It may be just a urinary trac infection.
Has the baby started to kick yet. As long
as you have no discharge I wouldn't worry.
Soon your little one will be kicking and
causing your belly to grow. Being
constipated is normal drink alot of water
and real juice, walk alot, and eat lots of
grain foods. Good luck to you. Write me
anytime with questions. Im a mother of a
4 year old and a 2 year old and im due in
march with number three.
I have had some rough pregnancies and im
having problems with this one to. So lets
talk if you want to.

It is quite common to have a kidney
infection while pregnant.
Hello by the way... Congratulations.
Having a mother of four ( only three
pregnancies) when trying to use the
washroom, do not strain, constipation is
quite common, eat lots of vegies and
grains... Straining does cause hemeroids.
Oh and put vitamin e on your tummy and
back of your legs... Hmmm anywhere there
is weight gain, it will help in combating
stretch marks... Wish I did and knew
that!!!!!!!!
You will experience bloating...
Expecially in the heat, and this will
cause soreness in your toes. Drink plenty
of water, and keep cool.
It is hard to remain calm, your homones
are all mixed up, and tension is high...
Try some relaxing soothing music, and keep
the heat in your baths to tempid water.
The best thing you can do for your baby is
to relax... Nature knows what it is
doing, and if you keep yourself healthy,
your baby will be too! Enjoy your
pregnancy... And your worries are what
every women goes through. Your body is
tuff, and so is your baby's but the little
one can feel your stress... Sooooo take a
walk, talk to your baby, rub your tummy,
hummm and just enjoy the bonding time.
Trust me, once they grow up, you won't
ever feel that close again!!!!!!
It is an awesome thing. I am happy for
you! Oh, when your baby is born... Tough
your baby's face with the side of your
finger... It is the softest most
wonderful feeling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God
bless
you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
