Did u guys and the fathers of ur babies fight alot when u were pregnant..... and did u guys get sick alot or dizzy ever? and when did u guys start showing? i'm 3 months and instead of ganing any weight for the past 2 months all i have done is lost weight like 20 lbs and i'm so scared cuz i eat alot but i cant gain weight and the doctors say thats not good and yah.... just wondering if anyone else had this.....

heheeh DONT WORRY! i went throught the same thing!! DONT LISTEN TO THOSE DOCTORS!!! Granted gaining weight is good... but try gaining weight when you are throwing up every day ALL day! Its ok! this will most likely go away after the 3 month and almost toward the end of the 4th. You will get dizzy a lot... and you might get a lot of headaches. Ones that hurt soooo bad that you can't stand it.
You will start to show toward maybe your 4th month..... but this ranges from every person. You might not even show til the 6th month. And it also depends how much you gain. You will start gaining by the 4th month... approx 1 pound a week. I still haven't really started to show and i am in my 18th week. I also lost 10 pounds during the first 3 months of pregnancy and only recently gained maybe 3 pounds.
Most important thing is to PUSH yourself to drink A LOT OF WATER! NO matter how much you dont want to drink it. It reduces syptoms a lot. Also.. if you are throwing up a lot... eat a small snake (raisons, crackers, even potato chips if you like them even) so that you wont throw up. THis is eating every half hour or so. yes.. THAT MUCH.

And the guy.. well... it could be your hormones or it could be you growing up and he isn't. I am at the beginning of my 5th month and I can't stand the ex (father). He is already out of my life and hopefully for good. Why? because i grew up. I know what i need for my baby and with him i could never have provided it.
For you... it could be many of reasons. I go see a couniler. they are the best because they know REAL problems and help you get through them. A physciatrist is horrible. Also picking a female that has children makes a difference. Talking to someone is such a good idea... especially about <HIM>.

Good luck! Please keep in touch!! I would really like to know how you are doing.
Also... if you feel drained or tired... you feel horrible and have all the symptoms of pregnancy... ITS A GIRL. (most likely) They take all your hormones. hehhe. Just something to think about. Dont think about the bad things and certainly DONT worry. One thing that sucks about being pregant is you think the worst will happen. I have thought of every possible thing happening. hehee BUT I AM FINE!

Another thing... if you can afford the book! its WONDERFUL! get "what to expect when you are expecting" it really has reasured my fears about sypmtoms and problems!

melz,
no i didn't have any morning sickness and never lost any weight but every pregnancy is different. i did, however, fight w/ my baby's "father" alot. he was really mentally abusive. thankfully i got the guts to leave him. i never ate much in my first trimester and didn't show till about 6 months. good luck w/ the baby!

Do not listen to your doctor! I tell you that right up front. The only people that should be watching what they eat are those that are over weight or have complications in their pregnancy. If you watch those birthing shows like Birth Day and Special Delivery, the one's with the problems are either over weight, Drug addicted or have some hereditary problems. If you have none of these problems eat as much as you want. Just be aware you'll have to lose a lot afterwards. I breastfeed so I lost my weight pretty fast. And I surely did fight alot with my boyfriend. It's normal. Everything they do will get one your nerves. I know my boyfriend did.

hi
well jennifer said all that could be said ( go girl) but u need to watch ur headaches.b/c i had a headache for 3 weeks straight . and it was b/c of my blood pressure. so watch it. i am not saying it will happen to u but it can.. and try not to get to stressed out ok. oh dang how wrong of my self for not saying who i am. my name is Lachrishia and i 18 with a 2 month old baby boy-Hayden.. if there is anything i can help anyone with plz e-mial me at lsgbrat2@aol.com b/c i dotn know if i can get on here that much . but i do check my mail everyday ok bye

I didn't show until I was six and half months pregnant...so don't worry! I did get dizzy spells a lot but they went away after awhile. Sitting down and drinking more water (gotta love those liquids....) and eating a small snack always helped me because I was getting my mind off of it and the doctor told me because I needed more food sometimes because I was very active during my pregnancy so sometimes I was running low on fuel. The whole fighting thing....yeah A LOT! So most of it is normal. Try to realize that your hormones are running wild and that you need to try to be aware of that and let him know he needs to be sensitive to that as well! Best of luck!
