I'll say a little prayer for you.

I wouldn't recommend sleeping on your stomach. I read somewhere that you shouldnt. The best way to sleep is on your left side. My friend has also told me the same thing.

Hi justine,

Its good to hear your dad is Filipino. I am also a Filipino and am 17 weeks pregnant. When is your due date? Thanks for the message.

Justine...I am not going to pretend to have anything profound to say about your situation. I don't know you or your husband and would hate to give any unsolicited advice. I sympathize with you though and my heart goes out to you. He certainly should not have thrown anything at you or near you. If it makes you feel any better my husband and I work together too and he told me he hates me at work the other day...he does crap like that somewhat frequently. Right now I just have to get through it all. Take care, Kara

Justine, sorry you are going through that. You need to do whatever is best for the baby and you. Before I got remarried I was a single mom and it's not easy, but I know my son was better off because it. Also keep in mind, he will still be in your life somehow if you do leave him because he's the dad. Pregnancy and babies cause a lot of stress maybe both you guys are stressed and your hormones are out of control, and he's not being sensitive to that. Just think about everything and why you married him in the first place and then try to make a decision when you are not angry

Honey, you are so young. It sounds like you may have made a mistake in marrying this guy. Go be with your dad or family for sure, but yes, you need to get out of there. Make sure, too, that you read "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands." Because as we all know, problems within a marriage aren't ever just one-sided. Make sure that you're doing everything right (and REALLY make sure) in your marriage. You're awfully young. This book basically explains to women that we are different than men and need to treat them as such ... They have different needs, etc. (Which are much simpler than ours.) Your preggers hormones aren't helping you out either. BTW, if he's physically abusive, then the book won't do you any good and you need to just leave. Good luck with everything.

Don't put up with any crap from your husband. I went through the same sort of thing with my bf, and we need to set down the ground rules asap about how things are going to be around our babies. we need to do whats best for our babies, and make sure that it is brought into a supportive stable environment....if he is not going to be supportive and stable, your better off doing it alone! i know thats easier said than done, but this is no time for relationships angsts, the bub will be here before you know it! (sorry im just a little passionate on the matter coz im going through it too...) you will have plenty of support if not from him. Goodluck girl, just remember whose more important out of ur baby and ur man!

Hey, do you have an IKEA near you? they have some really cool space saving storage and bedding options... haven't looked at their baby stuff yet, but most of the things they sell are cute and reasonably priced... if nothing else, check out their online catalog just to get ideas.

Wow! Sounds so similar to my situation. I was married for 10 years and had two girls, got a divorce and started dating my partner now. I was preg a little over a year ago and he also didn't want the baby. We fought non stop and he was so set on an abortion. It killed me because I wanted a baby w him and thought he felt differently. I ended up doing it and never have forgive myself. Biggest mistake of my life! I got pregnant a few months later and ended up having a MC at 10 weeks. That was 8 months ago and here I and preggers again. All of this has been such a roller coaster ride and I'm learning may lessons. I keep thinking things will get better, he never wanted kids and has been pretty supportive so far but were from two different worlds and I don't think anythings ever going to change either. Were not married and have been dating a couple of years. I don't want to move in w him or get married just because we have a baby on the way. In my gut I know I'm selling myself short of the family and happiness I've always wanted. I have been seriously considering ending our relationship for good. I know it will be hard but I can do it! This baby is a blessing in my life and I'm going to be the best mom I can with or without him!

hopeforharley - Sunday, 13 July
Hang in there! I'm struggling in my relationship as well and it's not fun! Try to stay positive for you and the baby, it will get better I promise. I don't know what the weathers like in Utah, but in Cali it's beautiful!

Arianna - Sunday, 13 July
Justine, have you heard of the bella bands? They are a little cheaper and you can wear all the pants you have now throughout your pregnancy. Try googling it to see if they sell them near you. I bought mine at HEB but I think those are only in Texas

cymboliqua - Saturday, 12 July
justine i know how you feel about not haviing a proper nursery for the baby- we also live in a one bedroom and its pretty tight and our lease it up around the same time as yours also we have two cats so its like the baby has to go in our room but i dont want my cats to be all over him so what to do??? but we just look forward to the lease being up and we are getting a two bedroom then. its sucks now cuz you want that whole experience of bringing the baby home and putting him in his crib but thank goodness you have a place of your own to bring the baby to right.... so i know its hard but just remember a bassinet in the room is more intimate and you would be right next to the baby like he was sleeping right next to you. and you cant get any better than that.

kasey9533 - Saturday, 12 July
I agree.....and that sounds cheaper and i'd try it, you'll know if you dont need to wear them anymore feeling uncomfortable, i'd try it, i sell something like that and had some serious thought into them myself, i wish i read this before and i probably would of bought them lol....i guess i was scared. And one thing i thought i would hate the most is maternity pants my size with stretchies but once i got uncomfortable i wanted them and im sure they help too so you wont have to buy alot of pants either. I hope it works for you, and congrats!

hopeforharley - Saturday, 12 July
If you hate your love handles that bad $30 is worth spending if its going to make you feel better

Arianna - Thursday, 10 July
Wow a pound a week does sound like a lot. I have a friend that is 10 weeks ahead of me and she has already gained 15 lbs, so it had me worried. We are almost due at the same time. Christmas babies!

rachyg - Thursday, 10 July
I can completely understand that. I hope everything goes really well with this pregnancy. My fingers are cross for you. Please keep in contact, as I would love to see a photo of you holding your first baby. xxoxox

cyndig - Wednesday, 9 July
Thank you so much!! And I am praying that you have a super healthy pregnancy, labor/delivery, and baby!!! You deserve it honey! this is too my 4th preg, my 1st was a m/c, then I had 2 girls. My 1st daughter passed away before her 2nd birthday, so technically I'm down to 4 preg's, 1 child. I cannot wait and I too feel the same as you, I want to treasure everything with this one and to me, any $$ is worth it!

Hey there. I just read your comment on the "week 15" about strech marks.
I have the same concerns as you! I too got some little white strech marks when I was 15 from a growth spurt...but they can hardly be seen now. I didn't get any strech marks with my 1st pregnancy {knock on wood LoL} and I am really really hoping to not get any this time around either!
I have been rubbing on cocoa butter lotion since day one of my pregnancy....and also keeping your weight gain slow & steady helps alot as well.
With my first pregnancy I drank TONS of water because they say that also helps.
And I know what you mean about seeing all those celbs & their skinney non-strech mark bodies LoL....but then I just think about my beautiful little baby that will be comming in 5 months!...and all those thoughts about weight gain & strech marks go away

Asprin for swelling. Interesting. Im studying to be a nurse, and to me Asprin lowers fevers and acts as a blood thinner. The best thing to do for swelling is elevating the affected area. Is it your legs that are swallon?

MightyMouse25 - Monday, 7 July
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lauraloo - Sunday, 6 July
Hi if you read my profile, you'll see that I was prescribed Aspirin before I conceived. I am taking it until week 28. My consultant said you shouldn't take it too close to labour as it can cause excessive bleeding. Apparently it just improves blood flow to the womb. Hope that helps
