Frist trimester

This is my third pregnancy and this one is very diffrent from the other two, I was very sick all the through with my two girls. This touch wood has been better although the tiredness seams to be getting on top of me. Although it does'nt help with having 2 under 5. The sickness only comes on when i am really tired so i try to rest my body but my head keeps my on the go. I'm just looking forward to the 12 weeks scan to make sure the baby is ok then i think my mind will let me rest. good luck to all you pregnant ladys out there it a roller couster but its worth it.

Arti i know exactly what your going through, i had 3 misscarriages in a space of 18 months. Its hard as hell and sucks big time. Im now 12 weeks pregnant and scared. Insetad of being happy and excited i worry every five minutes. Its exhausting. I can't tell you how to stop worrying because i have no idea. But stay strong and try to be positive. And know that your not the only one going through this, im in the same boat at the same time. xox

What Hell is mine

Being pregnant is supposed to be wonderful, but I've gone and messed everything up! I've always wanted to be a mother, but trusted God's judgement about when would be the right time. After three years, here I am, carrying a little one that is pleased by nothing! Any sort of food makes me sick to my stomach, and I cannot eat any portion bigger than a baseball. I began a new job about 2 weeks after conception, and they're thrilled to be there for me, calling me Preggo affectionately and trying to send me home, but I'm digging in my heels. I HATE throwing up, but I've done it twice today, and called my midwife mother to cry about it. I don't want to go home, because all I'll do is sleep and not eat, which always makes things worse. I wish there was something I could do to make this okay, again. I live alone, and the Father is just on the moon in love with his third child, but I feel like such an outsider! I'm a single mother, who can't keep any food down, living alone in a one bedroom apartment in Las Vegas, and feeling like a terrified child on a rollercoaster. I'd beg anyone to make it all stop, make it all better! I REFUSE to abort or to consider adoption, unless the family adopted me too, but I am SO miserable! I've no energy to get my chores done! Everything is a dang trial, now. And the family support isn't there on my biological mom's side, as she's known for being cruel at the wrong times, probably telling me to buy knitting needles and abort at home. So in the spirit of peace and quiet, I've decided not to share this with anyone until Christmas. And then prepare a VERY merry ie rum-infused eggnogg to make everyone toast the arrival of my little one, with. Is it me, or is the sky caving in on me? I feel like I'm being dragged kicking and screaming into this thing, and don't know how to fix the nausea, how to get my energy back, how to stay happy during such personal turbulence.

Early Pregnancy Signs

Me and my husband tried to concieve for 2 years without success. What I remember when I did become pregnant was my appetite. I was hungry all the time and had an extreme need for cheese and protein. I always had abnormal cycles so I did not think it odd that I was late. I found out at 6 1/2 weeks. That explained all my weird hunger pangs!!!!!
