The first trimester can be full of excitement, stress, nausea, worry, and a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Here are some of my must haves for any new mom-to-be!
1- The Belly Book was a great way to document early symptoms including cravings, adversions, starting weight, waist size, etc. I didn't actually write in it until I was closer to the end of my first trimester just in case something went wrong.
2- I would say be VERY careful when purchasing an at home doppler. Make sure your Doctor is okay with it, and only purchase if you'll be okay with NOT finding the heart beat. I waited until after my 9 week appointment, when the doctor was able to find it, to purchase this doppler. It helped ease any concern during that early stage of pregnancy.
3- Obviously a new mom-to-be staple! Such a great investment for all stages of pregnancy, including detailed signs and symptoms and how to adjust to being pregnant!
4- Although baby can't hear you until closer to the second trimester, this was Baby Brine's first book. Hubs has just started reading to my belly and the book is super cute and includes characters from ALL of Dr. Seuss' infamous books.
5- I didn't use this prenatal yoga DVD, but I started yoga when I was 8 weeks pregnant. My doctor said that she was okay with me starting a new workout regimen as long as I didn't put any strain on my abdomen.
6- I found these Preggie Pops after my nausea subsided, however I heard great things about these, and they're organic!
