    Hey there!
    I just wanted to add an update...
    I saw a doc today... (which is our new family doctor)
    I had my pap done... I didn't get my results back yet (obviously) but I asked her.. and she said that everything "down there" looked the way it should... as in everything looked normal.. so now I guess we just wait and see the results from the pap...
    OH and she made me up a prescription of folic acid... said I should be taking 5mg... and the prenatls only had 1mg... I guess I need more because I had a cousin (who is no longer with us) that had spinal bifia...
    She made the prescription out for 3 months... and told me to take 1 per day... and not to take the prenatals now... (I'm not sure if I understand that) BUT... I went to have blood work done today... so they are going to check all of my vitamin/mineral levels...
    So maybe that is why she told me not to take the prenatlas? Because she is going to wait for the results of the blood tests... then maybe she will have a better idea of what I should be taking for a multi-vitamin...

    Quick question... do they normally "spray" something when you have a pap? I told her that I thought I might have some kind of a yeast infection or something... but I wasn't sure because I have never had one... so maybe she was testing for infection or something?

    So... hopefully you guys still look at this thread... since it's old haha
    So anyway...
    Wanted to make an update... I've been off the pill for about 2 months now... I've been taking 5mg of folic acid... the doctor prescribed it for me... I guess I need more beacause I had a cousin with spinal bifia...
    Anyway... so I've been taking those pills... also they preformed a blood test to see if I was healthy (im assuming checking vitamins etc) and they came back great

    I just was concered... now... if my body IS producing eggs, I figure I would have ovulated around the 24th-26th of this month... so as of today... it would be about 8 or 9 days PAST ovulation... I have been peeing a lot more lately and feel the need to drink more water... (so that could be why I am peeing more)... also sore nipples, cramping for almost 2 weeks... and today (again about 8 or 9 dpo) when I went to pee... I noticed a spot....just like a DROP of pink blood......any ideas what that could have been?
    I'm really hoping that we are pregnant... I am suppose to start my period this Monday coming (March 10th) I was playing around online... and found out (according to my last period) IF I AM pregnant... I would be 24 days... obviously way too soon to tell...

    Quick question... it's probably kind of stupid haha... but I know that your breasts get larger when you're pregnant... just wondering about how large mine will get... I mean... I'm D cup... (a lot of people think DD) anyway... just wondering if you have any ideas on how large mine will get... please say not too much larger haha

    I'm going to call the doctor tomorrow as soon as they open and make an appointment to see what I need to do next... seeing as I have never been pregnant before... lol
