Oh em gee! I am feeling sooooooooooo bad right now! I THOUGHT it was just pregnancy nausea late last night, but by 2am it showed itself as being one nasty virus. I've been violently ill, going at both ends, ever since (it is now after noon) feeling just so gross. The nausea, the diahorea, the vomiting. Yuck yuck yuck. Hubby had to go to work today, so I txt my mum and she drove the 1.5 hours down to come look after Monster while I feel sorry for myself on the toilet.

Bleugh!

I like to think it is easing now, but I still feel like utter hell. I hope it isn't something like listeria...


Welcome to the new BFPs!
Thank you clynn for making the Facebook group,I have sent you a friend request!

Sorry I can't remember much else I read to comment on, but I need to run again.

We had that in our house!! I managed to avoid th vomiting, but def spent some time on the toilet. Hope u feel better soon!!

I have been feeling very emotional as well, but I find myself trying to hide my tears from my family. Especially my DH because he says I'm already very sensitive. lol I cry at things that are sad and things that are really nice, but lately I've been crying about everything on TV. Today I was watching one of those judge shows (like Jude Judy) and the judge didn't let the man speak, which I didn't think was fair. Then the tears started flowng....ha ha ha

Feeling super tired, I've been more crampy and peeing like a camel this pregnancy then my last, first Tri is definately a lot of hard work being disabled and having a 15 month old to "run" around after luckily I have an amazing hubby around to help out!

Hope your all well

Eeeeeeep!!! Just found out hubby got the job he applied for, which is a step up and very very awesome. But it means moving to a whole new town over an hour away, BY CHRISTMAS!!?? Eeep!

I am soooooo excited to be moving; my mum and sister live there, as do my in laws. We adore the town, and have been dreaming of moving up there. But sheesh, in one week!!?? While I a exhausted from early pregnancy, and with a toddler!!?? Eep!

Wish us luck!

 

[princess_1991]

Omg flyingduster! Good luck, sounds like your definately going to need it!
We're waiting on a property in a village where my family live but because it's such a quaint little village no one ever moves out of there so without sounding totally morbid you kinda have to wait for someone to pop their cloggs
Once somewhere comes up we'd have little more then a few weeks to move -what a nightmare! So definately feeling your pain!

Hi there, can I join? I'm due August 22nd with #2. My first scan is on January 6th. Can't wait!!

Congrats princess_1991 & linz143! Happy Healthy 9 Months and welcome!

flyingduster - Congrats to your husband and family!! That sounds so exciting, but quick! I probably would never be able to pick up and move like that but if there's a will, there's a way ^_^ Congrats again!

 

[tori0713]

Welcome and congrats to the new BFPs!

The sore boobs question about sleeping... I sleep in a looser sports bra, and it's just the relief I need!

I'm also feeling pretty yucky with the m/s or well all day sickness. I've tried everything and the constant nausea is just always there. Other than that, cramping is starting to subside, I'm glad for that. 6 weeks tomorrow, and I already feel like this pregnancy is flying!

 

[PnkPolkaDots]

Welcome and congrats newbies!

Congrats on your scans ladies! Mine is tomorrow. So, so, SOO excited!

Boob pain: Most of the time (even before pregnancy) I wear bras without underwire. It's hard to find good, supportive bras without underwire, but they're out there! As far as sleeping, I go bra-less.

I've also felt more emotional than usual lately, but I've always been pretty emotional so it's hard to say how much is from pregnancy and how much is just me.

Flagirlie - Nausea and sleep deprivation... I get that too. Always have, it's weird. With m/s I do find that I'm worse if I get less sleep. Hmm...

Flyingduster - Yay for your husband's new job! It sounds like a crazy week for you but I'm sure you'll be much happier after everything is settled.


Whew... did I miss anything? On Saturday OH and I went to the pottery painting shop and painted an owl lantern in memory of angel baby. We'll be able to pick it up on Thursday, and can put a tea light in it which will shine through the feathers. It was an emotional day but I held together much better than I thought I would. Definitely think this pregnancy helps.

I worked today in a 1st grade classroom. One of the little girls slipped while holding a sharp pencil and impaled her palm. The poor thing was wailing and spent a good half hour with the nurse who tried to get the lead out with tweezers. She wasn't able to, so she put some ointment on it with a bandage and sent her home with a note to her parents to try soaking it. The whole thing was heart wrenching to watch!

I feel very tired and want a nap but also want to upload some more hair bows to my Etsy shop. I just started making bows last week and have to say that I'm quite addicted.

Thank you to lovecakes, silverbell and Tori for the advice on the bra. The sports bras I have right now are fitting a bit tight these days, so I will be trying a new one in a larger size. Congrats to all you ladies that have had your scans. Mine isn't until January 8th, which seems like a lifetime away. And my hubby won't be there with me . Welcome and congrats to all of the new :BFP: You all will definitely love this group. Lots of support! Congrats to FlyingDuster on your move. Wow, what a huge undertaking. But moving so close to family will be worth its weight in Gold. I'm so jealous! Our closest family members are 1500 miles away

glbaby, i sleep in a camisole with a built in shelf (basically elastic). i actually never go a day without a camisole. during the day, i wear a bra under it, but once i hit my front steps, the bra comes off and i just wear the supportive cami. i love it.

 

[flyingduster]

I should say we have been faaaiiirly certain he'd get the job for a couple of weeks now, so we have been preparing and made 'if it happens' plans with family etc, as well as started packing some stuff. So all we really have to do now is finish packing, and move! I have family here in this town too, but I am way closer to my mum and sister, so am so happy to be ACTUALLY closer to them!! And still only 1.5 hours from my friends and family here.

The plan is that we move straight up to the in laws place (they have more room for all three of us plus all the pets!) And live with them for a while. While there, we will come back down here on the weekends to clean/paint/sort this place so we can sell it, and THEN we can look at finding a new place to live.

I dunno how we'd cope if we didn't have parents to live with, cos then we'd have to try and fix this place up to sell, while living in it, with a toddler, and hubby working in another town... At least this way we can focus on just getting out of the house first, worry about cleaning and stuff later!!!

Hahaha, I had to laugh a little, but only because I'm the same way. Been waaayyyy...emotional. Crying over everything.
Been experiencing some brown jelly-like discharge. Dr appt thurs and they have me booked for a scan. Not really sure what to think. Trying not to worry. It's been on and off since last night.

I've never been a big coffee drink but have a bit of a routine where I have one in the morning and one when I get to work. Past couple of days coffee has not been tasting good at all. Anyone else going off things?

Marmite is my new favourite thing. Have always liked it but it's strong enough to get rid of the nasty taste I often have in my mouth for a bit plus with toast it fights off the nausea too.

 

[LittleMinx]

Kirin - Marmite was my thing with my son I'm an inbetweener with it, but loved it thick when pregnant

 

[28329]

I'm loving Chinese at the moment. Crispy chicken balls dipped in sweet n sour sauce. So good!

 

[LilyInk]

Today the boobs are so sore and think they have increased dramatically in size in one day! Scary. The bloating is still there and so are the moments of nausea and emotions. Been a crazy day but all worth it!!
Loving it!

 

[KirinM]

I know I'm a massive worrier but the scan yesterday has really scared me - it should've done the opposite!

The scan report says I measured 5 weeks 1 day. I accept that I could be a few days out as I don't really know when I ovulated but a week?!

My hcg levels at what I thought was 4+2 were 320. If the scan result is right that means I was only 3+2. That seems really high don't you think? Plus it means I got my first bfp at something like 7dpo!

I'm also paranoid my symptoms are calming down.

There was a definite heartbeat yesterday but again, 5+1 seems pretty early to see a heartbeat doesn't it?

My GP said the scan was likely to be more accurate at dating than hcg levels but I just don't know.

 

[ellitigg]

Kirin and 28, craving salty and sour foods are supposed to be signs of a boy I've been craving savoury food for sure but like saucy food not dry...big bowls of pasta and sauce for the win!

Ooh and congrats to the new BFPs! We have a secret facebook group that you are all welcome to join. You need to friend Cassidy Byrd on FB and she can add you.

 

[silverbell]

Hi ladies.

My scan has been brought forwards to tomorrow now (rather than Saturday). I had some red/brown spotting last night and again some brown spotting this morning along with AF cramps.

I'm so scared about tomorrow's scan now. Trying to prepare myself for bad news, but at the same time I know this can be very common and could be anything.

Keep your fingers crossed for me ladies?
