What were the first things you started to do or buy when you became prego?

Re: First things to do...

I read Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy for fun. I have all the usual "What to Expect" and "Your Pg Week by Week" but I try not to read ahead with those. Other than that, right now I'm not doing much - I want to wait until we see the heartbeat. Trying to take it day by day. I think about what we should do about daycare v. being a SAHM, but I'm not looking into anything just yet.

Re: First things to do...

Nothing drastic changed...just started to read alot and subscribe to pregnancy websites. Other than that, I haven't really done anything. Right now I am in the process of starting to think about/research day care centers. I don't want to register until my 20 week sono when hopefully we will find out if it is a Chat Icon or Chat Icon

I bought books..."pregnancy week by week" and some others but that one is all I read and my favorite.

Websites I like (I have these bookmarked):
Gigglebrush - decorative stuff
Mollyanna - t shirts
Pregnancy calendar
ultrasounds
Tuni - more clothes
Celebrity baby blog
Baby center - fetal development
Sling website
Pregnancy week by week
Another pregnancy week by week

HTH!

I read as much as I could. Your Pregnancy Week by Week, The Girlfriends Guide, Belly Laughs, and I'm Pregnant I liked. I also read some of What to Expect, but it can freak you out, esp. in the beginning.

My first maternity clothing item was a pair of khaki pants--I started wearing them around 8 weeks due to a lot of bloat. They were a bit loose, but not much.

I still have not bought anything for the baby (at 23 weeks)! At first I was superstitious, and may still be a little, though now it's mostly because I've been too busy.
