Hi. My due date is June 7th... I just wanted to know what has everyone done so far... I had my First Trimester screening a few weeks ago and dr..said everything looked normal ... I still haven't told anyone yet, haven't started picking names, registering anywhere or anything. It's like it feels un-real to me even though my body is going through many changes I can both see and feel..I had a miscarriage in august so I'm always in edge and worried ..Just wanted to see how everyone was doing ! Oh and anyone know a good over the counter prenatal or cheaper (good product)..I was given some samples at the office that has last me a good 3 months and I've adjusted..but it's gonna cost $70 per month to get them at the pharmacy... Any suggestions?

I had a miscarriage in March and I am now 16 weeks. I began telling everyone about a week ago. As far as prenatal vitamins I was given a prescription by my doctor and only pay the 5.00 co pay. But my last pregnancy the girl in the doctors office gave my a 9 month supply of prenatals so talk to them and see what they can do for you.

Hi..Thanks 4 responding ..My OBGYN gave me a   T least 2 months worth of free samples ..And I'm shocked yours didn't even mention it ..Maybe you u shop around for another dr...my first dr was very inconsiderate of my time..and was always in a rush..so I could never get my questions answered..but I do love my current dr..Currently , I'm no longer nauseated ..but I never really have an appetite...but I know I have to eat...so I get something .and it usually takes less than 2minutes for me to eat it...No one else seems to notice that I am ..and I'm thinking I'll tell everyone after my next appointment on Monday...

PS no recommendation on prenatal brands...my OB/GYN never even mentioned prenatals to me!!!  And I didn't think about it until it was way after the critical period for taking it.  I cannot stand my OB/GYN office.

Congrats on your pregnancy and your good first trimester screening results.  My due date is June 28 and I just got back the first screening test results which were okay (not great, but better than for my age) - I'm trying to not stress about that.  We've told our immediate family and a few friends but not extended family and friends.  I don't feel ready to tell people yet because I really don't feel pregnant yet.  Ugh!  I have a couple minor symptoms but I just don't have "that feeling."  I too had a miscarriage before.  I'm just going to wait until I FEEl more pregnant to tell the rest of my friends, etc.  Good luck to all June moms!
