Hi everybody,
I am from Gurgaon.Congrats on your 1st pregnancy. i am 16 weeks pregnant.I have some problems that my doctor is giving me iron, calcium and some multi vitamins and inspite of that i am feeling some weekness, lazy and pain in my legs(less strength in my legs). I can' t stand or even walk for a long time and feeling sleepy all the day.Are you feeling the same or what? I am Thalasemia Minor so my doctor is giving me iron for a week in a month.In 16th week(4th month) should my stomach increase in size or in which month or week it will increase?I have lots of question in my mind.In which posture should i sleep in this month?
All the best. Please share your experiences with me. From where are you? sudha replied. yes dont worry so much ...all is fine these minor discomforts will happen...
were u over weight before u got preg ... or are u exering ur self too much???? if ur leg pains too much when ever u r siting prop up ur leg to a small chair
if ur short staured by the end of the 1st trimister ur belly will be showing .... like im quite tall my belly was widely visible in my 6th mnth...
as ur baby is growing in size try to sleep on ur left avoid the right side but never lie straight on ur spines
yes being tierd always is also normal now ur body is wrking double for u and ur baby...
only eat well, rest enough , drink enough water and be happy
do breathing exercise everyday it will calm ur mind
take care

pari replied. Hi Neeti, Please do not worry so much. I am also taking calcium and iron tablets - still feel week and lazy all the time. My energy levels have gone considerably down. I think this is a part of pregnancy as our body is working doubly hard to nourish the new life inside. Please take a good diet, add vegetables and milk - curd in your diet and you should feel better. I am still having first trimester problems like nausea, vomittings, bitterness and excess salivation and trying to cope up with all these with my office work. I have started showing up little - though only I can notice this and not anybody else. I think we will start showing up 20 weeks onwards (specially first timers). So, do not panic and enjoy your pregnancy. Take good care of yourself.
