[465830644175849928_620_5]

Hello, my name is Rachael and im 27 yrs old. I just found out that I am pregnant on Dec 22 2014. According to the first day of my last period I am 11 weeks and 2 days as of today, Dec 24 2014. I called and made an appointment with my doctor to confirm pregnancy but she can't get me into see her until Jan 5 2015. My concern is that I found out somewhat late, was smoking and not eating right most of the time, and I need to know if there is anything I can or should be doing until I get to my doctor??

Yes I found out 8/1 and delivered 12/24 with my first (still got periods and used protection). I was smoking, drinking, and taking my rx adderall. I was however eating super healthy. I stopped everything and had a very large and perfectly healthy baby girl. She is 4 and she is so smart, beautiful, and perfect. I nursed for a long time and we keep very healthy and active, and she doesn't even have the asthma that all her cousins, aunts, uncles and mama has. You will be fine... it's very common to find out later like you did, it's really not that late, and it will inspire you to go above and beyond health wise from here on out!good luck and congratulations! : )

U can find out gender as early as 12-13weeks!! :))

I found out at 7weeks and I didn't have a healthy lifestyle. I smoked and drank. But when I found out I stopped both and got vitamins. I'm 21wks and my Princess is perfectly healthy so far

Yes, that's a good point. I have been lucky to have only mild symptoms so far. I can see where it would feel like forever, I can't wait to hold baby Lyric! How far were you when you knew what the gender was?

Be happy about it. I found out at 4 weeks it seemed like forever to get out of the first trimester.

I have quit smoking and just bought some vitamins today so I am getting started with that. It just makes me so nervous that I am already almost a through my first trimester and just finding out! First time mommy jitters I guess lol
