First Time Mother Posted: 08-16-05 09:21am


Hi, I am excited that I stumbled upon this website. This is our first child, I am six months pregnant and it's a girl!! My husband who is 29, and i, 25 are very excited to welcome our baby girl. We already have her room set up as far as crib, dresser, and rocker. We are so excited. I am very lucky to have a wonderful husband who is going to make a great father. This was an uplanned pregnancy, but it was meant to be. I am due in december which by then I will have a bachelors and my husband will complete his masters in march of 2006. We're very blessed and excited! :)

I'm glad to see you're so happy about this, even though it was unplanned. I'm also glad to see that you are getting prepared. So many parents don't understand how important that is when bringing a child into this world. We don't have any children yet, but we've only been married for two weeks. But we look forward to having kids in a year or so.

Hi and thank you for the congrats! I am very nervous about giving birth, since this is our first. Yes, the grandparents are excited! You know, I strongly believe this pregnancy was meant to be. Everything worked out just in the nick of time. It truly is a blessing to have children. I just want to be the best parent I can be!

Congratulations! I am sure you both will be great parents! Enjoy your sleep now, later on when the hormones start kicking in and your back and feet are hurting, their is no such thing as good sleep, start having your husband do massages now. Keep us posted on how things are going with you and yours.

Hi sandy allen and first_time_mum, sandy, it's so funny how you mentioned not getting a good night's sleep and having my husband start massages. Last night, my back was really hurting and he massaged me for about 15 minutes. Bless his heart. I had to use a heating pad which helped- thank god! As far as good night's sleep, already at 26 weeks, it's difficult. I keep tossing and turning. They say you're supposed to sleep on your left side so that you don't compress the blood vessel that connects to the placenta and blood supply, so I keep waking up to turn over to my left side. (i like to sleep on my right side.) but thank you for the sincere congrats! First_time_mum, that's wonderful- we are both six months pregnant! Congratulations. Are you as nervous and excited as I am? Do you know the sex of your baby? I am so scared about the birthing process. I worry about having to have a c-section as well. Take care and good luck!!
