Introduction - Excited
Posted: 06-25-07 17:54pm

Hi everyone

My name is Natalie, I'm 19 years old and found out I was pregnant today. I has been 40 days since my last period (my cycle is usually 30-35 days) I have done two tests both very strong positives.

I didnt think I would be pregnant as my stomach has been really crampy today and I have back pain. I do have really sore boobs, which I dont normally get and I'm peeing all the time.

I'm quite nervous, I think that makes me 5 weeks 5 days due on 21/02/07, I've not taken any folic acid yet and came back from holiday 2 weeks ago where I drank alcohol. I hope everything will be ok.

So I'm looking forward to getting to know people over the next 34 weeks.

Natalie

Dont worry to much about the drinking alcohol, lots of people mistaken do it before they find out! Just stop now and get some folic acid!! Smile

Hey welcome to the forum. I'm also 16 and expecting my little girl on the 18th September. Yea don't worry about alcohol I conceived over christmas and new year, needless to say I drank a lot over those two occasions before I found out I was pregnant.

Hi, I was at the Doctors this morning. Booked my first pre-natal appointment for 1 week today. Found out I have mumps, my Doctor is worried as I have a slight fever and this can increase risk of miscarriage. I'm just paranoid about keeping my temperature down now.

Hi Natalie,

Welcome. I am 10 weeks tomorrow and had my prenatal visit last week. Don't worry and just take good care of yourself now. If you can take 2mg (2000 mcg) folic acid daily. That is crucial for the first 10-12 weeks of pregnancy.
