The morning sickness put me in the hospital at 6 mos, but I widely read how to deal beside the minor stuff during the 2nd pregnancy. Some of the things that worked for me were:

    1. Saltine crackers (3-4) and ginger ale respectively morning before I get out of bed. I would put these on the bedside table so I didn't have to win up & get them from the kitchen.
    2. Don't skip out of bed in the mornings. Take a touch time to stretch and then seize up ...

    Make sure you drink a lot of river. Don't let your stomach gain completely empty. Keep some crackers subsequent to your bed, and eat a few up to that time you get up. Always hang on to starchy snacks (like crackers and pretzels) with you at adjectives times. Ginger really seems to work. You can drink ginger cookies, crystallized ginger, or drink ginger ale. There are even ginger pills that can help. I also found sour candies really help me. I loved the Altoids sours. They have ginger, tangerine, and raspberry flavors. I preferred the tangerine. There is a product call Preggie Pops that is supposed to help out. I tried them, but they worked as well as sour candy (at twice the price).

    I hope you gain to feeling better soon! Keep your commander up... it usually gets better by around the 12th week.
    preserve crackers and drink at bedside eat in the past you get up
    Lemonade works great as ably, also sucking on hard candies. If it is really fruitless sometimes doctors will prescribe meds. but they don't like to. The lemonade works great trust me.
    munch through dry toast
    dry biscuits help !

  • What is it??!?!?!?

    We are 10 weeks pregnant and the other day i have to do a vaginal at the doctors well i get my results back surrounded by the mail and the simply thing that be marked be other and she wrote vaginal cultures and then streaked normal. What is a vaginal culture?? She's never tarnished that on any of my other testing..:(

    Answers: since ure pregnant your gyno looked-for to make sure you don't enjoy any infections that could cause wound to your baby. a culture is simply a test to see if within are any bacteria contained by your vagina. the test showed you are fine
    It is adjectives normal conducting tests. You have probably have cultures before done next to your paps and just didn't know it. It is incredibly run of the mill. You are paying closer attention and they are including you in their findings more simply because you are pregnant. They will interview you and test you formerly that baby is born. Don't verbs about it, it is adjectives and very commonplace. You don't normally obtain tested for HIV with your other visit either but they will try-out you for that too. It is a pain really. But not a big operation. If there is ever a problem they will consent to you know. Try to relax and not worry. You are doing dutiful so far. Keep in mind that sometimes test can be wrong too. Not often but it happen. You shouldn't have to walk through any more vaginals till the end in a minute. Ofcourse I am assuming that you haven't been through adjectives this before. Try to relax, you are doing fitting! And congrats!! :)

  • Is it possible to enjoy an extraordinary pap simply because of stress?



    Answers: Not typically. But look too at what was going on at the time of your pap. Were you inside a week either course of your period? Did you douche inside 48 hours prior? Did you have intercourse in 3 days prior? Were you recently treating an infection that required antibiotics? Did you just now treat a yeast infection?

    Any of these things could effect a pap smear, and even if you didn't have an ACTIVE infection, you might own had some irritation to the cervical facade that caused an irregular result.

    DO follow up for your pap to make sure it's adjectives ok....if you have a repeat atypical DO follow up with second diagnostics. As a cervical cancer survivor, I can tell you first paw that early treatment is ESSENTIAL.
    No. The Pap experiment, also called a Pap smear, checks for change in the cell of your cervix. These cells cannot be effect due to stress.

    It is possible to get a false positive. Pap test are not always 100 percent correct. False positive and false cynical results can happen. This can be upsetting and confusing. A false positive Pap interview is when a woman is told she has phenomenal cervical cells, but the cell are really normal. If your doctor say your Pap results were a false positive, near is no problem.

    A false negative Pap testing is when a woman is told her cells are typical, but in certainty, there is a problem near the cervical cells that be missed. False negatives suspension the discovery and treatment of unhealthy cell of the cervix. But, having regular Pap test boosts your chances of finding any problems. If unexpected cells are missed at one time, they will probably be found on your subsequent Pap test.
    No. You enjoy an abnormal PAP because of a few reason.

    HPV infection, sex within 24 hours of a PAP smear, or a 'false' reading.

    You should hold another PAP, and you should not have sex for 2 days prior to the PAP.
    What do you expect by abnormal? One might enjoy inflammatory cells, yeast, excess germs ...

    However, an abnormal pap result, which prompts further workup because of cancer concern, is cause by infection.

    Good luck.
    Being under closely of stress can cause plentiful things, but I don't think it have anything to do with unexpected Pap Smear results. Usually when a person have an abnormal Pap, the doctor will telephone you to have you come posterior in and enjoy another test done. HPV (the Human Papilloma Virus) is usually the biggest incentive of an abnormal Pap Smear, but it could also indicate the the cell are changing and it could step into cancer. So make sure you followup near your doctor for more tests (there are several they can do to rule out cancerous cells) but fatefully, HPV can sometimes turn into cancer.
    HPV can also be caused when a woman is immuno-suppressant because she have severe Arthritis or another disease of that nature and is on medication for it. Different medications for severe immunosuppressant diseases can specifically change the shape of the cervical cell, so it is important to maintain in touch beside your doctor. I had one Pap come wager on abnormal within my early twenties and inwardly six months, it resolved itself without any further test, medication or operations. This is bit of the reason that the FDA come out with the shot to minister to prevent the HPV virus. Good luck to you and I hope your next Pap is regular. :)

  • Why am I peeing so much?

    I have be peeing every 20 to 30 minutes all hours of daylight. Woke up three times last hours of darkness to go to the loo (this is unusual for me). I havent have a lot to drink and it doesnt hurt when I progress.

    Answers: The most common cause for frequency in women is infection, this is usually, but not other uncomfortable. You make a contribution few details so there is a long chronicle of other possibilities which include pregnancy and diabetes.
    It is a symptom of diabetes as well as a possible urinary infection.
    I should see a doctor asap.

    Edit: I can't believe some idiot have given a thumbs down to all the relations who have given nouns advice - even Dr Frank, WomenAnswers.org' own respected GP have got one!
    Because urine trouble. lol

    You stipulation to see a doctor ASAP. Could be prostate problems or an infection in your bladder or even a kidney problem. Good luck.
    It sounds close to a urinary infection. Symptoms are different. You could have misery or not. You can urinate allot or little.

    See your urologist or gynecologist.
    Could be a urinary tract infection. But that usually hurts as well.
    See how it go, if it persists, see a doctor, and they will do a urine interview.
    Diabetes is associated with peeing lots, but as it's merely been sooner or later, I don't think there's anything to verbs about.
    pregnancy? diabetes? who know?


    go to a doctor, not Y!A.
    If you haven't be drinking more fluids - what are you peeing?

    It could still be something like a urinary tract infection - the discomfort may come later!

    Try conversation to a pharmacist if you don't want to bother your doctor at the moment - they should be able to proposal you some advice (and know how to ask the right questions!)
    Could be a quantity of things: Could you be pregnant? If you do start to experience pain or burning, it's probably a bladder infection. There's an otc med call Azo Standard that will give you some stopgap relief if you commence to feel discomfort until you can grasp to a Dr. for an antibiotic.

    Take care of this because if vanished untreated it could lead to serious problems.
    conceivably you are diabetic
    see your dr tomorrow
    preganant?
    hurt your back lately?
    ermm i don't know, if it carry on see your doctor.

    you may just be peeing alot basis your worried /nervous or that you keep thinking around peeing alot soo you have to shift?
    Sounds just similar to a urinary tract infection. I have a chronic one, and need to pee all the time is faultlessly normal. I also get hold of the bladder pain plentifully. Drink lots of water, and progress to your doctor right away. It's nothing serious, but the sooner you capture it sorted the better.

  • Anyone please relieve?

    me and my boyfriend hung out tonight and we started making out and my clothes were taken rotten. i had no pant or any underwear. then i give him head and when he come some of it i spit out. what happens if it touched my vagina? i hear that once the sperm hits air it dies. if it did touch my vagina could i become pregnant? please sustain im very afraid. thank you adjectives

    Answers: If it touched your vagina then it is not plausible you can become pregnant unless you it was ejaculate directly into your vagina. Sperm won't even live for a few hours if it is exposed to air and outside thing. Even in your vagina, the sperm won't end long because the secretions your vagina receive actually shoot the sperm. I know it sounds strange but when a guy ejaculates his sperm into a vagina, the secretion that your vagina makes see the sperm as a threat and kills them. The one and only way for a womanly to become pregnant is if the sperm is a really strong swimmer and makes it bygone the vagina and up to the cervix. You need not verbs in your situation, the sperm have most likely died. If it a short time ago touched the outside of your vagina, the chances of your getting pregnant is a moment ago about nought. Seriously, I don't think you hold anything to worry going on for.
    Sigh...if you don't understand the process of how you can become pregnant and what safe and sound sex is don't do it.

    No you can't become pregnant this way. However you put yourself at risk for STD's.
    okay economically it does die.
    but if it just touched your vagina
    you are not pregnant
    but I don`t know concerned about stds
    if it penetrated you and in fact went inside you
    later you might consider a home pregnancy test
    :)
    Yes sperm can live for fairly awhile inside and outside the body. They 'swim' their way toward the womans egg to try to fertilize it.
    Chances are more unlikely than credible that you would become pregnant by what you described.
    Were you practicing safe sex?.............. NO
    You must protect yourself.
    He demonstrably is not going to do it for you.


    Are you ready to be a mother?
    Are you all set to face the reality that you are going to die from a Sexually Transmitted Disease?
    Are you ready to explain to your subsequent partner that you have a lifelong STD that they could pick up just by self intimate with you?
    If the answer to the above three question is NO... then you better procure your head straight when it comes to using protection.

    Here is some information for you...........

    http://www.plannedparenthood.org/birth-c...

    By the track... I had a kid when I was 16...... it is not a road you want to travel..... PROTECT YOURSELF.
    Sperm dies pretty fast after nouns hits it. So unless he ejaculated directly into your vagina you should be fine.
