Germany?

[SarahDiener]

That's sad that he has to go back to work . And my DH said he didn't know they had a port either

 

[SarahDiener]

I'm taking 2x 80mg, so I wouldnt worry

Ups, I meant to say 20mL a day is what I'm currently taking. It's the DM brand liquid iron.. tastes better than Floradix at least.

How much iron is there in it though? It should have the drug amount on it somewhere.

14mg per 20mL hmm doesn't sound like enough at all.. I'll need to figure this out!

Bad luck for your husband morri, just glad you two had a couple weeks to relax! You're still bike riding at 31 weeks, by the way?! Amazing! Germans and their bikes! You must be in shape - I wouldn't make it 10mins without being completely out of breathe and over it.

 

[morri]

yes I am well used to riding a bike, but obviously the bike ride was slow (maybe 10-15km/h) and comfortable It helps though living in a flat ish part of Germany(we had a short stint towards the Elbe suburbs where it is a bit hilly and was a bit streinous but the rest is all flat)

 

[SarahDiener]

Oh man, because of not being used to it and the fact that my hip bones are already inflamed I almost died last time I road a bike. After about 30seconds I could barely sit down it was so sad. After 15 mins I was dyingggg.

 

[morri]

Well that does not sound good if your hip bones are inflamed . ouch . I have got a good saddle though, not too narrow or too wide, and it is a customised bike too (there are some shops that offer it, you just pick the parts you want your bike to have and they will complete it ) I bought it a couple of years back and it is still going great .

 

[SarahDiener]

Yeah... idk why, but most of my bones hurt when I touch them. And I already had hypermobile hips, so I think it makes them a bit inflamed.

But yeah, I've heard it's much better if you get a good saddle, and there is some "breaking in" time as well

 

[morri]

Maybe you have problems with the pubic symphysis? As when baby is pushing on the lower pelvis it can cause referred Pain to the legs.

 

[SarahDiener]

Oh I have it anyway when not pregnant I am globally hypermobile, so basically nothing really fits together well . The whole loosening of the joints in pregnancy isn't helping! Actually, the last week my knees have definitely been more 'out'.

 

[morri]

oh that can be a pain I can imagine. At school there was a guy who was hypermobile too , which he demonstrated by being able to come out of some strangle hold with his arms

 

[Saphira]

Would you recommend those gel bike seats morri? I always thought they must be a comfortable sit. What kind do you have? I feel like I'd enjoy bike riding more if my butt wasn't always hurting after a while and sore afterward!

 

[morri]

Mine is a gel saddle, but they tend to get messy once they are cut.(frost, vandalism whatever) I think they are alright. The non plus ultra however would be leather saddles with plenty of springs, they are the most comfy ones, but you shouldnt have a child seat behind it it or if there should be a cover so the kid doesnt get its fingers into them.

 

[SarahDiener]

So to those ladies that used to play (or do) wow. DH is away this week so I've been playing. Now it's maintenance I'm so bored!!!

Good to know morri! We both have mountain bikes so no chance for a child's seat on the back. I think we'll get one of those anhängers or wagens (not sure the word for them in English or German haha!) for babies/little kids next summer. The Kroozer (sp.?) brand looks good to us.

Sarah I was going to say, I recently starting WoWing it up again! Hadn't played since December! Which server are you on? Horde or Alliance? Why were you up at maitenance hours?

 

[SarahDiener]

Because I'm on US servers , so maintenance is unfortunately from 12 today till 8pm . It was different when I was in NZ, the times were good. Now being in europe the times are bad :/. I do wonder if you can real ID add people from euro servers....

 

[morri]

Oh I am also going to get one of those trailers The most known brands are Chariot(quite upmarket and has suspension) and croozer, there is also leggero but the first two are the more well known and good ones they are so versatile too. You can put them as a trainler on the bike but you can also use them as push carts with cart wheels or a big wheel for the front

I ahve just found a German site for trading and selling 2nd hand clothes btw (link on another board) called Kleiderkreisel.de sounds good so far

 

[SarahDiener]

Do lots of research before you buy Morri. Apparently they aren't tested for roadworthyness (ADAC etc) like bikes and cars and things are. So I'm not saying at all to not get one, I'm just saying make sure you get one that you can find some good info on it about it's safety.

 

[Saphira]

How can you play on U.S. servers in Germany? I wanted to but my husband said it's not possible. That makes maintenance come at an inconvenient time for sure then! The German servers start at 3AM I believe. Well, I remember when my husband played when he was on night shifts when our daughter was just born then 3AM was inconvenient! He needed the game to stay awake.
We could try it Sarah although I have no idea if it will work.

Yes, bike trailers look great! I'm wondering how a young baby could sit safely in one. There are these babyschale type seats for them but I wonder if there would be enough room for my daughter to sit too.
Thanks for the link, definitely giving it a look since Ebay isn't so worth it..

 

[dgirllamius]

You can play US servers if you buy the US version of the game. I think.

I won't be playing for a long while yet, got better things to focus on at the moment

 

[Saphira]

Lots of baby boy clothes on that site. Do they ship or is it pick up only?
