Hi Laura when u have contractions they aren't bad if u are laying down? Or just as bad? Your belly is Huge! Very cute. Love shae munchkin. I read that it's only prelabor if contractions easier when u lay down. Can u eat and talk and all sorts of things during contractions? I bet u are close though no matter what!!

 

[Euronova]

All crossed for you Laura!!! how exciting!

I think Morning sickness is kicking in.... i have been feeling like i have the worse hangover all day... heady... and just really not hungry... fancying no food but when i do manage to eat something it seems i feel much better afterwards... i have gone off so many different food I have no idea what to eat (I seem to only fancy chicken nuggets from mac donalds...) I have even gone off chocolate completely when I normally can't spent 24h without my chic fix!!

I had to keep eating in order to feel better,.. it was crazy... i'd feel like I wanted to throw up, nothing sounded good but the instant food hit my tongue and I had that first swallow I'd feel so much better. Ended up eating lots of stuff I didn't like just because it was the only thing I had in my purse and I didn't want to be throwing up in the parking lot. Heck, I once had to eat a couple cookies I really didn't want just to tide me over while we drove 2 minutes to go pick up our pizza

And I think its too stressful to worry a ton about eating 'right' in that first trimester... its kind of a survival mode thing where you just have to eat what you need to (barring any obvious health conditions of course).

Oh veron u know eating often and actually for me, exercise and sweating with the endorphins helped. Totally feels like a hangover u are right but after I exercised I felt that little high u get which helped, plus it made me hungry!

 

[Euronova]

that's a good tip, i am really keen on exercising throughout and my gynea said i shouldn't exercise until we knew if i had an ectopic but now that we know it's fine she said i can hit the gym again.
Everytime i had been i felt so much better afterwards so i am hoping it will help when i go tomorrow
just nibbled a bit as waiting for OH to have dinner... feeling better for it I just hope i only feel nauseous... I absolutely hate throwing up!!!

 

[kcw81]

Totally. Good plan on the workout. Hopefully u can go poop everyday too so u don't get stopped up and get a bellyache. Exercising helps that too! I jogged or biked till about 2 days before my labor!

 

[Euronova]

my doctor recommended an enema and I was petrified at trying and it was the best thing ever! I sorted me out straight away! I am sure it will come back, but at least i know there is an easy solution if it gets too bad!
i hope exercise will help too!
I read online that some women take one before childbirth so they don't poop themselves...

 

[Onelildream]

kc there you are! Was wondering where you were! HI!!!

Lisa-I just got on my home comp. LOOOOVE THE SIGGY

Suz-it's just flash frozen and then dried...Saving all the nutrients. Super yummy. haha. I love it too! I'm going to try pears next.

 

[Onelildream]

Laura- I think she'll come soon!!! Sounds good!

 

[lisaf]

lol, I still have no clue what freeze dried yogurt would be like even after that explanation?

I didn't bother trying to do any kind of clear-out in advance... I assumed my body would take care of it since many women have a natural clear-out. I did puke a bunch, so I cleared out that way
I still managed to poop a little... I totally felt it and asked if I pooped but nobody would acknowledge me. I didn't care at that point, I was just kind of confirming what I felt happen.

 

[Onelildream]

I peed. Everywhere. haha. Also, didn't care. I told the DR I have to pee. He said that was the pressure I was feeling. I said nope I need to pee. He said go ahead. And I did. Right before my huge push to get him out. Good thing my dr cleaned me up first.

 

[Onelildream]

Lisa- .....think astronaut food. lol. Like freeze dried icecream

 

[Euronova]

god... pregnancy is such a dignifying time!! I am not too worried about nurses etc... i know they have seen it all... it's more my partner.... i think he will have to stay close to my head! lol.... he passes out when he gets his blood taken so just imagine! I also hate it when he gets stressed... i am much more calm in medical condition than him!

 

[lisaf]

my OH planned to stay up by my head... when we watched the birthing video in class beforehand... he turned white as a sheet and his eye bugged out in horror.
then when it was actually happening, he got totally fascinated and still says its one of the most incredible things he's seen.
I still remember the discussion back and forth between him and the nurses when I was pushing... they were pointing out the head, and mentioned that it had hair on it... he's like, 'i don't see it' they're like its right there! He says that he see's a bulge but no head... they had to point out that the bulge WAS the head I still don't think he understood what he was seeing until the head came out and he saw a face attached to the bulge

 

[Euronova]

hahaha that's crazy!!! and slightly painful to think about.... i get a bit worried sometime.... now it's in there.... it's going to have to come out one way or the other!!! eeeeekkk!!!

 

[kcw81]

Hi guys! Chell hey u quitter on the game! Ha. Thanks for the shout out. I been busy today. I am trying to feed Jimmy pureed spaghetti right now but he ain't in the mood. I wonder why labor has to be so horror movie disgusting sometimes. It should be all pretty and flowers and butterflies but instead there are ripped hoo-has and hemmeroids and poop and blood! Yay!

 

[Euronova]

I hope Laura is not reading all this... but she prob knows anyway!!.... can anyone remind me why I am doing this to myself lol.... I am not even sure I will be very maternal or that good with a baby (trying to convince me I will as I am so dotting with the pets lol)... right now all that motivate me is decorating the baby room and doing some pregnancy clothes shopping and baby stuff shopping
I really did not want to buy anything yet but I bet £1 on 2 really cute wall stickers for the baby's room and won! so that and my pregnancy journal are my first buy!
Pureed Spaguetti sounds messy

 

[kcw81]

I didn't like babies till Jimmy. And it even took awhile to comprehend him being my baby and all that. Now I am finally starting to really fall for him as he can interact and he even just learned to kiss me altho his mouth is open but he dies it on purpose now and it melts my heart of stone!
