Pregnancy Timeline Help
10th September 2010 by Babies No CommentsI aim to give you some guidance on how you should expect to feel while you are pregnant. You go through many different stages along the pregnancy timeline and a lot of these can be tough. I want to give you some reassurances because I am going through the same thing right now.
It was just after my period was due when I found out I was pregnant. That is quite early along the pregnancy timeline. My partner and I had been trying for a couple of months so I was checking regularly. At the beginning you don’t know how to feel. It can be quite a scary experience. It is a very worrying time.
I would advise that you go to the doctors as soon as you find out. There isn’t a lot they can tell you but it helps to know that. I was still very unsure when I left but at least I had an appointment booked with the midwife. When you do meet the midwife she should put your mind at ease. She went through everything on the pregnancy timeline with me.
Still not feeling pregnant? Don’t worry you soon will and when you do it will hit you suddenly. The thing that affected me the most was the tiredness. I was tired around the clock. I struggled to get up in the mornings and when I arrived home from work I was worse than useless around the house. All I did was lie on the sofa.
These weren’t the only pregnancy symptoms I suffered from. Everything smelled stronger and this made me feel sick a lot. It really put me off the flat that I was living in. I also had headaches and other joint aches.
I am now at the point in the pregnancy timeline where I have now passed those problems because I am in my 2nd trimester. I have been told that it gets tougher towards the end but I am ready for that.
