Double post! Shit computer!!!

Sorry you are feeling lonely Jess, it must be really hard.

I had a good chat with OH, I don't want to make him sound worse than he is, he is full of lovely attention like if he notices my shampoo is low he will buy me some or he will put some money in my purse so I can treat myself to something. He always thinks about me but I just don't feel particularly sexy and I am really worried what the pregnancy will do to my body... But then even if he showered me with compliment i wouldn't listen!

I felt good for buying a few clothes that will make me look better. I think it's important to feel good when pregnant and I am harsh enough with myself in normal time, let alone when I look like I ate all the pies!

Pregnancy in the first 2 trimesters does make you feel so unsexy... Once you have a nice big bump out front you can start working it! Before that it just feels like flab! Glad you had a talk and that he is so lovely.

I watched Birdsong tonight... Shouldn't have watched it alone! Perfect Stranger text about 15 mins ago to tell me he'd been out to dinner tonight which is why he hadn't text. I told him I needed a hug after watching Birdsong and he's just sent the cutest response "I reckon you shouldn't watch anything like that unless I'm nearby to give you a hug then. Can't have you feeling "... So cute!

 

[Euronova]

Aww that is sweet he certainely seem to care about you!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Yeah he just ruined it by saying he isn't an emotional person!

 

[Euronova]

That is just him playing the strong comforting guy! If he is not emotional he certainly care about your emotions

 

[babyloulou]

Aww he sounds lovely Jess xx

V- you give the impression of being far, far too hard on yourself about your appearance!! I've seen your pictures and you're lovely- slim and pretty- being pregnant is not the same as being overweight or ugly If you waste your pregnancy being worried about your body then you'll be so sad afterwards when you realise how fast it all goes

 

[babyloulou]

God BnB is driving me mad tonight!! It's constantly off line!! Just when lots of people are trying to chat on here as well!!

 

[Euronova]

I have always had prob with my appearance and my weight. I was too skinny when I was a teenager and weighing myself everyday hoping to put on weight but it was just one of those phase. People used to make fun of me and ask if I had escaped from Auschwitz!
Then I got my period and started to fill up and soon the obsession was to stay slim.
My mum is also weighing herself everyday and in France your family and friends will tell you immediately if you put on weight and not in a nice way. But that is a cultural thing, women are pretty harsh.
I am not anorexic or anything and I love my food but I do have anxiety about controlling my weight and I am generally never happy with how I look.
I know it's a psychological issue cause I just have to look at pictures from a year or two ago and think... Actually I looked ok back then!
I am very excited to put on my new clothes tomorrow for my french lesson (in a nice restaurant). I quite enjoy my bump especially second part of the day when it's bigger so hopefully I will feel better when I can properly flaunt it

 

[lisaf]

Yeah, I agree with Lou about giving yourself a break. There is no way with your discipline and desire that you would be overweight if you didn't want to be.
Just a heads up though, you will NOT bounce right back after delivery... you get a horrible jelly belly that is disgusting and weird for a while.

 

[Euronova]

Yep heard about the jelly belly I do wonder how the celebrity do, I am pretty sure they all get a c-section with a tummy tuck. They all seems to have a c-section there is bound to be a reason for that!

 

[Peach Blossom]

V, I've lost over 4 stone since giving birth, I haven't looked like this for over 10 years! I still have a jelly belly though... I need to do some ab work!! I have some 10 min pilates for pregnancy workout dvds if you'd like me to send them to you. They have a post pregnancy bit. You look wonderful and you will look wonderful after the baby. Don't beat yourself up! xx

 

[TySonNMe]

Hey girls, had an awesome birthday. OH came and got me for lunch and then we went out for dinner with Jackson. We had a good conversation...we both think the relationship is in a good place and we're happy that we are not constantly at each other's throats!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Aw, Happy Birthday Marg! Glad that you and OH are getting on better. I hope it stays that way for you. xx

 

[babyloulou]

Glad you had a lovely birthday Marg Glad you and OH are getting on well too

I'm so tired today! We were up all night because of the stupid Labrador! He stole a giant block of Lurpak butter off the kitchen side last night and ate the whole thing! He was then up every hour barking to go out to be sick- which of course kept Ben up all night! Bloody dog is so tired now he has been asleep all morning so far! I feel like poking him once an hour just to get him back!!

 

[SBB]

Oh no Lou! Your dog is pretty stupid

Happy birthday marg!! glad you are sorting things and had a good time

V try not to stress. I agree the middle bit of pregnancy is hard cos you don't have a real bump. But I loved having a huge bump! I lost the weight and looked good in clothes after about 3 weeks but my belly was still squishy! It now honestly looks exactly like it did before pregnancy. (sorry!!)

Jess that's so cute of stranger! He sounds lovely. Are we calling him that cos he has a hideous name that you don't want to tell us?!
