  • @DearMe2u

    I have a question. Since when has Human pregnancies lasted 10 months? When I was growing up and through my childbearing years, it was always 9 months of pregnancy. I know pretty much the exact day I got pregnant for all 4 of my pregnancies. My first pregnancy I conceived a week before my birthday in November and my son was born July 31st, the exact day the Dr. Gave me for his due date. So I was pregnant for around 36 weeks for each of my pregnancies. These day you have to be pregnant for at least 40 weeks. When did this happen?

    • @aishahiltz9458
      @aishahiltz9458 년 전 +5

      Because pregnancy is counted from the first day of your last period. Which means and extra 2 weeks are added on when you aren’t actually pregnant. Hence 10 months. Google also works great for questions like these because you kind of sound rude.

    According to to my calculations I’m 12 weeks pregnant. I started with a light bleeding and I went to a doctor for an ultrasound, the baby was difficult to find the doc said it’s very small , no heartbeat could be felt, and according to the scan it has 6weeks 1 day. I was asked to comeback in one weeks to check again. Should I have hopes? I have so many questions without answers. I don’t have any symptoms apart from light nauseas. My bleeding has stopped. I’m very confused 😕 😢

    I was pregnant on the fifth of April, and after five weeks my husband returned from travel and had foreplay, next day I was bleeding non stop It was not much until the 29th of May age
    After 7 weeks The doctor told me that the fetus died in the fifth week, and I took medication to open the uterus and I did miscarriage , I was bleeding until Sunday June second the doctor said that ovulation is next Sunday, but on Monday I bleed some light spotting of blood until the fourth day I had Intercourse so I got more bleeding .
    My menstruation is usually light for 3 days. What should I do in order not to repeat the miscarriage experience? Was foreplay the cause of uterine bleeding? Do you think I didn’t have ovulation after the miscarriage? It was a regular mistake from the doctor? Or he doesn’t do a good job to calculate. Please give me your opinion

      Yes it takes a few days for the sperm to reach and burrow into the egg. Then that fertilized egg has to implant itself in your uterus. Then you are pregnant. A process.
