Pregnancy Questions
Posted: 09-03-03 15:44pm

Ok so i'm new to this whole pregnancy thing and just have a few questions and would love to get some responds...

1)what do you do when the prenatal vit. Make you constipated?

2)is it normal to have this kinda..Crampy stomach sometimes?

3)when do you start to show?

4)is anyone else really nervous about having a miscarriage in the critical period?


I'm sure i'll think of more questions but if anyone would like to help me on these i'd love to hear the responses. Thanks y'all Laughing

Hello!

I havent had a baby yet, but I learned alot of everything from my 2 sisters pregnancues and watching alot of the discover chanel! Well cramps can occur during pregnancy so its ok to have them, but if they get too bad then see your doctor. All women show at different times. Some women 3, 4 or 5 months. Or like my sisters, alma started to show at 7 months (barely) and andrea was showing at 8 months!! She blew up like overnight in that month!!! Alot of prenatal vitamins contain a stool softener so that you do not get consapated. Check what kinds you are taking. Im sure every mother is nrevous that they have no problems during pregnancy so im sure its ok to feel that way. Good luck! Keep in touch!

Hi there!! Here are my thoughts on your questions below. I am new to this also so hope I can put your mind at ease a little.
1. Vitamins are the worst, unfortunately I drank prune juice and that
helped a little bit, a lot of water too!!
2. Totally normal to feel cramps, it is supposedly the uterus expanding . I had them for a few weeks!
3. Nothing yet and I am just 8 weeks!! Not sure...
4. I am totally totally nervous also, just hope for the best! Our chances of not having one are way better than it happening.....This is my first time too and it is a very scary time in my life! I have just started feeling morning sickness etc this week. Ugh!!!

Few questions for this new time

Perla- thanks for writing as well. If you want to keep in touch and share thoughts i'd love to. Let me know and maybe we can exchange email addresses. I'm only about 4 weeks so you're a little advanced but i'm sure we can still share the same thoughts. Let me know. Laughing
