Pregnancy Info HOME

I'm pretty worried... My girlfriend is about 7 weeks 5 days along, as best we can figure. She hasn't had any prenatal care, other than taking some supplements and prenatal vitamins. She's got a rare disorder which causes her to be chronically deprived of potassium and magnesium, so she's always experiencing muscle pain, cramps, spasming, fatigue, etc. She's also been having some other assorted pains. She won't get an ultrasound because she's heard it might be dangerous for babies (some new study, apparently) and says that if she is going to miscarry, there's nothing they can do about it anyway, so it's pointless. Anyway, she's had some severe nausea (morning sickness) in the last couple of weeks, but it seems to have gotten better now. She was also in a car wreck last week (totaled my Focus, but she walked away with only bruises and minor burns from the airbag deploying. What worries me, though, is that she has been barely eating.... basically one meal a day for most of her pregnancy so far, and yesterday all she had was a measly grilled cheese sandwich. She hasn't been to a doctor yet because we don't have insurance and she's waiting until she goes home to her family's state, where she says the doctors are better, before she applies for medicaid. Anyway, am I just worrying too much, or are these very real risk factors for a miscarriage?
