Pregnant!

well last monday i took a pregnancy test
and it turns out im pregnant!
my boyfriend and i were'nt trying to get
pregnant, but it happened and we're still
thrilled and excited about it.
We have a lot of support from his side of
the family, from his brother,
sister-in-law, and their parents. Im so
glad i have his sister-in-law (Liz) to
talk to about all this, she's a nurse and
has two kids and has been giving me advice
here and there about what i should be
eating, pre-natal vitamins, she's helping
me find a family doctor, and took me to
one of hers to get everything checked out
and to get a blood test to confirm my
pregnancy.
I've been living a much healthier life
style not only for my baby but for myself
aswell, and i had a lot of help from my
boyfriend to get where i am today.
Im 5 weeks pregnant now, i feel really
good, some back pains here and there and
holy hell are my breasts sore! lol im
pretty excited about all this. Im ready to
take on such a big responsibility raising
a baby, im also a little scared wondering
if i will be a good mother. But my
boyfriend has been supporting me and will
be here every step of the way.

Good luck! It's great you have a health
professional you can turn to so easily. I
know what you mean about the sore breasts,
this time last years i was arounf 13weeks
and the cold air hurt so much. When i went
out i used to wrap a scarf around my chest
and then put a coat on over to try and
stop the cold gettign to my breasts!

Most pregnant women get turned on or off
to certain foods. One sure sign of
pregnancy for me is a total and complete
aversion to olive oil and scrambled eggs.
The scent of either is enough to make me
lose my stomach on the spot. I also had
constant cravings for the potato soup a
local restaurant had once a week, and
scalloped potatoes.
I never had sore breasts, though. They
just kept getting bigger, lol!
Most women get a bit of sickness at
implantation, due to the fluctuation in
hormones (the pregnancy quickly and
forcibly regulates your hormones so your
body won't attack the embryo as a foreign
body). It's usually ignored because it can
be so mild.

I hope everything works out for you.
Just surious, though, why would you say
you weren't trying to get pregnant?
"my boyfriend and i were'nt trying to get
pregnant, but it happened and we're still
thrilled and excited about it. "
I just read some of your previous threads
and the posts therein, and you were even
getting information about ovulation
prediction kits. I'm sure I could have
misunderstood something, so that's why I'm
asking.
Are you going to tell your parents? I
hope that goes ok, if you do tell them.

Good for you, I'm glad you are taking good
care of yourself. How's the family and bf
taking the news? Maybe you can reconcile
with your mom now.

my boyfriends family is very supportive
about the pregnancy, big greek family lots
of love and suport. my boyfriend is
excited too, hes gonna be by my side
through it all.
As for my side of the family, my mom and i
are still not on good terms, i haven't
told them about my pregnancy yet cuz i
dont want to get too stressed out right
now cuz its still early in my pregnancy.
I've talked to my sister in law about it
though, and shes gonna come with me when i
tell my mom, she also said maybe now
things will get a little better with my
mom with a baby coming. but only time will
tell that.

Well that's hopeful, at least.
How long has it been since you were living
at home? I have a daughter and I cannot
even imagine being apart like you two are.
Her heart must be breaking. Is she still
married to your dad? If so, what does he
think of you not living at home with them?

well i got kicked out in...August, i think
the day after my birthday...
and its now december so...about 5 months?
ya 5 months. Oh sweety her hearts not
breaking. Not even a week after she kicked
me out, she threw all my things out,
re-paintd my room and put my brothers
things in my old room, moved my younger
brother in to my other brothers old room
and made my younger brothers room the
wreck room. Shes moved on, dont worry.
My parents are divorced, he thought it
would be the best thing for me in a way
cuz my mom is a little on the crazy side.
However hes not to keen on who im living
with now, but for our defence may i jsut
say that he is very responsible,
supportive, and a wonderful guy to be
with.

Your bf does sound great. Your mom sounds
heartless. How far away is your dad?

not too far, like if he weren't so
stubborn and would actually listen or even
talk to me i'd go see him every now and
then when he wanted to see me...but thats
not the case.
But im cool with it, i mean i have a new
family who loves me and supports me and i
get along with them really well, their
happy and im happy so thats all that
matters.

Good. You sound like a strong person.
I'm sorry you were saddled with less than
ideal parents, though.

its cool, ive come to terms with the
saying "everything happens for a reason"
maybe this was just the way things were
supposed to be, i mean i wish they were
different with my parents but beggers cant
be choosers right? lol
the way i look at it is im happy, my bf
-fiance- is happy, our family is happy,
mine will just have to get over what ever
grudge their holding on to and move on.
