Lisette
Hi, I'm Lisette, 29 years old! Pregnant with our first baby (it's a boy) at 20+1 weeks now! Due date is Dec 30.
I'd love to connect with other moms and exchange tips and experiences about pregnancy.

    Congratulations, Lisette!
    Feel free to read and write along... I'm pregnant for the first time, now 10+3 weeks.
    Tips are always welcome! Giving them myself probably isn't really an option yet

    Hey, congratulations to you too, that's so nice! Your first baby! Here too, it's the first one (unfortunately had 3 miscarriages already). How are you feeling?
    For me, the first 16 weeks were really a drama, very tired, so I slept a lot! Now it's going a bit better, but I'm having a lot of back pain (on top of chronic back problems) and my pelvis is starting to hurt!????

    Wow, 3 miscarriages, that sounds really tough... can I ask how many weeks along you were each time?
    I'm tired but that's already getting a lot better, a bit nauseous and otherwise not many weird or unpleasant symptoms
    I do wake up regularly during the night and I normally never do that I like to sleep through in one go but unfortunately that's not the case right now. But all in all it's still manageable like this

    Yeah, that was quite an intense period, always between 6 and 8 weeks!
    Yeah, I also wake up at night, I sleep on average 3 to 4 hours a night, which makes me very tired during the day. Now I'm trying to nap during the day sometimes!
    Oh, luckily that's going well? ???

    Usually I do fall back asleep after that, but I hate waking up in the middle of the night
    Gosh, sounds tough too having to wait out those weeks again with every pregnancy.
    I sometimes nap during the day, but lately less and less.
    All in all, I’m doing pretty well hahaha
