For the first trimester I went round the supermarket imagining eating the food and knew instantly if I'd be able to stomach it!! Never had that in any previous pregnancy x

No scan but the internal exam was right on..it felt 8.5 weeks she said. My 13 week scan is scheduled for August 18th! I have to go make dinner now...will catch up more later!

Crazy cat couple- I'm taking the same prenatals with some additional D and iron as I run low on those and then probiotics when I remember:-) What sort of work do you do from home? I'm sure that's helpful for when you're feeling icky and pregnant.

How's everybody feeling about another impending labor? I can't seem to shake the fear of the pain even though I coped with it last time- that doesn't make it anymore fun. Lol. I keep trying to tell myself that it has to happen and there's no use worrying about it and if I did it the first time, I can do it again but so far, there isn't a day where I don't think about it. Ugh

Lala - I totally had a freak out about labor! Although I wanted an epidural with both my previous pregnancies it never actually worked out. Labor is exciting to me but the anticipation of that kind of pain freaks me out! I'm thinking of trying to pick up some hypnobabies concepts to try to relax me more during transition and for the hard labor.

Rosie. .glad everything looks good - hope your pink eye heals soon. I have an appt at 8 week as well and ultrasound is included. ..

Now that I'm 6 weeks..symptoms are sorta hitting me. I cant tell if I have an upset stomach or jist feel nauseous.so far I had sorw boobs and complete loss of appetite along with bitter taste sometimes and very mild nausea in the beginning.

I'm actually soooo excited and looking forward to the the whole Labour experience since I never got that with my son. I'm looking forward to loads od kicks, sleepless nights and going full term..:-)

[oncue]

Rosie what do they check internally to know how far along you are? I find it really interesting as I haven't ever had an internal exam

Odd I also often have a bitter taste in my mouth too it actually makes me feel worse when it happens. Can't wait for the sickness to pass

Crazycat I take blackmores prenatal pregnancy vitamins, they are quite popular in Australia and luckily don't make me feel sick

Hope everyone is feeling well today. I'm still super tired from about noon onwards so I try make sure I do as much as I can from waking up to lunch time. My poor kiddies are getting use to being house bound!

[lala22]

Futureminime- good idea on hypno birthing research. I think I used some of their concepts in my last labor but who knows- it all goes out the window when things hurt that badly but I'll say this I held up just fine until 8 cm so I keep trying to remember that. Lol

Odd- What happened with your last pregnancy/labor?

I just have to confess and let it out. As much as I'm trying to convince myself otherwise, I do care and I am obsessing about every little detail and keep getting depressed thinking its another boy. I know it's wrong to think like thst but can't help it.

After having nearly perfect sway and attempt last month, and then having the miscarriage, completely threw me off. I went back and looked at my MFP and saw how ridiculousridiculously relaxed i was about eating...I can't help but think that i should just accept its a boy that my months of swaying and 'hard work' will be for nothing. I know all that matters is a healthy baby in the end..but I just can't shake these feelings off. Hopefully, admitting to myself by writing it will help.

Lala..same thing that greasemonkey is going through right now. Exact same situation with pre eclemsia, high blood pressure, fear of.stroke, baby born at 32 weeks. Not being able to breastfeed (my biggest regret) everything that possibly could ve gone wrong, it did in the end after having nearly perfect pregnancy.
