Oops..

Ok, take a breath. Everything will be fine! Get an appointment with an OBGYN soon, and they will help you have a healthy pregnancy.

You can wait to tell your husband until the pregnancy is confirmed by the doctor if you want. I know I couldn't keep such a thing on the hush hush...

It will be okay, like berry said take a deep breath. Call your ob/gyn explain the situation. It's not an ideal situation but I would bet it is not the worse. You will probably have to really be monitored since you can't really consume much. If it is confirmed you are pregnant remember babies are always a blessing so congrats and I wish you a healthy and happy pregnancy.

I got pregnant 5 months out and all was PERFECT! I'm sure my pregnancy was much healthier than it would have been had I not had surgery. I worked in more snacks to boost my calories (all very healthy and some ice cream to keep my sanity) and all went well. Delivered just days before my due day all natural at a birthing center and got up and walked out with my baby girl 3 hours after I had her. I gained 17lbs throughout and was back to ore pregnancy weight two days later. I continued to lose after with breastfeeding. (Keep those healthy calories up if you're planning to do so. It takes up A LOT of calories!) You'll be just fine!!! Congrats to you!!!!

Congrats!

Thanks ladies, I'm feeling better. I saw my baby heartbeat and all my fears went away! I'll be 8 weeks on Tuesday. Due 10/10. My doctors and dietician are going to help me have a successful pregnancy and I trust God; so I'll be fine! Thanks for the support.

How is your pregnancy going?
