happy father's day!

[formerfetus]

last night i went to a party and the boy was there and wasted. i caught up with him and then we talked about everything. i told him happy father's day and he didn't think it was nearly as funny as i did. i bet that we're the weirdest and coolest would-be parents possible

Have you talked to a doctor yet? Or maybe called the nurse hotline at your local hospital? It sounds like you should at least get a medical opinion about the spotting. And if you're having bleeding, you should think about not drinking until you know what it is, since alcohol thins your blood and can make you bleed more.

Anyways, glad you're feeling better! Have fun wherever you're going.

have you ever called the hospital asking for an opinion though

We have the Mercy Nurse hotline where I live, and they are wonderfully helpful people. They are there specifically to answer questions and tell you what may or may not be wrong. Obviously they can't diagnose over the phone, but they can give you a better idea of whether you should be especially concerned at the moment.

I called when I was pregnant and having weird cramps. The nurse explained what I should do if I started bleeding, if the cramps became very painful, etc. Then she told me that it was normal to experience some odd twinges as your uterus starts to expand, and that was most likely what it was. So, that saved me a trip to the doctor, because I knew next to nothing about pregnancy and thought I might have an ectopic.

That's cool that you have that there...I wish we had something similar...I will say that with this pregnancy it has been somewhat nice that the OB/GYN clinic I'm using is the ONLY one affiliated with this hospital (a pretty new womens hospital...although they encompase anything from breast cancer-plastic surgery...they probably do more with babies than anything...)

But it has been nice on the very few occasions that something has really bothered me...like the bleeding episode...that someone was there to be a bit more helpful...of course bleeding at any point is something to take seriously b/c it can be something o might not...ya never know...

sounds like you are coping very well, sweety, keep it up... hope everything goes very smoothly!

"i'm going through the physical crap of it"

This may only be my opinion, but I think that this sentence says a lot. YOU are going through the physical stuff, I think you have it pretty hard yourself. I do understand what you mean about the boy's not being able to do anything, but I still think you got the short end of the stick.

Me and my friends used to joke around coming up with baby names. She once said "You know what I'mma name my baby? Mistake." Your story reminded me of this, and I thought it was kinda funny.

You do seem to be coping well, as someone above me said, and I wish you the best of luck.

I'm not totally for sure if this is real or not, I read it a few days ago when my friend linked to it and didn't think so then either. But anyhow, Sunday night and scanning the journals... heres my thoughts:

Like you stated, the guy seems like hes guilty over it now. And when he gets older, this situation that seems out of his hands at this point (since its in your body after all) may come back to bother him when hes older, mature, and having children of his own. Go easy on him because the guilt he carries with him later in life may be more than he can deal with.

I'm against abortion myself, and like I said I have my doubt over this whole journal thing being real, but this is more of a message for other girls to think about who are in this situation. It seems pretty cruel to pester a guy with "happy fathers day" over a baby you're going to abort. The guilt may consume him down the road.

I assure you that she is in fact pregnant. I watched her pee on the test, and I watched the test relay postive results.

She started this journal for her self and for her friends and the "father" to understand what was going on and what she was going through at this time in her life. It is beneificial to us all.

[sarah601]

I think its strange b/c "formerfetus", the author of this journal, has posted several times saying things like "I told her..." and "I think she..." in this journal and also on throwingstardna. Unless formerfetus has some type of complex where she refers to herself in 3rd person all the time, I have a feeling that she keeps forgetting to log out before she hops on another user name like "luckyfetus", which chats quite a lot but has no entries in her own journal

[luckyfetus]

You're wrong.

fomerfetus' friends are posting anonymously for her privacy. so that this is not a wide spread thing on the lj community in the town that we live, or on their own journals.

I am not formerfeuts. I am her best friend. I started off by posting anonymously, however I wanted to take responsibility of the comments. Therefore I had to make my own new livejournal, again, for privacy purposes.

And again, as we have said before, we do not need to validate this story to anyone, at all, especially you. She has the support she needs.

If you need, you may link your next post, where formerfetus replys to posts, or comments, while speaking about herself in third person. I will be able to explain why she does this, or if it is even her, for you. I wouldn't want you to be confused.

may I suggest if you're going to keep this up double check who you're signed in under before you post back to yourself.I am also not sure what you mean by this statment, other than if you thought I (luckyfetus) were formerfetus. In which case it is not

[ec_stacy]

random question...

did you have any symptoms before you knew you were pregnant or did you get tested before you knew/felt anything?
