    I just found out about a week ago I am pregnant. Well I new before, but confirmed with 2 pregnancy tests. I have been to the midwife once for a pre appointment. I am very excited but this is my first time and I want it to be as natural as possible. I have been having trouble eating, as everything makes me wanna puke until nighttime.
    Any comments or advice for the new mom to be. It would be very helpful.
    So excited but it feels unreal right now!

    Try and keep to a pretty bland diet like dry toast for breakfast, but you'll probably just have to ride it out. Hopefully it won't last too long and doesn't interfere with how well you feel mentally about the whole thing. Good luck. Keep us informed!

    congratulations! I'm pregnant too! :D have you thought of waterbirth?
    Just wondering? it's the way I've chosen to go, This is my first child as well,
    so I'm a bit worried, but thinking that waterbirth is the best way of natural child birth.
    I'll let ya know how it goes, if ya want. lol.

    Congrats!!!

    To ward off the nausea you should graze constantly thruoghout the day. ALways have some food on hand and don't wait to feel hungry to eat.

    Yes, if you wait until you feel hungry, it hits hard. Snack snack snack. Eat some ginger to settle your tummy. Or, a glass of water with lemon squeezed in it.
