</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p> "this is my first pregnancy and ive been told unless your pains are accompanied by bleeding then theres nothing wrong its just your uteris growing. i will copy something ive just read off treasures, might ease your mind... <br /> <br />Before pregnancy, your uterus was about the size of a fist, after six weeks the size of an orange. You can actually feel the growth. It feels like cramping or even pain in your lower abdomen or at your sides; somewhat like period pains. There is nothing to worry about – but if the cramps or contractions are accompanied by bleeding, you should call your LMC. <br /> <br />Hope that helps, congrats on your pregnancy :)" </p> <p class="nM"> <a href="http://www.treasures.co.nz/Explore-your-stage/Story/?contentId=1200320">Read all comments on this story</a> </p> </div> <div class="side"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl0_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContainer" class="profile type-medium"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl0_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContent" class="details stage-pregnant location-new_zealand offline "> <a class="avatar"> <img id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl0_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_imgAvatar" src="/Global/02_New%20Zeeland/Images/avatar_woman.png" style="border-width:0px;" /> </a> <a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl0_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlUserName" class="username" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=366262&noiframe=1');return false;">Jamie G</a> <span class="extra"></span> <ul> <li class="status">offline</li> <li>5 stories</li> <li>0 recommendation</li> </ul> <em></em> <dl> <dt class="stage">Stage:</dt> <dd>Pregnant</dd> <dt class="location">Location:</dt> <dd>auckland</dd> </dl> <span class="summary"><span>8 weeks pregnant, <br />from</span> auckland</span> <p><a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl0_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlViewProfile" class="more" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=366262&noiframe=1');return false;">View profile</a></p> <div class="gfx-b"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </li> <li class="border" style="width: 680px;"> <div class="content"> <a href="http://www.treasures.co.nz/Explore-your-stage/Story/?contentId=1177650" class="story-title">when does morning sickness start?</a> <p> i know everyones different but im 5 weeks and waiting for morning sickness to strike, does anyone know when it usually starts?

I myself felt that way with my first pregnancy. In time you begin to adjust and get use to the idea of having a baby. In the first trimester your hormone levels are everywhere you may find your more tired, moody & morning sickness may strike you aswell, after your body gets use to the idea of being pregnant those feelings usually go away & everything goes back to normal. From around 18-21weeks you will feel your babys first movements sort of like butterflies as your pregnancy progresses the babys movements become more obvious. I fyou haven't already you should start to think about who you would like to be your midwife? Perhaps your sister will suggest her old midwife .. It's best to ask around for a good midwife rather than end up with a useless one :) once you find which LMC (Midwife) you would like to share your journey with give her a call that way she'l organise a book in time with you to sort out Blood test & a scan to confirm your due date & also personal details and another time to meet. <br /> <br />I found the contractions during labour were the worst feelings ever, it's like strong period cramps and really bad back aches. When the baby is being born though it almost feels like a chinese burn? Like as the head comes out .. But then as soon as the shoulders are born the baby just falls out and all that pain magicly goes away and it all seems worth while :) but every woman is different. I hope this info helps and you enjoy your pregnancy. Goodluck for the future :) <br /> <br />Tay" </p> <p class="nM"> <a href="http://www.treasures.co.nz/Explore-your-stage/Story/?contentId=1110451">Read all comments on this story</a> </p> </div> <div class="side"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl4_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContainer" class="profile type-medium"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl4_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContent" class="details stage-pregnant kids-2 location-new_zealand offline "> <a class="avatar"> <img id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl4_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_imgAvatar" src="/EPiServerCommunity/Modules/ImageGallery/Thumbnails/91/3372991/67500_411824.jpg" style="border-width:0px;" /> </a> <a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl4_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlUserName" class="username" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=573783&noiframe=1');return false;">Tay94</a> <span class="extra"></span> <ul> <li class="status">offline</li> <li>1 stories</li> <li>0 recommendation</li> </ul> <em></em> <dl> <dt class="stage">Stage:</dt> <dd>Pregnant</dd> <dt class="kids">Kids:</dt> <dd> Kassius, 3 years, 5 months<br />Rome, 16 months </dd> <dt class="location">Location:</dt> <dd>Hamilton</dd> </dl> <span class="summary"><span>14 weeks pregnant, <br />from</span> Hamilton</span> <p><a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl4_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlViewProfile" class="more" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=573783&noiframe=1');return false;">View profile</a></p> <div class="gfx-b"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </li> <li class="border" style="width: 680px;"> <div class="content"> <a href="http://www.treasures.co.nz/Explore-your-stage/Story/?contentId=925790" class="story-title">'DONT EVER GIVE UP..BE COURAGEOUS'</a> <p> Identical Twins born 2006 My Youngest twin dies at three months - Im never going to have kids again, I couldnt even imagine it..

had baby. best advice i can give you to lessen the soreness is to make sure you pass soft stools by drinking plenty of fluids and eating plently of fibre rich foods, Phloe which is a fibre supplement is safe to take during pregnancy and may help. also try soaking you bum in warm water to help soften them i add salt to help cleanse area and also try freezing pads with witch hazel ( you van get it from your pharmacy) on them in you freezer and applying one when your bum is really sore (aka after birth)." </p> <p class="nM"> <a

</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p> "I have been insulin-dependant diabetic for 20 years and am currently 5 weeks pregnant with baby number 3. I have 5 injections a day and test my blood sugar up to 10 times a day during pregnancy. Having insulin isnt the worst thing in the world. At the end of the day, it's about having a healthy baby. The complications of poorly managed diabetes is not nice, so if you are offered insulin just take it. And the bonus for you is - after your baby is born, your diabetes will go away. <br /> <br />You should still be able to birth where you want to. Question their recommendations and decisions, and push for what you want. But also, have faith in the medical team as they are doing the best thing for you and your wee baby. <br /> <br />Good luck, keep us posted." </p> <p class="nM"> <a

Yes a little too fond of bread and savouries!! So 2nd time round was concious of it and only gained 11kg. This time around I hope to do the same -running around after 2 little ones does help - but for me it's all about making good food choices and knowing that it took me well over 9 months the first time round to get it all off is pretty motivating too. Good luck to you all!! :)" </p> <p class="nM"> <a href="http://www.treasures.co.nz/Explore-your-stage/Story/?contentId=593593">Read all comments on this story</a> </p> </div> <div class="side"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl9_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContainer" class="profile type-medium"> <div id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl9_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_pnlContent" class="details stage-pregnant kids-3 location-new_zealand offline "> <a class="avatar"> <img id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl9_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_imgAvatar" src="/Global/02_New%20Zeeland/Images/avatar_woman.png" style="border-width:0px;" /> </a> <a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl9_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlUserName" class="username" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=17999&noiframe=1');return false;">Aimee</a> <span class="extra"></span> <ul> <li class="status">offline</li> <li>0 stories</li> <li>0 recommendation</li> </ul> <em> </em> <dl> <dt class="stage">Stage:</dt> <dd>Pregnant</dd> <dt class="kids">Kids:</dt> <dd> Will, 5 years<br />Jake, 3 years, 8 months<br />Finn Charlie Paterson, 10 months </dd> <dt class="location">Location:</dt> <dd>Ashburton</dd> </dl> <span class="summary"><span>Pregnant, <br />from</span> Ashburton</span> <p><a id="ctl00_FullContent_Main_PageContent_ucArticleStoryList_lvArticlesStories_ctrl9_lvComment_ctrl0_ucAvatar_hlViewProfile" class="more" onclick="changeTopLocation('http://www.treasures.co.nz/Community/People/Public-Profile/?userId=17999&noiframe=1');return false;">View profile</a></p> <div class="gfx-b"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </li> </ul> <div class="nav-list bT"> <div class="fR"> <ul class="nav-pagination jspager"><li class="first"><span>First</span></li><li class="previous"><span>Previous</span></li><li class="this">Page 1 of 8</li><li class="next"><a title="Next" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$FullContent$Main$PageContent$ucArticleStoryList$pgrBlogs$ctl07','')">Next</a></li><li class="last"><a title="Last" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$FullContent$Main$PageContent$ucArticleStoryList$pgrBlogs$ctl09','')">Last</a></li></ul> </div> </div> <div class="gfx-b"></div> </div> </div> <!--// CONTENT --> <!-- SIDE //--> <div id="side"> </div> <!--// SIDE --> </div> <!--// MAIN -->
