How are we all today?

I'm awful and can not wait for home time. Was awake most of the night coughing and was sick. Got some linctus from the chemist to help with the cough but don't think its actually doing much. I've got the opticians after work to see about changing my contact lenses as they are really irratating me just now so I won't even be able to go straight home. Am so tired

Hola from Lanzarote ladies! LJ hope you're feeling better! Hope everyone else is doing well too. So glad we got away now, it's 27 degrees and I don't think I could have handled the heat later on in pregnancy! I didn't know you could get braxton hicks so early ei

 

[lj2245]

You feeling any better KB? I had a cold a few weeks ago and it's not nice! I was drinking about 2l of fresh orange a day to get rid of it. The cough part of it lasted 2 weeks and even now I'm still wheezing.

Lucky you Arlene! I wish I was in Lanzarote. Make sure you relax and make the most of it! God only knows when we will get a holiday again! Stephen is adamant he doesn't want to travel abroad with an infant. Hopefully I can change his mind and we can get away somewhere at Easter 2014 when baby is 1!

 

[Kaybee]

Aww enjoy your holiday arlene. I would rather go abroad witn an infant than once they are mobile....too much stress when they can walk if they are as crafty as kaiden. Fearless and likes to climb anything!

I am aiming for a very early night. Am currently inhaling some menthal crystals. Lj are you feeling any better? I know i am not drinking anywhere near enough as fluid makes me feel more sick

 

[lj2245]

I'm feeling much better. The contractions are nowhere near as bad and as Stephen has had the last 2 days off I've been able to have a lie in

When Shaun was wee we had this plug in thing that had a cartridge with some kind of Vicks in it, it was awesome for clearing congestion. Could smell it all over the house haha. I can't remember the name but its designed for babies so should be ok in pregnancy. I've got pregnancy congestion just now and have had a couple of nose bleeds so have been thinking about a trip to boots for one myself hehe.

 

[CherylC3]

Aw hope u ladies start to feel better, I've had 3 days off and it's been great back to work today tho pregnancy just seems to make me so lazy lol. Xx

 

[Cherrybump]

[lj2245]

[Cherrybump]

Glad not to bad been sick in the last 2 days. how are you feeling? any better now you've taking those tablets? xx

 

[lj2245]

Yeah much better. Been able to get a half decent sleep, although the baby was wriggling about all last night and that kept me awake a bit

I made a roast for dinner Practice for Xmas lol, we had roast turkey, potatoes, sprouts, turnip, roast carrots, homemade gravy and cranberry sauce. It was awesome.

 

[Cherrybump]

Glad your feeling much better hun and those pills helped xxx

 

[arlene]

Hi ladies. How is everyone today? Got my date for my 20 week scan, it's booked for the 3rd of December. Also got my 16 week mw appointment today.

I got a call yesterday from someone at the REI asking if I wanted to take part in research on pregnant women with a bmi over 30. They wanted me to do the normal glucose test, take some tablets then have the test done again in the middle and end of my pregnancy. I said no as I don't want to take anything during my pregnancy if I don't have to! Anyone else have this? Xx

 

[lj2245]

Hello It's been very quiet here lately

I haven't had that, no, but I would have said no aswell.

I haven't felt baby move for almost 24 hours now, got myself a bit worried so was so glad I have the doppler. Heartbeat is fine but if I hadn't been able to hear that I would have been back at the hospital making another nuisance of myself!

I don't have my 16 week appointment until the 12th, when I will be 19 weeks. Lol.

 

[CherylC3]

Hey ladies I wud of said no too, had my 16 wk appointment on thurs went well, my 20 wk scan is 4 wks today

I wish I knew wot it feels like I'm not sure if I feel it yet...x

 

[arlene]

Hey ladies. I just thought it was a bit weird hey'd want you to take medication during your pregnancy if you didn't have to?

Anyways, I'm just back from the midwife and heard my babys heartbeat for the first time! She got the right spot for it right away and said everything sounded fine. Got my bounty pack as well and made an appointment for my flu jab next friday xx

 

[Kaybee]

Arlene I would of said no as well.

I don't get a 16 week check!! Just over 2 weeks until my 20 week scan though. Getting very excited

I'm still sick & full of the 'cold' - you wouldn't believe how much I am having to blow my nose I've got the dentist tonight for a check up and really not looking forward to it but I cancelled the last one so have to.

 

[CherylC3]

Arlene yeh for the heartbeat, my mw never used a Doppler on my 16 wk appointment she just felt my tummy. Xx

Kaybee sorry ur still sick and got the cold good luck with the dentist I hate going. Xxx

 

[bbymc]

Hi girls,
How you all doing? I've got my mw appt on Monday. I really hope I'll get to hear the heartbeat. I've still felt no kicks so it would be reassuring to hear the heartbeat. You all over your sickness now? I'm not, been feeling faint too and getting bad hip pain! Really not feeling like pregnancy is treating me too well lol!

We're off to another wedding this weekend. Been really looking forward to it so hoping I'm ok for it. Xx

 

[Cherrybump]

Hey girls, i think my midwife asked me to do something like that but i thought it was to do with diabetes lol as it runs in our family but ive not heard from no one. So i wont bother my butt now lol. Cant be bothered traveling all the way to hospital for the random-ness of it lol.

Im still getting morning sickness. every so many days i ok then im sick today i was sick twice and felt off all day to sucks .

Ive also been gettin head aches and super tired. think my eyes are dry to but i wear contacts so i guess ill have to wear them little less

Cant wait until my scan ive got 3 weeks excat tomorrow cant wait to find out the sex.xx
