First ultra sound.. Guessing you are around 8 weeks? I dunno thats when I got my first one.. At the ultrasound all is good they just do some pic mesauring... And then show u everything you'll getta see the little heart beat and the shape of the baby its soooo precious... Smile but word of adivce they tell you to like drink 32 fluid oz liek b4 the appt but make sure some of that is a little sugar or caffeine like a slurpee you'll get a better picture (my doc hinted that to me) Smile and I had perfect 8 week pix Smile how old are you? Helping you keep the baby? Liek health wise? Or you think someone is going to keep you from keeping the baby? You should agin an everage of 10 pounds every 3 motnhs so track your weight... Eat right its a wives tale that pregnant woman can eat anything you need to keep your little one healthy and not on too many fatty foods Smile drink lotssss of water and if you like milk try for atleast about 2 cups a day (i personally cant stand milk so I find substitutes) try walking about 3 times a week and getting enough sleep... Your boobs will hurt but its enviteeable... Wear a bra always even to bed trust me it will help and invest in some cocoa butter lotion and apply as much as possible on your tummy hips lower back theighs and arms to prevent stretch marks Smile dress comfy and dont let too many things stress you out! Take mini cat naps..If possible and if u work on ur feet all day try asking for a stool... When ur pants start feeling tight pleasssseeeee upsize or change types.. Lay off the caffeine as much as possible, read up on mommy books, and just be happy... Steer clear of smokersss!!!!

Does that help at all? Smile

:d thanks guys!!! My pants are already getting tight!! I was in the hospital for 3 days becuz they thought it was my appendix. Come to find out I had a cyst on my overy that had burst. My numbers were only at 116 on wed. They checked them again on friday and they were up to 500. I thought I had lost it but then on monday they were 1539!! So i'm excited this is going to be my miricle pulling thru everything. Altho I can tell he/she is going to be a hand full becuz of all this too lol. I will let everyone know tomorrow what happens. Thank you jessa!!! Wish me luck :p
