Anyway, even if someone did think you were overreacting, who cares. Its your body, your baby, and its very much wanted. Youre bound to feel protective, and tbh, youll probably find that theyre very understanding.
Try and relax as much as possible. Enjoy your birthday and take it easy
So your pregnancy is actually counted from before you actually concieved!!! It makes it easier for doctors to work out
it would probably make you 4 or 5 weeks pregnant I would guess.
It says 5 wks + 4 for the date you said :thumb:
You are supposed to avoid runny eggs though, undercooked meat, raw shellfish, certain soft cheeses and picking up catshit.
Apart from that DONT PANIC
I would go jumping around the streets (if snowing) in the snow flashing a big ring and shouting it from the rooftops.
But then again, I am crazy. :razz:
Well done though, Janjan!
Go to bed.
I hate to say it but I spent pretty much the first 14 weeks in a permanent state of exhaustion, in bed and asleep by 8pm every night, and an afternoon nap.
Your body is working superhard behind the scenes at the moment, so just take it easy.
Congrats, as well.
As for iron - you can either get tablets from the doctor, or you can get liquid supplements such as floradix or spatone, which do tend to be easier to absorb and less likely to make you constipated than the tablets, but tbh, as long as youre not already anaemic, then probably just having folic acid is enough, or a pregnancy multivitamin, which will have both iron and folic acid in it.
