Hello ladies,

I just took a pregnancy test 3 days ago (for the second time), and, surprise surprise, I'm pregnant! this is great, however I have quite few concerns, first of all I am very irregular, my last period started on Oct, 20th, but then I took a test on Nov. 26th I think , and it was negative. After which I proceeded to get drunk a couple of times in a row (I turned 30 the next weekend). On top of this I have no symptoms whatsoever, which supposedlyu should have shown up by now. My first doctor's appt is on Monday, but I am kinda freaking out here. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Anybody?? Did anyone else drink before finding out? Will this affect my pregnancy?

Not everyone gets your typical pregnancy symptoms early, some people never get very strong. Just because you don't have syptoms you shouldn't worry. Your doc'll fill you in on the rest on monday.

Before I found out I was pregnant we went out a few times and definetly drank. My doc said not to worry about it. You'll be ok.

Thanks ladies, it gives me some relief. Since my test I have not been able to concentrate on anything. All I do is read pregnancy forums all day. My work is definetely suffering from this.

I wouldn't worry about things you can't change. Alot of people drink before they know they are pregnant. I don't think I would worry unless you plan on drinking thoughour your pregnancy. I took motrin for like a week and 1/2 b/c I didn't know I was pregnant and I thought I was getting menstrual cramps... and about not having symptoms. Some people never have any AT ALL- and sometimes they just haven't hit yet. I found out I was pregnant at 4 weeks and I felt great- just crampy and then at 5 weeks the morning sickness showed up and hasn't left yet and I am almost 15 weeks. Welcome to the pregnant club. Its a crazy thing- Pregnancy. Congrats

Def. dont worry about the drinking...Just no more after the BFP and you're fine.
Most symptoms dont really start until 6-8weeks...and some never.
...fatigue is the most common and believe me, it will creep up on you.
In a few weeks you'll be finding that you wanna go to bed at 8pm!!! haha;.
Good Luck
