Alcohol while conceiving

hi all, i also just found out that i was pregnant few days ago, and got excited and scared at the same time, specially after my bf rejecting being with me if i keep this baby, been even harder,but i'm trying my best to stay strong and do what i wanna do. I have a question for the girls here who got pregnant recently as well- Cas my pregnancy wasnt planned i didnt realy prepair my body for that and had couple of parties which were sort of around my ovulation time when i concived, and also a week after i had couple of drinkins as friends leaving party, I'm not a heavy drinker just a casual but i am really worried if drknking that time could affect my baby and it makes me think about it everyday.
Any comments be appreciated i'm just very worried [Frown]

Yes, whatever you do, dont stomp on them, they will stain,(stink too), i'm in wisconsin so the first sign of sunshine, they are everywhere. Use a vacuum if you can to suck them up in the house, cuz the orange is really hard to get out.

I am at war with the ladybugs!!!! I feel so creepy in my own house. They are in my kitchen and bathroom the worst. I am about to lose my mind. It's like something out of a sci fi movie or something!!! How do u kill them????

We put in a new slidding glass door the other day and when the old came out....... OMG!!!! EVERYWHERE!!!! little creepy crawly bugs all over!   The new one is in and seeled tight, but they are still comming in somewhere!! They drop on my head when i walk in and out of the door!! IN MY HAIR!!!!

Where did these stupid things come from anyway? I don't remember them as a kid. Probably some alien species or something.

As soon as we moved into our house (it was brand new) lady bugs were everywhere , I heard that there eggs get in the wood so once we moved in they were ready to hatch :) Whatever u do don't smash one on anything important, I heard they'll stain YUCK!!! We don't have any now! It took soo long for em to leave LOL :)

We live in alabama so we got lots of woods too so u never know what'll turn up :)

Yep I'd bet it's a wildcat, we have em here too, I've never seen one out & about, but heard it sounds just like a woman screamimg!!! Cyotes (sp) r bad here too, they sound scary when a pack of em gets to howling!!

Gollyee ! Where in the world do you live to have all that in your yard?!?! We have this creepy something out in my woods. One night we had friends over and we were all in the kitchen. Our friend was standing by the window and asked what that screeming was. We walked out on the porch and it sounded like a woman and her baby screaming bloody murder. People have told us it's a wild cat. I've never seen one, but his mother did years ago. She saw a HUGE black cat come down in the yard. Then a man was huntin on our land and said he saw it. I don't know. I'm freakin out it will come pay me a visit. it's pretty neat to have things like that around the yard, but I'm not taking the chance on my kids gettin hurt. So, if it comes round' here. Mama Lucy's shotgun will have to take it out. What ever it is!!

We have a lot of black bear, they have never bother us at our house, but it tore stuff up at the barn. My brother had a bunch of goat's and the bear killed everyone of'm!!! I really like those goat's. Oh, well, part of lining in the wood's.
by the way are you infested with those pesky ladybugs??????

Now, You all be careul around those birds. they will charge at you and tear you up with their feet. they're mean little boogers. We have wild turkey that are always in my front yard in the evenings. About twenty of them. I have a little Jack Russle Terrier and he thinks he's big stuff. He took off the other day after those turkey's. they flogged the pee out of him. It took him a while to back down though. All you could see was feathers. I was rollin. He won't even look at them now. I think he's embarassed.

Sorry, I got off track and forgot to post regarding the "original" post.  I  think you and your baby will be fine, just take care of yourself now that you do know and take those prenatal pills even if they back you up to the point you'lll feel like you'll explode!! LOL...joking of course!!!  I knew a girl (18 when she was pg)who continued to drink and smoke throughout her pregnancy and her daughter wa born with CP.  She has had to live with the consequences of her actions ever since....every day when she looks at her daughter and sees she can't do the things that other kids her age do she is tormented with the "what if's" and that has eaten her up.  So the moral of my story...do what you should to take care of your fetus...do your part and let God do his!  Good luck!

hey girls thank yo all for your replies,hey LUCY you made me laugh:))
no way i'll be drinking knowing that i'm pregnant, and yeah there are women who keep drinking while pregnant and smoking and dnt even care about their babies. i knew one girl who had a baby, who is 2 years old now and healthy( which i'm surprised aobut), she was keep on drking heavily and smoke while being pregnant, which is horrible thing to do, well she was lucky to have healthy baby but in some cases it might be the other way

Maybe w/ a bit of luck you'll find one near your house, surely they escape sometimes like the emu's do. Once we were on the 4 wheeler & almost ran over an emu b/c it was lying down & flew up on it, we turned real fast & I was so terrified it was gonna chase us, especially since I was on the back of the 4wh. Just pic. an emu chasing u, I mean where r u gonna go LOL :) We've even seen em out at church too, can u imagine the parents herding the kids quickly to the cars :) it happened!

South is always cheaper than most places thru out the US so here it's about $25.00 for an up do (hair curled & piled on top of head) I'm not sure about dread locks I've never had to do em. I know extensions take most of the day to do so it's close to $200-350 possibly more depending on if you go to the big cities here & have it done. Up do's r my favorite to do, I'd love to wk for a wedding chapel!!!! How do u do dreads yourself? I figured your arms would fall off in the process LOL
