CONGRATULATIONS! I have had 5 babies...and I always got pretty sick at the beginning! If you tend to get sick, make sure you separate your food from your liquids.  That really helps! And DO YOUR KEGELS! They are worth it! Like I said, I had 5 children and I have no problems with leaking ever!!! Have fun and enjoy this time!!!

Awesome! I have two kids. I was sick the whole time, five times a day or more. Every time I tried to take my prenatal pills I throw up instantly, my body has never liked vitamins. If you have morning sickness they have ginger candies that help and I think its call Emotrol (not bad for the baby, comes in cherry and lemon, you take it every 15 mins until your not feeling sick anymore). That or you can shave some fresh ginger into some water, and let it soak over night. Drink it the next day. Also don't by to many new born clothes, cause they grow out of those ones fast. The first year goes fast with clothes. Buy some in each size, then at 12 months you can normally use those for a bit. Also with the first one it is hard, but let others hold the baby when they are their so you can rest. Do not hold the baby to much though, cause if they don't get alone time when they get older they don't let you do anything. Also sometimes babies just cry, so don't rush over to it even though you will really want to. After 3 months, if you haven't gone out alone, go to a movie or something with your hubby. I cried the whole time, but when we got back and my sister gave me my son back I realized he was fine. It helped me alot with over worrying about him.

May God bless you and your baby and the baby's father. My advice would be to be sure to take your vitamins. 

[lucky382001]

Make sure you eat right. take your vitamins and get enough rest and of course keep all your doctor check ups. And remember no question is a stupid one if you have any concerns ask your doctor.

I remember towards the end of my pregnancies that it helped to sleep on my side with a little pillow to support my belly.

Congratulations!  This is the most amazing experience ever!  I have 3 sons and can't believe how quickly the time goes.
I am amazed at how fast they are growing up.  Take time to enjoy the simple, everyday things as well as the big milestones.
In the blink of an eye, your baby will be going to school:(.  I took tons of pictures and videos knowing that would be all that would be left of them from those stages.  Enjoy and God bless!

Congratulations! Take care of yourself, and enjoy all the pampering that you get. When the baby arrives, he/she becomes the center of attention.
