Am I getting enough????!
By iluvandy 2 Years, 9 Months Ago
Hi everyone! I need to be reassured I guess, I have been really nauseated and sick feeling all day and it gets worse in the evenings, but I have thrown up a total of 5 times since I have been pregnant, I am worried that my baby is not getting what it needs! Has anyone worried about this before? I went to the doctor and everything was great except I have lost 10 pounds and I was a little dehydrated. But I am able to keep the prenatal vitamins down because I take those right before I go to bed. But all day I feel like I just cannot eat, but I make myself. I just need your thoughts and opinions. Thanks everyone!

that's very normal for the first trimester. as long as you are keeping something down your baby will be fine. remeber you maybe be eating for 2, but the baby is still very very tiny and requires very little at this point.
Congrats btw, i didn't know you were pregnant!

dont worry honey ur fine, i suffered all the way thruu my pregnancy,and barely gained any weight at all, i was only 5 kilos heavier the day gave birth than my pre pregnancy weight.. ur baby will suck all the nutrients from ur body, so even tho U may feel like shit, ur baby is getting everything it needs..
best of luck Seaason

Ya, I agree with Seaason, I was sick 24/7 for the first 3 months. I didn't keep anything down. This is my first so that's the extent of my knowledge on the situation. I was wondering though... Seaason, you said you only gained 5 kilos from your pre-pregnancy weight. Do you know how much that is in pounds? Or does anyone?

I think it's like 11 pounds...but I could be wrong...You will be fine but maybe in the mornings try to stay in bed and drink some water and eat something in bed for me walking around made my morning sickness worse HIH good luck
