Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

Lol. I'm glad Ryan's not like that I think we would argue loads if he was lol! Maybe now you've told him that some off us are more sick than you he might be more sympathetic? Or else think we're all putting it on too. Lol. Before now though tbh, I didn't realise morning sickness could be this bad, so my attitude was probably like Steven's. Oh how thinks change! Lol.

Ryan constantly asks me what we all chat about too lol. I never thought, but talking to you guys gives me a constant support and place to air stuff. Any stuff. But because no one knows yet, other than talking to me, he has no support. I suppose that must be hard. I wouldn't like it!

As for being thirsty, I am, very. I just thought my body was making up for the lack of fluids I was keeping down a few days ago. Hmmm.

Xx

If I made it sound like he wasn't sympathetic, it was unintended lol. He's been a total super star. He does all the housework and everything for DS, plus works full time and does overtime too because I was made redundant. The reason he asked was because he was over worried....like he thought I was maybe dying or something lol. The bleeding only made him more worried. I was managing to do some washings and load and unload the dishwasher but now I'm not allowed to even do that. Which I'm grateful for because all I want to do is sleep. He says the wrong thing A LOT and lets his Mum away with murder but I guess I could do a lot worse

On a scary note, when I was meeting DS off the school bus...I saw the folk 2 houses up from mine have their Xmas tree and decorations up. WTF???

I think I would go mad if I didn't have this wee thread lol. Where else would be talk about CM and wind and puking?

 

[bbymc]

Lol, well in that case, you've got it made lol. My house is a tip thanks to the fact that since I'm ill, both Ryan and our flatmate haven't lifted a finger! Can't really complain too much tho since he's done pretty much everything else. I'm a clean freak so it drives me crazy! Lol.

God, Xmas stuff, that a bit early lol! I'm not even thinking further ahead than 2-3 days lol, never mind Xmas! Lol xx

 

[lj2245]

Well....in my opinion the house is a tip. He's doing his best but it's just not to my standard lol! I brushed the kitchen floor and cleaned the toilet today. I couldn't ignore them any longer haha.

Have discovered something that eases my nausea.....carrot cake!

 

[lj2245]

How are you all today? You have all been very quiet so I'm guessing it's either been terrible mornings all round or you've all been great and have been making the most of it!

I have spent my morning in bed. DH working 2pm til 10pm so he's just off to work. Need to get Shaun off the school bus at 3 then he's off to his Dads for the weekend at 4. Think I might order in food and have a lazy night in bed with some crap chickflicks

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I've been working then went to my mums ive been ill all day now the sickness is better I'm so tired boo

 

[lj2245]

Are you sick during the day and ok at night? I'm the complete opposite. I'm fine until 2pm then sick the rest of the day. I end up in bed at 6pm most nights because I can't handle it lol.

 

[CherylC3]

I'm worse in the morning and thru the day it was awful this morning I was sick before I ha anything to eat it was discusting

 

[Kaybee]

I'm sick in the mornings, feel sick all day and then the last 5 days I've been sick when I get home from work too and still feel sick until I get to bed Got an appointment at the docs on Monday. Hoping for a relaxing weekend although DH is out all day tomorrow and Sunday so will need to try entertain Kaiden. Not easy when he is always so full of energy and I can hardly move.

 

[lj2245]

Is there no one you can send him to for the night/day? Get yourself some time to rest.

I was planning on trying to have another kid soon after this one so they would be close in age but there's no way I'd manage a baby with this MS. Hats off to you, I'm so glad Shaun is 7 and can do things for himself!

 

[marymoomin]

I have been working in London again and thankfully the ms went away pretty much the whole time I was there. I am exhausted now. I have one more trip next week and that's me. I hope I am ok for those 3 days.
By all accounts I don't seem to have it as bad as everyone else. I would love a bit more sleep but it's not an option with a full time job and a two year old. Good practice for 3 under 3! Arrrggghhh!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw Mary I kno your carrying 2 and we're all sicker than u I wud hav thot it wud of been the opposite. X

 

[lj2245]

I managed some toast again today. I was up most of the night with the runs Stupid IBS....stupid chinese food. Lol.

 

[CherylC3]

Ive just had my lovely crackers lol thank god for Jacobs cream crackers lol xx

 

[lj2245]

I've been craving them with cheese for a couple of days now. Need to get some from the shop!

 

[arlene]

Hi ladies. How are we all? My nausea got a bit better on thursday and friday but came back with a vengeance yesterday! I'm usually worse through the day til about 3pm. I've been trying to force myself to eat a normal dinner each night and I normally feel better after that.

I also had my booking in appointment last Tuesday which seemed to go quite well. We've decided not to get tested for Downs Syndrome at the 12 week scan, it's not going to change the way we feel about this baby. What are you ladies doing? Also I have the option of going to St John's in Livingston or the Infirmary in Edinburgh for the birth. I've heard the "service" at St John's is better but all going well I'd like a water birth and the Simpson Centre at the REI has better facilites for that. Any mummies have experience of either of these hospitals?

Hope everyone is feeling better xx

Hi girls,
Sorry you've all been feeling sicky! I managed the wedding in London. Thank god! Wasn't great on the journey down but managed the rest of the trip ok. Been feeling the best ive felt in weeks tbh. Problem is, I've taken the cyclizine religiously over the time we were away so that I would feel better. But now I don't know if I feel better cos I took the tablets or cos my MS has eased off. I'm scared to stop taking them encase I feel worse again! Nightmare! Lol!

Arlene, we have also decided not to find out about the risks of down syndrome and opted out of the test for that. As for the ERI, Ive heard that its understaffed and my sis in law didn't have great experiences of there. That said, I also have the choice between there and st john's and I still want to go to the ERI cos it's really near my house. I love the sound of the new birthing unit there too. Xx

Hey How are you all?

Is any one else suffering from insomnia? I couldn't sleep until 4am then was back up at 7am. Only managed an hours nap this afternoon!

Have discovered Original Lucozade helps the MS. I sip a tiny glass of it about lunch time and since I've been doing that it has taken the edge off.

We are going to get the non invasive tests, but only to be prepared. My sons aunt has Downs and I know how difficult her care is and she's 50!

 

[CherylC3]

Hey ladies I've managed a Sunday roast today feel so bloated tho... I always feel better on my days off and feel evil when I'm going to work lol...xx

 

[lj2245]

Mmm I haven't had a Sunday roast in aaaages. I usually make them during the week when Shaun is here, right enough

My darling husband went a 40 mile round trip to get me a KFC today. He's well in the good books!
