I'm Pregnant!!

**bel08** · 11-07-2010 05:45 PM

After getting a very very faint positive and no period for a few days I thought 'what the heck let's see if I'm really pregnant'... well the blood result came back positive. I've had a bit of cramping and little bit of nausea. I keep going off random foods and sometimes the smell of certain foods makes me feel sick. It still hasn't really sunk in yet. I can't wait to start showing.
I'm worried about the medication that I'm on, abilify and cymbalta... But hopefully all will be well. If anyone could give any advice it would be much apreciated, this is my first pregnancy so I'm really clueless LOL.

hey bel08! I dont know about your medication, but I can say congratulations! You are going to go through a lot of ups and downs, but its going to be the best thing ever! Remember, that almost everything you experience will be normal, even though it can be scary...(of course bad cramping and bleeding isn't normal) And everyone on this website is here for you if you ever need us! Congrats again! Yay! I'm 14 weeks on my second!

A book I found really helpful was Susun Weed's ,The Childbearing Year.

moya you should go to the doctors, just to be on the safe side. if there's no bleeding i wouldn't be too worried.

Thanks Cheese, I am going for an ultrasound on the 29th of this month. Then I'll know exactly how far along I am. Also I have to get blood tests next week. I am a little nervous but extremely hopeful that all will be well. My fiance is hoping for a boy. I don't mind either way, as long as my baby is healthy.
I went and saw my pregnant friend yesterday and we pushed our bellies together so they could play LOL
