I'm about 8 or 9 weeks pregnant with my first. I've also had RA for the past 11years. I'm 26yrs old. I'm not getting lots of symptoms only nausea which can be sorted by eating something and I've had period type pain for the past few weeks but thats even going off now.
It doesn't feel very real at the moment. Is that a 'normal' feeling?
With the RA I'm only allowed to take steroids to control it but I'm a bit worried I'm going to have an elephant baby!
Also we're off to our booking appt with the midwife in a couple of weeks. Can I ask to hear the heartbeat so it seems more real?
Sorry lots of questions!!
