Am I Pregnant?

I've been going crazy for two weeks wondering if I'm pregnant. People say not to think about it when you're trying to conceive. How can I not think about it? It's on my mind constantly.

My period is only 1 day late so far. Is it because I'm anxious all the time? I don't want to get my hopes up here.

Oh, and this would be my first.

And, it's our first try.

Hi- Stress can delay the start of you period. Try exercising and having sex. If my Aunt Flo is late, having sex seems to get it going within 24 hours (not sure why). Most of the tests on the market these days can be taken 3 to five days after your missed period. I trust the brand EPT the most. Just as an FYI the digital tests that are on the market now have been knowen to show false results. Congratulations on starting a family and don't get frustrated if it doesn't happen the first month. And if it does- congratulations again!

Go take a test...you might be pregnant enough already :0) ISome of those tests work pretty early in your cycle. Besides, if negative, have more sex and check again in a few days...

Have fun starting a family ;o)

OOh how exciting! I've been really impatient like that too. Take a test! Mine showed positive the day after my missed period. If it doesn't happen this time, I hope it does really soon.

If you're stressing about it I would definitely go take a test. The worst that will happen is you'll waste a few bucks. Go for EPT, they're the only one that I trust. I had multiple negative tests with this pregnancy and EPT is the only one that came up positive, even two weeks after my missed period. Funny, huh? All the generics said negative. Even after I got a positive EPT, I still had others testing negative days later. I went through A LOT of pregnancy tests with this one. I was so sure I was pregnant that I just couldn't believe the negatives. I guess I was right. :)

Good luck!

      Royal Caribbean Only, Please

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.
