Hi everyone I know its been a while sense I've been on here, but I wanted to let everyone know whats been going on in my life. First I started and full time school program in Aug of this year and have also been working part time, and we also just bought a house, and as some of you may know my husband and I have not been on any birth control for about two years, well I guess with us being so busy and not worrying about having a baby right this moment (not thinking it would happen), we got Pregnant!!!! I am currently 14 weeks (due May 25th) and doing well except for a increased cough from nasal congestion. We are so excited and can't wait until we get to meet the little bundle of joy :) any advice you may have would be great thank you!!!!!!

Congratulations!

Advice I would have would be to take care of your body, esp lungs. Really stick to your treatments, no short cuts, exercise regularly and if you get any sign of an infection, treat it aggressively, don't take a 'wait and see' approach. In pregnancy, women are more suseptible to infections and the infections can hit you harder and longer and may ultimately affect the baby. I see you have a bit on your plate with study, work etc, listen to your body and rest whenever you can.

Enjoy being pregnant, I loved being pregnant and all went smoothly. Good luck!
