I'm pregnant. Options

[x3chrissyx3]

I was originally going to put this in health, but I'll leave it up to a mod to decide.
--------------------------------------------

I was pregnant a few times when I was in High School, thanks to being very irresponsible and such, I won't go into details. Anyway, I'm not a mother as of now because each time I was pregnant, I lost them, and I lost two very late. It was very hard, even as a kid myself to lose my child, you know?

Well, now, I'm pregnant again. I'm almost 22 years old, and I'm married, and while I don't have to be like "omg, my baby won't have a decent dad" I'm still worried that I'm going to end up losing this baby or these babies whichever it may be, again. I don't know what I can do to possibly prevent it from happening. The doctors aren't exactly sure why my other babies died or why I had the complications I did. I think if I gained weight it could help the situation a little and my body would be able to support a child more. I'm really unproportional. I'm tall, very thin and underweight, I have a large chest, and ugh, it's just a mess.

Do you know of anything that I can take or do to help me gain weight without causing harm to myself or giving me the highest cholesterol levl out there. I still want to stay healthy for the baby.

If any of you have ever been pregant before, could you tell me what I can possibly do this time around to make sure my babies and myself will be okay?

Thanks...

Hey sorry about the other babies.

I think I can help especially since my sister has a child of her own I learned a few things.

When pregnant you definately need to eat... A LOT and your cravings must be pleased as long as it's not food that is unhealthy for a baby. It's always good to do a little bit excersice to help the muscles carry the baby (but don't do torture excersice). And I guess you know this already but stay away from smoke-filled exhausted areas. Make sure none of the food or water you consume is contaminated with serious bacteria and don't bump into anything and don't fall or anything. Just eat health foods alright? And excerice...probably Yoga is good. OH AND KEEP AWAY FROM STRESS! STRESS CAN PRESSURE YOUR BABY SO DON'T PRESSURE YOURSELF! Very important. That is why first mothers really lose their babies most of the time... the pressure.
