    To add to Mrs_America if you are do they know your prego? And if you don't do it do you loose your job? I wouldn't worry about the bouncing unless there doin like 80 but the cold. Your immune system is suppressed enough don't at 15 degree weather to it
  • Yes I'm in the army and yes they kno I'm pregnant well my worry was because now I'm headed to the hospital I'm having sever cramps in my lower stomach:( and I'm worried its my first baby and I don't want to do anything to mess it up:(

  • I agree with mama_kat. Good luck and drink plenty of water.
  • I was four months prego with my first and the same thing happened to me... severe cramps after four hours in the car. My doctor told me that if I must take a long drive to stop every hour to walk around and drink some water.
    Not sure why the army would make you do this trip? I was in the navy and got prego in italy while on DET. They had me on the next flight home in our next port because they didn't have the facilities to take care of me if something would go wrong. It sucks when the men don't get it in certain situations in the military. I've even experienced some of the women being that way. My best advice is to stick up for yourself and put out of your head the people who want to see you fail. Cause they're out there:) There ARE the people that will see you for what your worth and give you a pat on the back for doing your job. They're smiles and acknowledgment for you make the assholes more tolerable. I feel you. Just stay strong in the bundle of men you're in:)
  • Tell ur dr the situation and see if she could write something to ur co
  • Good idea kritten:)
  • Thanks for the help but my commander.....boss is a bitch I have a female and it sucks but I went to the hopsital and found out that I have a uti a yeast infection and I'm producing to many white blood cells so now I'm on bed rest but thank u for the help....
  • You Should be on a pregnancy profile and your unit shouldn't even expect that of you. take it up with plt sgt or higher if needed
  • Yaaayyyy for bed rest! They can't touch that:) they put me on half days when I got to my third trimester
  • Yeah bed rest is nice but it sucks when there's no tv or anything to do but stare at walls lol and yeah they shouldn't expect me to but there's to many people in sp there trying to get me to get out last month they caused a girl to have a miscarge because they made here to her pt test so yeah. That's the army for u it sicks! N they treat you like shit and don't care when it comes to being a female and pregnant but thanks
