy)
Supplements:
Potassium 200 mg
Vitamin A 1000 mg
Vitamin K 100 mcgFluids:
Sodas (any dark soda except diet)
Coffee & tea (not too much coffee though)
Carrot juiceFoods:
Red Meat
Chocolate is high in potassium.
Liver
Dried Apricots
Avocados
CantalopeStay aways from wine, eggs, milk, cheese, and anything high in calcium.
You can change your ph with baking soda douches as well.
There's no 100% way of getting a boy unless you doing gender selecting through IVF but this helps increase your odds.

this is my ovulation calender and i was wondering which day would i have the best chance of conceiving?
Monday 13th September 2010 - First day of your cycleWednesday 22nd September 2010 - Best chance of conceiving a girl
Thursday 23rd September 2010 - A little bit fertile, best chance of conceiving a girl
Friday 24th September 2010 - Fertile, best chance of conceiving a boy
Saturday 25th September 2010 - VERY fertile, best chance of conceiving a boy
Sunday 26th September 2010 - Time to ovulate
Wednesday 6th October 2010 - A home pregnancy test may work now
would it be when it sais "VERY firtile" or would it be on the date of ovulation? and conceiving tips? thanks in advance
ps heres the site for anyone who would like to use it. www.babyhopes.com-
ANSWER:
You need to check out fertilityfriend.com to learn about charting temps and checking cervical mucus but for the lazy woman's ease of trying I would remind you of the fact that most women typically ovulate about 14 days BEFORE their period is due - not every woman has a 28 day cycle so do the math based on your cycle. Previous posters were right, sex a few days before for a girl and closer if you want to try for a boy around the time of ovulation but it's still a crap shoot. Just sit back and enjoy the sex without worrying about getting pregnant - stress from trying can actually keep it from happening among other reasons. If, after 6 months you are unsuccessful, you may want to talk to your doctor but go in with notes about what you did try so that they can determine what testing they may want to do at that point. It takes the average couple 6-12 months to catch the egg so hang in there and make it fun, not work! Best of luck!

Girls Who Want To Get Pregnant
The Best Foods To Eat To Have A Girl Baby (And The Foods You Should Avoid When You Want A Daughter)
I get a lot of emails and questions about which foods help you conceive a daughter or a baby girl. The other day, I received an email which asked me "what should I eat during pregnancy if I want a baby girl?" I had to explain to her that once you're pregnant, your baby's gender is set. It is predetermined the second that conception happens and you can't change this once it's done. Frankly, it's what you eat in the month or so BEFORE you become pregnant that is mostimportant. I'll explain this more in the following article.
Pulling For The X Sperm: If you want a daughter, then what has to happen is that the X sperm chromosomesbeat out the Y's (which produce boys.) Once the sperm fertilizes the egg, the gender of your baby is essentially set in stone. As long as the pregnancy is successful and results in a birth, an X fertilization will produce a female baby and a Y one will produce a male baby. The reason that you want to change your diet is that an acidic vaginal environment willweed out more of the Y's and make your chances better that you will get a girl child.
Foods That You Want To Eat And Those You Must Avoid: Every food has it's own unique PH. Some are acidic and some are alkaline in nature. There are food lists that will give you the numeric PH of each food. There are exceptions to each food group in the pyramid but in general, fruits, meatsand dairy products have a high PH.
You should avoid most vegetables because their PH is low. However, as I said, there is an exception to every rule. While fruits like blueberries and prunes are very acidic, there are fruits that are uncharacteristically alkaline. Examples are apples, tomatoes, and watermelon. As I said, most veggies have a low PH, but there are some that are acidic. Examples are most beans and some peas. As you can see, Ican generally tell you to eat fruits, meats, and dairy, but that's too general to becompletely effective as there are always a good amount of foods that don't fall into the category that you think that they might. I always tell people that it's really worth it to get the food lists that will give you an actual numeric range so that you really know whether you're safe or not.
Food Is Not The Only Thing To Consider: You can also douche to become more acidic. And, there are also PH testing strips that will tell you what number you are starting out with. Often, effective douche recipes are based on this number. This can keep you from just guessing or flying blind. These strips aren't expensive and you can continue to use them to chart and check your progress.
You'll also want to address your timing and how it corresponds with your ovulation schedule. Again, speaking generally, you want to conceive three to four days before your definitive ovulation date for a girl. This goes back to the fact that Y sperm don't live that long so by trying early, you'll help to weed them out with both timing and acidity. You have to be quite accurate in knowing when this day actually happens.That's whyI like the bodily fluid ovulation predictors that don't require you to guess.
Conceive A Girl is a website I put together to offer step by step instructions, hints, tips, and resources for couples wishing to conceive a baby girl. You'll find resources for douche recipes and food lists, as well as ovulation predictors and PH test strips. Take a look if you like at http://conceive-a-girl-baby.com/

QUESTION:
Why do so many teenage girls want to get pregnant?
I don't get it. I remember back when I was a teenager I never wanted to be pregnant. I always had this thought in mind that I would get a career, start making money, then have a baby later on in life because I knew that kids were expensive and I wanted to be a responsible adult and have enough cash to take care of my children. I wish that a lot of these teenage girls who want to get pregnant would wait and live their life a little. They need to have time to be themselves before they devote their lives to a baby. A lot of them also need to learn about responsibility. I'm turning 26 this week, have a great job (that I worked my butt off for), and am engaged. Is being a pregnant teenager the next big trend? If I were to have gotten pregnant when I was a teenager, my Mother and Stepfather would have killed me. It also sickens me to see teens pawning off their kids to their parents because they want to go out and party hardy instead of being a good parent and taking care of their kid/kids.-
ANSWER:
I don't know why so many want a baby...we grew up so poor that I sure did not want to start a family that young...I had things to do and places to go and people to meet...we had a loving childhood but with lots of kids we knew it was hard work to raise children

Best Chances Of Getting Pregnant
When Is The Best Time To Get Pregnant In Your Cycle
One of the most often asked questions about pregnancy is the ideal time to fall pregnant. It is neither the Xmas time nor the Valentine's Day. One should be good in arithmetic if you are serious about falling pregnant as it is completely dependent upon the ovulating days.
Now the question arises that how should one figure out this critical time? For people who are good in arithmetic needn't worry but others should get a hold of an Ovulation Calculator. It's critical to have some data about one's own body and its working to find out the possible dates of ovulation. The 'post ovulation time' or the 'Luteal Phase' is the time between ovulation and the 1st day of the menstrual cycle. This period is composed of fourteen days and is the same for most women.
After 14 days of the ovulation the period starts. Now what one has to know is the date due for the next period. By counting back 12 to sixteen days from this date, one is probably going to get the times of ovulation. For more in-depth clarity on this, read pregnancy miracle review.
Usually, ladies who've got a cycle of 28 days, ovulate on the 14th day. Since this is so vital to know to become pregnant, the ovulation date may also be checked through the BBT methodology or the Fundamental Body Temperature. This is a strategy that involves the recording of vaginal temperature each morning by a BBT thermometer ( with a fine calibration ). The thermometer displays a higher temperature on the day of ovulation the other days. To elucidate this fact in a faster way, the egg starts developing from the end of the menstrual cycle and between the 8th to 12th days it is at its maximum. So the opportunity to get pregnant is the most if one has intercourse on the 8th, the tenth and the 12th day. This is the best time to conceive.
One shocking fact related to falling pregnant is that the egg lives just for a period of twelve to sixteen hours in a cycle! Many gynecologists are convinced the lifespan of the egg goes from twelve to twenty-four hours. But the fertility mavens say that it's likely to wither away inside fifteen to sixteen hours. So it's vital to hit it at the proper time!
Now it is time to shift the focus from the Girl to the Man! If a pair has intercourse on regular basis, it's probable that the power of the sperms may lack the required force and the sperm density may also be less than it is necessary for the fertility level. Additionally, the rate of sperm flexibility might also be curbed. Again, if the sexual union isn't so frequent, there are probabilities the sperms may become off and old, making it lack its desired vitality.
According to the opinion of the fertility professionals, coitus should happen twice weekly for the best result. It is surprising that tricky the female ovum dies inside such a brief period, the male sperm survives and moves about from two to five days in the vaginal canal. Keeping this fact under consideration, it could be successful to have intercourse 2 days sooner than the date of ovulation, so the sperm gets lots of occasions to hit the egg. It's vital here to indicate that following all the above discussed tenets might not be enough for falling pregnant.
For further assistance, one may turn to holistic cures that helps find out the reason for an issue if there's any and then endorses a cure that's correct. These cures are of a good range that includes Chinese medicines to acupuncture, from exercise to beneficial herbs, from life changes to a healthy and balances diet. Not like the long standing, traditional cures which generally fail, the holistic cures nearly always give the specified results.

QUESTION:

Getting Pregnant After Iud
Problems With Iuds
What makes the intrauterine device (IUD) a convenient contraceptive? Aside from being highly effective when used properly, this device does not interrupt intercourse and has long-lasting contraceptive effects.
"For the woman who can use an IUD, the advantages are great because she does not have to worry about contraception each day. The effectiveness rate is high, with only about a five percent chance of pregnancy," according to the editors of Consumer Guide's aFamily Health & Medical Guide.a
But things can go wrong for several reasons. If the IUD is not inserted correctly, pregnancy can occur. And the bad part is that IUD users who become pregnant are likely to miscarry. Pregnancy among IUD users also increases the chances of infection, premature delivery and stillbirth.
To avoid this, the IUD comes with a small string which the wearer can use to make sure the device is in place. The string also helps the physician in removing the device. Some women can't tolerate the IUD and it may be expelled during menstruation. Although many women can feel this happening, others may not. This can create problems later.
"To reduce the already small risk of getting pregnant with an IUD, make sure that whoever inserts it has experience performing the procedure and check regularly to be sure the lUD's string 'tail' is dangling into the vaginal canal. Between 2 percent and 20 percent of lUDs are expelled in the first year, sometimes without any pain. Any time you can't locate the string or have prolonged cramping, heavy bleeding, pain or fever, you should consult your doctor immediately," warned Deborah Franklin in Health magazine.

QUESTION:
Has anyone had problems getting pregnant after IUD?
I had the Mirena IUD for a little over 3 years. I got it removed in October of last year and we have been trying, maybe too hard, to get pregnant - with No luck! Everyone said once you get it removed you can get pregnant so fast and easy, but yet I am not having ANY luck. Has anyone had problems getting pregnant AFTER you had the Mirena removed?-
ANSWER:
Well, I had the Mirena for 6 months and took it out because I just didn't like it. A lot of cramping. I then went on the nuva ring, which made me crazy. I conceived my daughter after the nuva ring. After I had my daughter I decided to try the Paragard, which doesn't have the hormones. I had it taken out December 4th 2009 and my husband and I are trying for number 3. Considering that my son was conceived the first time we had sex, and my daughter was conceived the first time I was off of birth control, I'm surprised its taking longer this time.

QUESTION:
Getting pregnant after iud removal and miscarriage?
I will be removing my Paraguard IUD next Friday and have read that many women miscarry if they get pregnant soon after removing the IUD. Have any of you heard this or experienced this?-
ANSWER:
I had an IUD and became pregnant within weeks of having it removed. My pregnancy ended at 21weeks because my son had a form of spinabifida that would have made it impossible to live out side my womb. wether this was from my iud or the lack of folic acid is debateable but i think both factors contributed to my sons condition. (anencephaly)Misscarrige is a risk you will take with getting pregnant at any time. I would suggest taking a multi vitamin and a folic acid supplement before removal and throughout pregnancy.
good luck

Video To Get Pregnant
Best Pregnancy Exercise Video
The best pregnancy exercise video consists of pregnancy-related yoga exercises, with a specific set of activities to be performed for each trimester. A woman's body changes throughout pregnancy, but few exercise programs take this into account.
Most women who are physically active prior to pregnancy, such as joggers or swimmers, are not able to maintain the same level of activity throughout pregnancy. It is simply not physically possible, not is it safe for the mother or the baby. However, yoga is a discipline can gain render benefits at any time, and is not high-impact or stressful like many aerobic exercises.
And for those women who are relatively inactive, yoga is the perfect transition, as they can also participate in it despite the fact that they are out-of-shape. To understanding why it is used in the best pregnancy video, you need to understand the historical importance of yoga.
Yoga began as a sub-discipline of Hinduism, but is a large part of Eastern religion in general, including Buddhism. In recent decades, yoga has become increasingly popular in Western societies, due to its mental and physical benefits.
It attempts to bridge the gap between mind and body, and does so in a way that is relaxing and therapeutic. Furthermore, it incorporates meditation techniques that allow persons access to uninterrupted time with their bodies. Thus, benefits often include reduced stress, increased mental awareness, and more flexibility overall.
The best pregnancy exercise video should contain a variety of stress-relieving activities, that can be performed for up to 30 minutes every day. Yoga is one of few programs that are safe for pregnant women to practice throughout their pregnancy, all the way to delivery.
In fact, the longer a women can continue with the program, the more benefits she may gain. For example, yoga exercises increase muscle strength and stamina, which are crucial for labor and delivery. In fact, yoga activities, as seen the the best pregnancy video, focus on the very muscles that are used for childbirth.
Consequently, women who do not practice yoga often report more negative effects during delivery, including pain and complications. In summary, it should come as no surprise that yoga is considered to be a discipline of infinite wisdom and patience, fine-tuned through the centuries to provide spiritual and physical benefits.
It can greatly increase a person sense of happiness and well-being. There is no reason why pregnant women should not be able to partake in these benefits, and have absolutely nothing to lose by giving it a try.

Does anyone use the Walk Away the Pounds video while pregnant?
I bought it today so I could walk indoors since it's starting to get hot outside. I thought it would be healthy for the baby and I and help me from gaining more then I need to. What do you think or how has it been working for you?-
ANSWER:
Walk Away the Pounds is great during pregnancy because it is all low impact. If you have passed your first trimester, talk to your doctor about what heart rates are appropriate as they may change for pregnancy. You might also find that as you get larger, you may have to limit or eliminate some of the kicks because you are a tad unbalanced.Also consider Denise Austin's Pregnancy video as an alternative and prevent boredom with the same routine.
Unless your doctor tells you otherwise, you can do those routines up until you give birth.

I've watched all of these videos on Youtube about pregnant teenagers in the Sims 3 and I used to do it all the time on Sims 2.

Please and thank you. (:

ANSWER:
Hey Sam, I am supposed to be studying now so this will be kind of rushed, but I found some links that may work for you.http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=388170 <<< this is a mod that isn't updated for late night I think, so if you have that it might not work/cause glitches or destruction. :p I didn't read through all of it, but I know it also adds same sex pregnancy so if you're not cool with that this isn't the download for you. Otherwise, read through it, see what its compatible with, read the most recent comments to see if the teen pregnancy is working well. You will need an account, takes five minutes though. Plus, modthesims will give you everything.
http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,15488.0.html <<< this link should lead you to another mod that enables teen pregnancy, but again you will need to sign up to view it/download.
I hope either of the two work for you!
If this is just for video making purposes, you can probably work around not having a mod, have your teen be the main feature/grow her up to a young adult or have a young adult sim that looks just like her/get her pregnant/video the morning sickness and the belly expanding/the hospital scene/use the teen version of her holding and interacting with the baby etc. That's worst case scenario, I'm sure the video will be good regardless.
Good luck!

ANSWER:
If she has milk, it will be a day or two, at most.Make her a box with lots of shredded newspaper in it, as a birthing box. Get her used to it now. The entrance should be level or only a few inches high and it should be big enough for her to stretch out in it.
Food doesn't matter much now, but make sure she gets plenty to drink. You don't know if she can handle milk, so only give her water, or that special milk they sell for cats.
Help her clean herself by stroking her with a soft cloth, wrung out in warm water, when you see she's trying to wash.
When the kittens are born, let her clean them up herself, unless they come very fast then you may need help clean a few, to get their mouths and noses clear so they can breathe. (It is not true cats rejects kittens that have been handled).
Move them to a smaller box with a warm towel in it (you can heat it in the dryer). Then put her in with them, when she's had the last one. You can help her clean herself up, again with the soft warm moist cloth. Don't be surprised if she spends the whole birthing time purring.
Put her food and litter tray close by the kitten box, but also be prepared to feed her in the kitchen, too, as she might need a break from them every now and then.
If you can guaranteed keep her indoors, let her start to wean the kitties, around 6 weeks, before getting her spayed. Spaying sometimes stops the milk. But if she's able to get out, you have to risk it, as she could easily get pregnant again while she's still suckling. When you take her, also take the kitties, so the vet can check them over for fleas, worms and general health.
Start looking for good homes for them as soon as they're born but don't let them go until they're 9 or 10 weeks, as they need to learn how to be cats from their mom . It might be good though to let her keep one, as they'll be great company for each other.
Good luck.
Oh keep the box in your room so you can hear if she starts birthing in the night.

My period has always been irregular (REALLY irregular), so I wasn't too concerned when over a month passed and I still hadn't had it. Some teasing from my mom prompted me to take a "First Response HPT" and 3 positive tests later, I finally started to believe I was really preggo (my husband and I tried for a year for our daughter, not terribly long, I know, but just crazy to think that it could come so easy).So I go to my family practice to have the pregnancy confirmed and on my request had a Quant HCG drawn to approximate the age of the pregnancy (so that I would have better idea of when to schedule my first OB appt.).
This morning the nurse calls back with a HCG level of 47 and says that makes me "one week pregnant." As a nurse myself, I just can't wrap my head around this. I tried to clarify by asking, "you mean 1 week since implantation, or....??" and she rambles off some numbers that I KNOW she's reading from a chart, and says "So you're approximately 1 week pregnant."
Knowing I wasn't going to get any further with her, I get online and see that all of the HCG charts approximate the pregnancy anywhere between 3 - 5 weeks pregnant.
I did make an OB appointment, but in the meantime I was wondering if anyone had any insight on this situation. My nursing judgement tells me to approximate the pregnancy at 3-5 weeks, but I would like a second opinion if you have one!

ANSWER:
There's no such way to even know if you're only ONE week pregnant. I'm sorry but I have no idea what she means. I know you're a nurse but maybe you should call you're doctor and see what the lady meant.

QUESTION:
for those of you who answered my question this morning...?
this is what i posed this morning...(I know there is nothing any of you can do, but I am just looking for some support & encouragement.
Yesterday I went to my regular OB appointment, & she said she wants me back today for an ultrasound because she thinks I look small for how far along I am. This is making me very sad, & worried because now I feel like there is something wrong with my baby. My husband says he doesn't think I look small, but we have nothing to compare it to, this is our first baby, I could compare myself to my sister when she was pregnant, but she was HUGE because her son weighed almost 10 lbs.I have this picture of my baby bump at 31 weeks
http://www.i-am-pregnant.com/vippics/47/…Do I really look that small?
I am so worried about my baby, & ever since yesterday, I feel like all I am going to hear today at the ultrasound is bad news...)
good news! the doc said my baby is actually bigger than he's supposed to be. i guess he's supposed to be weighing around 4.5 lbs & she said he weighs 5 lbs 4 ounces, & my goodness he has the chubbiest cheeks i've ever seen! it's such a relief to know he's okay! & the doctor said he's got hair! lol!

I am worried about getting pregnant at my age and having a downs syndrome baby or having complications. Can anyone tell me about there experinces of having a child later in life. Were your fears founded? How long did it take you to conceive if you had a tubal reversal?-
ANSWER:
The chances of having a child with DS at 47 is 1/13. If your child was born with DS it isn't a horrible thing. I was 22 and had a child with down syndrome. I wouldn't change my child for anything. Baby dust to you

QUESTION:
at what age can you get pregnant??
ummm my friends dad is 47 and his mom is 46...can she still get prgnant and if yes how old do they have to be until she can be pregnant and he can't produce sprem.. i'm really interested because they want to have a baby one last time but i don't think they can-
ANSWER:
Wow! What a great question!In a perfect world:
A woman can get pregnant until she no longer gets her period and Men can produce sperm well into their 70's or even 80's.
So yes, your friend's parents can still have another baby provided her mom still gets her period.
Hope that helps!

QUESTION:
Can anyone please help me???
I am fairly worried about my grandfather. My sister and I was sitting at the bar eating breakfast when my mother got off the phone. She told my sister and I the whole story.The shortened version of the story is:
My grandfather is 76 and he just recently had sex with a 29 year old woman. He got her pregnant. This is a 47 year age difference. His divorced wife (mother of my mother) told my mother that he had gone to a class with his girlfriend to find out some ways to have sex while you are pregnant.
Do you that my grandfather is too old for sex?
Do you think its okay for my grandfather to have sex at this age, but with a women his age???Please help me!!!
