Hi everyone, i'm 18 weeks pregnant with a due date of april 23. I know no one who is pregnant at the moment and everyone who has been pregnant before that i know has either been really really big before pregnancy or really really tiny. I'm tall and in between. I have only heard the heart beat 2 times and have seen a heartbeat way at the beginning of the pregnancy. Ever since the beginning i have had a small amount of discharge everyday on a pantie liner, no where else. Latly, i have been able to lay down at night and feel the bulge in my stomach but sometimes i cant feel it. IS THAT BAD??? I dunno how to feel and i'm going crazy every day. My fiancee just says to calm down but i can't. Can anyone give me any advice? ↓

no its normal completely! u no y? because your baby moves about so yeh sometimes you feel it and sometimes you dont it depends on how your baby feels...and the discharge well thats kinda normal aswell because you no you have a plug type thing dont you well its probably just that but id go and get it checked out or just take things easy! let me no how you get on x x x ↑

Kathryn--I just wanted to let you know that the dischard is totally normal..You will have it throughout your pregnancy...It is best to keep liners on hand... One of those pregnancy things! Also, the bulge in your belly...as you get bigger you will be able to feel it more often. It is a little to soon to be feeling it all the time. You will find it more fun as you get bigger. You will be able to feel more going on inside! Everyone carries there babies different.....
Good luck with everything and I hope that I helped you out a little... :) ↑

I didn't start getting a belly until 30 weeks & noone could even tell I was pg until I was 32 weeks. I'm now 36 weeks & baby is just fine & measuring right on schedule. Try not to be too paranoid. ↑

Hi, Kathryn, I am 27 weeks pregnant with my first child. It is completely normal to have the discharge during pregnancy, in fact you will get more as you get further along. As far as feeling the baby at times, that is completely normal too. The baby moves around, even though you may not even feel it yet. I am tall too and was "medium-sized" before I got pregnant. I was around 15-16 weeks pregnant when I felt my little angel kick for the first time, but it was very faint. Now she is kicking all over the place and hard. You just wait, you will love it. It is truly amazing. Take care of yourself and good luck with your pregnancy. You can take a look at my journal on babycrowd.com.....the name of it is hizprincess05. God Bless! ↑

I dont think its bad I think its perfectly normal. You cant always feel the baby but it is still there. The closer you get to your due date the more uncomfortable you will get and the more symptoms you'll have. ↑
