Pregnant Posted: 10-01-03 13:05pm
Hi all - well umm.. Im new here and i've
only read a few messages on here so far so
im just gonna tell ya my story and
hopefully someone will write back with
some advice. First off im 19 and my
fiance is 21 we're now 2 months pregnant.
It wasn't planned but well we've been
blessed with the baby and we're going to
keep it. Scott (my fiance) has a full
time job and we'll be well off and able to
provide for the baby, im just wondering
what to expect during pregnancy, and I
figured someone on here would know.
We've been considering having a child
since I was 17 because his parents so
desperatley wanted grandchildren, they
even offered to keep the baby if I had one
so that I could continue school. But we
decided to wait awhile. Anywho any advice
on how to deal with "morning sickness"...
Or all day sickness I think it should be
called!! And when i'll start to show
simple things like that I know next to
nothing. Thanks ~melissa

Hello, congratulations!!!
Well keep in mind not all women get the
sickness. Im not pregnant but I have
gotten alot of nausea before! What I do
is get something sweet that can take the
taste or smell away. I hate tuna and my
mom will make it and the can just about
makes my puke! But I go and get a
spoonfull of ice cream leave the kitchen.
It helps so much. Another girl said
mints, crackers, things like that. My
sister was pregnant and I was there for
her through the whole thing, even
delivery. So I always gave her a massage
ever evening. We heard it helps her. I
would sing to the baby and read her a
book. It looked funny reading to her
stomach but I did it anyways. Walk every
day!!! It helps alot, alot for the labor!
Makes it easier. Eat healthy, take your
prenatal vitamins everday. Snack on
fruits and veggies and stuff like that.
Dont strain yourself too much physically.
Good luck, god bless!
You can see my neice right there in the
picture, both of them!

Hi melissa,
lol, yeah it should be called anytime
sickness shouldn't it. I'm exactly 2
months pregnant aslo. Being your first
child you probably won't start to show
until 3 - 4 months depending on you and
your body, everyone is completely
different. With my first pregnancy I
didn't show until 4 months, but the doctor
is saying with your second you will show a
lot more quickly than the first. What
symptoms are you going through at the
moment ? Right now I think the worst for
me is running to the toilet every hour,
and I was just saying to the other girls
before I seem to be having a lot of
trouble with dandruff.
Regards,
.::suzy::.

Oh my gosh that is so exciting!!!! They
gave you a house!!!? I would love for
someone to give me and jose a house!!! Oh
that is so great!!! Thats good news!!!
That saves so much money!!! Oh gosh id be
running crazy telling everyone that I got
a house!!!! Congrats!!!!
And it doesnt sound weird to have more
than one house. I know people out here
(working in property management for
homeowners) that alot of people own up to
4 homes! Boy they make some money! Or
people buy homes for their parents.
Nothing new so its not wierd!
