Wait you are the 19 year old who says you are ready for a baby....Maybe you should learn the basics first. You advised a girl on another thread that she can get pregnant even if she is NOT ovulating....can you explain that??

That discharge is one of many possible signs of pregnancy, and can get worse with time. Buy panty liners instead of using a tampon. Take a test when you are sure you are late, using first morning pee. GL!

thanks! and i asked my obgyn about if it is POSSIBLE which it is, but not probable... that's all... you can get pregnant whenever but the likelihood is extremely low... but thanks for all the help :)

It's recommended that you shouldn't use tampons for discharge anyway, so I'd say no don't use a tampon. Grandpa viv is right. Use a panty liner.

alydabom, you cant get pregnant when you arent ovulating but im sure what you OB meant was that sperm can usually live for 3-5 days so if you have s_x right before you ovulate you may become pregnant, but im sure you understood it that way but didnt think people would nit pick at everything you say.....other then that listen to grandpa viv he is right.
Iona......your a b___h, and you should learn to just keep your nasty mouth shut.....thats all i have to say to you.

Am I the only one who reads warning labels? You aren't supposed to use tampons between periods or for discharge. Pregnant or otherwise.
DB I have to say I agree with iona on this one. She really needs to learn the basics of pregnancy before she decides that she's so confident. She needs to do what I did, pick up every pregnancy and parenting book within 100 miles of her and THEN decide if she's ready. However I will say she carries herself very well, seems mature and is quite nice and a positive person. All she needs to do is learn the basics, I think she'd do really well as a mother. I think that if she doesn't know what she's getting herself into, the shock of it all will be too much to handle, and I'll say that about anyone and everyone. You just need to get as educated and experienced as possible so the shock is... hm, far less. Know what I'm sayin'?

Amanda, iona never has anything nice to say. To me this was a very respectable question...yes she could of just read it in the instruction in the tampon box, but to me asking the question on here is the same as reading it or googleing it. I was just talking to my friend last night about bfing and how with Dante I didn't know any better and thought that how much milk you make is how much you get. I didn't know you could have some sence of control over it. I went 3 months bf pumping every hour because that's how long it took for me to get engorged and leak...I had no clue that if I toughed it out and pumped a little less often that I would start produceing less milk....I never thought to look it up cause I never thought I was doing anything wrong.
It is her first baby so of course she is going to have a bunch of questions that we are going to look at and be like "how does she not know this?" The only way to know for sure is to ask. There is no need to act immature and point out how immature someone else is or how they aren't ready for a baby...NOONE will every be ready for a baby, no matter their situation. I'm just tired of iona jumping on everyones a__s for simple questions

I agree in some sense. Iona is more hurtful then helpful and says things like "Ask your parents if you can have your baby because they are the ones who are going to be taking care of it" to any young parent. I also agree that no one is ready to be a parent until they are one, in another post she stated that she felt like she was ready for a baby and I just think that's a dumb thing to say because no one is.
It is her "I'm so ready for this" att_tude that's making me uneasy. Any first time parent with that much confidence must not have the slightest idea what they are getting themselves into. Other than that I really have nothing bad to say about her and I think it's fine that she's asking questions and trying to learn more about what's going on.

first off i am not trying to get pregnant, hints the birth control. I do have 5 friends that are pregnant/have a child and i take care of them as if they are my own and some are unfit mothers. and i went to the dr and she said that this early *IF* i am pregnant would not hurt the baby at all because the tampon can not go up that far unless you take it with your fist and shove it up there. She said that for spotting and bleeding that could happen, it would not do anyhting YET. however, later on it could be POSSIBLE. and yes with the not getting pregnant while ovulating, i think that was probably what she ment by the sperm living in there, that is jus what i was told lol so thanks for stickin up for me, but i can handle myself and i do take care of children almost on a daily basis.
