Oh my gosh. What to do when you find out you are expecting. This is your first right? Well pregnancy is beautiful. All of it. Even the things you hate at the time they happen, when you look back you think of it as a fond memory and even tell your children, "You know what you did to me when you were in my stomach?????"
So some people have a wonderful pregnancy and they would never know they were pregnant if not for the protuding belly. But for most of us if you don't already have crazy things happening in the first trimester then you will get plenty in the second and third.
I would say just relax and be glad you haven't gotten to the part that makes you say to yourself every day "Is it freakin time yet?"
Try doing things you can't really do when you get larger. Long walks, rearranging all the rooms in the house, cleaning off those top shelves. Pretty soon all that stuff will be next to impossable.
But just for fun you could start making a baby scrap book. Store baught ones are nice but ones that are cover to cover things that are your idea and inspired by your little bean hold a lot more sentimental value.
I know also in my early months what really gets me through the long and boring days is that show A baby story. I love that show so much. Or special delivery. Anything that has to do with babies being born.
Then also there is a day by day pregnancy calendar that I just love on
www.justmommies.com. You can personalize it to your due date and I remember in my last pregnancy I just loved getting up every morning and reading that thing. It was like the highlight of my day. I already have one made for this little one.
Also spend lots and lots of time with DH or DP if you have one. If this is your first child then I am guessing right now you have all the time in the world with your guy. Some people don't take advantage because they see it as something that is always going to be there. You could plan a date night once every two weeks or something until the baby comes because once he/she does come, alone time is usually a thing of the past unless you have family close by that like to give a helping hand. I think it has been over a year since DH and I have had any alone time.
Well those are some ideas. Pretty common, but all I can think of.
Trust me, time is going to fly so fast and pretty soon you are going to wonder where it went. I remember with my first pregnancy it felt like it took 2 months for the whole thing to be over lol.
: but also wanting to do something every day to celebrate being pregnant, because I want to enjoy every second. Anyone more experienced have some ideas?
If only I had gotten my parents to pay for that instead of that unused crib... 
So if it's all right by y'all, I'm going to go start a new thread so she doesn't keep getting email notifications about new replies, reminding her.
