Showing During Pregnancy

It really depends, some people get pregnant within the first month of trying and others take years.

It is known that one man was able to, naturally, i.e. the good old-fashioned way, successfully impregnate his wife, on three occasions, resulting in three successful births, each from a single attempt. For some, "there is no try, only do". For others, it's "if at first you don't succeed ..."

This could happen for a variety of reasons. It could be hormonal issues, an infection, chemically induced (such as steroids), or even cancer. It is definitely something that you need to discuss with your doctor.

If this is your 1st pregnancy some women don't show until their 4th month. But if you are overweight then it could be some time before actually noticing you are pregnant. If this is not your 1st you can show anywhere from 8 weeks & up. I am 52kg and currently 10 weeks pregnant and showing...every pregnancy and person is different. This is my first pregnancy and I am a size 8 and currently 2 and half months pregnant and showing. I was 2 in half months pregnant with my first when I started to show. I have a slim body so I started to show earlier when I noticed that I had a little bump. I haven't gained as much that I 'm suppose to Now I'm 15 weeks pregnant and my belly is getting a little big and starting to look round.

Vomiting would be one sign in the first trimester and you dont always have to miss your period you could be on your period and still be pregnant. Look for the vomiting in you and the people that live with you because it can rub of on to the people you live with expecillay if your in your teens trust me on this one

You don't. Unless your friends are nice enough to smoke you out.

It shouldn't THC (the psychoactive chemical in marijuana) works by mimicking neurotransmitters in your brain. It is broken down into metabolites and remains in the blood for days to weeks, depending how often marijuana is used. Home pregnancy tests test for human chorionic gonadotropin, which is a hormone released once implantation of the egg occurs. I see no reason as to why THC metabolites would affect a pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests have also been known to give false positives too, so taking two is always a good idea.

Yes, the dental light curing process itself is safe during pregnancy.

However there are other considerations that should be discussed with the dentist:

1. If an anesthetic will be required for the procedure than you will need to find out which one is going to be used and if that is safe for pregnancy (not all dental light curing procedures will require anesthetic)

2. How far along in your pregnancy you are, as well as your own personal tolerance for mouth stimulation. Some women who are pregnant are simply very sensitive in the mouth or may be prone to vomiting or nausea triggered by a variety of smells or tastes (especially those you don't encounter on a daily basis). Some women simply cannot handle any dental procedure at all during pregnancy.

3. Be sure to ask about any other variables that may be involved, types of antibacterial washes that may be used, mouth rinses (especially those which require prescriptions) that may be recommended, etc, and their possible side effects.

Hello - This is a slightly difficult question to answer. Some women "sense" they are pregnant a week after conception. But usually a woman cant honestly consider pregnancy until she begins experiening pregnancy symptoms. Pregnancy symptoms usually occur once the Embryo has implanted in the womans Uterus and has began by releasing HCG into the blood and later on (when you can do a pregnancy test) the HCG will be spilled into the womans urine. The Embryo usually implants 8-12 days after having unprotected intercourse. This is also the same time a woman may experience implantation bleeding. But not every pregnant woman will experience implantation bleeding. Once you begin experiencing pregnancy symptoms you can do a pregnancy test as soon as you miss your period. If you test two - three weeks after having intercourse the test will probably be inaccurate and there wont be enough HCG in your urine to give a accurate result. Because of this, wait until your period is late and do a test. If test is positive, you must see your doctor for confirmation. I hope I have helped you some. If I have then please recommend me. Good luck. :-)

your baby is stilldeveloping 4-6 months, you will start to feel some pain and weird stuff. you will need more rest. eat healthy and organic stuff. Remember to eat something after you have your delivery. You need food because you need to breast feed. Don't drink cold stuff. It could make your baby weaker ; also your own health.

It depends on your size and body frame. Every woman is different. Generally you will notice something around month 4. It varies from person to person. It depends on your body structure and how fast the baby is growing. I have know people to show at 5 months and some didn't show until 8 months. So it is all dependent on how skinny you are and how big the baby is. Hi, It really depends on your body frame. Second pregnancies usually show more earlier than the first pregnancy and first pregnancies sometimes don't show until 5/6 months into the pregnancy. Good luck and take care.
You start showing when you are 5 or 6 months pregnant.

Remember, each cycle is DIFFERENT. Trust me on this. Symptoms can change month to month so don't be concerned.

Mammograms should be scheduled when a woman's breasts are least likely to be tender. One week after the menstrual period is usually best.

Bloating during pregnancy is VERY normal. I am 16 weeks pregnant now and some days I still have extreme bloating. Even when I was only 6 or 7 weeks pregnant, I looked much more than that because I was so bloated. It does get better though the further along you get.

You may not experience any pregnancy symptoms this early. However some women do experience symptoms as soon as 3 days after conception so it is possible. Usually you would experience tiredness, urinating more often, tender breasts or nipples, changes in aerola or eating pattern changes and tummy cramping. These can also be approaching period symptoms.

Pregnant
You are pregnant if a pink/purple line appears in the large oval test window (T). Not pregnant
You are not pregnant if no pink/purple line appears in the large oval test window.

Yea, for the first couple of months you can. But what is the point of that, you're not even showing at this time.

When you do start to show, sorry, there's no sucking in to hide that sucker. You should be proud of your pregnant belly. If you're worried that other folks will think you're just fat, if you wear the right maternity clothes, it will be obvious that that's a pregnant belly you're carrying around. Wearing the right clothing, that fits you well, will improve your self-confidence and make you feel better about the weight.

You can definitely try to, but once the baby starts showing, usually around the 4th-5th month, it won't make much of a difference. You'll be able to feel the muscles clench and everything, but your stomach won't suck in much at all.

No, the baby is in the way. A pregnant stomach is hard.

Pregnancy in a female dog lasts nine weeks.

We determine the birthing date from the date of the first mating.

Some bitches will whelp (deliver their puppies) anywhere from day 59 to day 63.

As the owner, you will make no changes to her diet for the first 5 weeks.

Often, in the 3rd week after mating, she will go off her food for about 10 days.

You will notice that her vulva - the area around her vagina, did not return to the normal small size it was before mating, but looks rather enlarged.

There is normally no discharge during a pregnancy.

If you do see a discharge, then take her to the Veterinarian.

She may have an infection, or be losing the litter, or have developed a case of Pyometra, which, if left untreated, can kill her.

She needs a good exercise program, which involves a daily run to make sure all her muscles, including her uterine muscles, are in top condition.

She also needs a very high quality diet.

This is not the time to scrimp on her feeding formula.

Mother Nature tries to insure the survival of the species, so if the diet is lacking in any ingredient ,calcium or zinc for example, the developing puppies ( whelps) will take from the mother's body what they need to grow healthy, and therefore her body will become depleted.

DO NOT ADD ANY VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS IN THE FIRST MONTH OF PREGNANCY.

BIRTH DEFECTS WILL DEVELOP FROM TOO MUCH VITAMINS A & D.

DO NOT GIVE ANY MEDICINE NOW EITHER WITHOUT THE EXPRESS ORDER OF THE VETERINARIAN.

At week 5, her nipples will become deep pink in colour, and you may notice that she is thicker around the waist and broader around the rib cage.

Now you should increase her feeding by 25%.

Give her a daily Vitamin supplement from your Veterinarian

At week 6, increase her feeding again by 25% and divide her feedings into 2 meals a day.

You will notice that she is sleeping a little more now.

At week 7, increase her meal amount again by 25%.

Begin making preparations for the arrival of the puppies.

Build a whelping box for her and put it in a quiet room where she will be undisturbed by other pets and people and in an area that is easy to keep warm.

If you are putting the whelping box in a basement, then buy heavy weight plastic drop cloths, to hang 'walls' from the ceiling or beams to keep the heat inside the whelping box area.

Decide how you will heat the area where the new puppies will be.

It needs to be about 85 degrees until they are 3 weeks old.

A baseboard heater will do the job, as long as the dog cannot get near the electical cord or get burned by the heater.

You'll need to have it out of reach.

You will need reams of newspapers for the puppy box.

At week 8, increase the feed again by 25%. She is now eating double her normal amount.

Begin feeding her 3 times a day now and make the exercise time shorter, but more frequent.

Walking will be very tiring for her and she is very uncomfortable through the last week of the pregnancy.

Begin taking her temperature rectally twice a day.

The normal dog temperature is about 100.3F - 101.3F.

It will normally drop to about 98. degrees F 8 - 24 hours before the onset of labour and she will refuse to eat or drink anything.

NEVER EXPECT YOUR DOG TO DELIVER A LITTER BY HERSELF.

Although animal whelping is a 'natural event' this does not mean that the animal does not get into serious trouble if left unattended.

Mother and puppies frequently die because the owner thoughtlessly left her alone during this crucial time.

You may have gained a couple of pounds at the begining but when you are about five to seven months along is when you really put on the pounds because that is when the baby starts to put on its weight adn it needs as much food as possible to be able to grow so this is the time to start puting coco butter on your stomach to keep the stretch marks away

It is possible but not very likely. Implantation bleeding would occur after ovulation, which is more than a week after most periods end. For implantation bleeding to happen, you would have had to ovulate first, and afterwards it would have to be around a week before you see any spotting.

If your periods are irregular then it is still possible, since you could have ovulated during the last days of your period. However, if you have some extra stuff like brown discharge coming out this soon after your period has ended, it's probably old blood and isn't much to worry about.

As with everything, this depends on the person. Some women report their stomachs getting firmer toward the end of their first trimester. Most common seems to be stomach hardening at about 18-28 weeks. Other women say their tummy did not get firm until after 30 weeks.

I'm not exactly sure. It could be because your tummy muscles are stretching and if your only a few weeks into your pregnancy, it probably adjusts back to its normal size. But I'm not sure about this.

All women are different. Not showing at 5 months can be normal. If you are going to the doctor for regular check ups, everything is fine. If you aren't getting regular care, you need to start now. But not showing this early, is common. No need to worry, but if you have other questions contact a doctor.

Everyone's different. Some women look like they're about to explode at 5 months, while others don't even look pregnant. maybe your baby is small. As long as you go to the doctor and the doctor says that the baby is healthy then it's fine. nothing to worry about.

I had my first baby at 40 and did not show until about 6 months. Quite likely your tummy muscles are pretty strong. My son was 9 lbs. I definitely showed in the last trimester.

No part of a girls stomach gets hard while she is pregnant. Except if she eats too big a meal. The stomach really isn't part of the pregnancy except to get nutrients to the baby from the food the mom eats.

That organ that feels so hard at times, that is holding a baby, placenta and a sac of fluid around the baby is the uterus. The pre pregnancy uterus is about the size of a closed fist shaped like an upside down pear. The narrow part is the cervix which sits at the top of the vagina. After the 3rd month of pregnancy the top of the uterus has grown so you can feel the top of it at about the level of the pubic bone. By 20 weeks the top is about to your belly button. Measuring the change every month is how your doctor monitors the babies growth. Most of the time the uterus is firm like a a kids rubber ball. At other times it will contract and feel very hard like a watermelon. Those contractions are usually just practice contractions but if they start coming in a regular pattern and have enough strength that you have to stop whatever you are doing until it passes, call your doctor or follow whatever instructions he has given you to follow.
