I feel like the absolute worst

Im 8 weeks pregnant. I can’t seem to enjoy chewing on sour stuff like recommend by my friends who are moms to not feel sick. I’ve been nauseous & giddy minutes when I wake up & mins before I go to bed. i don’t feel good in my own body and skin. I don’t understand what it wants or what’s triggering. I can really feel sick the whole day. I would cry because I didn’t think it would be..this tough. help..I feel like giving up

have you seen a gynae and mentioned this? will be good to bring it up to see what can be done

How do you guys bear the aching of your body during the first trimester?

I'm about 2 months and my body is aching especially my back since my work requires standing for a long time and doing some heavy work at times. How do the rest of you bear the pain without massage? i wanted to go for massage but I've read it's really not recommended unless the mother is 20 Weeks and above. My back and leg is really killing me😭 any suggestions?#1stimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls #firstbaby

I sit whenever I got the chance.

Hi mummies.. I will be a mum of two soon.. my child will be exactly 2 years apart. I gave birth in 2021, with emergency csect. As I went through a lot of grey snapshots of my labour, after birth I prolly had a mild depression or baby blue. It took me months to recover. Even though I was traumatised, I do want to have another child. Now that I’m pregnant for my second one, because of my traumatised moments during labour from the previous one. I right away wanted my labour to be csect. Because maybe I know how the process works and such. But people around me ask me to go for natural birth. I felt disheartened and taken aback because they don’t know what I went through and it’s traumatic. Therefore I don’t want to go through natural birth because I don’t know what to expect and I don’t want to go through another traumatising moments again. If anyone can share you thoughts or views, so that I can enjoy my second pregnancy in peace and happy. 🥺🥺

I had natural birth for #1 and #2. But now, I am thinking of c sect for #3 cos I am not sure if my backache can take it. I took epidural for my first 2 pregnancies. So I am wondering if with c sect, I can avoid epidural.

Any gynae gave go ahead for sashimi?

My gynae says is OK to eat raw sashimi and half boiled eggs during pregnancy. Just wondering if any of you have similar advice or the exact opposite?

Everything in moderation is fine. And only dine at reputable restaurants!

Nutrition in trimester 1

Anyone feeling bad that they are not eating the most nutritious food due to morning sickness?

one of the gynaes told my friend to eat whatever possible if morning sickness is very very bad. so even if it’s not the most nutritious.. it’s better than starving urself

Nausea and vomiting at work

Hi mummies, How do you cope with first trimester nausea and vomiting at work? Did it affect your performance and relationship with colleagues. Anxious mom here, will be going through a traineeship programme at work soon.

Sour gummies really help me! I take The Natural Confectionary’s Sour Chews. Only problem is that they melt and get a bit messy so I keep them in the fridge and take a few to work with me in a separate carrier. Sour skittles work too and are much less messy!
