Hi all...

let me start by telling you about my immediate family...

Its my husband, me and our to be born baby... I am 7 weeks and 1 day on now.

I had a m/c last june and I took it badly... this time I am sooo scared..

Both my husband and I really want this baby...the problem now is constipation... I really dont now how to deal with it... am doing the fiber part.. lots of water and fruits.. but not helping much... any one who has any ideas would help...

Finding this site was great... to get to know that others also are going thru the same problem.. makes me feel that it is not serious..

Hello again,

Thanks for all the support... have tried not to have any tablets or such till now... relying on natural fiber and water... fingers crossed..

Have my next doc appoint and scan on the 21st... excited and nervous...

I have never been a regular ( healthy) eater so this is taking some getting used to.. such as only the breakfast .. have to make a point of not forgetting...

but all this is worthwhile... if the baby is healthy... Touch wood.


June 6th 07: Am 15 + weeks today... feel MUCh better... the scare has not gone totally but I can finally talk about my baby.... I was so afraid before...

To give an update : I have had 2 scans since I wrote last.. one was my regular scan at 12 weeks... even then we could see the baby... all formed.. the Doc was really nice... she spent time focusing on each part and explaining hat is what... it is weird .. it is then that it hits you: I have a baby... a small human inside me"

The baby was so active that day... jumping around the place... really thought that with all that movement inside me I would feel some thing...

Dont know if it is corny but now everything makes sense... :)

Well I had another scan yesterday... had to get my husband out of office in the middle of the day... I started getting abdominal pains (Like churning... bad stomach type) but I got scared of how it would effect the baby.. the doc suggested that I visit Hospital and meet the Er doc and get a scan if needed... well we did and with gods grace all was good... and we got to see our baby again...:)

Well enough for now ... will write more often now....


here i My hubby and I...

Hello all moms to be...

Hope all is well with all. Before I say anything else ... I have to mention how much this site and every one on it has helped me. I support that you feel from here is great.. Thank you all.


Now for the latest... I was really worried lately as my last sugar test was very high... the doc had asked me to wait for another month and take another test.... well I got the results yesterday... AM in range.. what a relief.. I mean If I did have gestational D.. then we would have worked around it... but this makes it easier... cause for the first time I have the craving for sweet things like ice cream etc... usually Dont like them..:)

We have started talking to the baby and it feels great... am showing just a little... ( which is worrying as I am 17 weeks) will ask about that to the doc... My worry is that I am not eating right...

Will tell more soon.... Love to all.


hey girls.. how is every one...I ahve not updated my page for a long time now.. have been active on the site thou... becomes a reall imp part of your pregnant life:) I want to thank all of you for all teh support ...

Cant beleive I am 33 weeks now.. showing as well .. now ppl cant mistake me for gettig fat...:) it was funny earlier.... when a little was showing... ppl who did not know .. did not want to come over and ask.. thinking that may be I am just gaining weight..:)

Well finally another 7 + weeks to go... it has been good till now.. am still working... keeps the mind off worring..:) which is bound to happen if I stay at home... any way I got preg the month I joined my new job... so even my employers ahve been nice about it...have been with teh company for 8 months now and am just about 8 months preg.

am now in the process of figuring out what to pack in the hospital bag... have no clue.... My husband and I went shopping the other day... thought we would start small and pick up a few cloth nappies... well you should have been there ... this store.. had like 30 different types of nappies... in ALL sizes.... all I wanted was nappies for a new born..... immediatly called my mom (she lives out of town) and asked her to come early and help.. it was so over whelmening ...was planning to ask here to come closer to my due date but now I think a couple of weeks before the due date would be a good Idea... can help me get ready for the baby.... just that if my mom and husband get to gether .. they can drive me up the wall..... sit properly.... rest now.. eat this and eat that... between the two of them they would make me have about a liter of milk daily... but need nappy info:)

34 weeks...

getting there.... it is so great... i mea sometimes it is tough... but over all it feels good... It is amazing how many of my friends are preg.. met wiith another friend today.. his wife is also carrtying.. due about 3 weeks after us.

Amazing these are the kids that our baby will grow up with...

ahev heard that when you get closer to the due date you get into the nesting mode... well am not sure what it emna s .. but I am now into a cleaning mode.. we are not making a nursury or anything... but mum is coming over and wnat to get the house cleared for her .. also with all the baby stuff.. will need more space.. ... we have a two bed room house... and the extra ( for now) bed room is used as a stor room. currentlly.. with a lot of junk... amazing what you can end up with over time

Also I enjoyed going to office till now ... but these days latly All I want to do is stay at home... have enough strenght to go to work... but feel nicer at home... am pushing my self to go cause one it will give me more time at home latter and second going to office keeps a routine... proper diet , excerise etc...think the time is close...:)

So this week end we went baby shopping... ours and friends ( had a lot of cerimonies to attend) this time around it was better.. ahve gotten my head around what is avaliable and what is needed..:) finally... so if any one needs tips ... am avaliable:)

The baby is moving quite a bit... and anytime the baby does not move for about 30 mins or so.. I end up drining something sweet to induce movement... the movements are strong... guess the baby has grown and has lesser space to move around... it is amazing to see... Love to all the mommies... hope you have a great pregnancy....

hey there...well as for your bag...baby clothes and your clothes..babies toiletry. all your reports should be kept together. the hospital receipt were u going to deliver. carry some xtra bibs and some extra tiny napkins to clean the baby. breast pads...tats when u are not feeding so that u dont lactate. as of now i think that shld do.


iceage - Monday, 1 Oct
hey babes...well finally stopped working...what are your plans. now just chilling at my moms place. do u live with your in-laws? rest all is great.

Hi Namrata..
This is minakshi, congratulations on your pregnancy.. i am consulting a doc in manipal too... so just thought would leave u best wishes and hope to meet in manipal... :) take care...c ya..


OhBaby - Sunday, 30 Sep
i was also confused till i started shopping around and got salespeople to give me
few demos. the one i got is for heavy duty use and built to last. but it can be bulky, there are other lightweight versions that r easier on the back... i think i got the nesting instinct lately, suddenly started cleaning up, giving bags of unused clothes and items to charity or just throwing it out. ended up exhausting myself...silly of me. i just want the house to be ready for the baby. its nice u are enjoying ur work, usually mothers complain and cant wait for their maternity leave. is anyone joining u for the delivery?


OhBaby - Wednesday, 26 Sep
the travel system is about Dhs. 1,000 + (approx Rs. 11,000). it should cost roughly the same everywhere, or else they're charging inflated rates. graco has strong construction and most reviews on the net by parents who bought it were good. i got lucky to get a matching set by laura ashley. hey my friend delievered in manipal and she liked the labour ward, was v. happy with the whole experience. i'm doing good, its ramadan here and attending some iftar davats, since i'm pregnant i'm off the hook this year from hosting one myself thank god (due to the strain involved)..other than that, skin elasticity is going. funny thing is my stomach is growing the baby and my butt ends up with stretchmarks. i cant figure it out. let me know whats new with u... is ur mom joining u for the delivery?


sheetaldeep - Wednesday, 26 Sep
yeah namrata every day i feel as baby will come today as already i am feeling bit of pains and contractions but they eliminate after some time so probably i wont be able to make much longer now....i am dying to hold my little one ...even my daughter is crazy for a sibbling..hows things on ur side ..u are also not that far isnt..take care buddy :)


iceage - Wednesday, 26 Sep
hey darling...well i was due as the same day as you...but as per my last USG it has moved to 10 Nov. no idea now...got my next appointment on 9th oct 07...my doc will give me a proper date then.but as of now its 10 nov. how are things with you...u still working?


OhBaby - Tuesday, 25 Sep
hi...nice pic, i cant see the ones taken in goa? i got a few clothes, bibs, the basics, and a travel system... i've got a pic of it on my page. i've also heard that cribs are hardly used by some babies, esp in the first 6 weeks, so not sure what to do. most likely we'll get one cause my husband wants to get it. my friend's son used a moses basket which is another option and cheaper if the baby ends up with us more than in his/her own bed. i'd prefer to breastfeed anyday when compared to the hassle of bottle-feeding, including colic...... u dont have much longer to go... how do you feel? which hospital u going to?


Geniezwish - Monday, 24 Sep
hi how r things with you? Hope all all is going well at ur side. I am fine too and well talking about pains i do have back pain and now when i stand from a sitting position on laying position i feel pain on my lower abdomen. Probably the pressure is building up. In total i have gained 6 kg's till now. My baby moves alot...so when sometimes it does not move i panic but still wait for sign or poke at my tummy so it goes to the other side. Take care and let me know how things r with you. take care xx


sheetaldeep - Saturday, 22 Sep
yeah namrata i am trying to keep my head cool and relax but again some pains and discomfort will make me feel scared....anyways knowing that baby is doing fine bring all the satisfaction....doctors here have to say nothing about pains ....they are just dull....comparative to india...how r u keeping? hope u going smoothly with ur pregnancy...nice pics buddie:)..take care n keep posted.


Geniezwish - Friday, 21 Sep
HI namrata..how is it going? How is ur pregnancy going so far? Mine is well and hey ure 3 weeks ahead of me. R u enjoying ur pregnancy? Hope all goes well....i have started the 2 weeks appointmetn now n time will pass by faster. rest all is well..take care :)


sheetaldeep - Thursday, 20 Sep
hi namrata how r u doing? yeahi am having lots of pelvic pain and pressure which is so uncomfortable and cant do anything . probably this is bcoz i am in last weeks but i am really scared i will go in labour anytime so have started packing my bags...how r things with u?hope u doing fine..keep posted dear:)


OhBaby - Thursday, 20 Sep
yeah its real fun looking around, babies these days have such cute stuff. but i dont know whats really needed and whats not, i mean so much of it is just the parent's joy at decking out a nursery to the nines.. getting it 'all'. and i have space constraints so i have to think twice, i have a guestroom but my mom's going to be using that for her stay with me. i havent done anything either.... i feel unprepared. when do you plan to start? if they have a babyshop in blore, its a better deal than mothercare. and there's a baby store in shringar complex on m.g road, i went with my friend when she shopped there for her baby. You're lucky ur friends are having babies at the same time, you have playmates for your baby all ready isnt it? :) take care dear..


iceage - Thursday, 20 Sep
i know its great...but now it is just a wait...my due is moved to 10 nov so might have to quit early but dont know...got to go to the doc on the 9 oct so lets see what she says then i can decide...but really do not want to exert myself.take care and keep in touch


prettypriya - Thursday, 20 Sep
hi namrata...how r u doing?how's the baby?thanx for the compliment...i dont even know when i am gonna look like that again...i have put on a lot of weight...all b'coz i crave for sweats...well hopefully i'll get to know about the test results tomorrow.u should post some pics too and do let us know whats latest on ur end....take care


iceage - Wednesday, 19 Sep
hey there..how is everyting with you...till when do youplan to work? me thinking of quiting from mid october ...but lets see. rest all is great...


OhBaby - Wednesday, 19 Sep
I checked out some cribs in a babystore that we had to take a 45 min drive to reach, and we didnt even like the ones they had. ooh....chai, pakoras and blore rain, i can just picture it. what an awesome combination. i would have done the same, stayed in and enjoyed it... :)


OhBaby - Monday, 17 Sep
oh, strechmarks... along with losing my waistline, its another thing not looking forward to...i heard cocoa butter cream helps make the skin elastic to an extent. you know what i noticed, i have little purple veins on mylegs all of a sudden. and my face has puffed up big time. on the plus side it seems hair growth has slowed, thank god. i dont think u're alone, its hard to process all the changes in the mirror sometimes. oh well its part and parcel of pregnancy....did you do anything interesting in the weekend?


OhBaby - Saturday, 15 Sep
yes i think we should really enjoy our pregnancy - if my doctor would let me. she was so upset about my 4 kgs i got worried till i checked on this site and found out its normal really. anyways hope you are holding up ok with work, actually u must enjoy being busy and takes ur mind off every little ache and pain. u take care sweetie


OhBaby - Wednesday, 12 Sep
I had no idea there were stages till i came on this site and found out there was complete and marginal placenta previa. lets see what happens week 28, god wiling it will be ok. Will you be going for childbirth classes? i feel if i know whats going to happen i can mentally prepare myself... the weight gain is another worry isnt it?.... if you go to the Week by Week page and click on Weight Gain under pregnancy forum (at the bottom of the page) you can enter your details and it will calculate how much is recommended weight gain for you, according to your BMI, month by month. i'm overweight by about 1.5 kg for month 5, and can gain upto 35 pounds overall. let me know what your chart says. take care sweetie.


sheetaldeep - Wednesday, 12 Sep
thanks for ur assurance dear ....ust relying on God ...hopefully He is there to take care of my baby....hows ur health...hope u doing good . take care :)


iceage - Tuesday, 11 Sep
hey babes...how is everything with you...well i need to be on bed rest for the next one week as i have had a bad infection on my uterus...anyways rest all seems to be great..


OhBaby - Sunday, 9 Sep
y'know my doc never mentioned the no-exercise-sex thing but my mom and sis told me that and thanks for telling me too, its better to be cautious. if the low-lying placenta wasnt an issue we could have done mild exercise and squatting which helps loosen pelvic floor making delivery easy but none of that for us right now. i go for walks instead. its scary to read what other mom's go thru, the epidural bit sounds horrible.... dont read about it. and a VIP here sent me a link with a video of a live birth, strangely i wasnt so freaked out. maybe cause its a natural process whereas the other things just sound worse. well millions of women do this and i'm sure we will manage when the time comes. so lets see how it goes. how is your weight now are u feeling better about how much you weigh?


sheetaldeep - Sunday, 9 Sep
hi namrata thanks for ur word of concern ....i am really going through bad days and lots of pain....hopefully everythng will be fine once baby s here ..hows ur health...hope u doing fine ...take care n be in touch
