Is frequent urination or the urge to urinate a sign of weight loss or pregnancy?
This is one sign of pregnancy - do you have any other symptoms? Missed period? Sore breasts? If you are trying to lose weight, you may find you are drinking more water to try and fill up your hungry stomach. This would of course cause you to pee more often! * no soreness in the breasts, not sure about a missed period yet and I just began working out 6 days ago ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frequent urination is one of the most common discomforts during pregnancy. Lots of pressure on the bladder! http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/pregnancy/prenatalhealth/237.html Y-THINK-Y

What affect can drinking alcohol have on a unborn baby in the 3 trimester?
THERE IS DEFINATE RESEARCH AND DATA that shows that drinking during pregnancy puts at risk of having a baby born with F.A.S. (fetal alcohol syndrome). Medium to heavy drinking during a pregnancy can cause damage to a growing fetus; physical deformities: smaller heads, smaller eyes that seemed "webbed" (resembles a child's eyes that has Down syndrome), slower growth and development, thin flat upper lip (no crease), and ALSO things you can't see: possible heart damage, emotional problems; impulse control problems, learning problems, most have some degree of mental retardation....I worked with a young boy with FASand it wasn't easy. He was loveable and pretty smart, but his problems were MANY. AND if the drinking is not severe enough to cause FAS, the baby can be born with a milder case called F.A.E. These children are born without the physical deformities, however they also have problems that are not immediately evident: learning problems and other emotional problems.....IT REALLY ISN'T A GOOD THING TO DRINK ALCOHOL WHILE PREGNANT!! <<>>peaunuts are yucky and you are gay

What exactly is normal spotting during your first trimester Like color and amount wise?
Spotting is a very light flow. It is something that may barely, or not even, fill a pantyliner throughout the course of the day (or couple of days for that matter). Spotting doesn't really include the loss of any tissue (shedding of the lining of the uterus). Usually it is a very light pink color, but it could also be bright red (new oxygenated blood) or more brown (old, deoxygenated blood).
During pregnancy, any bleeding is referred to as vaginal bleeding. It has nothing to do with a period as pregnancy and periods cannot co-exist. Vaginal bleeding is caused by something other than your period and in this case it sounds more like implantation bleeding (if it is early in the pregnancy).
However, any vaginal bleeding should be reported to your doctor as well as any detail you can provide regarding flow, color, any odors, frequency, and any other concurrent symptoms. Your doctor will want to evaluate it to determine a cause (though it is often difficult to determine an exact cause) and be sure that it is not something serious; although it is usually a very normal occurrence and means no harm.
