Forums New posts
Yes...I have been experiencing bad headaches for weeks now!! Tylenol once a day with a regular sudafed has done wonders!! :happydance: I think its more the sudafed thats been helping. Ive started to show but its not that noticable yet...I really thought I would show a lot sooner it being #4 and all...but I am still in my reg. clothes just have to unbutton. And like you Junebug Ive only gained 4lbs so far but I was bigger to start with this one than I was the last one by about 15lbs....:haha:
 
This is my fourth baby and I am still in my pre-preg clothes too! But then, I am quite a bit heavier than I was with my last three :(
 
I've been showing noticeably since 11 weeks.
And omg the headaches.....I'm taking paracetamol once a day to combat them.

Yes, varicose veins are hereditary, and I'd forgotten how painful they were. Usually mine dont give me too much bother but when I'm pregnant they pound. To make it worse I also get them in my private area when pregnant and everytime I stand I get a pounding feeling....not pleasant! I had them there with number 3 but not til about week 30 but luckily they went away as soon as she was born which I'm hoping they'll do this time as well.
 
After I told my co-workers they all said I was showing about 2 weeks ago. They noticed my flat tummy was no longer flat. :dohh: I’ve had some headaches, but once I get fresh air and drink some water they usually go away. I think mine are caused by dehydration.
 
CeeDee - Keep yourself hydrated girl!!! Thats some dangerous stuff!! My last pregnancy, I was in the hospital for dehydration more than not. Water water water and pedialyte works WONDERS when your feeling really dehydrated!! :)
 
Ughhh I've been drinking over 2 litres per day and it does nothing for my head :-(
Today it's a bit better though...

AND guess what? My big bump has disappeared somewhat after some clearning of the plumbing (was backlogged abour 4 days worth :wacko:). Back to needing a belt with my size 0 pants :haha: I still prefer my maternity nylons though, no waist band cutting into me :thumbup:
 
Yay for you Datroyta Congrats!! Im due the 21st as well. Hope that all is going well and welcome :hugs:
 
Junebug, Your tiny. I was a size 6 pre-pregnancy.

Detroyta1, Congratulations and welcome!
 
I am pregnant with my 4th, due April 4th and definitely in maternity clothes...though I am still trying to squeeze into my regular clothes...yikes! lol
 
Hi Ladies :flower:

How are we all? Welcome to the newbies :hugs:

I've got midwife appointment tomorrow morning. Presume it will just be blood pressure, urine sample etc but wondering if she may try to listen to heartbeat too :shrug: We've used our doppler a few times (I did it earlier when I got it from work) and seem to find little one easily but would be nice if midwife could do it and clarify we are definitely hearing Bean!

Re maternity clothes, I'm not in them yet but did go shopping Monday and bought a fair few ready :thumbup: Other people seem to be able to notice my bump though and things are a bit tighter x
 
Hey Nat, best of luck with your midwife appt tomorrow. My next appt. is Tuesday, with my new doctor...so I'm kind of dreading it. :nope: I've never had a male obgyn before...so hopefully I can adapt.

I haven't bought any maternty clothes yet, but I need to just in case one of these days I wake up and can't fit in my normal clothes anymore :dohh: Everything still fits pretty well though, so I'm thankful for that!

I also decided to call it quits with riding my horse until the baby is born, which makes me a little :cry:....I'll definitely miss it, but I think it's for the best just in case I should have a fall.

How is everyone else doing?
 
Welcome, and congrats, to the newcomers!!

Drinkwater, I, too, am due on April 4th with my fourth child :)

Mbababy, at my Drs office there is a male OB and 2 midwives. Due to silly pregger hormones, I totally messed up my first appt date with the mw. And as I wanted to get in asap, I made the earliest appt I could. It happen to be with the male Dr. And I was very nervous at first. I always use female Drs for female related things!

Anyways, this Dr was GREAT. He was very laid back, he was making jokes, just trying to put me at ease in general.

Good luck with yours, I hope he is wonderful.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I feel kind of stupid even worrying about it....I mean...I'm not shy! But still...it's just a little.....umm...weird. Hopefully I'll get used to it!
 
Welcome drinkwater!

I've only ever seen a female ob/gyn once.....she was from America, lol. They only ever seem to be male over here and mostly foreign.
When I had my ectopic I was seeing A man named Vijay, he was indian and so brilliant with me.
When I got pregnant with number 3 I saw an American by the name of David Lewis and also a swedish guy called Dr Carlsson.
Now with number 4 I've seen another american ob/gyn but I cant remember his name.
 
Welcome newbies!

Nat I hope all goes well at your appointment.

Mbababy, Hopefully you’ll feel comfortable with your new doctor. I got some maternity clothes too and they are so much more comfortable than regular clothes. I had a few larger sizes in my closet that worked well for a while. Sorry you have to stop riding your horse, but it’s what’s best for the baby.

AFM, I have my next appointment next Friday. I’m excited. I can’t wait to hear the babies heartbeat again. I also get to schedule my next ultrasound.
 
You are welcome Mbababy :)

Ceedee, I have my scan appt next Thurs, I can't wait!!!
