I thought i would post in here because i know you are all lovely compassionate ladies. I am happy im pregnant & this is a tried for / wanted baby. But i am feeling so down the last few days. before i got preg i was 1/2 marathon training and doing a very intense HIIT programme. I had lovely ab muscles appearing & my body was getting toned & fit. ( i also had just lost 17lb a lot for my small 5ft2 frame) In the last 3/4weeks i have not been able to keep up my regime , first i was really ill then i also got very early morning sickness & i knw we had caught from 4dpo. Then i got my bfp at 11dpo . I was so ill at first then i realised that my energy/exercise regime was very intense so lowered it to stationary bike , some ball work & free weights for my shoulders & arms. Anyway i am sitting at the same weight kn the scales but my body has already changed significantly. My breasts are large & sore , my belly feels soft & bloated & my muscles are already feeling soft and i just feela bit fat & frumpy. . . . I didnt feel like this with my other two and i just dont understand why iam feeling so low and icky about my preggo body ..... Sorry ladies i just needed to talk and share with a group of women how i am feeling . my husband doesnt really get it. He tried his best to cheer me up but called me " a little bit more padded!" i know my hormones are making me sensitive but that really hurt. I have not been binge eating and have only jndulged myself a few times with treats so i know its not diet .... anyway . pity party over .....

I think it's normal. I felt very distant and down at first, but now I am coming around! If you're in good shape now, you'll bounce back quickly after baby!! I will keep you in my prayers. Just think how you can get a jogging stroller and take baby for runs with you!!!

Hello ladies hope u r all well. todays not been a good day so far been spending most of it crying.

its a bit of a strange one and i no im 32 and shud stand up for myself but i find it so hard. its my parents they do not no i am pregnant yet and im comp dreading telling them. my parents very controling and have huge power over me and i find them hard to talk to because in there eyes ive been nothing but a comp failure most my life. they have never been happy about my pregnancies even the one i m/c they didnt show much sympethy. they do not no about my other 2 m/c because they happened early and i new they wud go mad because i got pregnant. they went mental wen i ahd my last son and didnt speak to me for months. anyway i went out with my mum yesterday and as much as i tried holding my tummy in my mum noticed but i comp denied it and said i was bloated from constipation, she believed me but then went comp on one saying i dare not ever get pregnant again and that my dad wud never forgive my OH and also never speak to me again, and then she started saying he shud have the op and i shud have my tubes tied. and the while she was goin on theres me knowing fall well i am pregnant and i cud feel all of me crumble into terror. my parents r very negative people and now im just in total fear about telling them our news, i was hoping i cud keep it from them till after my 20 wk scan but im already showing alot.
so not only have i got to worry about my controlling parents i also have to worry about my high risk pregnancy, i dont know if there is any prey that may b able to help with this but im sure hoping one of u ladies no one. i just feel so eaten up with worry

 

[future hopes]

i really dont have anybody to talk to about this my OH just says i shud stand up for myself and not b bothered wat my parents think and if they choose to disown me then its there problem not ours, but i really dont want to lose my parents i want them to b part of this and to b happy for me. but i know they wont es as i only had a liver transplant 17 months ago. i really dont know wat to do. i just dont want to feel scered about telling them, but i know im gonna have to sooner or later.

i c this baby as a gift from god but they wont c it like that there just gonna b really really angry and go mad at me and not speak to me to them it will just seem like another mistake ive made and another failure

 

[melenarz]

Future hopes..... Keeping you in my prayers. This is your baby and your right..... A gift from God..... God will see you through, and we are here to listen and pray....

:Hug:

really sorry you are having to go through this. I was worried about telling my parents and others about this baby to because after losing my last son at 22 weeks they really did not want me to go through it again. I really worried about telling people and me and my husband both said we was not going to tell anyone until I was showing and couldn't hide it any longer. Well that didn't last a weekend and we had told all our close family and they took it way better than we both expected. My dad (I am a daddy's girl) was happy for me he just told me that he wanted me and the baby to be okay this time. I will be praying for you but I couldn't imagine any parent disowning their child. I am sure they just love you so much and worry about your health but they will love this baby and God will see you through this.

Dear Lord I come to you tonight asking that you will please bless my sister future hopes with a healthy safe pregnancy and a safe birth. I pray that you will soften her parents hearts as only you can Lord that they will support and accept this pregnancy. Please Lord give her the strength and courage to tell her parents when the time is right. I thank you Lord for all your blessing and all the wonderful blessing we have seen on this board. Thank you for being with us all and look over all our little babies growing and I pray we all have a safe healthy pregnancy and delivery. I thank you in Jesus name I pray Amen

I have had a full day today. Been gone since 9 this morning and just got home about 10 tonight. Trying to get the kids school shopping done. My husband's father always likes to take us school shopping which is a blessing and they live a hour and a half away. I can say I am all shopped out but the kids got alot of clothes and are happy about school starting back. My little girl who doesn't start school for another year also got tons of clothes and shoes ( the grandparents really spoil her because she is the only girl ) Well ladies hope you all have a great night I think I will be off to bed soon

I wish there were more companies out there like Chick-fil-a, built on Christian principles, closed on Sunday, etc. We will be going there on the 1st for sure (already eat there at least every week during pregnancy anyway!).

I'm not sure if its just me or if its hormone overload, but I'm having rough day. My mom called me today and she started comparing my pregnancy to my sister in law, who is due in a few weeks. She starts saying how Allison hasn't complained about anything, it hasust been so wonderful for her! Then she asks how I feel. I say fine other than I've been pretty nauseous the last few nights after dinner.....my mother replies that I just need to keep it to.myself and not complain because no k e wants to hear it. I wanted so bad to scream back at her that she asked me how I felt I wasn't complaining about anything. I'm just not going to say anything to her anymore about anything.I have people who care and ask how I feel and want to be a part of this wonderful time, so I've decided its her loss.....
But o question if that's right? I feel it is because I need to be healthy and happy for my baby.....but the.again...... I just need to not worry, its just so hard....

I remember this song from church when I was little, I thought I'd hare the words with you,I've been singing it a lot lately:
I cast all my cares upon you. I lay all of my burdens, down at your feet; and anytime, I don't know what to do, I will cast all of my cares upon you.....

Dear heavenly father.....give me, and these wonderful ladies, the strength to turn to you in our times or worry and trial. To know your feet is the best place we could put our burdens and that in fact, that is what you want us to do. Remind us that no matter what we might face in our lives from day to day that we are never alone, you are always beside us helping through and guiding us on your path. Help us to know we are always loved by you. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.

Beautiful song and beautiful prayer. When are you going back for your repeat ultrasound?

Wow you are a strong chick, I couldn't imagine my hubby being gone for that long, especially with a baby at home and another one on the way! My DH was working out of town last summer for only 3 months and coming home weekends and it was pure agony for me with no babies!! Prayers go out to you darling, and you know we're all here for you!!

[melenarz]

Ladies, if I could ask you to please pray for my baby and me. I have had some very, very light pink/tan spotting today. (tmi here but I had a pelvic on Tuesday, internal us Friday and intercourse Saturday). I have had several people reassure me that it is probably just some irritation, possibly implantation (?????) bleeding, and I am not cramping (other than gas) but it is still causing a lot of worry and fear for me. I've also been awake since 4:30 this morning, drove 2 hours to Pittsburgh and started a new job today......
I'm praying everything is ok with our little sweet pea......

 

[runnergrl]

you got it!

 

[MsTX]

Hey ladies! I had another us today and things are coming along well! Our baby looks more like a little gummy bear now and less like a little blob. Heartrate was 171 and they said everything looks great!

Also, Its been a couple days since I posted, but I am keeping everyone in my prayers and hoping the best for everyone. I look forward to all the updates. Thank you also for the prayers you have said for me, they seem to be working wonderfully! Our God is good.

thats great! why did you have another ultrasound again so soon?

 

[runnergrl]

I got my results back today from my HcG and progesterone tests. HcG looked good friday and by today, they had gone up significantly, but not doubled. My progesterone seems to be somewhat of an issue (very low) so my doctor wants me to take a suppository supplement. Please pray this solves the problem and by my 7+5 ultrasound, we find this baby with a beautiful heartbeat!
