Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well, after TTC after our last catastrophy, I can most proudly announce that we got the positive on a home test! We're so very excited seeing as today is our anniversary; but we know we're most definately not out of the ballpark for a nother month and a bit.

I've been doing some research and have already cut out alcohol and caffine in my diet and have been eating right; and am thinking about getting some of those prenatal vitamins....but is it too soon to be going to my Gynecologist? They say usually about 11-13 weeks; but thanks to my miscairrage before would it be wise to try and get in asap?

Needless to say; i've kinda known for a while now. I pretty much bat a 100 with the hella sore breats, urinating non stop, tired, moody and hormonal along with nausea (but thankfully no vomiting yet!) Hopefully this won't be an ominous sign of a long bout of the sickness!

Your first prenatal visit will likely be in the 10-12 week range, but you should call now and get things set up. Prenatals are a good idea to take when TTC as well. (Honestly, I may keep taking them indefinitely because I like them and have been on them non-stop for almost three years now.)

As for your miscarriage, you've only had one, so it's not something to be overly concerned about--meaning you don't have a history of miscarrying making it an issue that needs to be watched--but you should definitely mention it at your appointment. Many women miscarry at some point and have no issues later with pregnancy.

Congratulations! Can't wait to see you in the Preggers thread. smile
