May '08 Mommies!!

OK, there have been ALOT of BFP's this month so far... Just wondering how everyone is doing???

When are your first OB appointments?

How is everyone dealing with the sudden rush of symptoms??

Hope everyone has a health and happy 9!!!!!

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

My 1st appointment is Oct. 9th. Cannot wait! I'm still so nervous that something is going to go wrong.

So far I am really tired all the time - that's the hardest thing to deal with - my house is a mess but I can't even think about vacuumming or cleaning. I told DH he needs to clean the bathroom this weekend for me
Aside from fatigue, I'm peeing all the time, really bloated and I have crampy feelings on and off. No nausea yet - crossing my fingers on that one!

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

I'm with you with the exhaustion. I go to bed by 9 every night but I'm up at 2 to pee but then I'm awake for at least an hour with AWFUL heartburn..

Nausea has kicked in a bit. I keep downing carbs like there is no tomorrow.. Ugh, I dread this MS..

Got my first OB appt changed to 10/3 (because of history and thyroid issues)... Looking forward to that! Hope everything is right on track!

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

I'm due May 5th. My first appointment is next Friday, 9-28, I can't wait!!

My symptoms are not too bad, just very hungry, very sleepy and very moody! My poor DH, I cried like there was no tomorrow because I placed an order for my contacts wrong.

I am also waking up at night to have to use the bathroom. Other than that things are good.

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

I'm due May 9th, but will have the baby the end of April, c-section. Julia my 1st was 8lbs 5oz, and she was born 2 weeks early, so my chances of this baby being bigger is high, so my Dr wants it born a liitle earlier. I had high BP at 38 weeks with Julia also so thats another reason.

I'm having horrible MS, and this horrible metalic taste in my mouth, and I just can't seem to get out of bed, SOOO TIRED!!!

My 1st OB appt was last week, and I just had my 1st sono on weds, everything looks great!! I'm 7 weeks today!

Hope everyone has a happy and healthy 9 months!!

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

yikes, I guess I'm a May 08 mom-2-b

my first appt is next Friday. I'm only 5 weeks. No real symptoms yet other than being more tired, and some "pangs".

If I recall correctly, I didn't really have symptoms this early last time either. I got off easy with no MS, so I'm hoping for the best this time around too.

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

When are your first OB appointments? I had one on Monday, but I'm not really counting that one because I had a scare. I saw blood, but the Dr. said its probably implantation bleeding. My next appointment is Oct. 4, by then I'll hear a heart beat because I'm only 5/5.5 weeks

How is everyone dealing with the sudden rush of symptoms?? The tiredness and the nausea are horrible. But I love the eatting, but it can be a little bit of a pain -- 'cause I'm always second guessing: is this healthy to eat, will it make me sick, etc.

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

Hi all May Mommies....

I am due May 15th and my first OB appt is 9/27. I don't get MS I get ES (evening sickness). I've also had terrible constipation and then when it does happen... LOOK OUT !! I have to run to the bathroom.

My bbs are starting to get tender and I swear I could cry at the drop of a hat. Other than that I'm PERFECT and can't wait.

Happy and Healthy 9 Months y'all

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

My EDD is May 23rd. My first OB/Gyn appointment is Thursday the 27th.

So far I've been feeling pretty good. I do have soar gums and went to the dentist, he said that your gums can get inflamed from the hormone increase. That it's normal during pregnancy. He also said I should go for cleanings every three months while pg. Besides that, I too have been getting up at 4am every morning to go to the bathroom, my boobs are tremendous, and I find I'm a little more irritable. Also, once I feel I have to go to the bathroom, I can't wait and hold it in, I have to go immediately!

I continue to drink my diet snapples and diet soda... is that bad? I do try and drink water too, but is it ok I still drink the others too? I've also been drinking a lot more OJ, I know that is good. Not a huge fan of plan water, I wish I was.

Happy, healthy 9 to all!!

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

Hi ladies! My first appoint isn't until October 1. I cannot wait!! We haven't really told anyone yet, but we will once we see the doc and have the sono. I was feeling absolutely normal up until this week. This week I had a pit of nausea, but this afternoon it's actually better and I think I'll be able to make dinner for the first time this week :) Boobs are definitely fuller and a little tender !

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

Hi all -- my EDD is also May 23rd and my 1st appt isnt until Oct 9th! My symptoms so far have been bbs are fuller, I'm extremely tired, I havemiddle of the night bathroom runs and some constipation. I am so worried that something will go wrong! I cant shake it.

I need to ask this......
Does anyone have increased discharge?
I keep reading its normally but again... it worries me.

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

I am also due in May... I think.

Re: May '08 Mommies!!

Hey everyone!!! Wanted to wish everyone who has their first OB visits this week good luck!!!

I have to wait another week for mine. Everything is a wait with pregnancy so far. Wait to ovulate, wait to BD, wait the 2WW, wait for AF, wait for a BFP, wait for symptoms, wait for OB appt. AARG!

Have a nausea free week!!!
