what does stripping your membranes mean when you are pregnant?
606320
The membranes tend to cling to the wall of the uterus until after the baby is born and the placenta is expelled. As the cervix begins to soften and open (dilate) at the end of pregnancy, the part of the membranes that was over the cervical opening can be felt through the opening when a vaginal exam is done. "Stripping the membranes" is done by inserting a finger between the membranes and the wall of the uterus to loosen the membranes from the wall. Sometimes, this stimulation of the uterine wall can help to start labor. Sometimes, the loosening of the membranes allows more water to collect in front of the baby which puts more pressure on the cervix and perhaps labor is stimulated that way. The procedure can be a little uncomfortable for some women. If the woman is truly near delivery, she often gets a contraction as a result of the procedure. Usually the practitioner tries not to break the bag of waters when the membranes are loosened. Breaking the bag of waters commits the woman to delivery, perhaps before the baby is ready to come. Although stripping membranes is not considered a form of induction, the hope is that it is a form of stimulation of labor. Done too early, it has no effect, but if the body is nearly ready anyway, it can give a little jump-start to the labor process.

I bought one of those roller things that you roll on the floor forward and back while kneeling. It has burned a lot of fat on my tummy. But I still have a little extra pudge from being prego. I think that sometimes your skin stretches and when you lose the weight, Presto- excess skin. It doesn't always go back to the way it was.

Just to add- if your belly button popped out when you were pregnant you could have had a hernia or torn muscle which is normal during pregnancy.  If you are having problems with toning one side that used to be tone then you could have some damage there.  Unfortunately, no matter what any trainer tell you the only way to fix it is plastic surgery.   My girlfriend just went through this.... not the surgery part- just trying to get her stomach flat again!

Early pregnancy shouldn't cause a foul discharge.  Better get to your doctor and have this checked out. You might have an infection.

Pus cells of 80-100 means Urinary Tract infection. Is this midstream urine ? or the initial flow. Ideally we should collect for the middle flow of our urine since it is more sterile or more clean. The initial flow is usually dirty & may affect the result.  IF this is midstream, you should be given an antibiotic by your obstetrician. If not treated, it might lead to miscarriage if in the first 3 months of pregnancy or early contractions ( Premature contractions) which should be controlled if not yet near term. Not all antibiotics are safe for pregnancy. CONSULT NOW!  the traces of albumin is secondary to the infection!

because they put as small amount of hormones into your body to make the body think it's pregnant thus stopping the womb from emptying itself and you having a period

Means that you should get to the store and buy a home pregnancy test just in case, if it comes back positive make an appointment to have an official test done by your doctor and so he can give you a referral to an OBGYN.  Keep in mind not all women have the symptoms of pregnancy when they are pregnant, you wouldn't be eating a lot in the early stages of pregnancy and you might be one of the lucky ones not to get morning/evening sickness...\n\nIf the test comes back negative you should see your doctor either ask if it could be the cause of a certain birth control you are taking, if you are, or see if perhaps you are just really stressed out, have a poor diet, or what other long list of possibilities could be causing it....

You're stripping the skin off. Don't do it as hard or get some lubrication.

Girl, get you a cute maternity outfit and let them know that you are about to become a mother, and despite looking like a sexy pregnant woman, you do not feel well.  Then I would grab me a plate of bbq (if you can hold it down) and clean my plate... mingle for about 10 minutes and excuse myself!  If someone thought that was rude... blame it on the hormones!  Good luck with everything!

U forgot... " When a baby is aborted in the third trimester it is yanked out limb by limb!"

Absolutely nthing that would happen if you weren't pregnant. But remember not to go hard core vecause you could detach the placenta, which is very dangerous for both you and the baby. If you spot after sex...just a little...this is normal...anything else see your ob.

it's because during the menstrual cycle the membrane known as hymen ruptures.The blood which comes out in form of liquid and semisolid material is this membrane itself.If a girl conceives  then it is this membrane which provides nourishment to the ovum.

Get used to it. The menstrual cycle cleanses the uterus for child bearing. If the lining does not shed-a thick wall of skin builds up. Thus-it will be difficult to conceive children and could lead to infection.

theres a blood clot in the placenta. this might prevent some nutrients getting to the baby. keep an eye on this and visit your doc regularly.
