Peanut- idk if I will talk to u before ur ultrasound tomorrow so if not, good luck and enjoy!! Im going the day after u and I can't sleep! I bet youll be up All night tell us how it went as soon as your done- yay!!! So excited for u

 

[flowermum]

Wow, I cant keep up in here lol!!

Im going to have to go back several pages and catch up!

I saw my MW today, that went really well. My iron is good so far but Ive got pills to take to KEEP it good!(my iron is always terrible when Im pregnant! have had an iron infusion at 36 weeks and blood transfusions etc fun fun!!), I will be having scans every 4 weeks from 20 weeks to check the growth due to the fact our DD2 was very tiny and her lungs were not mature for her gestation, she ended up in the NICU for 6 days. My ELSC will be between 40 and 41 weeks this time. Ummm, oh I have a scan on Tuesday the 26th! Im excited but nervous! I'll be 6 weeks 3 Days(or 4 days).

I havent had MS tooooo bad yet, but boy am I TIRED!!! more tired than I was with the others, but I guess that cos I have 3 under 5 hehe

Good luck today peanut with your scan! Can't wait to see pictures! xx

I've noticed a few of the ladies on here have the diabetes tests.....is this an American thing or do we have it here in the UK too? None of my friends/family have ever mentioned having them done and it wasn't something I was even aware of until I joined BnB.

Thanks for the info re: hormones. Hopefully the crazy ones will pass me by (not that I will be telling OH that, lol).

Still 13 days until my first scan. It really is dragging on.

I'm not looking forward to today. I have to attend a training class at work for 8 hours. I haven't told my boss that I'm pregnant and she will be in the training all day. I've had the worst dry heaves during the day and I'm afraid that will be a dead giveaway! I want to wait another five weeks before I tell her, let alone everyone else! I'm going to have to try to pass off the dry heaves as coughs! Hopefully I can hold it together!

 

[SmileyShazza]

That sucks! Your doctor is an arse too they get paid thousands to give advice like that

Did the Benadryl work?

Nope didn't do a thing I'm afraid hun looks like I've just got to ride it out. Fed up of it now

 

[lovehearts]

Hope you manage to get through today IvyEffer.

Hope everyone else is ok today.

AFM - My son still has a tummy bug. I have felt like crap today but i have no idea is its MS or the bug I havnt been sick or anything. Guess its a wait and see thing. I need to constantly eat to keep the sick feeling away.

Hi everyone.

Peanut the pain after sneezing iS roung Ligament pain and boy does it hurt


The diabetes test in the uk is usually only given if you're at risk of getting gd ie overweight.

Sorry the benadryl didn't work shazza it was worth a try.

Good luck for today ivy, hope it goes ok.


Afm I had terrible diarrhea lastnight it was horrible and woke up in the early hours with awful tummy pains. I must have ate something that didn't agree with me
I took immodium and wish I hadn't sorry for all the tmi lol

thanks for your support ladies. I am so nervous yet excited only a couple more hours to go!!! I didn't have a diabetes test I am a juvenile Diabetic, I am not overweight. Mine , unfortunately has nothing to do with being pregnant or anything I did. I found out when I was 10 years old after losing 27lbs. in a week.
But, I think the Diabetes test in the US for pregnant women isn't done til closer to 16 weeks or something.
And thank you on the pain while sneezing thing I know there will be a lot of dif. pains and weird things I haven't felt before through this great adventure, I just like to make sure that is what it is. have a great day everyone

Afternoon ladies, I will ready through the new posts in a minute. After Ive had my daily rant! Trying to fill in my green notes. For a start there is only space to include 4 children in the births section, so I have had to miss poor William off! And also there is no section for later losses- Alfie cant go in the Stillbirth section, so I have had to put him in the early loss bit. 18 weeks isnt an early loss to me . And on Eves, what the hell am I supposed to put? Age? Where child is now? I have just left it blank. Oh and to top it off had a run in with some silly old battle axe at the Drs surgery when i was picking up the notes Shes lucky she caught me on a good day

Lora - Are there any Add in pages - or extra pages where you can continue filling in your children? I have no advice on the other things - Hopefully your midwife will have answers for you

Thanks ladies, all i seem to do is moan lately No, no extra pages, I will just have to try and remember to tell the midwife. Just feel really aggitated and stressed out after trying to fill them in! xx

I'm so jealous of you UK ladies having easy access to midwives! I'd love to use a mw buy there's only one practice in my town and we've had horrible luck with them obgyn it is I suppose. My normal gyno called to discuss the results of an ultrasound I had before I got pregnant. I'm nervous now

Uh oh honey, why are you nervous?

Haha its normally bad when a doctor wants to talk to you it ends up she just wanted to tell me I'm all set to get pregnant! Lol good to know, I'll have to tell dh to get on it !

 

[miss_kseniya]

Hugs Lora

 

[Gemie]

Lora this is why the mw should be doing it, it's not always so straightforward, you don't need this stress and its bot fair to make you feel upset
I have no advice other than maybe call your mw and see what she says? And moan away lovely, that's why we're all here, for each other! X



I feel sick.... I think ms has finally kicked in dh has taken poppy to the park so I have some time alone and I just feel yucky and tired even though I slep for England last night

Good morning ladies! Tomorrow is my us!! So nervous I shouldn't have read through the forums last night because a few were about losses as I had the worst dreams that I will have DH in there with me and they say baby stopped growing or something horrible. I wake up feeling so sick and almost out of breath after dreams (NIGHTMARES) like that. Ugh I'm excited and nervous!

We've probably already covered this but, hey, whabe a loooong time to bring it up over and over haha - anyone have name ideas for their little bean yet? Even if theyre not set names yet, anyone have an idea of names for both sexes?
