Is cramping in your left sode normal in early pregnancy?
Cramps are normal during pregnancy no matter where they are in the stomach, unless they are sharp or painful. You should tell you're doctor about these immediately just to be on the safe side.
Left side cramps are not necessarily a sign of pregnancy but can occur during pregnancy. Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include missed period, tender/swollen breasts, change in color of the breasts, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, increased sense of smell, and weight gain.

How should a belly look at three weeks pregnant?
At three weeks pregnant most women aren't even aware that they are pregnant. Your belly wont look any different at all. Women who are extremely petite and small built might start to show as early as 7-10 weeks but that is just if she lifts her shirt up and looks in front of the mirror. Most likely, other people will not notice her pregnancy until much later.
Is cramping and bleeding during the sixth week normal?
It depends on how heavy the bleeding is. Its normal to sometimes spot during pregnancey. Cramps, all the time. If bleeding is heavy its a possible miscarraige you should see docter immediately.
yes it's absolutely normal, u could even bleed for more than that, but if u bleed too much n u feel that u have to use more pads that u usually do when u have a period, u have to contact ur doctor as soon as possible.
How far along do you have to be in your pregnancy so you don't have a miscarriage?
It can happen from conception to the very end so to speak. But later on it's a stillbirth.
Is mild cramping normal in the first trimester of pregnancy?
Yes, for some women it can be.
I talked to a GYN nurse this morning and asked that same question. She said, yes, it is possible and not uncommon.
I spoke to my doctor regarding my initial question about cramping. I told him that I was still experiencing this minor cramping and he took me off work calling it a threatened miscarriage spell at this time. I would suggest noting where the cramps are felt,when,and for how long as in days. This will be a good indication for your docotor to decide what is best for you. In my case I am now taking progestrine suppositories to calm my uterus down. I am also off work for 6 weeks. I did also find out that I was pregnant with twins and one is not developing. In my opinion I believe that is the source for my cramping.
Yes, your uterus is expanding and stretching to make room for baby. I had horrible cramps with my pregnancy... but still i would seek a doctors opinion if you are pregnant and having bad cramps to be on the safe side.
Could you be pregnant if you've had two missed periods but pregnancy tests are negative?
I started the pill this summer and had very light periods the first 2-3 months and was not sexually active, so I'm pretty sure it's just the pill. I think, however, it depend some on what kind of pill you are taking. (There are only 2 days a month that I have absolutely no hormones from the pill.) !
What causes bad leg cramps during pregnancy and how do you prevent them?
I had really bad leg cramps too, I have found that increasing my intake of calcium made the biggest difference. I am not much into vitamins, they are not too good for you, but increasing eating foods high in calcium shouled help a bunch. That will take a while to kick in, in the mean time, try resting with your legs propped up on a mountain of pillows. Rubbing the legs can help as well. If it is one area that is really bothering you a hot pack may help. If you are having any caffeine at all, this will make the most minor lef cramp 100 times more intense, I am speaking from experience. Caffiene should be iliminated as is sicks the calcium our of yoru bones, the worst culprit is pop, slurpies, and coffee. Pray for wisdom, and God will shown you what you can do in your diet to make the needed changes, your body is telling you to change something.
Do you get period like cramps in early pregnancy?
Yes , it is possible to have period like crams in the beginning of a pregancy...with all the hormonal and body changes it is likely that you will adjust slowly. I had light period cramps and a back ache for the first two months of my pregnancy...right around the time I would typically have my period.
yes, from what I've read in many different areas. I took a pregnancy test about a week and a half after possible conception and it came out negative, dispite the fact that I had severe bloating, booby pains, queezyness and odd cramps that I've never had w/ my period. well, I'm still having some of those signs (though the severe bloating's gone down, thank you God), it's been over a week since the test and still no period. I'm thinking that if I am pregnant, that it was probably too early for testing, who knows. I'll try and test in another couple days if there's still no period. wish me luck.
I have heard that you can. I had period pains last week but didn't come on it's so hard because I have irregular periods so I wouldn't know if I'm late or not but they only go up to 35 days that's all so it isn't that bad. I'm waiting 4 more days then I find out and it all make sense. This hasn't ever happened to me before.
Can you have a miscarriage after 4 months?
Although the chance of miscarriage goes down significantly after you see the heartbeat and reach the 12 week point, there is always a chance that something may happen. Any fetal demise under 20-22 weeks is considered a miscarriage. If you are feeling crampy or bleeding call your doctor with any questions, that is what they are there for.
Hello.
Risk of a miscarriage decreases greatly once a woman has reached three months into her pregnancy.
How long does early pregnancy cramping last?
Well no one can really give you a definite answer on that because i experienced cramping during my entire pregnancy on and off and my son is now 2 years old and very healthy.... As long as your cramping isn't followed with any bleeding then you should be fine everybody is different. Just stay prayed up and everything will be fine....
Is mild cramping an early sign of pregnancy?
Period like cramps are a sign of early pregnancy and I myself experienced these, but unfortunately they are also a sign of your oncoming period. This can prove to be a very unhelpful sign of pregnancy lol.
Is anal cramping during early pregnancy normal?
you body is going through a lot a this time, so if there no bleeding or bad cramping you ok
i had that with my son i was 5months or more cause he constantly move around in my stomach
I'm 10 weeks pregnant today and I've been spotting brown for about a week. It also happened a week prior to me finding out I was pregnant. I started to get scared because the first time it happen, was the morning after i had intercorse with my husband. I called my doctor right away. He told me it was normal. so I felt better but then it kept on happening and i panic. I called him again and he told me to take it easy and it be wise to be on bed rest until we figure out what was going on. He thought it might be the beginning of a miscarrige. But the thing with spotting is that there's no sure way to tell if it's normal or not. You just have to wait it out and see if is a miscarrige it will happen no matter what you do to try to avoid it. I had a sonogram at the doctor and he wasn't able to find the baby's heart beat and of course i got scared. He sent me to the hospital to get another sonogram, thank God they found the heart beat. I've noticed that being off my feet has really helped minimizing the spotting. Now the spooting is almost gone. I pray to God my baby will be okay. Oh! about the tender breasts, mine were really sore at the beginning and then the soreness was gone at about seven weeks gestation.
AnswerI been pregnant 2x. I have a healthy 7 year old boy and one miscarriage. I also believed I am pregnant now primaryly because I been spotting today a week before my period is due. I know from expirience, that it is normal to have implantation bleeding. YOu should not worry about spotting as long as it is no with heavy cramping or back pain, or legs and arm pain it usually indicate trouble. It is very common to spot after intercourse. The reason for this is that your cervix and vagina are like a sac full of blood and blood vessel that with the slitest touch can and will release small drop of blood. THis blood is usually no enough to just flow down so it usually comes down with some vaginal discharge and when the blood is all so that is why is brown. However, if the bleeding follows with bright blood or clotting blood. It becomes heavy, like it wets your underwears and your clothes. YOu should go to the emergency room right away. Call your Doctor on your way there. I had a miscarryge. I knew something was wrong. It felt like someone kicked me in the stomach, but through the flesh. It feels like I was being tore inside. It is very preciese. It is no something that you can sleep through, chill through. I knew I needed a doctor right away.Answer
I am in my eighth week right now and I noticed a fairly dramatic change (in about a day) in the way my breasts felt. Before they felt like an electric current was running through them and even the slightest touch was excruciatingly SORE. I woke up "next day" with near to no pain or soreness, and have been like this ever since (only an occasional feeling of warmth there). Doctor's office says not to worry about it as everything had looked real good at my check-up the prev week. So maybe we are not freaks and the breasts do "Calm Down" a bit around week 8, even though the books say not to expect that till about the end of first trimester. Actually, we have a Physiology textbook here and there's a graph showing different hormones in preg. hCG does this big spike at the beg, peaking at about Week 10, then drops equally dramatically. My doctor's office said I passed "the big surge" now (I guess the slope is less near the top of the peak), plus your body really begins to adjust to these new levels of things. Anyhow, for me I have no cramping and still suffer greatly from THIRST, which is the thing I've noticed most so far. I'm hoping that these signs mean the quieter breasts are okay, not the end of the world. Do you still have any other pregnancy signs? Do you have an ultrasound appointment yet? Try to keep busy and GOOD LUCK. I think you and I both need to remember that nature is taking its course and - as long as we are looking after ourselves and following doctor's orders - there is really little else we can do.
Anyway, I hope it helps to know someone else out here has the same "symptom"!
You could have a serious medical condition or an infection. No one can diagnose your problem online -- even based on the symptoms you provided. You should contact a medical professional/gynecologist for answers to your specific questions and to get an in-person evaluation and any necessary tests or medications.
How do you get rid of enlarged circumvallate papillae?
I just noticed in the last 3 days and first I thought it was some kind of HPV but then a count them they are 8 and now I know they are the circumvallate papillae that I have not seen before. I can correlate that I started using Listerine daily for the last two weeks. I will supend it as I am certain it is the cause. Before I didnt use Listerine and I didnt know I had them. Check what you have change recently that can correlate to the time where you start noticing them. Maybe some medicated throught candies, mouth sprays.
another answer to the question, a cause I just read about, after searching the web for the past few hours about my enlarged circumvallate papillae is smoking. That explains it for me.
READ: i read that probiotics are good to use so i went to walmart an i bought the brand name sustenex daily probiotics. after two days of use i already can tell it has helped. i had the bumps swell on the back of my tongue an i thought i had some type cancer, i done research to find it isn't that. i really think it is from the digestive system. i would get a feeling of being short breath, and it seem like my throat was closing up and when i looked in the mirror at my throat i could see alot of swelling bumps in the back of throat and down my throat. i would wake up with bad breath and mucos build up, i didn't this morning an i am happy. anyone try this an if it helps you please pass the information on so we can beat this horrible beast.
Should you go to the hospital if you are 38 weeks pregnant and feel menstrual cramps?
Call your obstetrician's office first, unless they provided other parameters in advance. They will likely want to know what the timing is between cramps and they will advise you about when to head to the hospital.
Labor doesn't always start with the water breaking. For me, labor lasted only 6 hours and the doctor had to break the water both times.
How do you apply poolcrete before measuring for a vinyl liner?
Enough about making your own poolcrete, now lets get down to business...
Mix your poolcrete in a gas powered masonry type mixture in the same method as discussed previously. Again, if you wish, you may add a few squirts of dishwashing liquid to the water content before adding the poolcrete. I would like to note that the use of the dishwashing liquid is a good practice for unskilled workers. Most professionals do not like to use it. Professional pool builders usually all have their own preferred method of appling the crete but what I am going to instruct you on here is the way we do it after 30 years of the practice. For this example I am going to set you up on a common 16 x 32 pool with 2' radius corners and a hopper depth of 8' that is a new construction. Most of the time we like to sugar coat the bottom of our pools with a couple of inches of crusher run from the stone company. This helps with having a neater workspace in the pool and also makes it easier to move to poolcrete around with a wheelbarrow. I am assuming that you have already installed any string lines that you will need on transitions that indicate where the finished surface should be. You should set up your mixer right at the edge of the pool wall in the shallow end and locate the poolcrete close to the mixer. We have fashioned a device out of 3/4" PVC pipe and a ball valve that connects to a common garden hose that hangs over and down into the mixer a few inches. This makes adding the water to the mixer more accurate and alot easier. You can make a 4' long shute from some scrape plywood and lumber screwed to the sides that can be wire tied to the bottom frame on the mixer. When you dump the poolcrete out of the mixer it will go down the shute and into a wheelbarrow. I have one worker that mixes the poolcrete and then gets into the pool and pushes the mix to where it is needed. Usually it is only me that is actually troweling the mix but sometimes I have one other troweling. As we build a high volume of pools, when I do the excavation I try and get it dug as fast as possible so the banks on the slope are usually over dug a bit. It is much faster to dig with a backhoe than with a pick. We always start on the banks at the transition from the shallow end and work the banks around the pool. When we are overdug (more than 2" of mix will have to be applied to the banks) we start with a roughin coat that will bring our mix to within a half inch or so of what the finish should be. The mixture for this should be fairly wet other than in places where gouges where taken out for rock or other things. If you have areas where it will take alot of poolcrete to fill in then go ahead and dump some mix into theses areas first and just bring them up a little at a time while you work on other areas. This roughin coat should be left "rough" so that the crete doesn't want to slide off the banks when you run the finish coat. Do not try to make this coat look good. The banks are what I think are the easiest to trowel but it is always the most time consuming part. Another good reason to use to roughin method is if you will not be able to complete the job that day for some reason like the possiblility of rain then you can go ahead and work on this because the banks a easy to cover with plastic. Poolcrete can be shaved of up till a couple of days later if necessary to get rid of a high spot. When you have the banks roughed in to maybe a half inch or so then you can run a finish coat. I like to run my finish on the wet side because it is only a half inch or so and it finishes better. When you are running any finished surface make your strokes as long as possible in a comfortable stance. Keep your body lose and just go with the flow and let your mind feel the trowel. While this is very much eye to hand coordination, you must remain in sync with the trowel and the material and let your senses take over. Troweling poolcrete is very similar to icing a cake. It is like cool whip mixed with peanut butter. What you are looking to acheve is a uniform surface. It is not supposed to be as slick as glass and you will have over troweled the material before you know it. Do not keep going over and over the mix as you would with conventional concrete. It is not concrete. You need only to slightly tilt the pool trowel maybe 1/16" of an inch to stroke in any direction. Make your pass good with the intention that the next pass will take out any trowel marks in the crete. If the first pass looks good then leave it alone or you may screw it up. The poolcrete should resemble gray asphalt and have a slight texture. It is common to work air into the mix during placement and this will cause bubbles to lump up on the surface. This is not that big of a deal so if you have this to happen just turn the trowel on edge and gouge the place to release the pocket of air. If you have to join wet poolcrete to a drier area then you can take a spray bottle filled with water and some dishwashing liquid and spray the drier edge first. This will help to blend the two areas together. The best method of appling poolcrete to the banks is to roll the wheelbarrow to the needed area and sling it on the banks with a square point shovel. Other areas can be dumped out and troweled down on spot. After we finish the banks then we usually bring the slope down and finish the bottom of the hopper. We leave a strip of the slope about 3' wide to come back up as we trowel this backward till we are back to the top (not so easy). At this point in time you are almost home free! Continue to trowel in the remaining shallow end and work toward the step as this is where you will exit.
I sincerly hope that this information will help some crazy sole that just really wants to do this for themself. I would also like to make a few other personal statements about this subject. I have built swimming pools for around thirty years and during this time I have often tried to train people to do this. I have only had one person that was ever able to trowel this material that met my approval and thank goodness this person is my wife and partner. If you do this and get results that please you then be satisfied... because most people just cant do it.

Is it normal to have stretching during 7 weeks?
Yes it is normal it might mean that your baby will be a fast grower.
Hello, Cervical Mucus (CM) is not a indication of early pregnancy. CM becomes more frequent & increases in quantity if pregnancy occurs but this will not be noticeable until 1-2 months into pregnancy. Mild cramping may be a indication of early pregnancy but it sounds like your period is due soon, so this is most likely why you're cramping. However if your period does not arrive then see your Doctor for a pregnancy blood test.
Yes I think your pregnant because you are sometimes are on for 2-3 days early from when you were due on and you are showing some of the top 10 early pregnancy signs.
I suggest you go to your gp to be certain or get a decent pregnancy test.
Well your period is not always on time, sometimes you can be quite late but no, there is nothing wrong its natural. Unless you have been on the tablets that stop your period and you overdose by 4weeks like i did. Not fun. Sometimes you can get very pianful stomach cramps but next time your period comes it will not be as painful. If it is then well......ask your doctor! Jjust take a lot of parcitamal!!
