Visit our "Ask the Midwife" expert page to ask our midwife your health concerns and worries, questions about your pregnancy, nutrition or whatever is on your mind that's related. You'll get real and honest answers.

Your partner is freaking out about the pregnancy! Since during the first trimester he's not going to be able to see any real evidence that a baby actually exists, it's likely to be about intangible things. Here's a list of common concerns for first time dads during the first trimester.

I'm a huge Angie Wilson fan, so I figured I'd do a quick write up.

Angella Wilson first hit the blogosphere in November 2008 with her blog “How Can I Get Pregnant” to document her trying to conceive (TTC) journey. Wilson became popular within the TTC community for her unwillingness to give into infertility. Four years prior, at 32, Wilson, was diagnosed with premature menopause and was told that she would never get pregnant. At 36, she became determined to prove her doctors wrong.

QUESTION

Dear Nutritionist,
I am 5 weeks pregnant and trying to determine a healthy diet for me and my baby. Before becoming pregnant, I was trying to lose weight and was on a 1500 calorie per day diet, losing about a pound a week. (I exercise 3-4 times per week, have a BMI of 22.5 and keep a detailed food log.)

Now that I am pregnant, I'm unsure how to adjust my diet. I no longer want to lose weight but I want to make healthy choices for both of us. I enjoy keeping a food log and like the idea of a concrete number in regards to calories to shoot for each day.

QUESTION

Dear Midwife,
My name is Ashley (22) and DH is Josh (24). I went through IVF in January and it resulted in my first pregnancy. We are so happy but I find myself sooooo scared! I have the "what ifs" you know "what if we don't see a hb?"

I had my ER 1/24 and the ET 1/29. 2/6 my first blood test was 144 and my second 2/9 was 655. No one really has explained what these numbers mean .

Tomorrow is a 3rd blood test and I just hope everything is where it should be. I have been told that we are going to do the first u/s at 7wks. Why so far away.
