Temporary Child Custody

I have been pregnant with my first child for 16 weeks. People react differently to pregnancy and early on in the pregnancy timeline I found it difficult. A lot of people do struggle so dont worry if you feel the same. I hope that by telling my story it will help you a bit.

I started to get somes doubts when the exciting of finding out passed. I wasn’t worried about being ready to have a baby, I was worried that something might be wrong. When you are that early you do feeling like you are pregnant and with so much that can go wrong I was a little worried.

It doesn’t take long for you to start feeling pregnant. People say that this is the hardest part of the pregnancy timeline and with good reason. You will get morning sickness and this can be at any time of the day. You start to ache all the time and the worst thing for me was the tiredness. I was always tired. I really struggled to get up in the mornings and all I wanted to do is sleep when I got back from work.

There were some days when I did feel all right and didn’t have to lie on the sofa all day. I would then panic, “what if something was wrong?” I would think again. As long as I felt pregnant I felt ok.

I was very nervous before going to my twelve week scan. I didn’t like the waiting in the hospital, I began to worry. When I was called in and could see the baby on the screen I was very happy. My little baby was on the screen and it was wriggling around a lot.

It is true what they say. The further along the pregnancy timeline the better it is. I am now over 16 weeks and feel a lot better. I have more energy and I don’t feel sick anymore. I am now investigating things I need to by for the baby and it is so much fun.
