First Time being Pregnant

[Amber623]

and it still feels weird to say that and be proud!  It's such a change of pace because I spent my whole life up till now actively trying to NOT get pregnant!! I'm wondering if it's normal to be so bloated...i constantly look like i'm 5 or 6 months preggo!! My pants are tight already and i'm only like 4wks4days! My boobs went from a C to a D already! I feel like I have too many symptoms, lol...it's almost like, "i should have any symptoms until I'm showing" kinda deal..lol :) I haven't had implantation bleeding at all (yet)..and I'm hoping that I won't, that would scare me a lot...

ok, so my question--I've been having sex, and I'm assuming that's perfectly fine, but I can't get over my fear that I'm going to disrupt the fetus and it'll make me miscarriage...i just need someone to tell me i'm absolutely nutty!

oh and sex is ok to have during your pregnancy. you just have to adjust to different positions as your pregnancy progresses. some women have even had it to progress the labor(historical reference)

Glad im not alone. i look like im already in my second trimester from the bloating and stuff. i havent gained any weight, nor have I lost any. Which is strange because i have really bad, but not severe morning sickness. i cant keep much down except fluids and those go right through me. then on top of that, i have heartburn from who knows where. according to my mom, heartburn means a lot of hair or something like that.

i had the creamy discharge  like yang, but it went away. a friend of mine did say that that is normal.  my bbs are also heavy and i already went fom a c to d and the d bras are starting to get tight too.  

is anyone else having a hard time getting to sleep?  like you lay there in the bed going, bed time, but you just cant fully shut off your mind?

Hi Ladies

I am so bloated.. my work pants barely buttons up now. I havent had a BM in 5 days either and i been taking colace the last 2 days but still no action yet. I was also afraid to have fun in bed but after a few research i found that its legit. My bbs are heavy and sensitive but they havent grown blown up yet haha. I dont have big bbs to begin with anyway so i do hope they'll get bigger thru out the pregnancy so i can see what i look like with big bbs hehe. The only other symptons i have is feeling wet down there and having alot of creamy cm during the day and then it slows down at night time. I'm also still temping just for peace of mind and temps have remained in the 98s.

I'm very bloated too...but up really high under my ribs!  I haven't gained any wait, but I feel like you could just stick a pin in me and I would POP!  LOL!  My bbs grew really fast on my lat pregnancy also, this time they are just starting to @ 5 weeks.  But they are KILLING me!  I have to sleep with sport bras!
As for having sex while pg...go for it!! If you aren't having any complications and as long as it is not completely crazy hard core rough sex, then it will not affect the baby at all!  (It is only about the size of a sesame seed right now!)  You can search online for other answers and also ask your MD.  My girlfriend had sex all the way up until the baby was born!  She loved it!!

hkenny:  I know what you mean about the lack of symptoms and getting nervous!  I have had a couple days where most to all of my symptoms have  subsided and I am sooo panicking that I am having a m/c.  I guess I will be that way until prob the baby is born!

Wishing you both a happy, healthy, uncomplicated 9 months!!

Alot of women get implantational bleeding, I did with my 1st but not this pregnancy. As far as I know it would only occur for a day and it would be 10-14 days after O.At this point I dont think you will have it. My boobs grew fast with my 1st as well, it was crazy!!
I am finding I am pretty bloated as well, its weird b/c I too look prego but shouldnt relaly look that way yet. In my opinion its good to have symptoms I havent had alot this time and it makes me nervous.
I am not horny at all but I would say as long as you are not bleeding or spotting it should be ok!
