first pregnancy

[mommacheech92]

It's my first pregnancy and I was just wondering how far along would you get to hear the babies heart beat and know the sex of the baby?

I've been leaking for about 2 1/2 weeks now just clear though it haven't really turned to milk color yet I'm a ftm btw

[MalachiKnC]

Well our first doctors appointment he said we were 5+7 due to lmp sometimes I'm irregular tho but had to come back at 4 weeks for a check up all he did was stick his finger in me and said I was good That's all he ever did was stick his finger in me times I asked him a question he liked he didn't want to tell me or something but I went to another doctor That's just women and they tell me everything and answer my questions n have stuck their finger in me once but we heard the heartbeat around 11 weeks it was my first appointment with them then 14+6 we had our very first ultrasound it was supposed to be for dating but our baby legs were open and she said "Oh wow looks like y'all are having a boy you can't help but to see" and we all laughed and by boyfriend said "Ya he looking like his daddy already " it was a happy moment I was hoping for twins a boy n girl but she said we will know first sure with anatomy but she's pretty sure though so are we... sorry I know this is long.

I'm 5weeks as well feel sick all the time my boobs are real sore as well...

It's different for everyone! The soreness for me stopped toward the middle of the second trimester, but I'm 36 weeks in 3 days and I just started getting tiny stretchmarks on my boobs. I only noticed a few weeks ago that stuff would come out when I squeezed my nipples (although you are not supposed to do that). The real growing starts after baby is born when your real milk actually comes in. Until then, they might get a little bigger but not too terribly much.

When does the beast milk start...? Because I'm only 5 weeks today and my bobs are getting big and are killing me...

Gender is usually during your anomaly scan (roughly around 20 weeks or 5 months) where they measure all the vital things to know how your baby is doing. I had to ask a few times because my UT forgot that most people are really excited and dying to know what seems to them like a small detail. Word of advice: enjoy every single second of your ultrasound, cuz a normal, healthy pregnancy only really calls for two unfortunately :(

How's the nausea treating you?

[nenachula2931]

I am 7 weeks we only 2 weeks apart

[mommacheech92]

Yeah. That's what I was thinking. I'm also having cramping a little bit. I can tolerate it now. But I'm almost 5 weeks...

My opinion I wouldn't drink wine. They said that a glass every once and a while is okay. They never said it is good for the baby and alcohol is not. So I wouldn't.

[nenachula2931]

Dont drink when you are pregnant  its a big no no

[mommacheech92]

I was also told to drink a glass of wine but I didn't know when I could or how often. Or even if I should.

to hear your babys heart beat usually around 6 weeks or more and for the gender 14 to 18 weeks
