How Does Sex Affect Pregnancy?
A healthy sex life can add comfort and relieve stress during pregnancy. Still, some parents-to-be worry about continuing with their sex lives during the woman’s pregnancy. Some worry that it could, perhaps, harm a fetus. Others wonder when sex should cease. Most want to know which sex acts are okay during pregnancy. To help answer those questions, consider the mother’s health, the progress of the pregnancy and the feelings of both partners.
Pregnancy at 27 Weeks
As you probably know by now, your 40-week pregnancy is split into three trimesters and organized by weeks in gestational age, which is calculated to be 2 weeks older than fetal age. Depending on how you count it, the 27th week of pregnancy (gestational) falls either at the end of the second trimester or the beginning of the third trimester. At this time, you and your baby are gearing up for the final, and in some ways most challenging, months of pregnancy.
How Accurate Are Home Pregnancy Tests?
Available over-the-counter at drugstores, home pregnancy tests are cheap, easy, quick tests that tell you whether or not you are pregnant by detecting the presence of the pregnancy hormone, hCG, in your urine. You should always check with your doctor if you get a positive result on a home pregnancy test. Your doctor can confirm whether or not you are pregnant with a blood test and/or a pelvic exam, and start you on a course of prenatal care to assure a healthy pregnancy. Even a negative result on a home pregnancy test is a heads-up to call your doctor to look for possible medical reasons for your missed period(s).
Home Decorating Themes Husbands Will Love
Not all husbands are the same, but when it comes to decorating, you can be sure of one thing: as long as he has his own chair and a clear view of the big-screen television, he will be happy. In any home decorating theme consider investing in a large-screen television that can be mounted on the wall, out of reach of the kids. Husbands also appreciate when rooms are clutter-free and the floor is not a toy obstacle course. Invest in multi-use furniture including benches which can be used to store toys and as extra seating. Storage ottomans and tables with space for storage bins can also help coral toys and games.
