Having a BABY!!

Hello, everyone. I havn't posted in a long time. But I just found out last week that I am going to have a baby. Here is my question has any one had one since surgery? And if so, any suggestions on how to keep my energy level up? I feel tired all the time and I am scared to eat, but I know I need to. I guess I am looking for any suggestions?? HELP!!! I want a healthy baby, BUT I don't want to gain to much weight.

Julie, Congradulations to you. I hope you are fine and healthy. I think there is a forum on Pregnancy. If you look on the Main page you may find it.I am sure that there you can get helpful hints. I am sure you will be fine in your food choices and you know already what food is good for you and what is bad.. You will be fine.My baby is going to be 30 so that department is long forgotten in my head Keep us posted OK Lorraine

Another gal who had her surgery in 2003 just gave birth to twins last week. I don't know if Andrea ever posted here though. She did just fine & the babies are doing well, last I heard, although they are small due to coming a bit early. Check the forum for those that are pregnant for suggestions & encouragement. Congratulations. Dixie

Congratulations Julie....I think there is a pregnancy forum on this site... luvitsunnyv

Hi Julie, I had amy baby on March 29th. Make sure you take B12--that will help and take your vitamins religiously. I was horrible at taking my vitamins prepregnancy, but once I was pregnant I got much better at it. I didn't gain any weight with my pregnancy until about month 6. Just make sure you are eating healthy and everything should be fine. In all I gained 35 pounds, but I have lost all but 10 pounds since having her. I had a c-section so I haven't been able to exercise yet. Congrats on being pregnant! If you have any questions, feel free to ask or email! [email protected]
