Well here I am
Well first off I want to say hello and welcome! I'm very new to this so please be nice! I'm still on maternity leave but not for long and I have to say motherhood is great. Not always fabulous but it's a great experience. While it was easy to tell my family it was nerve wrecking to tell my boyfriend and his. Now I'm by no means a qualified contestant for 16 and pregnant but I wasn't sure how they would take it. I did tell him but it took me a few months to tell his family. It ended up not being anything like I thought it would be. Lol but I was nervous what can I say. My 1st trimester I was sick but my wonderful doctor gave me anti-nausea pills and they worked great! My 2nd trimester was great I had a little bump at the end of my 4 months, no stretch marks and we found out we were having a little girl! I was ecstatic! My 3rd trimester... what can I say at the end of my 7months I had gained too much too fast and I got stretch marks booo! I was waddling couldn't sleep anymore. I couldn't wait for her to be here already. Finally in November I stopped working my belly was very big. The last week of the month my plug came out (grooosss!), and I knew she would be here soon! A couple days went by and my due date was a day away. Well the night before my due date my water broke at 11 pm! I was about to go to sleep and felt what I can only describe as a little pop inside lol. I went to the bathroom and of course my water had broken!! I was shaking I was so nervous and my contractions started right away. I had been having braxton hicks for a few months but I KNEW these were the real thing! Its a horrible pain. I got ready waited for my boyfriend to shower and pack his little bag, my bag was already ready and we were off to the hospital! Gianna was born at 3:05pm that day. She was beautiful! My little angel was really here! That first month that she was here was difficult breastfeeding was difficult but manageable it took some time to get use to but nonetheless I did it. Our sleeping schedules were completely off, some adjusting had to be done, but she was here! I am so lucky for all the help from both families and all my friends! I can't say Thank You enough. Her 2nd month has been much easier she sleeps about 5 hours at night, lets me get ready in the morning and is very pleasant to take out with me. I love her more than I ever imagined possible. If you have any tips or want to comment pls feel free! I'd love to hear from your experiences I don't have too many friends with kids so it's nice to chat with other mommies! ok well it's Gianna's bathtime take care and have a good night!
