Hi, I'm fairly new to the board just sharing my great news of my pregnancy. I go on my first prenatal appt. 11/07 although i look forward to it i'm nervous. It took 18 month TC my fiance will accompany me. I'm trying to keep it a secret until my 2nd trimester. It's been so hard to keep i want to tell my loved ones so they can share my joy. I can't remember all the signs and symptoms from my last pregnancy almost 9 years ago. I don't get too upset about the changes my body are going through. I understand that my hormonal changes are a good sign. I just want to know that everything is o.k. There are so many test to take at differant times to determine a healthy baby. I'm not claiming anything bad and hope for the best. I have a lot of experience and knowledge on many topics so write me sometimes. okie dokie, Sandi

I am sorry to hear about your mother, but see she knows anyway! I lost my father at a very young age.. so I know how hard it is. But yes.. crackers definatly did not cut it for me either. And it is hard to get them down! You know what really helped me was citrus fruits (fresh or in a cup). As soon as I started to feel the uh oh feeling.. that is when I would just open my little container and eat. My OB said that morning sickness is a sign of a healthy pregnancy, b/c your hormone levels are definatly fluctuating! Nice to chat with you!

I almost forgot go to this website http://www.babycenter.com. You can keep track of the oh so long weeks, and see what the baby is going through, and it lets you know what your body may be going through as well..it is really cool. I look forward to my weekly update all week!

Yes!! It is great to follow the growth and development of my baby. I found the site about 2 weeks ago surfing the web for information. I visit there almost daily. Another good site is www.discoveryhealth.com they have a huge selection too. I like the video on your changing body and the baby growth too. Well it just so many to choose from you'll have a ball.
