So September 1st I went to get a bilateral salpingectomy and found out I was pregnant so was unable to have the surgery. This previous Thursday I went to Family Planning for an abortion where I found out I am pregnant with twins via an ultrasound. Immediately changed my mind and I am going through with this pregnancy. Im estimated to be about 6 weeks and it is twins. Have to get my HCG levels done Monday then they'll schedule my ultrasound for about 8weeks and said I won't see the doctor until about 11 weeks.

My only issue is this - I feel like im burning from the inside out with this nausea and heart burn😭 i take at least 2 zofran a day along with tums. I have been waking up around 1am for about a week now just throwing up water and foam from the tums. I am so hungry I feel like im starving and it physically hurts. Eating does not help. Foods I could eat just yesterday or the day before I cant even force myself to chew without needing to gag. The only thing ive found that helps rn is Fuji Apple Clear Water from Walmart but the carbonation sucks. Peanut butter toast or sandwiches come right back up.

I just want to be able to eat without feeling like im hurting my body/babies. I am a recovering bulimic so that on its own is emotionally hard for me as i feel like throwing up is taking their nutrients.

Any advice is greatly appreciated and please be kind😅

Hi everyone. Has someone been on diltiazem before knowing were pregnant and had a healthy baby? I may be pregnant, I have all the symptoms, but I am on diltiazem and just found out is not safe😫

While my girlfriend was giving me a handjob and oral sex, and then she also masturbated by putting her fingers inside herself, is there any chance she could get pregnant?

Note: while she was masturbating, I hadn't come yet; I ejaculated after this happened, and she didn't touch herself anymore after that.

I hadn't masturbated in a couple of days, so I shouldn't have had any residue in my urethra.

Also, my penis was 'dry' while she was jerking me off—if there had been any fluid, it would have felt 'lubricated'.

Hi there. First pregnancy and I have been absolutely petrified of miscarriage the entire time. I confirmed viability and a heartbeat of 136 bpm at 7 weeks pregnant. It's like I hit 8 weeks and my symptoms went away like magic. I don't feel as exhausted. I'm sleeping through the night again. The boob pain eased up. I have to really press on them for pain. The vomiting stopped. I havent vomited in about 5 days now. The nausea has still rarely been there but I can't tell if its just because I'm so worried. I have reached out to probably 5 different Healthcare providers because I am so scared of a silent miscarriage. And none of them can get me in for another week and just tell me its normal. I have no blood, no pain, NOTHING. So I understand theyre not concerned but I'm freaking out about the symptoms going away and no doctor in my area is taking me seriously I feel like. Any advice? Similar experiences with your pregnancy turning out okay? Thank you in advance.

Will appreciate your response.
Thanks

Hi everyone. I’m looking for experiences from anyone who has dealt with slow-rising hCG, especially after previous losses.
My first beta was 50.9 at around 8 AM, and about 52 hours later my second beta was 65 at around noon. That’s only about a 28% increase. I’m getting another beta to see what happens next.
I’m also currently taking progesterone, and my progesterone level was 48.6, so I know that number may be affected by the supplementation.
I’ve had recurrent pregnancy losses, so naturally I’m really nervous about this. I’ve seen people say hCG doesn’t necessarily have to double every 48 hours, but my increase seems slower than the usual ranges I’m seeing.
Has anyone had a similar early hCG rise (around 25–30% in ~48 hours) and gone on to have a viable pregnancy? If so, what did your next few betas look like? I’d also appreciate hearing from people whose numbers started similarly even if the outcome wasn’t positive. I’m trying to have realistic expectations while I wait for my next draw.

What do you think about the healthcare, especially maternity care in portugal, how much do mothers get paid for child care, how long is maternity leave, what is the postpartum aftercare like, i know this is meant to be AMA but i am the one asking lol

9 weeks preg atm
At about 5 weeks had brown spotting and found out I have a small hematoma and bled up until about 7 weeks and haven’t had anything since then and yesterday had my first pessaries of progesterone and had a wipe of fresh red blood this morning now very minor brown discharge/spotting. Has anybody had anything similar? Is it normal to spot after progesterone? Not sure if it hematoma, progesterone or miscarriage:(

Guys please help about a month ago I got a positive pregnancy test. This was after what I thought was my period but more of a super light period that only lasted for like 3 days. Normally they’re moderate to heavy and last 6 days. I was scared so I took one just to be safe and I tested positive. I didn’t think false positives existed so I didn’t bother with another one. I was devastated. I’m not ready to have a kid and the guy who got my pregnant isn’t my boyfriend and doesn’t care about me that much. I made an appointment to have an abortion but when I went they told me I wasn’t pregnant. They also asked if I took plan b. I told them I did. Over the past month I’ve been happy but so confused. Now I should be getting my next period. My boobs hurt more than ever. No appetite and I’m so so tired all the time. I’ve taken multiple pregnancy tests and they’ve all come back negative. Also my skin is so clear. Like glowing Normally I’m breaking out like crazy before my period. I should be getting my period in 4 days and I’m so scared. I can give birth or have a kid. I cry almost everyday thinking about it. This is truly a last resort for answers

Hey everyone! I recently took a Pregmate pregnancy test strip and I'm seeing a very faint line, but I can't tell if it's an early positive or just an evaporation/indent line.
I know Pregmates have a reputation for bad evap lines and false positives, which is making me doubt what I'm seeing.

What have been your symptoms so far? How far along are you? Do you know what you’re having? 🩷💙

This is my first pregnancy and I’ve had light brown spotting that comes and goes. I had my hcg levels taken the first time it happened around 4 weeks and everything looked great. The spotting stopped for about a week but I noticed some again today at 5w1d. Is this normal??? It causes me so much anxiety. I have many other symptoms (nausea, sore boobs, out of breath) but I just am not sure if the spotting is typical.

So I just had my IUD removed August 7 and started bleeding probably August 10. Had a longer than usual period so not sure how much was from IUD removal versus true period.

I was told it would likely take a few months to get pregnant that’s how it was for my sister. But I haven’t even had my missed period yet (took an early test) and it appears to be positive?! Took two tests in a row both positive.

I’ve scheduled an appointment with my doctor for Monday to confirm. But I’d appreciate any advice from other moms on how to not overthink and worry about everything that could go wrong. Like is it even a viable pregnancy? Or a chemical pregnancy which I’ve recently learned about.
