    If your looking for some pregnant mfp buddies, you can add me. I'm about 9 weeks along. I have an estimated Due date of DEC 25, Christmas day (It's funny, if you know that my first baby was due Nov 25, 2010, which just happened to be Thanksgiving day that year.) I go it to the doctor Friday for my 1st appointment and an early Utra Sound. I'll get my official due date then.

    Seriously if you need a friend. I gained 50 pounds my 1st pregnancy and am starting this one 10 lbs heaver that I started the first one. I could use all the support I can to make sure I don't gain too much weight. I don't want to end up a big fat cow!

    Congratulations!

    A few words to the wise.... get prenatal vitamins and start taking them. They can get pricey, but some of the cheaper brands are just as good. You can also ask for a prenatal vitamin prescription to be called in for you prior to being seen for your first appointment. Some OBs are OK with that, others aren't. Mine was, so I got $30 vitamins for $5 a month.

    Also, you can (and should) keep exercising moderately until your body tells you not to do so anymore (usually 2nd to 3rd trimester). Walking is a great form of exercise when you are pregnant.

    Congratulations! I was due January 24, 2012 and had my baby boy on January 12th, so our dates are really close. Take care of your self, physically and emotionally, enjoy every single moment. Some days you'll feel great, others.. like *kitten*, but it's all worth it when your little miracle is here.

    Congratulations, that is great news. I found out in May, baby born January 20th. But that was 5 years ago, lol. I have 6 kids. Stay healthy, do moderate exercising, eat healthy. Good luck

    I looooove the support here! Thank you guys so much!

    I have been taking prenatal vitamins and have done a COMPLETE overhaul of my food choices and I plan on exercising still. Although I'm sad because I was 5 day in to JM 30 Day Shred :( I'm going to start swimming about twice a week too.

    UK peeps, I know it's ridiculous that the US doesn't have healthcare like you guys do. Our health care system is fuuuuuuuucked up. But I'm very thankful for Medicaid until I can get private health insurance, hopefully through the jobs I'm trying to get.
