Well ladies I found out I am with child
this week and I am happy. I haven't
decided to tell anyone as yet until I am
for sure. I took the hpt and I called the
doctor and they told me I should wait
until the 10 week to make an apt.
Anyway I am happy of the news I got this
week, a bit scared and worried but very
happy.
This is my first so the joy is inside
jumping up and down while the outside is
calm so people would not pick up as yet.
any mothers out there who wants to give
their opinions on what to expect and what
ishould do until.
Thanks

Take prenatals! That is something you
should start right away.
Tell us something about you.How old are

Hi sue. Congrats on the wonderful news.
I am almost 10 weeks along and haven't
really experienced the mood swings yet.
I have had some major morning sickness
though. There for a few days I thought I
was dying!!!! It's a little better
today, hope it stays that way.

Hi sue (congrats by the way!),
the emotions are completely normal. The
thing to look out for the most is the
morning sickness. I will be 16 weeks on
monday, and I had morning sickness from
weeks 6-14. I didn't throw up every day,
but I did feel like crap every day. If
the prenatal vitamins are too much for you
(they can cause nausea and diarrhea), you
can take the flinstones multi-vitamins (my
doctor suggested it).
Congrats again!

if you decide to go this route, don't
forget to supplement with folic
acid....The flintstone vitamins don't have
enough need, I also reember someone else
mentioning iron as well.
Congratulations sue!

Thanks guys!!!!
I have not experience the sickness yet. I
heard ppl don't always exp. It. I hope
I am one of those , lol.
The prenatals are fine, but I do feel a
little cramp pains. Not too big but more
like gas moving lol. The farting signs
has begun.
No but strange thing is I feel I should
eat but I feel full sometimes.
I am having these strange feelings my baby
is crying because I am not eating enough
sound strange?
It is so scary preparing to be a mother.
I am only 4 weeks according to the
babycenter.Com chart. But technically I
am around 2 weeks.
Should I be feeling this way.
I took a home test and positive of course,
but when I called to see the doctor and I
told them what took place the nurse told
me I should wait until I am 10 weeks to
make an appt.
Why is that?

Hi congrats! We are about the same! I am
slightly over 4 weeks!
My dr won't make an appt until 8-10 weeks
along. I think because they can hear the
heartbeat then. I am going this monday
though for a blood hormone level test to
try an put my mind at ease that everything
is ok!
I had to ask for it though.
I get those little crampy type things too,
nothing real bad and not all the time
though. And my nipples already are very
sensitive! I brush my shirt against them
and I am like woah!
So I guess that is a good sign for me...
I feel more hungry than usual but that
might just be my mind making me think that
I need to be!
