is this for youre first prenatal appointment?

Well at my first appointment I asked:

When the risk of misscarrige decreases

If there was anything he could give me for nausea

What week could we know the sex

What over the counter medicine could I take

Did I need to take folic acid

When the first ultrasound would be

I asked alot of things though, I can't remember everything. It's strange I was so excited to be there I forgot half the questions I had been dying to ask him. You might wanna make a list and take it with you. I think that's what I'm gonna do this time. Congrats on the pregnancy!

It might be a good idea to get some books from the library about pregnancy. I loved reading about my baby!

Thank you so much! And yes this is my first appointment. We are overjoyed! I've been looking up stuff like crazy! But I find myself wanting to look at baby clothes and maternity clothes more often than I do research...I really need to get focused on my body and on learning how it's going to change and about the baby and such...which I plan to do after I post this! Haha. Thank you girls! You've been so supportive. I really apprieciate it. You don't even know.

hey you may not even need maternaty clothes!!! im 30 weeks along and i dont have any maternaty clothes yet lol
i can still fit my old clothes!!!!!

lol! That's a relief! But I want to show off my belly sooo bad! haha! When I get about 28 weeks whether it's sticking out or not I'm gonna try to push it out as far as I can! Haha...that sounds so crazy! But I'm just so thrilled! I found the neatest site about explaining the trimesters and stuff and it had pictures and...wow...to think...the baby is only the size of a grape in the first trimester! How insane! Sooo tiny!!!

-Turtle-

yep its still very tiny the first trimester
im 30 weeks and right now kristen is probably about 3.5/4 pounds
so even shes still tiny lol

i know i wanted to show my tummy off too but guess what? im only 112 pounds!!!!!! ive only gained 12 lbs so far

What site? I'm always looking for good pregnancy sites.

You're like me, I can't wait to show. My boyfriend keeps saying since I look the same it won't seem to real to him until I show. Even though we have the ultrasound pictures, and I feel TOTALLY diffrent. Stupid boy lol

You can ask for your pregnancy how far along you are able to excercise for.
what are positives and negatives to look for in your pregnancy.
what are signs of worry or concern.
what you can do for morning sickness.
prevention of strechmarks.
what is a healthy weight gain and an over gain.
How many ultrasounds you will have.
If you will have the same doctor through out.
etc.

and i promise when you cant fit into anything and its hard to even get up by yourself youll want to be normal again lol
i cant get out of the car by myself

oh wow! lol this is going to be fun...xD I'll send you the site I found...it's really cute! It compares the baby to fruit and such...it's kinda crazy! haha. And thank you girls! You've all been a real big help! poor the_girlfriend...I hope that doesn't happen! eeep! Sounds so frustrating! lol beepbeep 176! He's such a guy...even with proof...lol xD But yeah that's totally understandable. And yeah...I am just like you...I'm just so eager! Thank you jessamyn for the examples and advice. I'm going to write all this stuff down and some other questions that I have...^^

lol I already miss being normal, I'm sick all the time and can't take anything but tylenol for my headaches. Since I know I'm not gonna be normal for awhile I'm looking forward to being huge and uncomfortable. Everyone better treat me like a princess!

haha they better! poor thing...I don't want morning sickness! I'm like freaking out over it!!! lol But that really does suck, hun...=/...I hope it gets better!

oh yeah wanna hear this
im a anti meds person
im haveing kristen witout and epiderl or any pain killers ive NEVER taken anything like tylonol or advil or even midol when i had my periods
i just dont take meds...
everyone says im crazy and that im going to be screaming for an epi...but i dont want one and im not going to get one
and another thing that sucks is i have carpel tunnel and sciatica which creates ongoing back pain for me 24/7
and all i use is icy hot lol

Yep, you're crazy! No epididural! I'm getting an epideral the second I walk into the hospital lol

It's really not as bad as you think, yeah it hurts i'm not going to lie to you. i had the plan of going drug free but thanks to my complications i had pamergen and then because i was hyper sensitive to the pain relief it actually did the oposite and made the pain worse so in a way i went pain relieft free because it didn't work!
