Very anxious and tired

My first trimester was very tiring. I suffered from fatigue, and pain in my body and abdomen. It felt like it was so difficult and there was constant stress of loosing the baby even though I never had a misscarriage. The symptoms were scary; I have pain in the night it felt like my bloodvessels were strectched. It was impossible to go to work, I could not even think about working. So I stayed home, wondering about my baby in my womb. I had lots of financial stress and stress of not knowing the health of my baby in the womb.

Thank god my first trimester is over now. I am in to my second trimester.

my story

i am 19 years old and i found out 3 days ago i was pregnant for sure. i just recently moved away from my family to be with my fiance, who was also my high school sweetheart, and i'm 6 hours away from my childhood home. i have not been to the doctor yet but after 5 pregnancy tests i know it is true.

i am so excited and cannot wait to have this baby with the love of my life. don't get me wrong, i do have bad morning sickness and crave fried dill pickles at all hours of the day, but i'm having fun. since my fiance is a doctor he is able to help me out a lot. i have a doctor appointment in 2 weeks and i can't wait to go and experience it with the love of my life. its something we've always talked about. the only problem is i'm not sure how to tell my family.

unsupportive husband

It's amazing how you don't really know someone until the time you need them most. I'm 34 years old and am 13 weeks into my first pregnancy. My husband and I have been married almost 2 years. Although a bit surprised, I was so excited to learn of this pregnancy. When I told my husband, his first response was, "Am I the father?" I've never given him any reason to mistrust me, and I work in the medical field and spend 60-70 hrs. a week at work while he works maybe 5 hours a day, and sleeps the rest of the day. This past Sunday as I was preparing for church, I began to bleed and have cramping. My husband was visiting his mother at the time. My mom (whom I was visiting) called him to tell him she was taking me to the hospital, and his response was, "Let me know how it turns out." He had no intention of meeting me at the hospital, but my mom told him he needed to be there, so he came. He made me feel guilty that I'd made him miss church with his mother. He says that his mom will always come first until she dies!!! Anyway, he was upset that a male examined me in the ER, and showed no emotion when I had an ultrasound and found out it was a boy. Me and the baby are fine, but I was told not to have sex. The minute we got home, he tried to force himself on me, saying that he had needs too. I was put on bedrest for two days, but he kept yelling at me to do things for him while he rested. I had a follow up appt. for another ultrasound yesterday to make sure everything was still ok, but he had no intention of going with me, and made plans for dinner with a client instead. He finally agreed to go after I got so hysterical and upset. I don't even know this man anymore. I'm so stressed out about it. When I mention to him how I feel, he says that I'm just too sensitive and need to be medicated. I think he just can't handle growing up and taking responsiblity. He's also such a momma's boy, and will always choose mom over me or this baby. HELP!!!

Pregnant

Hi, my name is Kelly and I'm 18. I found out I was pregnant about 2 weeks ago.

At first I was nervous, but now I'm excited. At first my parents were furious, but now they are getting over it and helping me get through it since my bf isnt here for me.

I have my first doc. appointment on March 31st and I'm so exicted! I'm just scared that I'm going to have a miscarriage, 2 of my friends have been pregnant before and have had miscarriages, I am praying that it doesnt happen to me. I've been so sick lately and it sucks!

I can't wait til this passes haha.
