When trying to conceive, should I refrain from sleeping on my electric blanket?

actor_girl_1986 asked:


I know it’s a silly question, but my fiance and I are trying to conceive, and we’re finding it difficult. I know that high heat kills sperm inside the testicles and after ejaculation, but can it kill when they’re already in my cervix/womb? Should I sleep on the cold side of the bed to be safe and ensure the best environment for my soon-to-be-babies?

Can you get pregnant without actually having sex?

My friend doesnt have sex, she just messes around with her boyfriend, sometimes it gets a little crazy….she has been saying her stomach looks like shes pregnant…i think it doesnt at all. and she says she feels a little nautious sometimes and her stomach feels a little harder….shes always been like that though (shes been doing pilates for 2 weeks..lol..).. I guess my question is: Do you think she could be pregnant even thoough she doesnt have sex and is super careful about things when shes messing around? What do you think the chances are…
shes one of those “what if” people, always worrying about things she shouldnt……
all that virgin mary crap isnt really necessary…..its a freakin question if you dont have a helpful answer dont waste your time….I’ve read some pretty dumb questions on here and this isnt as bad..

Has anyone had low levels of pregnancy hormone that didn’t show up until later ?

I’m 36 days past my LMP (March 8th, 6 days long) and no period yet. My normal cycles range from 30-35 so this is unusual for me. I’m not on any medication or birth control and I had one act of unprotected sex March 19th. I figure I ovulated anywhere from the 20-25th of March. Is there any chance my hormone levels are still too low to detect pregnancy on a HPT? They’re all negative so far…Has anyone had low levels that didn’t show up until later in their pregnancy?

How soon after trying to conceive can you find out if you are pregnant?

marines wife asked:


Me and my husband just started trying to conceive this weekend. I usually have my period on the 10th of every month. If I do miss it next month, is it still too soon to take a pregnancy test? Because I have missed my period in the months before but not pregnant, so I can’t go by missing it to know if I’m pregnant or not.

Pregnancy After Miscarriage?

i went back to the doctor yesterday after 7 weeks from my miscarriage to have another checkup. two days ago my breast starting to ache and began to get swollen and i am starting to have vomitting with light cramping. the doctor did a pregnancy test and it was negative.my last pregnancy my first signs were sore breasts and vomitting and i got a positive test result after 5 weeks and when i performed the test before that it was negative. i have never had sore breast before my period started, could it most likely be a period? i haven’t had a period yet since the miscarriage and the doctor said by 8 weeks i should which is next week. could i be pregnant and the pregnancy test done too early?

I can’t get a pregnancy test until saturday and I have a feeling i am. I’m not getting as many symptoms as I did in my last pregnancy but I really want to be pregnant. Is there any way to find out, uncommon symptoms? Maybe it’s just wishful thinking.
