I'm also a first time Mum. I've hit week 13 in two days and am starting to feel better.
Good luck! We'll help you out as much as we can :)
Im a ftm mum too thanks for all the comments of advice. Its nerve wrecking.
Doesnt feel real yet.
I'm a third time mom. & my advice to u is simply to relax & enjoy every minute of it. With my first I scrapbooked every experience & it helped me bond with baby & in return helped me relax. If there are questions or concerns you have that trouble you, don't hesistate to call your doctor. And of course were here to help you with what we can. I wish u all the best, & congratulations!
First off, congratulations!
This is my first so I don't have much experience with being pregnant either. All I can really tell you is what I've learned so far: drink plenty of water, take your prenatal vitamins, when you are tired get rest (your heart is pumping twice as hard now to supply for you and baby), don't lift anything too heavy (my OB nurse said no more than 20 pounds), look up what you can not eat during your pregnancy, listen to your body and if something doesn't feel nor seem right then ask that's what we and the doctors are here for. We don't know everything so don't feel like you will be a bother calling and asking your OB questions. If people want to spoil you then let them because once your baby comes it will be all about them (for the most part). :) Enjoy every moment of this magical experience! Good luck and best wishes!
P.S. Always feel free to message me if need be. Again, congratulations!
