[blparent] Baby on the way

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Melissa,

Congrats! We waited the entire first trimester before telling anyone,
and let me tell you, it was rough. I wanted to tell anyone including
strangers, LOL! I didn't start showing until around six months, so at
least my body didn't give it away, smile.

My nausea almost did though. I had what Kate Middleton did and was
hospitalized twice for it. Fortunately, the minute my second trimester
started, the nausea stopped. Other things replaced  it like swelling and
exhaustion, but at least I wasn't throwing up buckets. Each experience
is different though including a woman's own pregnancies. Good, old
fashioned saltines and ginger-ale were the only thing that helped at
all, but even this remedy didn't do much due to my condition.

I wish you the best of health. And this is a great place to ask
questions. You can always email me off-list at bpollpeter at hotmail.com if
you wish.

Bridgit

Hi everyone,
This is Melissa Treaster (Burch) and I wanted to let you know that I am
Expecting!!!!! The hubby and I could not be happier. I am only about
five weeks but I just could not hold in the news anymore! So I am sure
there will be lots of new mommy questions I will have. The first thing I
will share is that My nausea has been horrendous but after an ER trip
and getting Nausea medication I am feeling sooo much better. I Also
found at Target today vitamin B6 candies but they have them behind
counter you can suck on and they helped tremendously you take them every
six hours. I will keep you all posted. 
Thanks, 
Melissa
