I'm also a little nervous that she'll say something about how sick I've been to our family &amp; friends - she's very chatty haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-trimester-tips-for-lo2#post-1972925 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 17:27:17 +0000 HappyBaker 1972925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure how old your daughter is, but there's a Daniel Tiger episode where Mom Tiger gets sick and that helped my daughter sort of start to understand that sometimes people get sick and need to rest / not do much. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-trimester-tips-for-lo2#post-1972904 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 17:10:54 +0000 Mrs. Pickles 1972904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stashed crackers everywhere.. at them if I got up at 3am to use the restroom.. there was more screen time I won't lie </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-trimester-tips-for-lo2#post-1972888 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 16:57:32 +0000 blackbird 1972888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just felt so shitty but E didn't understand. Will your LO understand that you don't feel well? I was able to get E to stop riding me like a horse and bouncing on my tummy but she kept wanting to do it for awhile. </p> <p>Diclegis was my BFF in the first trimester. Most amazing thing ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-trimester-tips-for-lo2#post-1972877 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 16:48:12 +0000 cait 1972877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping this because I know someone's got to have some advice! I'm having trouble dealing with mornings with LO when I'm a mix of exhausted, nauseous, and needing to eat right. this. minute. I think it will be better when I can explain to her why I'm feeling how I do and why I can't be as active as she wants, but I don't want to do that until I'm a little further along. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-trimester-tips-for-lo2#post-1970449 Thu, 04 Dec 2014 11:02:46 +0000 cait 1970449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a WAHM expecting #2 and I'm wondering what tips you might have for dealing with morning sickness, exhaustion, and all that fun stuff with a LO? Particularly ones that don't include LO knowing about the pregnancy since I don't want to tell her for a few more weeks. </p>
