July 2010 Mommies

[kenglish]

Hey all Mommies-to be. My name is Kelly and I am 30 years old. I just got married on July 4th, 2009 and am now pregnant with my first child, with a due date of July 1st, 2010.. That makes me 8 weeks pregnant and I am very sick.... I have such bad morning sickness and it lasts throughout the day. I am unable to eat anything but saltines and water. Is anyone else experiencing this? Everyone I talk to say it will go away be the 12th week.

Welcome Kelly!!!

I was feeling sooo hungry last night but everything I looked at made me feel sick so finally I settled on some plain noodles and did ok with them so was excited to get something to eat!!

I haven't been able to eat anything yet this morning but have been sipping at some juice crossing my fingers it will help settle my stomach.

Today is DH's birthday, we celebrated early this past weekend with his family so he already got his gifts but this morning I decided to take the last test in the box just because and of course 2 dark pink lines right away so I wrapped it and put it on the bed (he works 3rd shift so sleeps while I am at work during the day) he texted me and said it was the best birthday gift ever!!

Hello Ladies. My name is Abby, I’m 27 and this is my second pregnancy. I am due July 24, 2010. I have a 5 year old son who is begging for a sister. He has actually told me that he wants to pick out “his baby sister” on the baby website. LOL. How do you make a 5 year old understand that you don’t get to pick your sibling? Any way my DH and I were lucky enough to conceive on our wedding night which was 10/31/09. I’m so looking forward to going through this pregnancy with my husband by my side.
I hope all you ladies have happy healthy pregnancies. Good luck everyone!!!

Hello again Ladies. The post above is me. I just realized I was using my old account. So I switched off.

Any way, I see a lot of you, my self included, are already nauseous. I’ve found that chewing gum after I eat something helps keep everything down and settles my stomach. I don’t know if this will work for any one else, but it may be worth a try.

Hi all, I'm 33 and expecting our first ~July 3rd (depending on which site I use). I have my first ultrasound this friday. Last week was awesome - I had no symptoms. This week, some morning nausea. I feel like I have to keep eating for it to go away, then the rest of the day is ok. If this is as bad as it gets, I'll be happy with that.

Welcome to all the new ladies!

Kelly- I believe you are now the farthest along. Looks like you might be delivering a baby on your one year anniversary! Don't think that I would like that just because you wouldn't be able to spend the day with DH because of it being the babies b-day. I'm feeling sick quite often, but don't believe it's as bad as yours. Hope you start feeling better!

Abby- How cute! I have a four year old and he's said some funny stuff as well. Hope they both enjoy this! My son wants a boy, as much as I love him I hope he doesn't get what he's wishing for. Haha...I really want a girl, but will obviously take what I get!

Elenash- I know you must be super excited for that ultrasound even though you won't be able to see much. My first one is this coming Tuesday, the 24th. Can't wait as well. As far as my sickness I feel sick if I eat and sick if I don't most of the time. Seems like it's better in the evenings. Hope everyones sickness gets better. I know it doesn't feel to great.

Just curious if any of you have started telling your family yet? DH and I started the day we found out after I got a confirmed positive from our local health department. We had been trying for so long that we couldn't hold it in! Hope everyone had a great Tuesday!

I want to tell my family sooo bad but DH wants to wait until after our Drs appointment but thats not until dec 10th!!! I already told my aunt but she is like a sister to me and knows not to say anything.

Hi ladies! Im 8 weeks and 4 days and technically due date is June 27th but I always seem to go over my due date so I thought I could maybe chat with both June and July chat sessions! Very nervous and excited even though this is nothing new to me as I have other kids but this is the first baby for me and my new husband! I still have nausau but if I eat several smaller meals through-out the day it seems to help! Also, we are not telling any of our family until 15 weeks as we lost a baby at 14 weeks so it will be nice to chat with you gals!

Hello my name is Sherry and I am 39 years old. This is my frist pregnancy and I am due on July 2, 2010. Afte reviewing all the post I believe I am one of the oldest in here. Have a child at such an old age really scares me. I have been lucky in not having morning sickness but unlucky around 3pm everyday due to needing a nap. My next Dr. appt is on the Nov 24, 09 and they will be doing a sonogram.

[ProudMaMa&Wife]

Welcome Sherry and San! Hope you both have wonderful pregnancies!

Sherry- I also go for my next appointment on the 24th and will be getting an ultrasound. As I've told all these ladies 100 times I'm sooo excited!!!


As for me, I've not been to sick today, but super tired! I came home today and tried to lay down with DS who is 4, but he wasn't having it. My husband ended up watching him and I just recently woke up. I wish this tired thing would go away!
