(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

[Lara310809]

Breastfeeding is getting harder again, like it did last pregnancy. Usually my daughter will just come into bed in the morning and nurse and I'll just sleep through it. Now I'm so sore that it keeps me awake and I wait until the moment she starts to fall back to sleep and quick stop nursing. My one nipple is so sore it's turning colors!

i hear you my daughter uses me as a dummy all night though, so I'm hardly getting any sleep. Once we move house (in May) I'm sleep training her to sleep all night in her cot. Currently she sleeps there in the evenings, then comes into bed when she wakes at midnight. It can't carry on though. My nipples feel like when I first started BF her

Hugs dhbh I have spotted on and off for 2 weeks now dr said don't worry unless its heavy like a period I have my scan Tuesday and can't wait

Thanks, it seems to have mostly stopped. It was really only when I wiped, I just freak about every little thing I think my mind will be somewhat at ease once we've seen the hb.

I lost my first pregnancy in October. We just found out we're expecting again! Our first appointment is this Wednesday. My due date right now is December 10th, but I may have ovulated late. We'll see!

Congrats! Hope your appointment goes well!

I am also too bloated for jeans or any other pants, I've only been wearing dresses...

Still no ms but this cold is taking everything out of me. I'm out of breath from a flight of stairs! Sent the day walking around shopping with my mom and sisters, I don't think I've ever been so tired!

Time for a nap....which I've been doing a lot. Think it's a combo of pregnant and sick making me so sleepy.

A little over a week till my 1st u/s!! Hope this week goes by SUPER fast

I have 2 days left till my us.. its Tuesday at 1pm

 

[Starry Night]

I haven't done up my pants in about a week.

My ms is picking up too. If I remember correctly, my ms peaked around 7 weeks with my son so I'm hoping that if I survive this week it will start to get better. I know every pregnancy is different but I'm hoping it doesn't get worse. Right now I'm having a smoothie and the combination of the dairy and the iciness is really settling my stomach.

Good luck to the ladies with scans coming up!

 

[lilrojo]

My ms is terrible.. I can sit and feel nauseas like right now.. lol I feel sick if im hungry or if I eat.. its not fun so far.. but im taking it..

 

[Lara310809]

I don't know whether ie been bloated or not; yesterday I felt a lot bigger in the evening but I did pig out a bit I am a SAHM though, so I can get away wearing sweats every day. If I don't wear sweats I wear leggings, and my tops are all maternity tops anyway (long story as to why I wear maternity clothes when not preg), so everything has lots of give

Still no appointment for the midwife, or a scan. Ho hum. I anticipate to see her at 10w though; so mid may I think, and a scan at the end of may or beginning of June. Seems a long time to wait

 

[DrGomps]

Lara, my daughter uses me as a dummy too...its annoying...

my pants are getting tighter too...I just switched to my bigger pants from when I lost all the weight... But its just the stupid bloating...

anywho...do you think we should have a blinkie or banner or something to represent this group?? anyone good at making those??

 

[AmaryllisRed]

I agree... we need a banner...

My pants haven't been getting tight yet... But they are all the "stretch" type, so they're smaller in the morning and by the evening, they're just about falling down.

I've been nauseous... always when I first wake up in the morning (no puking yet!) and then throughout the day both before I eat AND after... unless I only eat a tiny bit.
And my boobs... I'm telling you... they've been growing overnight! They're like huge this morning!! I love it.

 

[AJCart]

Hello ladies. I know I'm late joining in, but better late than never. At this stage I am due 4th of December MS is on and off all day, but have been lucky enough to only vomit once so far. The exhaustion, however, is knocking me for a six. We have horses and I am used to being able to go all day around the farm. Far out, not anymore!!

 

[Laelani]

We do need a banner! Who can make one?

Welcome AJCart!

 

[lilrojo]

Welcome to the new ladies..

AFM my scan is tomorrow.. im excited and nervous.. lol

 

[Nikkinoonoo]

Hello girls :wave:
According to my LMP I am expecting my second little bundle of joy on 24th December. I know this is likely to get changed at my 12 week scan
xXx

 

[DHBH0930]

I have this picture that others have recommended using for a banner. But my internet at work doesn't allow me to use a image hosting site to make a url for it. So either I can make it when I get home or if someone else does before then thats cool

 

[diamondlove33]

Morning ladies!

Haven't been able to gert on here all wkd, super busy and my allergies have me pretty much in bed they're so bad!! So amazing to see all of these sticky babies!! I've been feeling pretty good aside from the horrible mood swings!! Have me feeling a little crazy.. it's okay though.. little waves of nausea here and there but nothing has sent me running for the bathroom or anything like that.. other than that just the soooooreeee bbs!
and BLOATING everyone is telling me i'm getting a little bump but i am pretty sure it's gas.. hahaha

What do you ladies do to cope with morning sickness? I haven't found anything that works and i've tried everything from sea bands to lemon.... i really hate throwing up so i do anything i can do avoid it. Have managed not to throw up but i've gotten pretty close! Staying full doesn't really help me since any and all food pretty much just makes me feel even more nauseous. ugh. anyone else who can't wait until 12 weeks? With my first my MS wasn't nearly as bad and magically was gone by 2nd tri.

 

[Lara310809]

Luz, I don't have MS yet, but in my previous pregnancies, the following helped me:

* eating small amounts regularly
* Sniffing root ginger - I actually carried it around with me in my bag
* Eating ginger biscuits
* Hot water with lemon
* salty crackers (in US they're referred to as Saltines), or anything bland in flavour

 

[DrGomps]

I was thinking a banner that said December presents or something.


I have been feeling awful. Am sick so stuffy nose/sore throat/pounding headache.

Also some nausea. Seems too early for MS right?? Ugh.

Luckily the experiments I am doing at work are automated. So I started the run and am now home lying Down.

 

[Suzy_Q]

Had my scan this morning and saw the heartbeat! This is my first and only so it brought tears to my eyes. I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up because you never know but for today, I'm going to enjoy the miracle inside me
