Alaska was still not a state in the late 40's, so he was given (as all takers were) 600 acres of land for free if he promised to homestead it. He sent word back to his homeland of Switzerland, where many friends expressed wanting to move, that he had found a good piece of land.
Yes | No Thank you! It's very possible to be pregnant have your period. I had a normal period just before I found out that I was pregnant. My period ended on a Monday. I had symptoms right after it ended. Nausea, dizziness, breast tenderness, headaches, bloating, food cravings.
If you have missed one or more periods, the most likely reason is that you have a normal pregnancy. However, the fact that you may experience normal pregnancy symptoms, such as nausea, painful breasts or a swollen abdomen but no bleeding or pain, does not completely rule out an ectopic pregnancy, although this is rare.
