Worried mom.... Looking for advice?

Question

I just found out I'm pregnant and I've been trying to think back to when my last period was. I've been really stressed and its been off. I had two periods within a four week time frame during the end of May and middle of June which I didn't think anything about. When I didn't get my period in July I thought nothing of it because I figured I'd skip anyway. However, a few weeks ago at work a resident I care for asked me if I was pregnant. I don't know where her question came from but it was enough to get me to buy a test which came out POSITIVE! However, I've had really bad headaches the past few months and I had been taking excedrin, which has aspirin, a big NO NO during pregnancy! Plus, I drank on the 9th of July for my 23rd birthday. With my other two pregnancies I knew right away, I took vitamins and followed all the rules straight from the start. I'm worried I may have hurt this baby! My preliminary appointment with the nurse is next Wednesday where we'll choose my doctor and set up an appointment. Its killing me to wait that long. Anyone else ever been in this situation? Did the baby turn out okay? Please share your experiences!

Answer 1

The only symptom i had was a headache. I did not know i was pregnant and i was about a month and a half when i finally went to the doctor for the headaches. Don't worry everything will be fine .Just take care of yourself and the little one from here on out.Best Wishes!!!

Answer 2

my roommate didn't have any symptoms (or so she thought) She was on a partying binge for a while and then got a bladder infection, when she went to the hospital they told her she was 6months pregnant.

They have done many many tests on her unborn baby and everything seams to be ok.

we will see when she delivers tho.

Im sure everyone is diffrent but just remember that stress is a big no no!

so try not to stress and relax. I know how you feel, i have not had ANY dr appts yet and im stressin because i had some jack daniels weekend before last. (before we knew)
