Any First Time Mom's Due In July?

[chihuahuamom]

Hi Ladies!

I'm new to this forum as well as being a new mom. When I found out I was pregnant I was excited, scared, and nervous, I had a hard time believing that I am actually pregnant...and for some reason it still has yet to really sink in According to my doctor, I'm due on July 4th, but I have my first prenatal appointment tomorrow and I really don't know what to expect so it's making me a bit anxious

My husband and I weren't trying to get pregnant...it just kinda happened. We were talking about trying come January, but we are really excited nonetheless.

A little bit about me: I'm 30 and my husband is 40 and we've been married for almost 2 1/2 years. We don't have any children, but knew that we wanted to have a family. For now, our baby is our Chihuahua whose name is Elvis. Health wise, the only problems I have are hypothyroidism and I'm slightly overweight, however before getting pregnant I've lost 50 lbs.

Pregnancy symptoms that I have had so far are headaches (which I had very early on), cramping, and most recently some fluttering, nausea, no appetite, slight acne, sore nipples, I'm constantly thirsty, I have a hard time sleeping and I did have some very light implantation bleeding for 5 days. One symptom I have not had is fatigue...I actually have more energy now than I have previously which I think is extremely odd

I would love to meet other mothers that are due in July or around the same time as I am...We have a long road ahead of us and it would be great to know that someone else is there to talk to for support.

Congratuappointment !!
And Hi, I'm a first timer too and due 9th July... It feels like ages away!

Me and the OH had only started trying the month we got pregnant and I don't get to see the midwife till I'm 9 weeks so I don't think it's sunk in for us yet either!

I've had cramps since 2 days before I would have been due on but they have been a lot better the last 2 days, Extremely sensitive nipples and the odd sick feeling. Im not hungry at all, infact theres nothing I fancy to eat but I find if I start eating I'm ok!

I've also been waking up in the night n im wide awake (not like me at all, I live my sleep) and I've had so much energy at work that I can't concentrate but at about 8 I'm ready for bed!

Have u told any family or friends yet?
How did ur appointment go?

Hiya! I'm a first-timer due July 11th, I had a MC in August 2012 at 10 weeks, and this is my first BFP since. I got my BFP yesterday and I'm so excited!
