hey,how is it going so far?

nikky0907 · Feb 23rd, 2008, 10:34 AM

hey guys,I'm kinda new,I found out a week ago that I'm pregnant and I just decide that I'm keeping it...

So,since I have no idea about pregnancies I would love to hear how your first 3 months are going,how you've been feeling,have you had any cravings etc.
Because I have sickness all day long,there is not a minute in my day when I'm not feeling sick,or dizzy and I'm tired...How do you guys deal with it?
Are there any ways to aleviate this?

Generally, I am not a big eater and could go all day without eating. When pregnant, I wake up feeling hungry. That's when I know I am pregnant.

The only symptoms I've had with this one and my other pregnancies are tiredness and hunger. I've never had morning sickness.

I've also never had any cravings in each pregnancy, but just more food aversions.

Symptoms vary with each person.

I've read your story and congratulations on keeping your baby

The rewards of a child far outweigh anything!

Hope you feel better soon and the nasty morning sickness goes away!

congrats and welcome to first trimester!!!
Well I have suffered with the usual symptoms of nausea, sickness, exhaustion etc.
I also had a bit of a scare not so long ago as i was spotting but everything turned out to be fine.
At the moment i'm constantly hungry and craving things that are bad for you eg sausage rolls, crisps, chips, cheese lol! My sickness is gettin better now as im well into the 1st trimester but i found eating little and often helps, try crackers, ginger biscuits!
Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 mnths

Congratulations on your pregnancy !!

Everyone reacts differently to pregnancy. Some get sickness, some not. Some could sleep for 24 hours straight, and others fell full of energy and wide awake !! There is no set way that you should feel in pregnancy.

Just take it all as it comes. And again, everyone seems to have different remedies for their symptoms. Just remember that symptoms indicate lots of hormones, and they are what support your pregnancy, so, in a way, they're good. ( Although, it doesn't feel that way with your head down the bowl ) !!

If you have any serious concerns though, such as really bad pain, and/ or bleeding, then you need to seek medical advice. But crampy feelings, and even the occasional sharp twinges, are part and parcel of pregnancy.

Best thing is to follow your instincts, they are normally right !!

And of course, come in here, and shout, rant, cry, laugh, and tell it all... somebody else has already been there, and done that, and this forum is the best for easing ones mind about all the wonderful joys of pregnancy.

Have you told your parents yet?

nikky0907 · Feb 23rd, 2008, 10:56 AM

no,they are going to be the last people I tell,If I get around to see them in the first place...My relationship with my parents is not the one I want to have with my kid...I know it sounds terrible but they really won't be understanding and sweet.

I am sorry. I hope all goes well and that they become accepting!
