Hello, I’m Melissa. I live in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. My husband just moved here from Cuba in August and now I am 8 weeks pregnant and this is our first pregnancy. Our due date is June 4, 2019. This pregnancy has been harder on me than I expected. I have “morning” sickness everyday, and recently just found out I have a hematoma - very scary. Just looking for some insight for probably everything. #myfirstpost
Welcome @ cookie_melissa. I live in Kitchener. I found drinking Canada dry worked for me in little sips though.
@cookie_melissa I posted here only once and it was due to "morning sickness" which literally lasted all day long without a break in between. Diclectin got me sleepy but didn't help. What REALLY helped was Gravol! It's safe to use. Easy to swallow. And I take one every night before bed and it holds me throughout the whole next day. I have tried all other natural food google said, didn't help. So, I know we're not all the same - but worth a try. It was the worst feeling in the world in my opinion!!
@megand15, I go see my dr Nov 1. I am going to ask her about this. I have been loving grapes and baby cookies haha.
My doctor put me on diclectin because of morning (all day) sickness. It helped some. I also found keeping little snacks with me helped. I don't know how many almonds I ate in the beginning. Lol! Also for me, sipping ice water helped. Hope the sickness passes soon for you!
@cookie_melissa, eating chicken helps but honestly I recommend you to eat salted crackers or bread something small and simple every two hours eating large amount of food makes it worse also drinking apple juice helps too for me drinking water made things worse but sip on them don’t swallow large amounts either
@esterarias, did you find anything that helped your morning sickness? I have tried many things but it doesn’t seem to help much. I can’t wait to feel bad to normal. I can barely stomach any meals right now. Just snacks like fruits and veggies.
Welcome love and don’t worry everything will turn out perfect I used to have morning sickness constantly but I’m currently 15 weeks and I’m feeling better than ever
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
