Hello Mumsnet - newbie alert!

[LRMadre]

Hello folks,

I'm completely new to Mumsnet! So wanted to say hello. Excited to be here and start interacting with fellow mums / mums to be.

I am 13 weeks pregnant with my first baby. Not properly showing yet, but I'm sure that will come soon.

If you're at the same stage pregnancy as me, it would be great to hear from you. Symptoms you might be experiencing, feelings, fears etc.

Thanks!

Hey I am around 9 weeks gone and I am exhausted ! I have to have a sleep every afternoon it’s crazy.
Only thing I can manage to eat is chicken soup and bread and chocolate- hope this doesn’t last long!
I find lemon juice helpful for nausea :)
How are you getting on?

Hi Lj123x! Yes, I felt exhausted at that time. Lucky for you to be able to nap!

My nausea is now gone (touch wood) and I'm starting to feel better. My bump is definitely starting to show now, so I'm going shopping to find some simple maternity clothes that will hopefully last me through to third trimester.

Good luck with nausea (it will go I promise) - sip lots of water and rest whenever you can xxx
