Pregnancy
by ElvisHuang

Question by skybrst7: First pregnancy I had a delivered early what are my chances for the second pregnancy?

I had to deliver my first baby @ 34 wks on hospital bedrest. How likely will I have to do this again with my second pregancy? Also since I delivered a healthy baby the first time, is there a chance I'll miscarry this time or will I likely have another healthy pregnancy?




Best answer:

Answer by Real Life has No Soundtrack
With my first, my son was born 3 weeks early. With my second, I went 2 days over my due date and then begged for an induction.
Every pregnancy is different, unless there is a problem with you physically that caused your first to be born early, for example if you have an incompetent cervix.
There is always a chance for miscarriage, but again, unless you have some physical problem that makes you prone to miscarriage, the chance for miscarrying isn't any greater this time than any other time.
It's normal to freak out and stress! Just remember every pregnancy is different, and take good care of yourself. That's all you can do.

Boy Detectives: Essays on the Hardy Boys and Others





Much has been written about the girl sleuth in fiction, a feminist figure embodying all the potential wit and drive of girlhood. Her male counterpart, however, has received much less critical attention despite his popularity in the wider culture. This collection of eleven essays examines the boy detective and his genre from a number of critical perspectives, addressing the issues of these young characters, heirs to the patriarchy yet still concerned with first crushes and soda shop romances. Series explored include the Hardy Boys, Tow Swift, the Three Investigators, Christopher Cool and Tim Murphy, as well as works by Astrid Lindgren, Mark Haddon, and Joe Meno.

The Manny Diaries





"I laughed, then cried then laughed again... and I discovered a new author who is definitely on my to-get-now list. If Kilt Kilpatrick's other books contain even half the fun yet sweet and totally engaging characters along with a story that is all heart and a beautiful romance, then I will be a very happy reader." --Dark Diva Reviews (5 "delightful divas") "In my opinion, this author is an exceptional writer-intelligent, humorous, and skillful. With or without the erotic content, his work would be entertaining. (The sex scenes were more of an added bonus.) I thoroughly enjoyed this first novel and have my fingers crossed for many more in the future." --Michelle n Jeff Reviews Young art student Evan Ross falls out of the closet and into the fire when an unexpected sexual encounter with a friend changes his life forever. His rocky - and surprisingly hot - search for true love and a real job (not necessarily in that order) takes him on a series of romantic adventures and misadventures, from the lofty hills to the seedy streets of San Francisco. When he lands a job as a male nanny for a precocious 8-year old, his career and romance paths start to converge - and he finds himself falling for a dead-ringer of his dream man, Clive Owen. The only problem? It's the girl's straight father. Can he land his dream job and his dream man? THE MANNY DIARIES is sexy, warm and hilarious novel with a supporting cast of quirky, lovable characters, a fun pace, and a true-to-life setting.

Great Modern Structures: 100 Years of Engineering Genius





People still speak of the Seven Wonders of the World, even though only one of them (the Pyramids) still stands. But the modern world offers architectural and engineering wonders that put ancient efforts to shame. This is a technically detailed compendium of more than 70 of them, from the Millau Viaduct in France (supported by concrete columns taller than the Eiffel Tower) to the 2.5-mile-long Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan. It is a celebration of the superlative-the tallest, widest, and most spectacular feats of modern engineering and architecture.
