First time mom, very overwhelmed

Meg900 · December 2014

Hello fellow August mommy's this is my first baby(just like a lot of you) I have been back & forth at my doctors office because at first they didn't see anything then, they did but it didn't align with my last menstrual cycle. On top of that with my family medical history and my own for that matter they have been taking blood and doing test. I go back to my doctor on Friday but I've been cramping and don't know what to make of it. I work two jobs and am a full time student could this be all in my mind? Oh and my skin itches like crazy any home remedies for that strange symptom?

If you weren't tracking your ovulation, then it's possible you aren't as far along as you thought, or are farther along. Blood tests and ultrasounds will help determine your EDD.

Don't worry about the cramping if it isn't ridiculous... Call your doctor/nurse to let them know if it is worrisome. If you start bleeding like a period, call them because that could be a miscarriage. Don't be afraid to call when you get bad symptoms. Check out the remedies and pills that are ok while pregnant.

Everyone's pregnancy is different, just take it one day at a time!
