(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

[Kaiecee]

I was told eggs can't be sunny side up not allowed uncooked yolk but I craved that sometimes in my last pregnancy and I still ate it

Also I really don't eat a lot of deli meat but if I buy it ill eat it I think it's gross warmed up

But I pretty much won't eat anything else I'm not suppose to I neve had sushi and don't plan on starting to so I'm ok there

With deli meat i was told if it comes pre-packaged it's probably okay, but not to eat the stuff straight out of the butcher block. I have no clue why that would make any difference though...

really missing sushi, and deli meat.. if it's warmed up its gross and dry, craving a medium rare prime rib..

Sushi from supermarkets is fine as it is frozen before served which killls bacteria.

In regards to the foods to not eat. I am allergic to all seafood/shellfish so all of that stuff is fine, I eat all my meats fully cooked anyway so no change there either. Caffeine I am still drinking Pepsi but only like 1 can a day if that and I don't drink coffee or anything like that so I think I'm good there. Deli meats are a bit of a 50/50 I find. My friend is a nurse and she said that if it's prepackaged (so stuff you buy at the local grocery store) is absolutely fine. I was worried about it because the other day I ate at Subway and it was sooooo good and then I was like omg I ate deli meat is this going to affect me, the answer no it's really not. Some people won't take the chances and I respect that too. I guess with foods and what not it's really up to you what you will cut back on or cut out altogether.

I'm exactly like u I drink pretty much only water so I take the occasional ginger ale or Pepsi or sprite not every day so I'm ok when it comes to caffeine

 

[BabyHopeG]

With my dd I was so strict, no cold meat, coleslaw, mayo, tea/coffee etc... I remember reading all the labels on food to ensure I could eat it! This time I feel a lot more relaxed, just very limited caffeine (I have 2 cups of tea a day, don't drink coffee & very occasionally I have fizzy) and as long as eggs are pasteurised in foods then you can eat it, I.e. mayo, coleslaw etc.

AFM - nausea is hitting me all day long, and its worse in the evenings & when I eat I don't mean to complain as would take every symptom going to have a healthy pregnancy!
Also I have a Doppler (with dd) and thought i'd give it a go yesterday and guess what i believe I heard the babies heart beat!! Totally amazing!!

Looking forward to my scan at 10am tomorrow

 

[DrGomps]

whoa...babyhopesG...how far along are you??? I heard DD at 8w6d...the earliest I have heard is 8 weeks...what kind of doppler do you have???

 

[AmaryllisRed]

My appetite is just weird. I hardly feel hungry and when I do, I eat just a tiny bit and I'm full... and sick.
I'm probably losing weight but I can't tell because DS broke the scale!

I can't give up my caffeine. I have read before what the limit is and it's high enough to allow me a couple cans of dr pepper a day. I've cut down to one, though. And there's no way I could function without it!! Pregnancy makes me soooo sleepy.

 

[DHBH0930]

Felt sick all day yesterday... Never enough to throw up, just mildly queasy the whole day. I have some amazing belches! you would think I drank a 2 liter of coke with how loud they are... Each one gives me a little bit of relief...my DH finds it hilarious

 

[Kaiecee]

I feel sick more and more everyday

Today I got all my boys with me it's gonna be a busy weekend

 

[Hoping girl 2]

Ok, so I think I have my first official symptom! got changed into my pjs today and as I was coming down the stairs (bra-less under pj) the gentle sway of my boobs them really sore It's crazy, never thought I'd be happy to have my boobs hurt!

I suppose second 'symptom' would be finding my poor, lovely DH totally irritating today. Bless, he wasn't even doing anything wrong! But every little thing he did it said really got on my nerves... Tried not to show it though! Lol

 

[Kaiecee]

I never really get sore boobs only when I'm letting my milk dry up then their pretty sore my old symptom is ms as of now

 

[brit3435]

So sick today..... it really does feel like being constantly carsick....I don't remember it being this bad with dd....yuck

 

[SugarBeth]

I've been so, so sick today. ALL day, from the moment I woke up (at 4 AM!) to now at 10:30 PM. Very little relief in between!

My boobs are killing me too, breastfeeding while pregnant is always hard on me. It feels like they're being sawed off, even though she's not using teeth or anything different from her normal latch. SO sensitive!

 

[Lara310809]

It's official; morning sickness has arrived two days already, all day and all night nausea, and I've been sick 5 times. That's almost as many times I was sick in my first pregnancy I also have horrible migraines that last for days on end. Fun times. It was my daughters birthday and I felt so disgusting, and then guilty that I wasn't enjoying the day. Thankfully family came to my rescue and helped me out

 

[Kaiecee]

Got the worse toothache this sucks

 

[Hoping girl 2]

Mmmm. So talking to SIL today (who's also expecting) and she asked me about names. Told her mine the asked hers and turns out one of her boy names is the same as mine! Quite possibly a very awkward situation here! She's three months along too so she'll have her baby before me.

If you do both end up having boys and wanting the same boy name...is it possible to do two different nicknames that sound different enough to not be alike? Or perhaps one of them could go by a middle name.

We have multiple people with the same name in my inlaws family. They all have different nicknames they go by though so it doesn't matter and there's no confusion.

 

[ready2Bmum]

Hey ladies. Brit constant car sick is the perfect way to describe it! I havent been vomiting, but from about lunch time on wards I just feel bleugh!

So there a woman I work with (who I have had major problems with in the past) who announced yesterday that she's 10 weeks pregnant with her second set of twins! She doesnt know Im pregnant yet. Im a little gutted as Il have to share my lime light with her. Everytime someone congratulates me it'll be like "oh Im pregnant too..with my second set of twins!" kinda trumps! lol. I know its silly, and i probably wouldnt be as bothered if it was someone else, i just feel a bit hard done by having to share my moment. whinge over!!
