Congrats!! I suspect that I'm 4-5 weeks preg. I took a HPT last tuesday that was negative, but still have no had a period and am having tons of symptoms.

Hi! What states are you guys located in? I'm 30 and pregnant with my first!

I took my first pregnancy test on the 21 or 22 of January and it was negative (because I thought I was experiencing some of the symptoms-- mainly tenderness). Then, I took another one on the 27th and it was positive! I've taken another 2 tests since, and they have both been positive. I think I'm due around 10/7/10.

When are you going for your first doctor's appointment? My first appointment isn't until March 8! That seems like an long time to wait!? I've felt a little tired and tender, but no morning sickness yet. What about you guys?

I'm in New York. I took my first test on the 30th of January and it was positive and the second was today. My first apointment is the 18th of feb. on the 6 week mark. Yeah, march is a bit longer but some docters wait until 8 wks so the 8th isn't too far off....if you're anything like me then you want to get there asap for some verification I've got some morning sicknes, soreness and i'm tired 24/7 besides that i just can't believe i have a little 2 wk old baby inside me it's so unreal

Congratulations, ladies.
I'm due Oct. 8th with my second baby.

Oh, I'm in Georgia currently, but likely not for much longer.

Hi all! I'm expecting my third child - due October 1, took the test Oct 26 and it was positive in about ten seconds. Have my first prenatal scheduled for next Tuesday, Feb 16. Hope this one is a girl (my other two are boys)! And I'm in Knoxville, TN.

Hello ladies,

My first positive HPT was around January 20th. First ultrasound was this morning - I am 6.5 weeks, and got to see and hear the baby's heartbeat - amazing.

I'm due October 1.

Definitely dealing with serious pregnancy symptoms, especially morning sickness! I'm on a diet of Carnation Instant Breakfast, fruit, donuts and crackers and whatever else I can make myself eat. (Normally, I'm kind of a health nut and I eat a salad for lunch pretty much every day; right now the thought of vegetables makes me sick!)

I'm 28 and this is my first. I'm in the DC area. Looking forward to chatting with everyone as the group grows

HI!!!!!
I live in PA and my due date is Oct. 4, 2010. This is my first time and im so excited! Despite feeling lousy all.. the... time... it's thrilling to know something with a heartbeat is growing inside of me. I'm currently experiencing nausea all day and have been eating small meals throughout the day. Taking B6 vitamins seem to help. I know eating greasy foods are not that great to do while pregnant but I cant help passing up fries and a milkshake. I'm praying to God the nausea will start to wear off soon. So for now nausea is the number one worst symptom. What are some other good remedies anyone knows?

Hope to hear from you all

I have been having morning-noon-and-night sickness for a couple weeks and i find the best thing is ginger, nothing else works for me at all. Ginger herbal tea is the best (no caffine) ginger ale with real giner would work the same i guess. it's a really great way to naturally settle your nausea for me it works wicked quick too....hope that helps a bit.
