Early Signs of Pregnancy

How do you know if you're pregnant? This is a question every woman who is planning to become pregnant or trying to have a baby will ask. If you have been trying to conceive, you will be asking this question over and over again to all your family, friends and colleagues. It is definitely an anxious time and every month you are eager to know if they "symptoms" you are having are pregnancy symptoms.

So what are the early signs of pregnancy? For me, it was bloatedness or the early start of nausea or morning sickness. I felt so bloated and burped all through the day. I also had a raised temperature and thought I was sick so I went to see a doctor for medicine. I was appalled later on to discover that I was not "sick" but pregnant! I began to worry about harming the baby with the medicine I had taken for my "sickness."

Don't be like me. Read up as much as you can about Early Pregnancy Symptoms and the First Signs of Being Pregnant. You can start here.

Preventing Pregnancy Stretch Marks

This is a sponsored post.

I'm one of those unlucky women who have bad pregnancy stretch marks during and after pregnancy. Its looks a little worse during pregnancy because of pigmentation. The stretch marks are dark in colour and very noticeable. They have faded away to silvery linings now but they're still there. One of the things I didn't do was to put any creams to prevent the stretch marks. I have friends who swear that the creams help prevent any pregnancy stretch marks for them.

Now there is a product called Tummy Honey which offers solution to prevent and fade away those unsightly stretch marks. Its all natural ingredients include cocoa butter, vitamin e, shea butter, olive oil, aloe vera, wheat germ oil, avocado oil, just to name a few. It comes in butter form (for prevention), cream (for fading) and stick (for easy application). All Tummy Honey products include anti-itch ingredients to soothe your growing tummy.

Sick Again

The kids and I are sick again. Baby has runny nose and a fever. Now his sister and I have it too.

We took baby to the doctor and he was prescribed with fever, cold, cough and phlemg medicine plus a nose drop. Phew! Such a lot of medication. He cried even before we got called into the doctor's office and didn't stop till we took him out!

Later on his sister got sick too but she did not have any medication so I called up to ask the doctor if she could use baby's medication. (Its a no-no to share medication without first checking with the doctor). The doctor asked a few questions like whether she was allergic to any medication to etc, then he said ok and told me the dosage required for her age for the same medication.

My girl taking the same medication influenced baby to take his too. He didn't want to take his before that so I had to sneak it into his drink. When he saw his sister taking it, he also did. Probably thats the good thing about having both of them sick at the same time. LOL!

New garment size for the average frame busty woman

If you've been pregnant or breastfeeding then you will know what I mean when I say that you will go through several cup changes for your brassieres. Even a slim, small sized or petite woman may suddenly find that she has grown several cup sizes.

All of your clothings that used to fit your perfectly before are now suddenly tight in the chest. And when you go shopping you will find it hard to find styles suitable for your new frame. You don't fit in the big sizes nor the small ones either because you have a small or average frame but a larger top. You're neither here nor there.

Well, fret not, now there is an online store created specially for you. Eris Apparel is an online store for the average sized woman with a D-G cup sized top. Now at last, you can shop comfortably online for clothing that will fit you properly because here you will find a newly formed garment size to fit you. If you fit this description: "large busted but not full figured" you might just want to check out this store.
