I'm Amy and due the end of Feb first of March. I'm usually late so it will probably be in March. I guess I'll be joining this due date club and Feb's due date club :LOL

Anyway, I feel awful. All day morning sickness but glad to be pregnant. We lost a baby a few months ago and I feel lucky to be at this point. 7 wks tomorrow!

Good plan Raven!

Congrats Amanda and LeShea!

Does anyone know of a good book for nutrition during pregnancy. I'm really trying to be overly cautious this time. I have to watch my weight gain and the better I eat the less m/s hits me.

Kylie - I get so many awful comments. I'm having my sixth. "Are you done?" "Was this planned?" Etc, etc.

I just smile and say yes it was planned, we don't know if we're done, and we're so excited! All of that is true. I used to get offended but now I just feel so lucky to have all these great kids! I told dh's mom yesterday (wanted us to be done after two kids). I didn't let her get a word in. I said "we're having another baby, it was planned, we're happy about it, we don't know if we're done, we're having a homebirth if you want to come you're welcome". She was stunned and actually said congratulations! She's never said that about ANY of the other kids!

I'm avoiding all dairy as much as possible this go round. I hope you find something to help.

The preggie pops do help. As does eating really, really tiny meals, little to know sugar (including many fruits) and very little dairy. I'm starving alot but have to control myself and eat in small doses. I've been drinking emergen -C once/day, taking lots of vit. B, floradix, and the prenatal good mornings by rainbow lite. Eating veggies seems to help alot too.

The vasectamy was threatened to me at the announcement of my fourth and fifth pregnancies. Then I miscarried a few months ago and when I got pg this time he said nothing about getting a vasectamy. He knows it's against our religion anyway. Geez.

Shannon!

How did I miss that you were in the hospital? You poor thing. How long do you have to stay there?

I have done absolutely NOTHING this whole week. I feel so crappy. The house is so trashed. I'm embaressed but don't know what else to do. The OB gave me unisom? Said it would help with the m/s. Anyone ever tried that?

How far along are you Raven? I get crampy everytime. I think the ligaments and such are stretching and making room for baby. I personally look about 6 months pregnant already. :LOL

 

[ekblad9]

OMG, my 3 1/2 year old dd just told me I had a fat belly! Argh! I know she's only 3 but come on! I KNOW I'm fat already! :LOL

 

[ekblad9]

Are you OK?

 

[ekblad9]

I am such a clutz when I'm pg. Yes, take it easy! You're working too hard!
