congratz yourfriend! what did you name him?
Pyari when I had my 2nd one a month ago, it was horrible with my older son bc he was crying like a baby all day long! Now he is much better and likes his sister around all the time, wants to hold and kiss her.
By the way how far along are you now. If I remember you are due next month?

Re: Pregnancy
wow, its amazing how each n avery pregnancy differs, im expecting my second baby he/she is due end of january
my first a baby boy well the pregnancy was ok in the first 1.5 trimester but aftr that it got worse the sickness, the pain in my back n numbness of my left leg, not to mention the horrific birth i had, so i am kind of dreading this ones birth n labour, i had 2 vaso vagal attacks while delivering my son with which i almost went into a coma the second time, but to see him aftrwards well it was just amazing, i saw him when he was two hours old coz thts when i regained conciousness
but Allah SWT behthar kare ga n i just pray that HE will give me and anyone expecting a healthy baby
Neera: Yes I am due next month, inshallah! I just pray that everything goes by well. You didn't have anyone there with you to watch ur first child???
yourfriend: Names are so hard to decide on....
sweetu: Inshallah hopefully your experience will be better than the first. There are some dua's you should read everyday. Try reading surah Yaseen everyday if you can. Inshallah that should make things easier.
Pyari I had my mom with me but still it was horrible because my son was acting really weird. But that's normal I guess when you have been the only one for 3 years and all of a sudden this newcomer takes parents attention.
At least u had ur mom there...that probably made u feel better. I was reading in an article once that u should try to special treat ur older child esp if they start acting up, just so they will try to accept the new baby. How is ur baby doing now?
Re: Pregnancy
im thinking about the same thing hw will my eldest one react when the new bby arrives:hmmm:
pyari-so hw long have u got left then, n hws time going
I have about 28 days left. I am getting exhausted with all this weight. And I feel hot too.
Neera: Whether u have boy or girl inshallah I hope Allah gives u a healthy baby. I am having trouble finding a site where they have baby names too. Some websites give one meaning and when I look at another site it will give kind of a different meaning for the same name...I am going to ask my older sis for a baby book with names. Nuzhat: Surprises are fun too....but I want to go baby clothes shopping so I am probably going to try to find out. Mashallah all of the names you chose are really cute. I like the name Bilal. You should look at the name with the best meaning and chose that one. horizon: I never experienced any pain....
Question: Does anyone know how to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy? I know my body is really itchy but my mom told me not to itch myself otherwise it will cause more stretch marks....any other ideas on how to prevent it or reduce the already started marks???
I agree with your advice........Getting pregnant can be the easiest or most frustrating event in life.
All these years I tried to avoid pregnancy and now I am ready to have one. There are lots of questions I have about getting a being pregnant.
I wanted to share a new resource I found about pregnancy and having baby.

Re: Pregnancy
asmaosman, nothing you eat will make you have a 'gora' baby. That's just nonsense. Please eat healthy and focus on having a healthy baby rather than a gora baby.
I know this one lady who had posters of european babies all over her bedroom and she would carry coconut with her and munch on it all day. Unfortunately for her, she never had a gora baby. Instead of loving her child, she cried her eyes out in the hospital room when she had her kid.
Anyway, You must eat fruits, veggies, dairy products and protein (fish, chicken, etc.). Try mixing fruits with milk (as in a milkshake) if you can't eat fruits by themselvs. Or have some yoghurt. Danone yoghurt is delicious. You'll be surprised how many things you did not like eating before that you will start to love during pregnancy. I started eating porridge every day and before I would never touch it.
The first and last trimesters are the hardest. First trimester, cause your body and insides are changing and you have no clue what is going on, horrible mood swings, nausea, diarrhea, being by yourself with no other female support ... it's really, really hard. It's especially scary when it is your first and you are by yourself in a foreign country. Now you are in your third month, you have a few weeks to go and inshallah things will start feeling better. I felt like crap until my fifth month and then it got better. Last trimester has its own challenges cause you're just so big and tired and you have to stay stress-free. I still do my exercises everyday though. It's just one of those things you have to do for yourself and your baby.
Focus on being healthy for you and your baby. Remember, by the time you reach your last trimester, the baby can feel everything you are feeling. It can even hear your voice. So talk to your little one and try and be happy. Keep all negative thoughts away and don't get yourself into stressful situations .... stress for you is stress for your baby! Everything you feel, the baby will feel it too.
There is this great documentary out there called In the Womb by National Geographic.
All future/expecting parents (mothers and fathers) should download it.
