First timer introduction

Hello fellow bumpies!
My name is Jennifer and I am 5 weeks pregnant. My due date is dec 10th and I've very excited to be growing a little human of my own. Since I found out I am pregnant I have been losing weight. My boobs are getting bigger and are extremely tender but I weigh the least I have in years. I am eating as much as I can but I find that my appetite is lacking lately. Even if I want to eat, sometimes it's hard. I have also been having dreadful sleep and I don't know if it's because I quit smoking cigarettes and marijane as soon as I found out I was with child. Any advice, tips, or comments would be greatly appreciated. I'm excited to go through this journey with all of you.

  • Hi! I'm Kirsten, first time being pregnant! I'm 26 years old. My Due date is Dec 3rd. I don't feel a thing! Some minor cramping every once in awhile, but that's it. Makes me nervous since I have yet to have any other symptoms. Congrats on quitting smoking, I've been smoking for 8 years, and I'm having the hardest time trying to quit. I usually smoke almost a pack a day, I'm down to only about 6-8 cigarettes a day which is better, it's just so hard to quit! This has been my biggest stressor since finding out in expecting. I'd love any tips anyone may have!

  • Hi! I am due Dec 10th as well! I am having the opposite issue. I get hungry every couple hours, so no advise there. The only time I have ever had appetite issues during preg is at the very end when everything is so tight in there. Even with morning sickness I get hungry, I just don't want to eat because I don't want to risk "revisiting" my meal, so I have always just forced myself to eat. Each Mom and each preg is diff, some get an increase in appetite and some get a decrease. Kudos on quitting smoking! It is not easy to do! Congrats and welcome!!
