Also, not but an hour ago I was googling if you can hear multiples through fetal doppler at 7 weeks. I *know* you might not even hear a singleton at 7 weeks, but I am obsessed with the possibility of multiples and won't get an u/s until 10 weeks. Was hoping magically the doppler could confirm for me.

My ultrasound isn't until 12 weeks. I'm interested in knowing the answer too. (I have no reason to think I'm having multiples).

Herbal tea and pregnancy?

Ectopic pregnancy symptoms.

Gender predictors ? (I felt so much shame doing this one but curiosity got the better of me)

estakis I went up Pike Peak when I was pg with DS and I was sure I was going to suffocate him. So I googled "can my baby breathe at high altitudes".

ntaylor989 thank you for sharing your knowledge! Now I need a Doppler.

YES.  I'm assuming you are obsessing over the spacefem website then too??


mrsb1008 I assume the answer was "yes" to is herbal tea okay? I'm drinking mint tea every night. It is my sorry replacement for wine.  My rule of thumb is, if Mormons eat/drink it, then it's probably okay.

[andtheheartbreakers]

Not google, but I instagram searched #5weekspregnant and #6weekspregnant so I could laugh at all the idiots posting pictures of their 5 week bump. Seriously, funniest shit I've seen all day.

Yes! It got me totally freaked out today. Although I read a few other sites that offered lower chances so that made me feel a little better.

That was hilarious.  One girl even but a bunch of stuff about her discharge in the comments.  Here, I get it, but my work friends don't need to hear about stuff that happens when I wipe.  Christ.

I know!!! My parents follow me on instagram, I couldn't imagine them reading about something like that!

For the most part it's ok. I guess there are certain herbs to avoid but the information is really spotty at best. Peppermint is for sure ok. What I took away from it was if its in a pre packaged teabag it's most likely ok (especially in moderation) and I'll just be careful with loose teas. Unfortunately because they aren't regulated that's where there can be issues so I'll stick to commercially packed stuff.

[tgk22]

My recent searches have been about vba2c and trisomy 18 odds. I'm a pgal so of course my mind is racing on that aspect. Shooting guns while pregnant and smallest booster seats (for my 4 yo's).... These are a few that have been up lately. Lol.

I actually know a Mormon who won't consume anything brewed... So no tea.

But I'm pretty sure peppermint tea is fine.

This site has come an obsession for me too. My last google was: 7 week u/s. It was a poor choice.

[allycat]

Yeah, ladies - don't google Xweek ultrasounds. There are way too many sad pictures.

I haven't googled anything stupid yet this time, but the last two times I was obsessed with the beta hCG charts. First, what's the lowest hcg possible for a successful pregnancy? Then, the highest? Hcg by dpo?

You can probably see why I'm happy not to get betas done this time.

I will second googling beta results. Getting set #3 done today so I'm sure I will google ridiculously while waiting for my results.

I Google so many dumb things. Things I know even. Because WebMD is totes my doctor.

Why didn't I googled? When I die, my last wish is for my SO to delete my Google history.

[dorkymama]

Almost every time I eat something questionable, I google "[food] during pregnancy".


Once I was eating canned pineapple and freaked out for about 10 minutes after reading tons of articles and forum posts about how pineapple causes miscarriage. Then I learned canned pineapple is fine because the enzyme is killed with heat (and heat is required for canning).

...what cervical mucus looks like after conception. Yes, I know gross.
... Sensitivity of pregnancy tests.
...ectopic pregnancy symptoms.
...csection scar pain during pregnancy.
To be fair, I also looked these questions up on reputable sites at the hospital too.

I so do this too lol. It's hilarious and then I secretly hide my phone from DH while I search so he doesn't know what I'm looking at lol! 

[TrickyJedi]

I Googled "Can I handle my chicken pregnant?" this morning. I got a bunch of answers that chickens don't get pregnant, they lay eggs. No shit.

[hovenb]

This isn't necessarily funny, but I just googled "Is Lilash safe during pregnancy?" It is an eyelash stimulator that has made my eyelashes super long for years. Now I have to quit it. I didn't even think about it until last night when I was putting it on. My eyelashes are going to be all stubby, and I think those fake ones can look weird. It is totally vain. But I guess I will happily have no eyelashes for a baby.
