***December Dreamers*** 70 babies born***

Sherri wow you've had a tough time of it I hope you heal fast and good news bubs is doing well

How is everyone else today?

I'm on my third day of hardly any sickness! I still get small waves for a few minutes a time during different points of the day but nothing I can't handle!

Had a crap nights sleep last night though, my legs and hips end up feeling 'dead' and bruised during the night, the mattress we have is pretty firm for OH's back but think with my softer muscles etc it's starting to hurt a bit boo!!

Anyone else not enjoying sleeping on their back? I tend to get acid reflux which makes me feel sick so sleep propped up, loved sleeping on my back before! I know as you get bigger you're supposed to avoid it anyway because of the pressure bubs puts on a major artery down your back.

Is anyone struggling to drink much water? I find juices are too acidic and water makes me want to hurl most of the time though that is getting better as my sickness is easing. I'm managing about a litre 1.5 litres max. I'm eating fruit and have milk with cereal a couple of times a day so assume i'm getting water content from that albeit small?

I've had pains round my right kidney which I think is from not drinking enough it won't harm the baby though will it i mean I'm still drinking water when I can?

The only one you cant drink is raspberry leaf tea. The others are all fine. They contain a tiny tiny amount of the oil so are safe to drink. Its only the pure essential oils you have to watch out for.

ah right thanks lozzy! I will try some peppermint tea then - I've heard it's good for heartburn too

Hey girls! I don't know what has happened to my stomach but the past 4 days I've got huge! I was wondering if it was bloat due to constipation but I'm still going to the toilet. Its there when I wake up so its not juist food from the day. Its literally appeared overnight and its freaking me out lol.

 

[Nessicle]

sounds like you've popped ducky!!

Mines defo popped and it's hard low down no holding it in he he x

 

[lozzy21]

Well my mam managed to find babys heartbeat, kinda. Naught baby kept moving

Mam recons its a girl because its akward

 

[Nessicle]

ha ha lozzy! That's great glad you found it!

I read that the dopplers produce a high pitch sound that we can't hear but to a baby in the womb they can hear it which makes them automatically move away from it

 

[lozzy21]

That would make sence but acording to OH, its just cos its my child
