Thanks guys. This made me feel so much better.
I am over the moon to be pregnant but today after taking the clear blue test and reading PREGNANT everything seemed so real. I become so nervous and anxious. Then I felt guilty for feeling that way!
I love my sleep too so don't worry I will try get as much as possible while I can! Hopefully baby will be like Mummy and Daddy and love his sleep too!
Did you guys also know what sex you were having straight off the bat? A gut feeling? Or where you wrong. Totally convinced a baby boy!
Congratulations on your bfp
great feeling isn't it?!
I have a couple of tips!
Read "what to expect when you're expecting" the actual book version, easier to navigate than the kindle download. I learned so much and it helped me whenever I was worried.
Attend an ante natal class if you can, it gave me a good few tips and understood the labour process (still painful but not scary).
Don't google symptoms or miscarriage, it'll scare you, ask your midwife or doctor if you have any worries. It's normal to worry about miscarriage in the first 12 weeks, but don't dwell on other people's experiences, every pregnancy is different.
It's normal to bleed a little! Sometimes your cervix will become irritated and you may bleed, its common after sex sometimes. If you have severe cramping or heavy bleeding then seek help.
In your final 8 weeks, drink raspberry leaf tea (there is more about it in the third tri forum) but its a natural toner for your uterus. Worked for me 5 pushes and she was out
Use this forum, lots of lovely ladies to help you if you have any questions.
Good luck, relax, eat well, take a pre natal vitamin supplement and yes, enjoy your sleep, you'll have somewhat less when little one arrives.
Oh and I was convinced I was having a boy, had a "feeling" and out SHE popped! My beautiful girl
