Obstetrical adjusted my weight update [midwife] [eyebrow]

I went to the midwife yesterday and I originally posted as it was worth mentioning that scale I weighed 6 pounds heavier than I really am. She adjusted my weight on their scale, so I only 3 pounds not gained 7-8 pounds. I gave them a pre-preggo weight of 108 and she weighed me at 114, it was gone. Im glad they changed, because it was about an eyebrow about the weight gain to draw ! : D

Could I be pregnant? [last period] [fiancee]

Hello everyone. Ill just start with this . I have irregular periods and Im not sure when I ovulate because of this, but I think its about a cycle of 30 days for me. The first day of my last period was on December 29. My fiancee and I had a small accident at 1.17 with a condom. It somehow came from inside me and neither of us noticed until it was too late. Where the family goes, lets just say that they are all very fruitful. Both my mother and sister was pregnant the first time that she, tried se

Someone else gets a faint positive HPT? [positive hpt] [next morning]

hey Im a bit confused and would like some advice. Im a week late on my period and I tested three days ago, before I went to bed and got a negative. Then the next morning, I made one and I have a weak positive after about 3 minutes. You could read the test when held at arms length. I was not convinced, so I did one another on the morning after and was another vaguely positive. I do not know what to think? Has this ever happened to anyone else? Do you think im PREG or not? : Confused:: confused:
